Joseph Smith Translation Of The KJV Bible Examined

I write this message because I love Mormons and I do not want them to be deceived any longer. My heart cries out to them in prayer, this very hour. I pray that their hearts will be opened to the truth of God, this day. With much love, I will now shed light on Joseph Smith’s crime, in altering God’s Word. Let’s take a look at the crime itself. Joseph Smith decided that he had a need to re-translate the Bible not from the original Aramaic, Greek or Hebrew language, but from the King James Version Bible itself. This is called his Joseph Smith Translation (JST). According to byu.edu, he “made a “new translation” of the Bible, using the text of the King James Version (KJV).” According to that same webpage, 3,410 verses were changed. Quoting from their site, this “consists of additions, deletions, rearrangements, and other alterations that cause it to vary not only from the KJV but from other biblical texts.” Would a prophet of God change, remove or add to God’s Word? The answer is NO. This really upsets me and should upset any Christian who believes in the purity of God’s Word. Can you believe Joseph Smith could do such a thing? God’s wrath will forever be upon him for what he has done. The Bible has warnings for anybody doing such things to God’s Word. To such people, they are ¹“found a liar” in God’s sight. ²“God shall take away his part out of the book of life.”

Because of what Joseph Smith has done, with his JST Translation of the King James Version Bible, millions of Mormons are now deceived into following false doctrines that came from this. Mormons now believe that the Bible is corrupted and Joseph’s re-translation of the King James Version Bible was necessary. To set the record straight, this is not a translation but an alteration of God’s Holy Word. A prophet of God would never do this. Only Satan would orchestrate such an act. This has caused so many innocent people to go astray. Because of this, Mormon’s now believe that “the Bible is the word of God as far as it is translated correctly”, according to their eighth article of faith. Mormons use the KJV Bible but not alone. To make sure that the verses make sense, the footnotes, for the different verses, refer back to the JST translation. If you are in this church, leave now. Joseph Smith is not in heaven, nor shall ever be. His judgement has already been set. He will forever burn in hell because of what he has done. Don’t join him. With this knowledge comes a greater judgment. By continuing to go to the LDS church, you are not saved but on a broad road to destruction. You have a choice to leave the church now and come to Christ, before time is up. You could die tomorrow. Repent and come to Jesus!

Let us pray:
Oh Lord, will You wake up the hearts of the Mormon people? Will you shine light into their eyes that they may see the deception that they are under. Lord, the truth of what Joseph Smith did to Your Holy Word, truly saddens my heart. This news needs to get out. It should be front page news. How could he just go in and change the Bible to his liking? My heart is braking, just thinking about the millions of people that are now deceived. Lord, if people truly had a zeal for the Bible, they would know that what Joseph Smith has done is a crime. I do not wish my family and friends to go to hell because of him. Will you open their ears that they may hear me out on this matter? Lord, give me time with them that I may show them the importance of the Bible and that altering it is not OK. Lord, will you do this for me? I trust in You. I know that You can do all things. I love You. Amen.
