Has the Bible changed...?

Theologically, Christians believe that;

1) The original manuscripts are inerrant, &

2) God has preserved everything that pertains to essential doctrine.

This makes some allowances for minor copiest errors.

Regarding the Old Testament;

Until we found the Dead Sea Scrolls, the earliest copy of the OT we had was around 900AD. The dead sea scrolls predate this text by over 1000 years and demonstrates overwhelming consistency with the later copies.

Regarding the New Testament

The time of the Apostles was around 40AD to 130AD. We have Bible manuscripts within that range (the earliest dated to 50AD). We also have other documents from that time (from Christian, Non-Christian & anti-Christian sources) that talk about the beliefs of Christians. Overall we have more than 24000 New Testament Manuscripts. So we are able to trace any unintentional or intentional alterations to the message by simple comparison.

So point 2 above, that God has preserved all essential doctrine is abundantly supported by the evidence.

nicely, you may think of so, yet right here is the version between the Quran and the Bible... The Bible underwent many diverse translations and revisions without conserving the originals in tact. The Quran has additionally surpassed by many diverse translations and revisions, even with the shown fact that people who've worked on the translations have under no circumstances altered the unique and maximum contain the unique Arabic script alongside with those translations. additionally, in spite of the fact that not many human beings use Classical Arabic at the instant, that is nonetheless a residing language. Aramaic, the language of Jesus (saws) died some time past, and we could basically guess what languages the prophets in the past him spoke. in spite of the fact that mainstream Christians won't admit to it, even many Christians agree that the Bible in use today's not the unique be attentive to God, and the Catholic church in Europe has desperate to not use it as a real account of historic activities. in spite of if the Quran hadn't pronounced that the Bible have been altered, i might nonetheless locate sufficient data today to come back to the top that it has.

Since the bishops of the Catholic Church first compiled the Bible at the end of the 4th Century, the Church has ensured that not a single word has been added, removed, or changed. Except of course in Protestantism. The true Christian Church has no control over that. Luther threw out 7 entire books of God's Holy Word that every Christian on earth had used for the previous 1,200 years. He also fully intended to trash 3 books of the New Testament, but was prevented from doing so by the vehement objection of his own followers. If he had his way, Protestants would be using an incomplete Bible of 63 books instead of the incomplete Bible of 66 books they do have. In the original and true Christian Church however, the 73 divinely inspired books of the original and complete Holy Bible are still used, exactly as they were at the very beginning.

That is one of the interesting things about the Dead Sea Scrolls (I forget exactly how old they are....somewhere between 1000 and 2000 years old).

The biblical manuscripts found (like the book of Isaiah) are virtually the same as what we have today.

So no. There are some scribal notes and a few verses that are debated, but nothing substantial has changed.

I think its kind of weird that no one is naming scriptures on the subject, Psalms 12:6&7 basically states that Jehovah, [gods personal name Psalms 83:18], will guard his word for times indefinite. Words may change but if you dig for it the truth and pure meaning remains.

Yes.

King James Version

Things have been lost and gained in translations. The best bet is to live by the basic principles of Christianity, which is to love Jesus, love yourself, and love others.

The Bible is changing as we speak. Modern science is now forcing us to re interpret the scripture in Leviticus back into the scientific text the God Yahweh originally wrote it in from the religious text mankind always thought it was.

The bible was always corrupted, but not as bad as it was to be honest, not churches teach about peace from jesus christ,a few decades they just taught about the wrath of god and put fear in ppl that questioned

The "bible" has changed many times. Every time it's translated it shifts a little.
