Why do some still quote corrupted texts...?
even though these have been proven to be NOT of or from God. Texts as in the Textus Receptus and any translation that used these as source texts, e.g. KJV?
1 John 5:7-8
New International Version (NIV)
7 For there are three that testify: 8 the[a] Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.
Footnotes:
a. 1 John 5:8 Late manuscripts of the Vulgate testify in heaven: the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one. 8 And there are three that testify on earth: the (not found in any Greek manuscript before the fourteenth century)
1 John 5:7-8
King James Version (KJV)
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
1 John 5:7-8
New Living Translation (NLT)
7 So we have these three witnesses[a]— 8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and all three agree.

1 Timothy 3:16

16 Without question, this is the great mystery of our faith[a]:
Christ[b] was revealed in a human body
and vindicated by the Spirit.[c]
He was seen by angels
and announced to the nations.
He was believed in throughout the world
and taken to heaven in glory.
Footnotes:
3:16a Or of godliness.
3:16b Greek He who; other manuscripts read God.
3:16c Or in his spirit.
1 Timothy 3:16
King James Version (KJV)
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Revelation 1:11
King James Version (KJV)
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

I agree. But you forgot to add Mark 16:9-20
. Mark 16 from verse 9 to 20 are not found in the original manuscripts and were added on just like 1 John 5:7. Google them and you will see.

because my God is preserving His Words for eternity.
Psalms 12:6-7
6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
recent versions/translations are done to suit a groups own belief. KJV was translated and scrutinized in multiple groups in order to maintain representation of text in their original language. Other versions perverse the power of Jesus by deleting and rewording passages completely which you have shown above. What is the reason to copyright a bible? God gave it to us for free yet people try to make a quick buck even on His Words. Love of money is root of all evil.

All texts are corrupt. Everything is corrupt.
