Hebrews , then later accept it? Conversely, Rome accepted as scripture books that were later rejected. If the Catholic church really is illuminated by the Holy Spirit so that men can trust her as "God's organization", why was she so wrong about something so simple? Should not the "Holy See" have known? If the Orthodox church gave the world the Bible, being infallible, then why did the eastern churches reject or question the inspiration of Revelation, then later accept it? Conversely, the east accepted as scripture books that were later rejected. If the Orthodox church really is illuminated by the Holy Spirit so that men can trust her as "God's organization", why was she so wrong about something so simple?

" (James 2:19) This is a most unusual thing to say about the demons who do not question if God exists, having seen Him with their own eyes. Instead, this verse is saying that the demons understand that the three persons of the Trinity are in perfect unity, without difference of opinion, plan or authority. The unity between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, is what makes the demons shudder, not the fact that God exists. The verse makes no sense if the demons shudder merely because they believe in God.

Avoid the NIV: Use the KJV or the NASB instead Today there are hundreds of Bible versions available each claiming to be an accurate rendering of God's holy word. As Christians, we must be very cautious in determining what constitutes an accurate translation (Rev. 22:18f). Few decisions in life will have a stronger influence on our faith than will the selection of the Bible we will use for study and teaching. This article considers the accuracy of the New International Version (NIV). The NIV is reviewed because it is (1) the top-selling Bible today; (2) widely endorsed by modern "scholars" as being highly accurate; and (3) often the default version used in search engines and Scripture look-up sites. As an aside, I personally spent 30 years attending very liberal churches of Christ and can attest that using and memorizing the NIV proved a hindrance in abandoning some doctrinal errors.
