You can’t make this up. I kept receiving a Quora notification on my email from some silly young woman who claims she loves Jesus, lives for Jesus and shares Jesus with others. I was mildly annoyed seeing upwards of three different bible translations used by her to give the right flavor of the day to her ongoing philosophical great insights given to her by the holy spirit. After a few days of this I stopped, took the time to study what she was saying and was shocked to find she had thousands of posts and hundreds of followers. I knew it was a complete waste of my time, but I called her out and corrected her dangerous teaching that was not only contrary to what God’s word is actually saying.
Here is my comment to this young woman:
Dear Esther thank you for your enthusiasm. Your passion for Jesus is evident. I send you this in the spirit of love. I have two major problems with your teaching. One: you use modern bible translations which are far from accurate and frankly corrupted. Only the King James Bible is God’s final authority. Research this for yourself. If you deny this then you’re seriously deceived. Two: I don’t see where you offer the true solution and biblical conclusion to your teaching which is the GOSPEL. 1 Corinthians 15:1–4 King James Bible. Finally, would you kindly email me your thoughts to interpret Galatians 1:8,9 and Galatians 2:16, 20 KJB using the King James Bible compared to your use of the Living Translation.
Here are her responses:
Many people follow me because they see the truth in my post. I may not have true solutions or conclusions. You can do that for your followers. My followers know I tell nothing but the truth. I am Jesus follower and disciple. Not one who goes into debates and arguments. I am not measuring myself with anyone. I give my answers as the holy spirit leads.
I study the word of God as if I’ll be writing professional exams. I use biblehub. Com which provides me the opportunity to read almost 20 translations and see which one I should pick… I came from the world to Christ to serve Him with my whole life. I got my revelations from the holy spirit as I read my Bible everyday. I believe in what the holy spirit tells me not man.
