My favorite verses are:
Ephraim 3:20
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us .

Phil 2:9 -11
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Mr. Jay! I've been reading the Bible since only God knows when! I've memorized the books of the bible even before I learnt how to read my queen premiere English well and in all these years, I've never for once seen the book of Ephraim in the bible.

As much as I know, Ephraim has a brother Manasseh, both are the sons of Joseph if I'm not wrong. Was that a mistake on your part or you have a different bible from us?

There are other books in the bible that you won't find in this current bible versions.

Really?
Like which books?
When you said bible versions, do you mean KJV, NKJV, NLT, MSG, Amplified, Revised Standard, LT, NIV etc

Because the books of the Bible are all the same no matter the version. We know that there are 66 books of the bible so the ones you are referring to are for which book?

Yep. I mean all the above books. These books aren't the only books in the bible, many were edited or removed.

OMG......
Meant Ephesians. Ephesians 3:20
I guess my stupid auto-correct changed it cos I typed Eph 3:20.
Thanks for calling my attn....and l don't have a different bible from u guys oooo. Lol

Lol.
I sense you are about taking me to Dan Brown's Da Vinci code .

Whichever book was removed simply means it isn't part of the whole.

I think l read somewhere that there are other books aside the 66books of the bible..... But I don't wanna go into that cos l don't know how true it is.

Nope. Not Dan Brown's Davinci Code. I'm talking about fact here, not fiction or telling tales by moonlight stories.

Let the picture below show you what I mean...

Lol. There is no place it is written that there is a book in the bible known as Tobias. It's like you bringing a picture of a book and telling me it was removed from the bible and expect me to take it in.

The book of Tobias is like every other book written by any other person. Since the days of my grandparents, the books of the bible have been 66. No addition, no subtraction. I'm not about to have a 67th book now, no not now.

**modified**
Something just dropped in my mind. You know Francine Rivers? The lady who wrote Redeeming love, A voice in the wind, The Atonement child and many other Christian novels. I just remembered one of her series immediately after reading the first part of this Tobias book picture you uploaded and it struck me that a few years from now, people will think the Son of Mark series or A voice in the wind is a bible extract and want to make a case for if to be added as a book in the bible.

Those stories look so real! Very real! With bible characters and all. Read a chapter of voice in the wind to understand what I mean.

LOL! My rep precedes me, so its expected. Thanks!

Course there is. That Bible chapter is taken from the Bible, Nox Version. I'm sure you know the Bible has many versions, which you readily mentioned.

I believe Francine Rivers and those who wrote the bible are good at telling stories. Some stories live on, while others don't.

Mynd doesn't care. As long as he keeps me away from the politics board, he's cool.


Yes you did, apt and precise. Quite an interesting read too I must confess.

Amicable dear , i know you like to know stuffs to enrich your knowledge bank. the church fathers met on certain periods in the past to make changes to the the bible. Also, DIFFERENT CHRISTA IN SECTS HAVE RETAINED CERTAIN BOOKS NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN THE EDITED BIBLE E.G the book of Enoch , the book of Jasher( Joshua 10: 12-13, 2 SAM 1: 18 -27),Mormon, Maccabees ETC what is the influence of Emperor Constantine on the Bible ? Have you heared about the councils of Nicea, Trent ETC where decisions concerning the Bible were taken?

Wow! I haven't read anything about Emperor Constantine yet. I'll Google search for his influence.

But those hiding or removing stuff from the Bible, I'm tempted to ask what they stand to gain. It's not as if they are defending something they said. God can defend himself and his words na, he needs no defender.

There are consequences if you continue with the search. I just felt like giving a forewarned advice.

You know I love to thread carefully.

The consequences would be for you to begin questioning your faith. I tell you, when you start that, and continue with your inquisitiveness....

They say that what you don't know, won't kill you.

The little I read about him revealed that he was a pagan and was baptized on his death bed against his wish.

It is not just about him...but about the bible. About the authors. About the veracity of the contents in the bible. About subjecting them to tests and all that. About literally interpreting the bible. About the various contradictions and some teachings that appear funny. When you put into consideration the history of the Church and so many other things, my dear, it would just be better you don't.

politics. and sometimes leaving certain info out there could be misused by a reckless public hence certain stuffs just need to be taken AWAY FROM THE PUBLIC. The public always want food , water, jobs and other basic things but those who are inquisitive enough, a few indeed in the narrow path, shall get answers to their quests.
