CONTROVERSIES FROM THE BIBLE 1 John 5:7 is probably one of the most controversial verses in the Bible. The reason it is so controversial is that all the modern translations, except the New King James, remove this verse. But, even the NKJV has a footnote with this verse saying the it is not found in the oldest Greek manuscripts. This could cause serious doubt in the readers mind that this verse is the word of God. This verse was never controversial until the modern translations. The problem is the modern translations come from a different Greek underlining manuscript than the King James Bible. The KJV uses the Greek Textus Receptus, while the modern scholars reject this manuscript. This results in the modern translations missing the equivalent of the Book of Ephesians and changing words like only begotten Son into one and only Son. One of the missing verses is 1 John 5:7. I believe the modern translations have tampered with the very word of God, which is beyond serious. I want to take a look at the internal evidence that 1 John 5:7 is indeed the very word of God and belongs in the Bible, just as it is found in the tried and true King James Bible.
