For any and all who have — truly — received the love of the truth (cf, 2 Thessalonians 2:8-12), below is DEFINITIVE proof that your Masoretic text-based “bibles” are corrupt, and are, thus, NOT the eternal word of God.
Compare:
Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. (Isaiah 45:11, KJV)
And:
Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and the one who formed him: “Ask me of things to come; will you command me concerning my children and the work of my hands? (Isaiah 45:11, ESV)
With:
For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, who has formed the things that are to come, Enquire of me concerning my sons, and concerning the works of my hands command me. (Isaiah 45:11, LXX, Brenton)
If you are not fully apprised of who the Holy One of Israel is, I suggest you do a comprehensive search through the whole of the word of God, and find out.
And then deeply consider that to say that He is created — rather than THE Creator — is absolute, irrefutable BLASPHEMY.
That’s what happens when you defer to the synagogue of Satan (cf, Revelation 2:9, 3:9; John 8:37-44), and lay their wickedly corrupted “Old Testament” text to heart, rather than the true preserved word of God, the Greek OT text, translated between 250 and 150 years BEFORE Jesus’ birth, as opposed to the Masoretic text which was created by Christ-hating “rabbis” about 1,200 year later — God-rejecting children of the devil who have EVER done all they could to perpetually blaspheme and mock the one true LIVING God, in service to their CREATED “god”, the devil, Satan, the serpent.
Here’s the Greek:
οτι ουτως λεγει κυριος ο θεος ο αγιος Ισραηλ ο ποιησας τα επερχομενα Ερωτησατε με περι των υιων μου και περι των θυγατερων μου και περι των εργων των χειρων μου εντειλασθε μοι. (Isaiah 45:11, LXX)
Indeed, the following nominative (subject) case construction in the Greek in which we have three parallel subjects demonstrates all you need to know — that the three parallel subjects are one and the same subject: 1) κυριος ο θεος (the Lord God), 2) ο αγιος Ισραηλ (the Holy [One] of Israel), and 3) ο ποιησας (the Maker/Creator).
In other words:
κυριος ο θεος = ο αγιος Ισραηλ = ο ποιησας
Further, please consider that Jesus Christ, in the Book of Revelation, reveals to His beloved disciple John that He — the Lord God Almighty — calls himself by two names which are the first and the last letters of the Greek language alphabet, Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending. In other words, He IS the one true God, the eternal Word.
Jesus Christ did NOT name himself by the “Hebrew” (truly Chaldean) language alphabet. He did NOT name himself the Aleph/Alef and the Tav/Taw — although, just as in Jesus’ and Paul’s day, the Judaizers are now hard at work trying to convince the world, and worldly “Christians”, that the original language of even the New Testament was “Hebrew” (Chaldean). Always remember, folks, the children of the devil are just like their father who was a liar and a murderer from the beginning (again, cf, John 8:37-44; Revelation 2:9, 3:9).
As you all, truly, should already be very well aware, the eternal Word of God chose to author His New (the final, the better) Testament in the Greek language, the lingua franca of His day. And He likewise chose to preserve His Old Testament — NOT in Hebrew nor “Hebrew” (Chaldean) — but in Greek, the very scriptures which Jesus himself and the writers of the New Testament refer back to in the Old Testament. And, so, it’s a beautiful thing that Jesus did in naming himself the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the ending:
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. (Revelation 1:8, KJV)
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. (Revelation 22:13, KJV)
And should we, but for a moment, ever forget, His eternal word — which He is — is more important, literally, than both heaven and earth:
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. (Matthew 24:35, KJV)
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. (Mark 13:31, KJV)
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. (Luke 21:33, KJV)
Then please consider just how much Jesus, the Lord God Almighty, the eternal Word of God, wants us to SEEK OUT, FIND and CHERISH His every word!
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. (Matthew 4:1-4, KJV)
I’ll ask you again, in closing — have YOU, truly, received the love of the truth? If you didn’t do so earlier, go and study — as if your eternal life depends upon it, because it might well do! — 2 Thessalonians 2:8-12.
Lord, we PRAISE you!
