New President of the American Library Association



Emily Drabinski. "I just cannot believe that a Marxist lesbian who believes that collective power is possible to build and can be wielded for a better world is the president elect of @ALALibrary. I am so excited for what we will do together. Solidarity!"

ELCA's Presiding Bishop was promoting "diversity, equity, and inclusion" five years ago, while the LCMS-ELS-WELS Lutheran world - Thrivent funded - was fast asleep.

Letter from a Layman to Pastor James Heiser and ELDONA


Dear Pastor Jackson,

You may publish this letter I just mailed to Pastor Heiser if you think it will help in some way. I also sent Pastor Heiser your book The King James Version: Apostolic Texts, Precise Translation versus Fraudulent Texts and Heretical Translations plus your book The Path to Understanding Justification. I also mailed letters and books to Pastor Rydecki and Pastor Henson.

Dear Pastor Heiser,

I saw your presentations on ELDONA videos defending justification by faith in Christ. Wonderful!! This is what I believe. I am also writing very similar letters to your fellow pastors in ELDONA. Universal Objective justification is false as you clearly explained. Now the 2011 NIV teaches Objective justification without faith in Romans 3:22 adding 'all' (See page 34 of Pastor Gregory Jackson's book The King James Version: Apostolic Texts, Precise Translation versus Fraudulent Texts and Heretical Translations). I beg you to please use the King James Bible!!! It teaches all doctrine correctly and forcefully. The Textus Receptus, Luther's Bible, and the King James Bible were all confirmed by God the Holy Ghost during the reformation being dominant from the early 1500's to the early to mid 1900's. They are still dominant today in spite of the massive attacks of the fraudulent texts such as Nestle-Aland, Westcott-Hort, Vaticanus, Sinaticus, NIV, NKJV, ESV, RSV, NASB. True Christians are rejecting these corrupt texts and translations in favor of the reformation texts: Textus Receptus, Luther's Bible, The King James Bible. Show me one Bible translation established by the most powerful king in the world: King James of England. My dear man how much more clear does God the Holy Ghost need to be? It was only a short time earlier that another King of England burned William Tyndale at the stake who prayed "Lord, open the King of England's eyes." The Lord answered Tyndale's prayer with a King of England who established the translation and publication of God's living word in English throughout the entire world. 

I am very sad that ELDONA has rejected God's eternal word in favor of a corrupt and fraudulent translation: The New King James Version. The New King James Version destroys Holy Communion by changing Christ's Last will and Testament into a Calvinistic covenant in Holy communion. I firmly believe Christ my Testator gives me His last will and testament, bequeathing to me forgiveness of all sins and eternal life in Holy communion. Luther confirms this when he said: "So in this matter, you must above all else take heed to your heart, that you believe the words of Christ, and admit their truth, when He says to you and to all, 'This is my blood, a new testament, by which I bequeath to you forgiveness of all sins and eternal life. (Martin Luther, LW, CPH, vol. 35, pg. 88) The King James Bible says 'testament'. Luther's Bible says 'testament'. The Greek text says and means testament. Christ said Testament. That little word 'testament' must be adhered to with tenacity. Why?...because "that little word 'testament' is a short summary of all God's wonder and grace fulfilled in Christ." (Martin Luther, CPH, LW, vol. 35, pg. 84)

Hallowed by Thy Name Heavenly Father I earnestly pray,

GJ - The ESV, RSV, and NRSV Bibles come from the same source, the National Council of Churches. The NCC entities are the most pathetic Left-wing denominations in America, dedicated to the destruction of all Biblical doctrine. They make money from the three precious Bibles above.

The first NIV was as bad as the three Bibles above, but got much worse with their 2012 edition, so bad that WELS clamored to make that their #1 Bible for their very cool hymnal and Christian education material.

 Here is your Snip and Clip Greek New Testament, the illustration used by WELS to warn people! Ha!

Let the readers note that those four Bibles do not have a Greek New Testament. Instead, they have a rag-tag snip and clip collection of passages from the smallest collection of Greek New Testament sources. The KJV has just the opposite, 5,000+ witnesses to the Majority Text - going back to the Apostles.

The modernist, Wescott-Hort-Tischendorf New Testament (now called the Nestle-Aland) depends on two dubious codices - Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. Vaticanus is from the papacy, with a long history of fraudulent documents. Sinaiticus suddenly appeared at a monastery, where Tischendorf conveniently and "heroically rescued part of it" from being burned to heat the library. (Doesn't everyone burn ancient leather pages for a toasty warm fire?)

Those two codices, which do not agree with each other, are vaguely described by the modernists as the "oldest and best manuscripts of the New Testament." They are actually the newest and worst, since Vaticanus only saw the light of day in modern times, when the pope released it. Some see the magical 19th century appearance of Sinaiticus as a way to make Vaticanus seem solid and reliable. 

Voelz the Gullible chose Vaticanus for his endless, boring, and foolish commentary on St. Mark's Gospel, $130 of bilge in two volumes.

The NEW King James Version constantly cites the Westcott-Hort-Tischendorf readings, giving them credibility when none is due. 

 Eugene Nida dominated the translation business with his dynamic equivalence paraphrasing of all translations.

 This came out first in paraphrased Spanish, then received rave reviews for the English, cheered on by Nida. The four modernist translations are homage to Nida, not the original manuscripts.



Charlton Heston, In the Arena: An Autobiography, pp. 554-555


“The authors of several boring translations that have followed over the last fifty years mumble that the KJV is "difficult" filled with long words. Have a look at the difficult long words that begin the Old Testament, and end the Gospels: 'In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; darkness was upon the face of the deep.' and 'Now, of the other things which Jesus did, if they should be written every one, I suppose the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.' Shakespeare aside, there's no comparable writing in the language, as has been observed by wiser men than I.

Over the past several centuries it's been the single book in most households, an enormous force in shaping the development of the English language. Carried around the world by missionaries, it provided the base by which English is about to become the lingua franca of the world in the next century. Exploring it during this shoot [Ten Commandments] was one of the most rewarding creative experiences of my life."
