A New Bible With No Thou Shalt Nots
The following story was taken from the pages of a newspaper.
We quote it word for word, so our readers can see this shameful
story.
Thou shalt not find any 'thou shalt nots' in new Bible
translation.
The Contemporary English Version of the Bible may be the most
easy-to-read translation of the perennial bestsellers ever
published.
Other recent translations have already dumped the troublesome
thees, thous, and whithersoevers of the 17th century's King James
Version. But millions of Americans still weren't sure just what
such things as an ark and a manger were, American Bible Society
translators found.
So, in the new version, they have Noah simply building a
"boat" and Mary laying Jesus on a "bed of
hay."
Instead of beating swords into plow-shares, the new version turns
them into "rakes and shovels."
"The truth can't set you free if you can't understand
it," says one slogan developed for the new Bible
campaign by advertising giants Bozell International/ The agency
also promotes Taco Bell and American Airlines, and recently
touted dairy products in ads showing celebrities with moist milk
mustaches.

Attacking The Bible
The American Bible Soci-ety was once under the control of godly
people who believed in the Holy Word of God. This is no longer
true, and has not been so for many years. While they still print
and sell copies of the King James Version, they have been busy
promoting its destruction.
No Bible believer should support the American Bible Society in
any way. Do not give them money, and do not purchase any Bibles
or supplies from them.
This Contemporary English Version of the Bible, is a bold and
Satanic attack upon God's word.
No More "Thou Shalt Not"
The ABS evidently thinks that it is a good thing to get rid of
"thou shalt not" in the Bible. At least they seem to be
making light of them in their new release. A quick check reveals
that "thou shalt not" appears 240 times in the KJV. It
starts in Genesis 2:17, and ends in Revelation 3:3. It occurs 11
times in Exodus 20. The liberal, libertarians and free thinkers
have never liked "thou salt not." The liberals have
longed to change the Ten Commandments into the Ten Suggestions.
Please consider these classic example of "thou shalt
not." They were once memorized and believed in this country,
but they are largely relegated to the ash heap in modern America.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make
unto thee any graven image... 5
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them... 7 Thou
shalt not take the name of the
LORD thy God in vain... 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of
the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work... 13 Thou
shalt not kill. 15 Thou shalt not steal. 16 Thou shalt not bear
false
witness against thy neighbour. 17 Thou shalt not covet thy
neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife...
