The King James
Bible tells us that "Jesus Christ is come in the flesh":
For many deceivers are entered into the
world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in
the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 2 John 1:7 KJV
The John Darby Version says "Jesus Christ coming in flesh":
For many deceivers have gone out into the
world, they who do not confess Jesus Christ coming in
flesh--this is the deceiver and the antichrist. 2 John 1:7 John Darby
Version
Cyrus Scofield's
marginal-note-altered KJV says "Jesus Christ coming in flesh":
For many deceivers are
hentered
into the
iworld,
who confess not
jthat Jesus
Christ is come in the flesh. This is
ka
deceiver and
kan
antichrist. 2 John 1:7 (Scofield's
"Jesus Christ coming in flesh" marginal note)
Jesus Christ of the King James Bible: is come
in
the flesh (present tense)
Jesus Christ of the John Darby Version:
coming
in
flesh (future tense)
Jesus Christ of 1917 Scofield
Study Bible:
coming in flesh
(future tense)
The King James Bible does not refer to the same
"Jesus Christ" as John Darby and Cyrus Scofield
referred to because the Christ of the KJV is come in the flesh
(present tense) and Darby and Scofield's Christ (is) coming in flesh
(future tense).
Take the Darby/Scofield Test: Are you the Deceiver and the Antichrist?
According to the King James
Version, a deceiver and an antichrist confess not that "Jesus Christ is come in the flesh."
According to Cyrus Scofield's
1917 marginal-note-altered KJV, a deceiver and an antichrist confess not
"Jesus Christ coming in flesh."
According to the John Darby Version:
the deceiver and the antichrist do not confess Jesus Christ coming in
flesh.
Christians who believe the KJV is
the word of God in English fail the
test of 2 John 1:7 as translated by John Darby and Cyrus Scofield:
King James Version readers who
have not respect of persons in judgment do
not confess Darby and Scofield's Christ (who
is) "coming in
flesh." Rather, we confess that "Jesus Christ is come in the flesh."
The Darby Version and Scofield's
Study Bible (as well virtually all modern versions) condemn as deceivers and
antichrists those who refuse to confess that Jesus Christ is yet to come in
the flesh.
Indeed, those who hold fast to Jesus Christ as revealed in the Authorized
Version without marginal notes that recommend corrupt
text alterations shall be denounced as antichrists when the One World
Religion/Government gains full control. The
only confession of "Christ" that the one world church/global
interfaith movement approves is the one Darby
marked his
Version with—the one who is coming in the flesh as a
teacher
(rather than the Master) and goes by the New Age title,
"the Christ" rather than Christ. This "coming in flesh" Christ is the New
Age World Teacher.
CLOSING COMMENTS: Some
may object to my assertion that Darby and Scofield's (and other modern versions')
"Christ" of 2 John 1:7 is actually a thinly veiled reference to Antichrist but sadly, this is
definitely the case. 2 John 1:7 refers to the first advent of Jesus Christ,
not his Second Coming.
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh and he will
come again and "shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto
his glorious body."
(See Philippians 3:21)
