Paul is supposed to have uttered these words as they are recorded in the KJV, but like so many others, as I am beginning to discover, in the King James Bible, they are spelled incorrectly. Come on, I hear you say, you can’t keep changing the infallible Word of God, what will all those King James onlyist say? They will probably rent their clothes and tear their hair out in anger and disgust. Well, let them, is all I can say to that, because I’m not here to prove the infallibility of a book written around 1611 by Freemasons and biased creatures driven by Cainite-Judeo-Christian Religion agendas. I am here to seek The Truth within your pages and ignore or expose the errors placed within your pages by these satanic creatures. This, in turn, brings us back to the well-known second part of 1 Timothy 1:15, as written in the title of this article.

Okay, so what’s wrong with this verse? It is simply a tense problem; Supposedly, Paul is stating here, in this version of the KJV, categorically that he is still “the chief of sinners”-present tense, but how can that be, because in an earlier verse of 1 Timothy 1 he is saying the exact opposite:

1 Timothy 1:13 who was before (or formerly) a blasphemer (slanderer), and persecutor, and injurious (reviler or mistreater): but I obtained mercy, because I did it through ignorance in unbelief. (Italics and brackets are mine)

if paul were before these things, things he openly admitted and repented of when he was baptized and later born of God (born again), and things he no longer did, how could he still be the ‘chief of sinners’? Hey was the ‘chief of sinners’ in his former life as a Pharisee and persecutor of Christians and it was because of these evil activities that he classified himself as the leader of sinners, but they were still past events and represented his old life as Saul the Pharisee, not Paul the Messenger (apostle) of Anointed Yashua.

Now, some commentators will use all kinds of non-explanations to try to get around this present tense problem because they know something is wrong but they can’t do the ‘cowardly act’ and tell it what it is: a vile corruption on the pages of the King James Bible. They then use the excuse that since this letter is a personal letter to Timothy, Timothy having been personally trained and taught by Paul, would have understood what Paul was saying, even though it is present tense, but is this true? No, not a thousand times. How and why is it not true? It is not true, because it is a blatant lie. For Paul to say that he is still the ‘chief of sinners’ would have been a lie, and Timothy would have known it, now, did Paul lie and lie to one of his closest brothers in The Faith? Of course not, so this statement has to have been modified, but by whom? Well, we know, don’t we, the same evil people that said that Anointed Yashua (The Lord Jesus Christ) died on a Friday afternoon and rose again early on Sunday morning and said that it constituted three days and three nights. (See my series of articles on “How did three days and three nights on Good Friday afternoon turn into Sunday morning?”) The same people who said the man hanging on the cross next to Anointed Yashua (The Lord Jesus Christ) would, that day, to be with the Lord in paradise. (See my article “Truly I Tell You, Today You Will Be With Me In Paradise.” Again, Oh Seriously, Is That Right?).

If we then add to everything I’ve said above, the additions of spurious verses like 1 John 5:7-8, Matthew 28:19, and the second half of Romans 8:1, we can begin to see a pattern here, a pattern of the Cainite-Judeo-Christian religious agenda. This agenda was always an agenda of: “causing as much confusion as possible and at the same time making liars out of the important men of the New Testament, including the Anointed Yashua (The Lord Jesus Christ) Himself.” (See my articles: “Ogre Gods – The Trinitarian Ogre God – Parts 2-4”; “Should Christians Be Baptized In The Name Of The Lord Jesus Christ Only? – Part 1” and “The Good News Of 2000 Years Or The Modern News Of The 21st Century: Which Do You Think?”)

Going back to our study of 1 Timothy 1:15, we now know that the translators corrupted this verse and we also know the reasons why and to finish this article, let’s see how subtle this change was. In Strong’s Concordance it is stated that the word ‘am’ in Greek is ‘eimi’

G1510 eimi – i Mee’- first person singular present indicative; a prolonged form of a primary and defective verb; Yo exist (used only when it is emphatic): – I am, I have been, X is me, I was.

I am not koine Greek scholar, but then I don’t need to be, for the correct alternatives for this word. ‘eimi’ they are listed right there, that is, ‘I have been’ or ‘I was’. This makes it obvious what happened, the translators said “we’ll just insert a present tense version of this word here or else it will sound like Paul is sinless under the Glorious Grace of Anointed Yashua and we don’t want that, there will be no demand for our ‘inerrant’ Bibles from the counterfeit church!!

While on the subject of Bible translations, there are at least two Bibles that I have found that translate this verse correctly; The Living Bible and The New Living Translation where both state, and I quote:

(TLB) 1 Tim 1:15 How true it is, and how I long to let everyone know it, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners – and I was The greatest of all.

(NLT) 1 Timothy 1:15 This is a true saying, and everyone should believe it: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners and I was the worst of all.

As a final point, I wish to challenge this Holy Scripture as written in the KJV with evidence from other parts of Holy Scripture, but we must first reinforce Paul’s spiritual condition if we are to believe what the KJV says. Paul is saying: “I am the first of sinners” and at the same time being Born of God (Born Again). This in itself is impossible, it is a total contradiction, because we cannot be Born of God (Born Again) and sinners at the same time. (See my article “Redeemed or Redeemed Sinner, Which Is It?”) How do we know this? Easy, because sinners cannot inherit the Kingdom of God:

1 Cor 6:9-10 (KJV) Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor those who abuse themselves with men, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor thieves, (nor chiefs of sinners) will inherit the Kingdom of God. (mine in parentheses)

Now there it is in living Biblical proof and if Paul was still the ‘chief of sinners’ – present tense, there is no way he would enter the Kingdom of God – no way, it can’t happen. No sinner can do that, whether he is the chief of sinners or a common sinner. This proves beyond a doubt that 1 Timothy 1:15 was corrupted and changed from the past tense to the present tense and thus made Paul a liar.

When these translators appear before Anointed Yashua, I will be very glad not to be in their shoes.
