In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the very beginning. Through him all things came into existence, and without him there was nothing.
Jn. 1:1-3
Picture: Greek Page of the Gospel of St John. Greek Codex is known as Codex Sinaiticus (MeisterDrucke-971909)
“The oldest known surviving Bible, the Codex Sinaiticus, was written over 300 years after the death of Jesus and contains both the Old and New Testaments. There are nearly 15,000 differences between it and today's King James version. With Emperor Constantine's adding chunks and yanking chunks and King James' changing large chunks here and there, this is the Xtian version of God's unquestionable Truth.”

Things we know about the bible:
The Resurrection story is a known forgery.
The Nativity is a known forgery.
The Crucifixion is historically inaccurate.
None of the Gospel authors was there.
Nobody outside the nascent Xian cult noticed or wrote about Jesus
Xian apologists insist that “just because the resurrection isn’t in there doesn’t mean it didn’t happen!” without any sense of irony. The only reason they think a resurrection occurred at all is because their modern bible, based on the above forgeries, tells them so. There is literally no other source.
Worse still, why would it be missing if it was true, given it was the most important event, the entire reason he (supposedly) came? Without a resurrection, he’s just a nice Jewish preacher who died, and there’s no basis for divinity. Xianity, as it’s currently formulated, is completely beholden to the resurrection in order to provide a pathway to salvation.
The bible tells us that the bible is a forgery and Xianity is false.
God's Hidden Word?
Providential preservation is the basic belief that God sovereignly maintains the presence of his word throughout human history, ensuring that it endures for his people. The doctrine is a matter of faith, not only that the inspired Word of God exists, but that we have access to it today. Providential preservation takes into account that God’s word was revealed progressively through history, but…
Why is Acts 8:37 missing from modern translations of the Bible? Maybe this shocked you the first time you saw it, or maybe you never noticed before. We can answer this question by digging into the history of the Bible, which starts with ancient manuscripts, not English translations. There are no early copies containing Acts 8:37. Not only was it added to the New Testament later, but it continued to change over time. The question is not "who took the missing verse," but rather, what did Luke orig
The simple elegance of the Codex Sinaiticus (though I have to imagine this was a pain in the ass to read, even back when writing like this was common. At least do word breaks, gang.)
I think this is the Greek rendition of Numbers Chapter 20, where the Children of Israel yell at Moses for dragging them out into the godforsaken desert, so to shut them up he hits a stone with his magic staff and creates a waterfall. Which God then promptly curses him and his brother for, because God hates wizards.
Codex Sinaiticus is a Fake?
Recent claims suggest that Codex Sinaiticus, an ancient Greek Bible, is a forgery by Constantine von Tischendorf. However, extensive academic analysis refutes this, showing evidence that it remains a legitimate historical artifact.
Some are claiming that Codex Sinaiticus, an ancient copy of the whole Bible in Greek, is a forgery by Constantine von Tischendorf.1 The claims go around that he never had a real manuscript, much less a whole codex, and just Joseph Smithed it. They believe that sometime after he visited St. Catherine’s Monastery in Sinai, Egypt, he made the forged copies and sold them to the Russian government.…
