Shamefully twisted Bible translations

If you know how to compare Bible translations online, and compare with the original Greek of New Testament scriptures, see how the Revised Standard Version RSV translates Romans 9:5 correctly compared with the Greek, unlike the others which push Trinitarianism into the verse: RSV “to them belong the patriarchs, and of their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ. God who is over all be blessed for ever. Amen.” The others almost all try twisting the scripture into saying that the Christ is God. Just like Peter warns in 2 Peter 3:15-16. They do so to their own destruction, wrote Peter. From the Greek we can make out that Paul, not a Trinitarian of course (*), wrote that Christ according to the flesh was born to the Jews and then Paul praises God for it, saying “God be blessed forever”. Bearing in mind the Greek was originally written all in capitals with no punctuation.

(* It wasn’t until 200 AD that the Hellenistic theological philosophies of Origen paved the way for Classical Trinitarianism.)
