But I imagine you have seen this Bible and know all this by now. What did you think of it?

Where does "The Holy Apostolic Bible" twist the scriptures? can you show some examples?

Isn't that the Bible that has in Acts 2:38 "Repent and be baptized everyone of you in the name of the Father, the Son, and The Holy Spirit?"

I thought you would like that.

But seriously this past Friday I was in a discussion with a Jehovah Witness who walked up to a Bible study I was conducting. He asked if he could ask questions and I said sure. To make a long story short he ended up telling me that the original New Testament in the book of Acts the titles father, son, and holy spirit in all passages where it said Jesus name. Anyway, he got all flustered when I asked him if the New World Translation was the best English translation? I then asked if the New World Translation straightens everything which was incorrect in other translations to bring it closet to the original? He replied "of course!" I then asked "then why doesn't it say father, son, and holy spirit in Acts 2:38 if that what it said in the original? He then trooped off to join his wandering away group.

I went to their website, www.apostolic-bible.com, and they had the following:

Matthew 28:18-20
28:18 And Yeshua came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, immersing them in my name:

My King James says "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost". I always assumed this to be correct, and this verse was used to explain Oneness to me since "name" was singular. I did not look it up in my Greek/English Interlinear. Perhaps I should have. At any rate, that difference was what made me think they were twisting the scriptures.

Let me know if the original manuscript really did say "in my name". That would really be something! Does anyone know what manuscript they used?

Of course the original Hebrew Manuscript really did say "In my name" There is a mountain of evidence put as proof in the book "The Original Matthew 28:19 Restored."

That's right Jenny, so much evidence that makes everyone stick with Matthew 28:19 as is.

There are plenty of people who do not stick with Matthew 28:19 as is.

So the joke is on you.
