Another damaging and needless change is the diluting of 1st Timothy 3:16 from “God was manifest in the flesh” in the King James Bible, to “He appeared in the flesh” in the New International Version. Who is He? Please notice that there is a drastic difference in meaning between “appeared” and “manifest.” To appear simply means “to be seen”; but to manifest oneself means “to make known.” The King James Bible teaches in 1st Timothy 3:16 that God the Father was made known to the world in the fleshly human incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ. Literally, the Godhead became a living man and dwelt among us (Colossians 2:9; John 1:1-3,14 - All Scripture quotes are only from the King James Bible). The NIV is satanic, saying that Jesus (He) appeared in a body. That's what it reads. Now does that truly convey the proper meaning of the Word of God? No, it does not. The King James Bible says that GOD WAS MANIFEST (revealed) IN THE FLESH!!! By changing this verse, modern Bible butchers attack the deity of Christ.
