What is the position of the WLC Team on today's Bible?
We believe that the original manuscripts (autographs) of the Bible were free from any corruption. And that today the King James Version of the Bible still represents the inspired word of Yahuwah, and is "profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of Yahuwah may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Tim 3:16, 17).
In light of our unshakeable faith that the Bible is the word of Yahuwah, we will not overlook the undeniable corruptions that have crept into it over the centuries. We believe that it is the duty of His people in these last days to become acquainted with the verses which have been corrupted. Unincidentally, these corruptions have all been used to uphold man-made doctrines, such as the Trinity dogma. Discovering these corruptions will lead a student of the word only to confirm one's faith in the validity of true Biblical doctrines.
The following is a list of some of the blatant corruptions:
Matthew 28:19
- Corrupted: "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost."
- Original: "Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all nations in My name."

Acts 20:28
- Corrupted: "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all
the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the ekklesia of [Yahuwah], which he hath purchased with his
own blood."
- Original: "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the ekklesia of the [Master], which he hath purchased with his own blood."
Bart D. Ehrman, in his book, Misquoting Jesus, page 114 says the following: "But in Codex Alexanrinus and some other manuscripts, the text instead speaks of the 'the [ekklesia] of the [Master], which he obtained by his own blood."
1 Timothy 3:16
- Corrupted: "And without controversy great is the mystery of [piety]: [Yahuwah] was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of
angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into
glory."
- Original: "And without controversy great is the mystery of [piety]: He who was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory."
The 'He' in the above verse refers to Yahushua and not to His Father.

5:7-8

are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth,
