The Comma Johanneum
Deliberate Corruption of the Bible For Dogmatic Purposes?
The King James Version: 1 John 5:6-8
1 John 5:6 This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 5:8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
The New Revised Standard Version: 1 John 5:6-8
1 John 5:6 This is the one who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one that testifies, for the Spirit is the truth. 5:7 There are three that testify: 5:8 the Spirit and the water and the blood, and these three agree.
