what language was the new testiment written in exactly?

Koine Greek\n\nNo Latin until St. Jerome made the Latin Vulgate translation in the 5th Century.\n\nNo evidence of any Hebrew manuscripts and Greek and hebrew are not very similar.

Yes. When the dead sea scrolls were discovered in 1947 the scholars compared the book of Isaiah to the King James Version of 1611 to see if there were ANY differences. Well, there were. Tons of differences. Lots and lots of words were different. How many? 47. That's right. Only 47 words were different. From 450 B.C. to 1947 A.D. the copying of scripture was so accurate that only 47 words were different in the book of Isaiah! And NONE of the words affected ANY meaning or theological meaning of the book. Yes. I believe the Bible is the Word of God.

It is not. Back then, each copy of the Bible had to be handwritten when they were reproduced. This means the scribes had free will to add/change anything they wanted. Also the Bible was translated from Greek and Hebrew to English. So its changed a lot, because there are no originals in existence. KJV went through the hands of countless scribes before being translated.  Even the dead sea scrolls are not the originals, just really old, close to original copies. And no, they're not in English

There is no "new" gospel.  Scripture was canonized by God's sovereignty.  Revelation 22:18 might be of interest to anyone claiming they have found "new" writings.  ("...If any man shall ADD unto these words, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book")

Interesting, but my translation says "God takes his stand in his own congregation".  (New American Standard).  We would need to discuss it with an expert in ancient hebrew to form an informed opinion, so take it easy.

I believe the content of New Testament is the revelations from Allah to us\n\nRevelation 22:7,10,13,19 \n“Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” \nHe said to me, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand"\n"I am the Alef and the Tav, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End."\n "If anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, may God take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book. "\nالأصحَاحُ الْحَادِي وَالْعِشْرُونَ\n«هَا أَنَا آتِي سَرِيعًا. طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَحْفَظُ أَقْوَالَ نُبُوَّةِ هذَا الْكِتَابِ»\nوَقَالَ لِي:«لاَ تَخْتِمْ عَلَى أَقْوَالِ نُبُوَّةِ هذَا الْكِتَابِ، لأَنَّ الْوَقْتَ قَرِيبٌ.\nأَنَا الأَلِفُ وَالْيَاءُ، الْبِدَايَةُ وَالنِّهَايَةُ، الأَوَّلُ وَالآخِرُ».\nوَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَحْذِفُ مِنْ أَقْوَالِ كِتَابِ هذِهِ النُّبُوَّةِ، يَحْذِفُ اللهُ نَصِيبَهُ مِنْ سِفْرِ الْحَيَاةِ، وَمِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، وَمِنَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي هذَا الْكِتَابِ.\nFor Christians, Don't you ever doubt the Revelation of Allah written in your Bible eventhough you are insulted for trusting it.

Wasn't it like the Bible, written by some person, but actually written by Jesus Himself?

Now that we have the dead sea scrolls, we can see how much the old testament was mistranslated.  For instance, there is one really good part, where the original text said, "you will not suffer a poisoner to live" as mistranslated into "thou shall not suffer a witch to live".  Thousands of wise women were killed because of that over the years.\n\nThe new testament was mistranslated in several places.  The original Aramaic described Mary, the alleged mother of Jesus, as a young woman.  This was changed to Virgin.  The Quran, even though they had copies of the original text, kept this mistranslation.  Now, instead of a young woman who may or may not have been married, and may or may not have had sex, is described as a Virgin. Thousands were put to death in the early years of the Christian Church and by Muslims, when others of their respective religions have pointed out that she wasn't a Virgin.\n\nSo, yes, it has.

The KJV Bible was modernised as it was written in old English and too hard for most people to understand.  I personally love this version, so there's no need to stop using it.\n\nThe term Jesus saves is true, but He saves through the repenting of sins.

The New American Bible is the version used in Catholic Churches in the United States. It might be convenient to read the same words that you hear at Mass.

Since it's the language it was originally written in, i would say Hebrew

Well yeah, kinda, but it was originally written in Hebrew, Greek, and a little Aramaic.\n\nEach time someone makes a new translation they do not use exactly the same English words. This is where most of the confusion comes from. There are some words we don't have an English word for-in that case several English words are used to get the meaning of the original. \n\nThere are some who believe in the 'double' inspiration of the KJV. This also causes problems when other translations don't exactly line up with the KJV.\n\nThere is about a little less that 1/2% discrepancy in all the text. No Biblical doctrine is affected. Any good translation id safe.\nKJV, NKJV, NIV, CSB, NAS, NASB,  all good. Some are easier to read than others, some are more word for word, some are more thought for thought.

*If* there was a Yeshua ben Nazareb (jeebus), he would have spoken Aramaic.  \n\nThe first translations of the alleged events were translated into a Greek bile - oops, bible - and that includes the pentateuch and the gnostic texts. \n\nThe fables were then translated into Latin by the early catholic crutch - oops, church - to form the Vulgate bible, but for political reasons many gnostic texts were excluded and many verses were made up and added that did not exist in the Greek version.\n\nThe German translation was motivated by politics in Germany, the King James version was motivated by politics in England, etc. etc. etc.  \n\nThe babble - oops, bible - and religion have always been the tools of political ambition.  When one controls the "truth", it's easy to control the people.

Cuniform is the oldest written language. The old testament was written in Hebrew and Chaldean (Daniel)

Go here and get the full thing, including how it was authenticated.  Sounds real to me.\nhttp://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/04/0406_060406_gospel.html

3rd or 4th-century document called "The Gospel of Judas" was launched upon an unsuspecting world yesterday by no less a biblical authority than the National Geographic magazine in Washington. Its contents were "explosive", according to Mario Roberty, president of the Swiss foundation which now owns the ancient papyrus manuscript. \n\nSo as the heat faded from the television lights at the press conference, has 2000 years of orthodox Christianity been overturned? Well, not quite. But it was all jolly interesting, for those who love that sort of thing.\n\nHalf of the 62-page codex, written in Coptic script, is devoted to an account of the final days of Jesus Christ written from the viewpoint of the man who has for two millennia been excoriated as Christ's deadly betrayer. The text begins: "The secret account of the revelation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariot three days before he celebrated Passover..."

I agree with you on this one. The Bible is God's perfect Word and it is 100% true. I use a version based on KJV called NIV and it lines up perfectly with the original scriptures.\n\nBTW Jesus fullfilled all of the prophecies in the Old Testiment. He is the Christ. Remember, the Old Testiment points toward a Christ and that is Jesus.
