the Heavenly Witnesses.
5:7–8
Not a King James invention
Latin-speaking Christians said these words came from John more than a thousand years before the KJV.
More than one witness
The Latin and Greek records differ. The case traces what survives, when it appears, and what each witness can establish.
What did Cyprian mean?
Did this early Christian writer quote a longer Bible verse? Or did he use the shorter verse to teach about Father, Son and Holy Spirit? Both views remain possible.
The question: when a modern Bible brackets or omits these words, which evidence is it following? Read the witnesses and the challenge to the KJB reading.
