I think each verse should be put under the microscope, the clue has to be somewhere.It appears that the “King of Kings” translation of the Bible is not all it promises to be.
Even from a cursory reading, it is notable that
1 Timothy 3 is missing.
This is odd - why? @JoChris - any ideas?
I found an article that goes into detail about how one ancient script differ from others. For further reading it has links to other types of scripts. https://christianpublishinghouse.co/2019/11/12/alexandrian-text-type-of-greek-new-testament-manuscripts/As an aside, the long ending of Mark contains ideas that were unhelpful to Catholic doctrine:
14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
No rosaries, saints or Mary required for salvation here! The Critical texts of Codex Vaticanus and Sinaiticus both have this section missing, though with a gap in the page that would precisely accommodate it.

On the left page note that the letters have been spaced wider to fill more of the gap. Compare normal script on right hand side.
The "Critical Text" Criticized
So many times the question of the authenticity of the Bible seems to come up in these forums. From people feeling that an original, more gnostic Christianity has been whitewashed and moved away from, to others who feel that certain important texts have been removed by the powers that be. What...vigilantcitizenforums.com
In elementary school, that is called the transitive property of equality.Basic algebra:
If A = B, and B = C, then A = C.
In verse 1, the OFFICE - that is a position of power. There is no option given for solo faith. A church is assumed to be there, if there are church leaders there will be church followers.It really Is true! The King of King's "bible" omits the whole chapter 3.
Here is the proof: compare JAHtruth's 1 Timothy https://jahtruth.net/kofk-free/62.htm.
and compare 1 Timothy chapters 2-4
Therefore we can analyse what is missing... one or two verses is one thing, a whole chapter must be intentional.
3:1 This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
14 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:
15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God 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.
So what exactly did AJH find so unappealing that the man - who adds an incredible amount of personal interpretation wherever it suits him in the bible and quran - have to leave that above chapter out?!!!
That deserves to be analysed very closely.
Maths was never my strong point and it is 30+ years since I did a class. I will take your word for it.In elementary school, that is called the transitive property of equality.
It is not Algebra. Logic, maybe; but not Algebra.
You might find this interesting @JoChrisI found an article that goes into detail about how one ancient script differ from others. For further reading it has links to other types of scripts. https://christianpublishinghouse.co/2019/11/12/alexandrian-text-type-of-greek-new-testament-manuscripts/
Quite a while back I read or heard someone suggest that some omissions were in fact due to scholars finding some verses/ passages too hard to believe, too challenging etc. I can't remember if that was speculation or not though.
I never thought I would see actual omissions in AJH's "bible" other than single verses like 1John 5:7.
If you think that is bad, AJH's is much worse.
Given the multitude of posts laden with disdain for church hierarchy, it could be one likely reason for the omission of the entire chapter. Just do a search for "pastors" under his name and see what comes up. Did you check if their version of the book of Revelation is missing texts? Because there is a warning for those who tamper with that sacred text (Rev 22:18-19)It appears that the “King of Kings” translation of the Bible is not all it promises to be.

YUP nothing more then a demi god like hercules
His version of Revelation adds like 4 or 5 chapters to it.Did you check if their version of the book of Revelation is missing texts? Because there is a warning for those who tamper with that sacred text (Rev 22:18-19)
Just remember your not enlightened by the AJH to give these nuggets of truth. Shame on you for not realizing there is a chapter 25 when he says there is a 25 then there is a 25th chapter ignorant just plain ignorant for just 25$ you to can have the new king of kings book complete with what should have been written from the get go damn scribes! Can't even get it right first time had to reincarnate come back & fix it geez humans am i right?His version of Revelation adds like 4 or 5 chapters to it.
I haven't read it, but in one reply he quoted to something like revelation 25:?? and when i told him that chapter didn't exist he tried to "educate" me.
