1 Timothy 3:16


 
 
In KJV it says. "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".
 
Ordinary Trinitarians continue to use this rendition of their God become man concept.They are unaware or if they are aware refuses to accept that Scholars, trinitarians among them,have long discarded this rendering in favor of a correct one. The word 'God' was replaced by the correct word 'who'in the new bible translations when they disccovered that the former was an alteration of the Greek manuscript (ref. John James Wetstein (1693-1754)). Respected Textual critic and Greek scholar Bruce Metzger testifies on this in his Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament:
 
"No uncial (in the first hand) earlier than the eighth or ninth century . . . supports qeoV; all ancient versions presuppose  or and no patristic writer prior to the last third of the fourth century testifies to the reading qeoV."
 
Henceforth almost all new biblical translations(trinitarians included) has in their main or in their footnotes the correct phrase "WHO was manifested in the flesh" instead. (RNKJV) And without controversy great is the mystery of reverence: who 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. (Diaglott) A pillar and basis of the truth and confessedly great is the of the piety secret. Who was manifested in flesh, was justified in spirit, was seen by messengers, was proclaimed among nations, was believed among a world, was taken up in glory. Finally this quote out of the American Standard Version:
 
 
"The word God, in place of He who, rest on no sufficient ancient evidence. Some ancient authorities read which." (see the NRSV, RSV, ASV, NASB, NIV, NWT, BBE, Moffet, Rotherham, etc.)
Even learned Trinitarians have recognized this, and have discouraged this as proof of the Trinity.
