  • I John 5:6-8.
  • I John 5:7- Earlier translations such as the KJV and NKJV include additional language referring to the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. We now know that these words were added by Erasmus because of outside pressure. These words made it into the Textus Receptus and thus the KJV. The truth added by these words is found in several other places in the New Testament.
