--
There is a line separating the last 12 verses of Mark from the main text.
Right under the line it says: [The two most reliable early manuscripts
do not have Mark 16:9-20] (NIV, 1978 ed.) The Jehovah's Witness "Bible"
also places the last 12 verses of Mark as an appendix of sorts.

Acts 8:37 -- COMPLETELY

makes one think that people can be baptized and saved without believing

I John 5:7 -- Vitally
important phrase COMPLETELY removed [also deleted from the Jehovah's Witness
"Bible"]. In the NIV it says,
"For there are three that testify:"
Compare the NIV reading with
the following Jehovah's Witness reading--
"For there are three witness
bearers,"
What are you NIV readers missing?
What does the real Bible say?
KJV: "For there are
three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy
Ghost: and these three are one."
This is one of the GREATEST
verses testifying of the trinity. That is why the Jehovah's Witnesses leave
it out. They do not believe in the trinity and they do not believe that
Jesus is God. Why does the NIV leave it out...? Whole books have been written
on the manuscript evidence that supports inclusion of this verse in the
Bible. Reader, do you believe in the triunity of God? If so, then this
deletion should offend you. People are playing around with the Bible and
it ain't funny.
NIV Reader: Do you have enough
confidence in the NIV to...
tell God, OUT LOUD, that these
verses do not belong in the Bible?
If not, you need to get a King
James so you can have some confidence.
