the sense of continuity but different in that the risen/eternal flesh does not naturally
sin (Rom 7:18, 1 Cor 15:42-54, Phil 3:21).

Jesus, as a man, was subject to the changes of state that affect men (Heb 4:15) in
that he obviously grew up, ate, slept, was baptised, transfigured and died. He also
rose from the dead (Mark 16:6). In all this his flesh and spirit, whilst taking on our
sins as a vicarious sacrifice on the cross, did not itself sin (2 Cor 5:21, 1 Pet 2:22)
so in this, vital, sense God did not change. Despite this, and as a mystery, he also
became sin on the cross (2 Cor 5:21). He was also forsaken which was a change of
relationship affecting God, as forsaken, and effected by God as the forsaker, not a
change to or of God (Mat 27:46, Mark 15:34). This was not God changing but
rather God staying the same in that it was the sin that Jesus, God the Son, had
actually become that was rejected by God, the Godhead (2 Cor 5:21). The non-
vicarious, pre-passion, Jesus, not yet being sin for us, was not forsaken until the
cross (John 16:32). Jesus is eternally both Man and God in one Person (1 Tim
2:5). Jesus had to become sin without sinning (2 Cor 5:21, 1 Pet 2:22).

If the Word of God is to exist as a book-in-the-material in any or all languages,
then in all cases the production will be given by God and inspired by the Holy
Ghost, and as the King James Text is the Word in English there must be inspiration
involved in its translation, compilation and editing (2 Tim 3:16). The same
prerequisite applies to any modern ‘version’ or translation (2 Tim 3:16). Scripture
in 2 Timothy 3:16 refers only to that read as the Word-in-the-material, that is
perfect and inspired, in any and all vernaculars as all men of God are included not
just Greek or Hebrew speakers (2 Tim 3:17). It does not refer to any and/or all
bible versions (Rev 22:18-19). In any event the original ‘autograph’ texts in total
i.e. the 66 chapters, now lost, were written in more than one language by common
consent - at least Hebrew and Greek and possibly Aramaic in parts. Thus the Word
as a complete-text-in-the-material-in-one-language necessarily involved inspired
translation and compilation (2 Tim 3:16, Rev 22:18-19).

Parts of the written Scripture, in-the-material, have been ‘lost’, though existent,
before (2 Kings 22:8-11). The Word, as a book (Rev 22:18-19) and in-the-Spirit,
and as God, can not be lost, obviously, (Mark 13:31, Luke 21:33). The Word is
God (Psalms 138:2, John 1:1), more specifically in the Personhood and name of
Christ (Psalms 138:2, John 1:1, 14, Eph 1:21, Phil 2:9, Rev 19:11-16), one with the
Holy Ghost as part of the triune Godhead (Mat 28:19), God (Mat 28:19, Rev 19:13,
16) and Christ (John 1:14, Rev 19:13, 16). It has always been eternal (John 1:1)
and preserved of God (Psalms 12:6-7) by being God (John 1:1, 1 John 5:7). Verse
