The list below is a compilation of verses in which the modern versions have followed corrupted manuscripts and made drastic alterations to the printed editions of the traditionally accepted text of the New Testament. The central purpose of this list is to aid the Bible student in discerning and evaluating whether his translation is founded upon these few 'older' manuscripts and how far astray his translation goes. A simple comparison of the verses below with any modern translation will show the extent of corruption in our modern versions.  The comparison of these modern versions may be made by using a copy of the Authorized Version. Although the Authorized Version is not infallible or inerrant, it is an accurate and excellent translation which follows the Traditional or Received Text of the New Testament and was not affected by the current rage of paraphrasing. Some versions will be difficult to compare because of the modern tendency among translators to use 'dynamic equivalence' methods of translation (see the New International Version Review, Article No. 74, published by the Society).

This list of variant readings is not complete. It is designed to show the many and most serious omissions in the modern editions of the New Testament. In addition to omissions, a few instances of changes and additions are included. Unless otherwise stated, each variant listed represents an omission. It is hoped that many will see the problems with the modern texts and versions and will change back to a 'complete' edition of the New Testament. We at the Trinitarian Bible Society pray that God will be pleased to use this textual variant list to call His people back to a day of purer translations and sounder principles of translation and textual criticism.

A List of Omissions and Changes Found In Most Modern New Testaments Unless otherwise noted, the variant listed represents an omission from the Traditional Text.  An asterisk indicates some of the more serious omissions or doctrinal problems. In instances of change, the Authorized Version reading, which represents the reading of the Traditional Text, is given in comparison with the critical text reading as found in the New American Standard Version.
