5Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen.- NIV

To them belong the patriarchs, and from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen. - ESV


Titus 2:13

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; - AV

while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, - NIV

waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, - ESV

I conclude from this and dozens of other verses, that the translators were obviously Christ-haters and corrupted the translation - after all, groups like the JW's, Mormons and others were founded using AV bibles, whereas no other cult has been founded using a modern translation[/sarcasm]

Just a speedbump in the road of an already moving thread.
