There are almost certainly hundreds of publishers of the King James Bible in the world today and thousands of editions, and a lot of them are likely to have wildly varying paginations and font sizes, rendering citing the Bible by fucking PAGE NUMBER to be useless.
Case in point, as a former Christian and current pack rat, I have several old Bibles lying around the house, and here are the results I've got:
While I didn't read too closely these verses, it's safe to assume that none of these contain secret cures for Diabetes.
- Confirmation Bible (KJV, Thomas Nelson): Only has 636 pages.
- Grade School Bible (NIV): Jonah 1:1-2:3
- High School Bible (ASV): Joel 4:9-21
- Gideon Bible (KNJV): 1 Corinthians 3:10-4:15
- Mum's Living Bible: Mark 12:35-13:11
- Mum's Bible (KJV, Zondervan): Accounting for the break in pagination between the Old and New Testament, Page 1117 has: questions 20-9 in an FAQ, largely focusing on early publications of the Bible in the 16th century.
I also have an old Bible (KJV) that's apparently something I got for my Baptism, but I can't find it at the moment. Maybe if I find it, I'll find a different set of verses.
The point is that the writer is just a bull shit artist otherwise he would have cited the specific chapter and verse as is customary. He's selling a scam for $49. Serious people don't cite biblical references by page numbers. So as soon as you read the page number you should realize that it's just pitiful BS.
