The TLV (Tree of Life Version) removes "begotten" from John 3:16.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God. In John 3:16 TLV, the TLV deny this fact by taking out the word "begotten" from their modern versions' verse of John 3:16!
But KJB is correct by keeping "begotten" in John 3:16 because Jesus is the only begotten Son of God.
Begotten means from the Father. Jesus is God the Son manifest in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16).
They took out begotten because begotten is a reference to Jesus' deity as being both from the Father and being God in the flesh. The TLV versions attack the deity of Jesus Christ by removing begotten from John 3:16.
There is a large difference between "to become the sons of God" and "the only begotten Son of God", since those who beome God's sons, by believing on the Lord Jesus, are adopted sons, while Jesus is the everlasting, only begotten Son of God and is from the Father.
Many became sons of God by believing on the name of the risen Lord Jesus Christ:
[12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
John 1:12-13
Jesus is the only BEGOTTEN Son of God and always existed forever.
1 John 4:9 KJB
[9] In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
1 John 4:14 KJB
[14] And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world
Micah 5:2 KJB
[2] But thou, Beth-lehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
If you have a TLV, discard it and get, read, and believe the words of the KJB instead.
Note: TLV stands for "Tree of Life" modern version.
