The Message Version Exposed with Several Reasons:

1) The Message version  promotes deceptive, false New Age, Luciferian "light within you":

John 12:36 The Message/MSG:
As you have the light, believe in the light. Then the light will be within you, and shining through your lives. You'll be children of light."

However, John 12:36 KJB simply says "believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light." Since John 12:44, 46 and 12:36 KJB says that the light of the world is Jesus, we are not "the light within you" of the Message modern [per]version.

John 12:44 -46 KJB
[44] Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
[46] I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

John 12:36 KJB
While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

2)   The Message/MSG promotes New Age terms like "the Master", and  degrades "the Lord God" (KJB) into a New Age "Master" (MSG) position of "God, the Master" in Revelation   22:5.

Revelation 22:5 KJB
[5] And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

Revelation 22:5 MSG/the Message
Never again will there be any night. No one will need lamplight or sunlight. The shining of God, the Master, is all the light anyone needs. And they will rule with him age after age after age.


3) The Message version turns "preaching the word" (KJB) into "giving the Messenge of the Master Jesus"!

  Acts   11:19 -20  KJB
[19] Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.
[20] And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus. ✅💯📖

Acts 11:19-20 The Message (MSG) version
[19] Those who had been scattered by the persecution triggered by Stephen's death traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, but they were still only speaking and dealing with their fellow Jews.
[20] Then some of the men from Cyprus and Cyrene who had come to Antioch started talking to Greeks, giving them the Message of the Master Jesus.❌😰

There is evidently a massive difference between "preaching the Lord Jesus" (King James Bible) versus "giving the Message of the Master Jesus" (Message version)

Unlike the perfect, trustworthy King James Bible (KJB), the Message (MSG) version omits the below words from Acts 11:19-20 and does not want us to do two things:
1) Preach the word
2) Preaching the Lord Jesus

The King James Bible commands us to PREACH THE WORD!
  2 Timothy   4:2   KJB
[2] preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

Contary to the Message version, the King James Bible says that we preach Christ Jesus:
2 Corinthians 4:5 KJB
[5] For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

Note: MSG stands for the Message version that was made by New Ager Eugene Peterson.

If you have the Message version, please read and use the mighty King James Bible instead!
