Purething,

I would urge you to do a thorough study of the contents of the dead sea scrolls if you want further proof that scriptures still say the same thing. -Chris

"please let me know where i can pick up a copy of The One and Only True Standardized Scripture"

It is called the Septuagint--the original Scriptures of the Church written in Greek.
The New Testament was inspired by God in the Greek language and the original text is preserved to this day in the Greek Orthodox Church since there has never been a need to translate the Scriptures for the Grrek Orthodox.
The Septuagint also contains the Old Testament Scritpures which were officially translated by the ancient Hebrew Holy men and scholars around 300 B.C. The Greek version of the Old TEstament was used by the overwhelming majority of Jews from 300 B.C. to the time of Christ. In the Gospels, Jesus' quotes mostly from the Septuagint Greek version of the Old Testament.

The early Jewish Apostles unanimously used the Greek language in communicating their Holy Spirit inspired words. The early Church used the Greek versions of the Old and New Testaments almost exclusively. Some scholars believe that Matthew wrote in Aramaic--the old language of Cyrus the Great and his Persian Empire.

In short, the Greek version--the Septuagint-- of the Scriptures has alwasy been the standard of the Christian Church.
