This is scary. What other changes have been made to the Scriptures that most of us would be unaware of, such as me? How can one then trust the Bible as we know it?

Who owns the copyright to the bible version you usually use?
who is making money $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ from the copyright?
there is only one bible (version), that is free to reproduce.
this is something to consider, if you believe that God would want His word to be freely given.
you should find this out.
as there is only one version that is by design, offered as a free copyright to whomever wants to print it, ...unlimited.
And this will never change, as it was authorized to be so.....
something else to consider is..
the only thing worse then a bad bible version is a bible corrector.
pity the fool who stands in a pulpit, on TV, or off, and continually corrects the bible with the "greek text".
this is a fool's errand..
there is no "original greek' text......that's lie #1.
So, when you hear someone saying...."well, in the ORIGINAL GREEK, it says".
No, it does not,.......... as there is no original greek text ....there are only copies of early manuscripts, and copies of greek texts.
There are in fact, 30 greek texts, and then there is Origen's Hexapla, which is Hebrew and 4 Greek.
So, all of this "text talk", is meaningless, chatter........ once you realized that God is well able to preserve His word and His Message.
Its only man who tries to manipulate, bend, twist, mangle, erase, and otherwise change the truth.
But, the light always shines out of darkness, as God will have His word exposed, worldwide.
Especially now.
What i do is use the KJV, mostly.
Its especially able to shine the light on other versions and show you just how much they were redirected and manipulated and CHANGED, doctrinally.
I have my pov about the KIV, which is very simple...
Of the english versions, it has produced more Preachers, Teachers, Evangelists, and Born Again Believers, and REVIVALS, when its used and studied..... then any other "version" if you combined them all together.
When you talk about famous revivals, or notable preachers from the past or present.......when you talk about revelation and light.., or people who have found the LORD by reading a "bible", you are nearly always talking about a KJV.
That is a fact.
The KJV has produced so much more GODLY
FRUIT, then all other "versions" combined....so, thats an easy answer.
Common sense.<
Name a famous revival, or famous Minister who has accomplished much, and 9.9 times out of 10, a KJV was the anointed spiritual fulcrum that sent them out to serve the Lord.
God bless,
