Amen!
The NKJV is more accurate than the old, especially in Matthew 24:3.
The Greek word, "Aon," is mistranslated as world.
Jack Van Empe has a study on this, that he did on a program, a while back.
Listen to him!
He's on Youtube.
I disagree with his other doctrines, but he's correct on prophesy.
Blessings, Joshua
