not by works, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2;9 New International Version (NIV)

Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Ephesians 2;9 King James Version(KJV)
Mr. WoolHead focuses on these sentence fragments. There is little context and no contradiction between them, yet he corrects the "mistranslation" as follows.
It is not the product of mankind, so no one can boast.
Ephesians 2;9 Disciples of Christ Version(DOC)
"Do you believe the Bible is the inerrant Word Of God?
I would like to ask that question to WoolHead. I expect due to the numerous contradictions he has identified, he would have to say "NO!"
