Bible Note: A different view ......................................... Dear Norrie, In your post you mentioned that the Bible was translated using incorrect words (like kill instead of murder, and judge instead of condemn). I know that you mean well here, but, I think that your idea is incorrect and very dangerous to some whose faith is not strong. It could lead them to question everyting in the Bible, and cease to believe that it was authoritative in their lives. ......................................... I believe that the Bible was translated correctly, and that God has protected its accuracy and truth throughout the centuries (I would recommend reading the thread #15780). I believe that the problem is not with the words at all, but rather with how some people choose to interpret what they mean. The Bible is always right, but the same can not be said of us :) |
