Bible Note: Have you considered letting the Holy Spirit do his job? As I stated, find a version you are comfortable with. You are searching for purity of Gods Word. That Word is The Living Word. It is alive and well. It will find those who diligently seek it. KJ has been around longer than most translations. I, personally rely heavily on it, but have determined that even some of its translations are less than what I consider perfect. God inspired (breathed) His Word. Do you think He is incapiable of inspiring modern day translations? One has to have a starting place. Something on which to base a foundation. Let that be your faith that He is ALL Capiable. There are many good translations. You are looking for a "literal" translation. Like myself, you probably wouldn't understand it if you found one. Some claim to be, and are more literal than others, but only the original transcripts are perfect. Don't let Satan use the fact that there are so many translations of Gods Word, to his advantage. The disciples once asked Jesus if they should rebuke others for teaching because they were not doing so in the same manner as they. He responded, "Are they teaching against us?" When they said no, His response was "Then they are for us." |
