Subject: NAS like the NWT??? I HOPE NOT! |
Bible Note: Not to or about you, sir, but about the author of the above, I would say: 1) No one claims infallibility for any translator or translation of the Bible. 2) It is an understatement to say the NWT is a corrupt work. "What most Christians don't recognize is the same corruption in their own "Christian" bibles!" Any alleged corruption (I would prefer the word error) in the NASB, NIV, NKJV, etc. is NOT the same as the corruption in the NWT. 1) There is no intent to corrupt among translators of other versions (the claims of the KJV only cult having no validity). 2) The guiding aim of the translation of the NWT is obviously to support the heresies of the organization that produced it. To say it is denomnationally biased would also be a laughable understatement. 3) The degree and amount of error (which I would not consider error, but merely honest differences of interpretation of verses which ARE NOT always cut and dried, plain and simple. If anyone thinks otherwise I would ask them, have you ever translated a formal work from one language to another? Try it and you'll see how easy it is NOT.), the quality and quantity of errors between the NWT and all the other versions put together is vastly different. Is in fact worlds apart. If the author's meaning is what we take it to be (and it may or may not be, but if it is) then the author is an idiot. |
