Bible Question:
In the left side ou our screens is a TAKE A SURVEY. This survey has caused me to wonder about the many english translations there are for us today. I went to a Christian Book store last week, and There was only a couple of NKJV, and a few more NASB updated, lots of TNIV and NRSV and Living Bibles. Most all Bibles were in bonded leather or "leather like" These POP easy to read third grade level Bibles are being bought by adults! Is this what Pastors are teaching from now? After having the NASB updated I don't as often read my NIV, as I find it misses some words I wonder how they came up with the word. Has amy one else found this? Why do you think publishers have quit make Leather Bibles covers in quality translations? Thank you for your response. agape, Justme |
Bible Answer: Hello! Justme, I find that there are many quality bibles available but if you leather bond in a particular bible you can get it, if it's not in the store they can order it but you will pay. As far as there being many translation their are but everyone is not at the same spiritual maturity or they can not comprehend the same read Prov 4:7 and Mark 4:11. It's not the wording but the message,I use KJV because it is beautifully written and the words become alive to me and I can hear Jesus speak to me through his testimony but I also use the Holy Spirit if I don't understand a passage or the amplified bible so that I may have clarity and I also use a Hebrew and Greek Dictionary because words used in different translations and in the particular era of the bible don't mean the same as today and one little word taken out of context can pervert the living word of God for example be careful of italizied words it is the translators opinion of what is trying to be said. This is why I use KJV because Jesus words are in red and since I'm created in the Fathers image I am going to say what the Father says so that nothing I say is contrary to his word, what he says I say, I'm like my daddy and if all scripture given is inspiration of God II Tim 3:16 then he said it just make sure they are his words. Rev 22:18-19 be careful and make sure they are Jesus words he said is words are spirit and life. |
