Bible Question: Why are there so many versions of the Bible. When I was a child everyone had the same bible. Today you can't read along with ministers in many occasions because you may not have the particular version he is using. I visit a lot of different denominal and non denominal churches with our gospel singing group and I find it frustrating not to be able to read along. Someone that didn't know anything about the bible and not been to church much may not know what to believe. Whatever happened to Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. Or not adding to or taking away from the word of God. Is this not what man is doing when they change things around so much? |
Bible Answer: Md1234: What is your question? I'm not sure what you are asking here. I understand the situation you are describing, but what can a person do about it? There's no law decreeing that everyone must use one and only one English version of the Bible or that everyone must use the same one. I sure don't want some preacher, priest or politician telling me what translation to use. Short of that I don't know what we're supposed to do. We can't even agree on what God's Name is. Grace to you, Kalos |
