Which of all of our corrupt "translations" is your favorite or most often used to share with folks?
They are all just someone's Translation Sean, into another language. Study...don't just focus on the KJV and assume it's the only translation God approved of

At least the KJV is not as corrupt as the New World Translation.

I would have referred to the NIV, but many think the KJV is more corrupt than the NIV.

Shall I study such a corrupt translation as the KJV ?

You brethren have shown me much more preferrable passages from other translations to use instead.

I dont want to be misled by the evil King James as Aaron imples in his post.

I am hoping someone would create a new translation to fix this problem.

Maybe we can hire a few in the UPC and APOSTOLICS to oversee the task.

Re: Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Fathe

The problem is there are so many that say different things. I dont know which translation is better. All of them are corrupt.

Guys, which is the least corrupt translation to be used as the Word of God for my studies these days?

Study the bible. Study different translations. Get into what words meant back then vs what they mean today instead of reading a translation that was done several hundred years ago as if it was translated into modern english

And by all means study to see if the KJV translators made any errors in translation.

Re: Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Fathe

NKJV is alright if you want to stick to translations using the TR.

ESV, LEB, NET otherwise

Conversation

2Co 1:12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

People normally would think the word conversation means

noun noun 1.informal interchange of thoughts, information, etc., by spoken words; oral communication between persons; talk; colloquy.
2.an instance of this.
3.association or social intercourse; intimate acquaintance.
4.criminal conversation.
5.the ability to talk socially with others: She writes well but has no conversation.

BUT...if you continue down the list you get to OBSOLETE definitions

Obsolete.
  1. behavior or manner of living.
  2. close familiarity; intimate acquaintance, as from constant use or study
Yes, at one time the word Conversation meant BEHAVIOR

Conversation used to mean, back in King James days, behavior....

Words change over time. Reading a translation from hundreds of years ago as if it was translated today is a mistake

All versions outside the Majority Text versions weaken the case for Oneness. In itself that does not mean they are wrong. But when you do your homework concerning Byzantine vs Alexandrian I think many will stay with the majority text.

Having said that it is better to have a slightly less accurate Bible than to have none at all. Ask Christians in China, Africa and the Middle East.

They would rejoice to even have the Living Bible.
