Most Accurate Translation of the Bible

<< < (2/2)

newgene87:
We've all been there. I think the hardest part is UNlearning and becoming UNdoctrinated to what you know

Mark 2:21-22
No man also sews a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse. No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost and the skins [as well]; but [one puts] new wine into fresh wineskins.”

It takes time. God will give you the ears to hear - and the heart to believe. We'll be praying for your growth.

Hey Sybil,

Two translations I find the most helpful are:

1)Concordant Literal Translation
2)Youngs Literal Translation

I find that they are very accurate and helpful.  Neither teach eternal torment.  But remember no translation is completely accurate 100%.  But its good to use translations like these, along with a greek/hebrew dictionary like strong's. 

I second Brother Eugene, a greek/hebrew interpinear is a good translation.  They bring thr strongs numbers so its good for word study and really digging deep into what certain verses mean.  Also good for comparing verses!

Hope that helps!

God bless,
Cris

lol, Sybil, you should've seen me -- I'd post replies in the oddest of places.   

Yeah, I'm positive you'll get the hang of it--you appear to be doing just fine from my end.  :)

Zimmy:
I have used at least a dozen translations over the years. Always searching for the "ONE" that comes closer to Gods true character (Love). The one that stuck for me is the Concordant Literal N.T.  I have read the thing to pieces. Duct tape and La Pages white glue hold it together.
Their only twenty bucks but I can't part with my old one, I love that bible, it has my thoughts and notes, as well as Cross-references in it, and the Keyword Concordance in the back is indispensable. I hear some say its a tuff read, not so. You might want to check one out.
