There Can Only Be One Accurate English Bible Translation

by David J. Stewart | December 2019

Psalms 119:139-141, “My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words. Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it. I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.”

       If you visit BibleGateway website (which is very helpful), you can read information about hundreds of different Bible versions (all of the Bible version information in this article is from their site). It is very obvious to any thinking person, that the various Bible publishers are all LIARS, because they all claim that their “new” Bible version is the most “ACCURATE.” Common sense tells us that hundreds of Bible “versions” cannot all be the MOST ACCURATE. Read for yourself below some of their lies and nonsense, who make these bold fraudulent statements for filthy lucre's sake, to sell you another corruption of God's Word. ...

About the English Standard Version (ESV). Bob Jones University (BJU) promotes, sells and sanctions this PERversion...

The English Standard Version (ESV) is an "essentially literal" translation of the Bible in contemporary English. Created by a team of more than 100 leading evangelical scholars and pastors, the ESV Bible emphasizes "word-for-word" accuracy, literary excellence, and depth of meaning.

About the 'New International Version' (NIV)...

Decades after the vision was cast, the New International Version (NIV) has become one of the most widely read Bible translations in contemporary English. That’s because the NIV delivers the very best combination of accuracy and readability. It’s true to God’s Word and true to the reader.

About the 'Common English Bible' (CEB)...

The Common English Bible (CEB) is more than a revision or update of an existing translation. It's an ambitious new translation designed to read smoothly and naturally without compromising the accuracy of the Bible text.

About the 'Contemporary English Version' (CEV)...

Uncompromising simplicity marked the American Bible Society's (ABS) translation of the Contemporary English Version (CEV) that was first published in 1995. The text is easily read by grade schoolers, second language readers, and those who prefer the more contemporized form. The CEV is not a paraphrase. It is an accurate and faithful translation of the original manuscripts.

About the 'GOD'S WORD' Translation (GW)...

GOD'S WORD (GW) translation accurately translates the meaning of the original texts into clear, everyday language. Readable and reliable, GW is living, active, and life-changing. It is now published by God's Word Mission Society.

Produced in 1995 by God's Word to the Nations Bible Society, Cleveland, Ohio, the translation team was composed of members of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod. Their objective was to create a "natural equivalent translation," consciously combining scholarly fidelity with natural English. The grammar is simplified; the style is informal; and sentences are shorter and less complicated than other versions.

SOME ONE IS A LIAR!!! Ladies and gentleman, do you see a BIG PROBLEM (as I do) with their bogus claims of ACCURACY? Clearly they cannot all be accurate, since these versions all vary substantially in literally THOUSANDS of passages. Everybody and their dog nowadays has a new Bible translation, that they ALL claim to be “ACCURATE,” but that is IMPOSSIBLE!!! If someone says that 1 + 1 = 2, but someone else says that 1 + 1 = 3, clearly they are not both accurate!!!

“Lies don't save you!”
 —a quote by Pastor Steven Anderson from the awesome MP3 sermon, “Saved By The Word

The Grave Sin of Tampering With the Inspired Holy Bible

Here's what the publisher's say about the 'Worldwide English' New Testament (WE)...

This New Testament was originally prepared by Annie Cressman, who died in 1993. She was a Canadian Bible teacher in Liberia in West Africa. Whilst teaching students in a Bible School where the language used was English, she found that she was spending more time explaining the meaning of the English than she was teaching the Bible itself. So she decided to write this simple version in easy English so that her students could easily understand.

Look how she horribly and inaccurately renders Mark 1:15...

KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Mark 1:15, “And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.”

'Worldwide English' New Testament (WE) - Mark 1:15, “'The time has come,' he said. 'The kingdom of God is here. Stop your wrong ways, turn back to God and believe the good news.'”

Does a person have to stop their wrong ways to be saved? No, they don't! Miss Cressman is teaching WORKS SALVATION!!! It is a false gospel of damnation, not salvation. Biblical repentance is simply a change of mind unto the Gospel (Good News) itself. NO ONE is capable of stopping their sinning.

Here is what the publisher says about the 'International Children's Bible' (ICB)...

The International Children’s Bible® is not a storybook or a paraphrased Bible. It is a translation of God’s Word from the original Hebrew and Greek languages.

God intended for everyone to be able to understand his Word. Earliest Scriptures were in Hebrew, ideally suited for a barely literate society because of its economy of words, acrostic literary form and poetic parallelism. The New Testament was first written in the simple Greek of everyday life, not in the Latin of Roman courts or the classical Greek of the academies. Even Jesus, the Master Teacher, taught spiritual principles by comparing them to such familiar terms as pearls, seeds, rocks, trees and sheep. It is for this same purpose of making the Scriptures intelligible that this translation was created.

Now here is how the ICB renders Mark 1:15, again teaching WORKS SALVATION (as do all of the other Alexandrian PERversions) and Miss Annie Cressman...

KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - Mark 1:15, “And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.”

International Children's Bible - Mark 1:15, “Jesus said, 'The right time has come. The kingdom of God is near. Change your hearts and lives and believe the Good News!'”

The word “repent” here is metanoeo, a Greek verb simple meaning “TO THINK DIFFERENTLY.” Repentance is simply thinking differently from what you want to do to be saved, to what God says you must do to be saved!

The Southern Baptist Convention's despicable 'Holman Christian Standard Bible' (HCSB) is of the Devil. Here again they are claiming that their “new” Bible translation is WORD-FOR-WORD faithful to the originals. Which originals? All modern PERversions are based upon the Greek Alexandrian, Egypt texts produced by Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort in 1881. The beloved King James Bible was translated from an entirely different Greek text from Antioch, Syria. BOTH cannot be accurate, which is why the Devil introduced a SECOND AUTHORITY to the world in 1881, to confuse everyone and cast doubt upon the ACCURACY of God's Word (as did the serpent to Eve in Genesis 3:1). For this very reason, many people walk in and out of a religious bookstore nowadays without buying ANY BIBLE!!! I certainly can't blame them!

About the 'Holman Christian Standard Bible' (HCSB)...

The Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB) is a trusted, original translation of God’s Word. A team of more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations pursued two ideals with every translation decision: each word must reflect clear, contemporary English and each word must be faithful to the original languages of the Bible.

About the 'New Revised Standard Version' (NRSV). Notice that unsaved Roman Catholics had a part in translating this Bible PERversion...

The ecumenical NRSV Bible Translation Committee consists of thirty men and women who are among the top scholars in America today. They come from Protestant denominations, the Roman Catholic church, and the Greek Orthodox Church. The committee also includes a Jewish scholar.

Satan has a Bible version for everyone!!! God authored one Book, which has been preserved in the inspired King James Bible for the world today!!! New-evangelicals don't care. The Moody Bible Institute crowd don't care. The Bob Jones camp don't care. The Pensacola Christian College crowd don't care (A.W.O.L. from The Battles Of The Ages over the Word of God). The deeper-life folks at Dallas Theological Seminary (Cemetery) don't care. God cares. I care! Do you care? It is not okay to use, sell and approve of TWO different Bible versions in any language. You don't get to pick which “version” best fits your style. You are a wretched hell-deserving sinner (and so am I). The King James Bible is IN YOUR FACE, which is why I preach the bold way that I do, without compromise nor apology. I don't like making enemies. It makes me sad. I want to be loved. But I have little patience with Ecumenicals who arrogantly think they can serve God their own way, instead of God's way. You don't get to promote dozens of Bible translations! GOD ONLY AUTHORED ONE BOOK!!!
