If the Bible is the word of God and God protects his word...?

Question

then do you believe that the Bible can not be changed by those who translate it?

I believe that the word of God can not be destroyed and therefore those who translate the Bible are inspired by God just as those who originally wrote the Bible were. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away - Matthew 24:35, Mark 13:31, Luke 21:33 all say the same thing

Answer 1

God is in total control of the universe He created and everything in it! Therefore, He certainly can and does control the sacredness of His Word that will always remain on earth and always be His infallible Word. God is not going to allow mere man to destroy His Word. He's much bigger than some make Him out to be. God bless

Answer 2

Man has destroyed everything else. What makes you think that the word of God would not be twisted and contorted beyond recognition. If I write down something today, in 100 years from now no one will be able to translate it. It wouldn't make sense. Things change. The bible is incomplete, the stories aren't literal. Metaphores and analogies are used that we don't even come close to understanding. Who says the ones translating have the authority to tell you what it means. You should do your own translating and put value to what you read in the Bible. Do you really want to listen to priests who molest children, especially when it comes to them translating the message for you? God is not in the Bible, God is in you and every other thing in the universe. God is also not a man in the sky with a big beard and a stone book with everyones name in it. God is a word beyond repair. Do you know how many names translate to the word God? Over 100. God made everything from himself so how can God not be everything. Everything is entangled. The bible is not unbiasly translated.

Answer 3

Many skeptics have faith that the Bible has been quite replaced over the centuries. in reality, the Bible has been translated into a number of different languages (first Latin, then English and different languages, see heritage of the Bible). besides the undeniable fact that, the classic manuscripts (written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek) have been reliably copied over the centuries - with very few alterations. With all the super manuscript information you may think of there could be super discrepancies - purely the different is real. New testomony manuscripts agree in ninety 9.5% (5) of the text cloth (while in comparison with purely ninety 5% for the Iliad). a super variety of the discrepancies are in spelling and be conscious order. some phrases have been replaced or extra. There are 2 passages that are disputed yet no discrepancy is of any doctrinal importance (i.e., none could regulate undemanding Christian doctrine). maximum Bibles incorporate the thoughts as footnotes while there are discrepancies. How could desire to there be such accuracy over a era of a million,4 hundred years of copying? 2 motives: The scribes that did the copying had meticulous approaches for checking their copies for blunders. 2) The Holy Spirit made specific we could have an precise reproduction of God's be conscious so we does no longer be deceived. The Mormons, theological liberals besides as different cults and fake religions jointly with Islam that declare the Bible has been tampered with are thoroughly shown fake by using the huge, historic manuscript information. Sorry it is so long

Answer 4

We have to get past this kind of rhetoic. If the translators could, they would translate the Bible the same every time. But there are too many issues at hand, and it doesn't allow a simple short explanation to deliver all of them.

The most ancient manuscripts were written in languages that do not compare to our own, if our own is English. They have elements to their words that are not included in the English language. That's why it's important for those who really want to learn the ways of God to have a concordance and perhaps a biblical dictionary handy. We are talking about another language, ancient to our perspective, in a foreign land. The customs and words that they used and were familliar with were not akin to our own words and customs.

So keep studying, and learn as much about them as God leads you to.

Answer 5

No- the integrity of the interpreters is foremost with me. I trust Dr Bullinger and Dr Strongs. All the rest I have concerns for. I personally do not use a NIV because of the homosexuals that were allowed in the translation commitee in the early '70's when the work was done.

Answer 6

I think if God can create the universe, move mountains, raise the dead, and deliver mankind from sin, He can make sure the book his followers believe in is accurate. So yes, making sure the Bible is correctly translated is a pretty simple task for Him.

Answer 8

Well, my feelings are this...If MAN wrote the bible, and Man translates the bible........and 'God' gave man the freedom of FREE WILL, then doesn't that open up the possibility that Man's free will could possibly influence the Truths and Interpretations of the Bible?

Just a thought.

Answer 9

God's word interpreted by man... reinterpreted again and again and again??

Becomes nothing but generations of man-made by product.

What God's words?

If it is the genuine tomb of God, we'd find it in a space alian language on the MARS!
