Answers to common questions concerning modern versions and translations.

New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

By presenting the New Testament books in the order they were written, bestselling Bible scholar Marcus Borg reveals how spiritually and politically radical the early Jesus movement began and how it slowly became domesticated. Evolution of the Word is an incredible value: not only are readers getting a deeply insightful new book from the author of Speaking Christian and Jesus, but also the full-text of the New Testament—and one of the only Bibles organized in chronological order and including explanatory annotations that give readers a more informed understanding of the Scripture that is so close to their hearts and lives.

The Bible makes the claim to absolute truthfulness and infallibility. It then provides the internal evidence to verify this claim. Complete harmony through sixty-six books by about forty different writers, spanning one and a half millennia, would be impossible if the author were not the Holy Spirit. In order for Scripture to make the claim of truthfulness, it must also contain the promise of preservation. God's promise to preserve his pure Word is dramatically fulfilled in the 1611 publication of the Authorized Version of the Bible, more commonly known today as the King James Version. The Bible's power, feared by its enemies, is the power to transform those who submit to its claims, and love its precepts. The written words of the King James translators have had a greater influence on this world than any other literary work the planet has ever seen. They have changed the course of nations, and altered history in a way the translators could not have fathomed. They have transmitted the precious gospel message to more souls than all other agencies combined. Only in eternity will their power be comprehended. The King James translators of the Bible achieved what has never been accomplished before, or since. Although the translators are mostly unknown, and their masterpiece is either unappreciated or maligned; though the importance of their accomplishment is not comprehended; though every power of hell and demons has been arrayed against this book, yet their legacy survives as the living Word of God - the best selling book of all time. Though God promised to preserve his word, the stern facts of history and the unyielding testimony of Scripture prove that attempts have been made to pervert God's Word: "ye have perverted the words of the living God," Jeremiah 23:36. Compare: KJV Job 19:26 "yet in my flesh shall I see God: " ASV Job 19:26 "then without my flesh shall I see God;" Simple logic demands that two opposite statements cannot both be true. Therefore one must be false. The one that is false cannot be God's pure, true, unperverted Word. Thus, to fulfill the promise of preservation, the Scripture must contain a way to distinguish the genuine from the counterfeit. With demonstrable and rather serious differences in so many current versions of the Bible, how can we be certain what is God's true and preserved Word? This book answers this question.

The wait is over for the sequel to the international bestseller, New Age Bible Versions, for its quarter of a million readers! For the first time ever, view the authors who brewed the words in corrupt new bible versions, such as the TNIV, NIV, NKJV, ESV, NASB, and HCSB. College president Dr. Norris Belcher said, "This book takes you to the head of the stream, where you will see the men, standing with sticks in hand, stirring up the mud to cloud the pure water of God's word, the King James Bible." This book will bring Greek and Hebrew study out of the closet for the first time. Tumbling out come the starving skeletons of the authors of Greek and Hebrew study tools, lexicons and editions, the sordid sources from which new versions, such as the NIV, TNIV, NKJV, ESV, NASB, and HCSB take their corrupt words. These are the very same study 'aids' which kill a sermon or Bible study when used to 'define' a word in the Holy Bible. Lexicon and Bible dictionary authors dug down into the depths of pagan lore, then ransacked the English dictionary to find a match which could burn the Bible word-by-word. The smoke darkens the directing light of the holy scriptures. This book will document that men who want to change and redefine the Holy Bible are likely to want to change anything -- even Bible doctrine, their own gender, and their god. - Publisher.
