No Matter What Version, I Believe All Bible Stand To Its True Meaning

October 15th 2011 04:49
I just cannot help to notice this thing. I was actively involved in one of the paid to discuss forum sites when someone posts a topic about the real true Bible.

From what I see and read, most people think the English Bible of the King James Version is the only Bible with the true meaning as the original scripture. They have their own point and I think most of the people agree about it. King James Version is known as the first English Bible that was written by translates it direct from the original scripture. The other version of the Bible is believed as the translation from the King James Version into a simpler English or modern English.


I didn’t know how true that is and I also didn’t make any research about this. It is not that I don’t care about the Bible, but does it really matter? For me, the Bible can be in any translation and any language and it still doesn’t matter for me. Why?

Let us ask ourselves. Why we become a Christian? As for me, it is because I believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and Holy Trinity. Like any other Christian, I also like to know what really written at the original scripture. But since it is not available for us to read, I have to make do with reading the translation of the Bible. And even if there is any that is available, I don’t think I can read it as I not understand it if it was in the original language.

Because of my belief in Christ, I believe what I read in the translated Bible does hold the true meaning of the original scripture. I believe, whoever does the Bible translation, he or she was guided by the Holy Spirit. How can we trust the people that teach about the word of God if we cannot even believe the person that was translating the Bible. It is easier to translate the Bible from certain language to another language rather than translating the hidden message in the Bible.


We need to believe that the Holy Spirit have guide the translator of the Bible so the children of God will still get the true meaning of the scripture. We believe the God have spoke to the translator so that the translator can find the meaning of the phrase of word which was written originally. We have to believe, otherwise our faith meant nothing is we doubt that if the Bible translation still hold the true meaning.

Because of this, I believe no matter what version of Bible we read, we all have read the true word of God. Remember, Christian is about faith not proven science or data. The more doubt we had, the weaker we will get. Strengthen our faith and remove all the doubt.

Even small changes in words can change meaning. Many times a phrase or term in the original was a colloquialism that the translator doesn't understand and translates incorrectly. Or what meant one thing in Biblical times means something different now.

Getting a camel through the "eye of a needle" is one good example. Those words connote a sewing needle to most people. Far too small for a camel to enter. But the term actually means the small door in a walled city. It was called a "needle" and a camel could get through it, on it's knees and without a pack on it's back. The symbolism is clear if you think of it in those terms.

Have you ever watched Shepherd's Chapel? It's on satellite all over the world and goes through the Bible chapter by chapter and verse by verse. The original words and terms (in Greek and Aramaic and Hebrew) are translated where there is any question about a meaning. I have found it very helpful in my studies and am amazed at the things that I didn't know before!
