Bible Problem

It’s my understanding that the word “perfect” concerning a translation is mostly in reference to being complete, entire, and plenary. Thus, only translations derived from that majority of extant manuscripts contain all of Word of God (Mat 4:4)! Studying a translation which has much less manuscript evidence cannot affect one’s salvation; but it will affect one’s spiritual growth in the Lord Jesus (Eph 5:14).

“The doctrine of preservation does not guarantee the preservation of the autographs, for they perished within a few years after their writings. Neither does it guarantee the accuracy of the copies, because errant men copied them. It does guarantee that the complete contents of the infallible Scriptures have been preserved, not in any one manuscript, but somewhere within the manuscript tradition!” –D.O.Fuller, D.D.

NASB. Sometimes the NET. Sometimes the NLT, if I'm just reading...

I believe that the original autographs were inspired and inerrant. I think ANY translation is going to contain some error. Thus I use several and (if needed) compare to the Hebrew, Aramaic, and/or Greek.

For that purpose I primarily use: Darby, NKJV, NET (LXX), & Young's Literal. But being blessed to have a computer and Bible programs I can (and on occasion do) consult others.

II Timothy 2:15:
Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God, a workman that has not to be ashamed, cutting in a straight line the word of truth.

II Timothy 3:16:
Every scripture [is] divinely inspired, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;
II Timothy 3:17:
that the man of God may be complete, fully fitted to every good work.
