Thank you for sharing this. I started a thread on this topic a week or so ago myself. I’m glad to know more and more people are becoming aware of this “translation” as well as the NAR in general.
The version of Song of Songs/Solomon in the TPT has Jesus saying that we are his equal!
Christians absolutely need to avoid this book, it is not an actual Bible.

Sure. The Passion Translation isn’t finished entirely yet. But what is there can be looked at.
One glaringly obvious issue (it should be anyway) is with TPT’s “translation of Song of Songs. Simmons chose to have Jesus as the “Bridegroom” telling His Bride, the Church, that we are His equal.
This is blasphemous and heretical. And it’s just one reason I warn others to stay away from this “translation.”

Here is NAR doctrine. They love "more advanced teachings" that the church has not had in 2,000 years (Bill Johnson says that in his books):
I had to nurse you and feed you with “milk,” not with the solid food of more advanced teachings , because you weren’t ready for it. In fact, you are still not ready to be fed solid food,
1 Corinthians 3:2 TPT

Paul does not have anything more advanced than the crucified Lord. That was Paul's point up until now. Wanting "meat" from "wisdom" teachers was causing the Corinthians to divide against Paul because only the meassage of the cross has the power to change lives not all the wacky NAR teachings that get away from that.
1 Cor is a good study because it mirrors the problem in the Charismatic churches today with the growth of the NAR movement.

Absolutely. As Paul also wrote, he determined to know nothing but Christ and Him crucified.
1 Corinthians 2:
1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
The so called “prophets” and “apostles” of the NAR love to focus on the “more”, as you say. They talk so much about the “now word” of God or the new things He is doing and revealing. Apparently these are things never known before to anyone, not even Paul and the other foundational apostles.
It is pure arrogance and pride. They say “thus saith the Lord”, when the Lord has not spoken.
