Hi.When you have felt Gods love, the question is 'What is the WORD for this love?'¶ THE WORD was in the beginning, and THAT VERY WORD was with God, and GOD WAS THAT WORD.The same was in the beginning with God.Everything came to be by his hand; and without him not even one thing that was created came to be. Can you not say that God created this…[Read more]

Yes Nick, I was thinking the same thing.Please continue on.

Hi Ed.  I was talking about the following post… But I see now it wasn't a question, so Ok, fair enough.Quote:”Assyrian and Syrian Christians have always maintained that they hold the original New Testament, preserved in the Peshitta NT, as they call it, carefully copied since the days of the disciples.  They claim that the Greek manuscripts w…[Read more]

Thanks for those links LU, I'll read them later.

BTW I was just saying that much, I'm not getting involved in this Topic trust me!

Light meaning goodness.

Hi, all.Well,  ultimately, the 'best translation' is the one which you will actually read. Taking in the Word of God is what really matters.  I usually use the RSV, just because it was the first one I had ever read, and is old and falling apart but means a lot to me.Anyway, Lamsa's translation which is the one mostly spoken about can be d…[Read more]

More notes:Translations of the Peshitta (From Wikipedia):”Both John Wesley Etheridge (1846–1849) and James Murdock (1852) produced translations of the New Testament Peshitta in the 19th century. George Lamsa produced a translation of the whole Peshitta in 1933 which remains a standard reference point.Lamsa is also notable as the best known a…[Read more]

David Bauscher's translation is not the original Lamsa translation but obviously a Trinitarian one.So which one then is true? Lamsa's or David Baucher's?I will stick with Lamsa's NOT Biblos.com's Aramaic.http://www.lamsabible.com/index.html

Thank you.And thanks Seeking for pointing out the error.

Quote:Chick Publications call the Lamsa Bible  “perverted” and “occult”, part of a conspiracy to subvert Christianity. This reflects the view of many Christians out there. But what if the opposite is true – that the Bible was mistranslated and even changed, some by accident but some with manipulative intent. Looking into this only peripherally, I…[Read more]
