Translations
I grew up reading the King Jim, went to Bible College and changed to the RSV and now read the NIV. I certainly wouldn't burn it! I have reservations about the Good News and the Living Bible, but understand that they can be easily understood especially for a person who has never opened a Bible in their lives. Keith I too like The Message as it is very nice to read but of course is another paraphrase.
Shawn, I have a feeling that Gary has used the Phillips translation which he has had since Adam was a boy.
I'm thankful that the Holy Spirit can use any vessel to get His message across to us!
P.S. Shawn the 'Old Chap' is an endearment! I'm sure you are young (as opposed to me)and good looking! :-)
