Its called the new English bible. And no reputable source lists it as a correct translation. Seriously Rowdy, if you knew all the scripture that pertains to the end times, from old test to new,you might think differently about the times we live in. Just saying.

Wouldn't really know if it was a good version or not and really don't care. And no even if I did know all the scripture that pertains to the end times I wouldn't think differently because I can't accept something on blind faith. And reading a book written by people that were Jesus's disciples or apostles, whatever word is preffered, that pretty much all betrayed him before he died didn't seem appealing to me.

But what I find most ironic is that the Jewish, Christians, and Muslims all preach the love and peace thing and all believe in the same exact God but all refuse to acknowledge it. I mean it's kinda ironic that people all people will kill in the name of their religion even though they've been told by their God that killing is a sin and fighting will get them no where.

Grace, where do you get a listing of what makes one Bible a reputable source or a correct translation and another one not?

Who puts out this listing and on what authority?

Thank you for any reply that let's me know.

The JW have been predicting the 'end times' for over a hundred years.

And, come on. Are we really that much more wicked now, then say, Roman times?

Take the Spartans for example if they felt a child was weak and would not make a good warrior they would put them in the middle of nowhere to let them die.

If you knew bible prophecy, you wouldnt believe by blind faith. You would actualy see it happening today, before your eyes.

Ok, but whats that got to do with me? I never killed anyone, nor have I ever wanted to. And there are are billions within all 3 faiths that feel the same. Why let a few bad apples ruin the bunch?? Athiests kill each other too.

Don't pretend you know how think because the bible wasn't the only thing that has had prophecies that pertain to today's events. Nostradamaus, and other people such as Oracles have also said these things, which I would therefore have to believe in also just because I read it.

It has nothing to do with you personally but it does have to do with religion. The Jewish people persecuted many Christians when Christianity came about, the Christians had their crusades, and some Muslims have now perverted the Quran to fit their wants and belief of deserved revenge. I just find it rather ironic that they all have probably killed millions for their beliefs when all of their holy books apparently tell them killing is wrong. As for the Athiests at least they don't make an excuse that they kill in the name of a god that doesn't believe in killing.

And I would like to state that this is just me expressing my opinion. You believe in what the bible has to say all the more power to you.
"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
-Albert Einstein

"No two historians ever agree on what happened, and the damn thing is they both think they're telling the truth."
-Harry S. Truman
