Trinitarian Bible Society

This article briefly covers the Hebrew and Greek texts which the Authorised (King James) Version Bible is based upon, the principles of translation, and the differences between present day Bibles and the Authorised Version.

Beginning with the translation work of John Wycliffe from the Latin Vulgate, Mr Ramsbottom traces the wonderful history of how we received our English Bible, the Authorised (King James) Version, which is loved and appreciated by many people around the world.

Does it really matter what Bible version you read? This booklet is a brief study on the differences between translations based on the Textus Receptus and the Critical Text. Filled with comparison examples it is an excellent guide to readers on the various Bible versions and which Bible version remains a faithful translation to the original Biblical languages. From the outset of his dealings with mankind the devil has sought to undermine our confidence in the Word of God, especially in those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ. He has done this especially by promoting a corrupt text of Scripture as the true Word of God. When this text is subjected to the Christological test it is found to be seriously wanting concerning the Person and Work of Christ. It would be quite wrong to say that modern versions bear no testimony to the truths considered in this booklet, as a systematic survey of the complete contents of these versions will show. Yet at the level of individual verses or passages here is a dange

How must we search the Scriptures as the Bereans did? We must receive it as the Bereans did, preparing our hearts prior to hearing and studying the Word and then receive it as the Word of God. The message is ended with six help to search the Scriptures.

Distributing and preaching the Word of God: the book of all truth, free from error. The Bible is spread abroad as there is no better book to put into the hands and hearts of all mankind.

Why is the distribution of Scriptures a biblical priority? Because, • Scripture is the special revelation of God• It is about Jesus Christ• It makes Scriptures effectual in the hearts of sinners (Mark 16:20)• Christians can distribute nothing more powerful than the Word of God (Hebrews 4:12)• God's Word is fundamental to revivals and conversion• Christians should have a missionary heart to see sinners converted• Christians should have confidence in God's Word• Christians have a duty to pray over the Scriptures for sinners to come to Christ.

The inaugural address of the South-West Auxiliary of the TBS. The Rev. John Thackway brings an encouraging message about the Word of God and how we all need the Scriptures - both those who distribute them and those who receive them.

A children's address on Christian missionaries who went throughout the world sharing the Word of God to those in foreign lands. The message begins with the questions, do we speak to our neighbours? The missionaries Samuel Burns, Hudson Taylor and Adoniram Judson all had a burden to share the Bible with their foreign neighbours.

The power of God's Word in the Reformation can be seen in (1) how it worked during that time, (2) how it was taught, and (3) how we seek the power of the Word today. The Word is the voice of God and He speaks to us with law and gospel. The power comes by the Holy Spirit who brings the Word into our hearts.

Within society we see that the Word of God seems to be dimming. There are many issues that are contrary to what the Scriptures teach. As the Word of God is under siege, will we let the Word speak to us? will we live by it?

A principle aim of the Society is to 'publish and distribute the Holy Scriptures throughout the world in many languages'. Of the approximately 6,500 languages in the world today only about 670 have complete Bibles, and many of those Bibles were produced using unsound translation principles and inferior Biblical language texts. It is the aim of the Society to provide sound, accurate and trustworthy Scriptures to needy souls around the world in as many languages as possible. Millions of the Trinitarian Bible Society's Bibles and Scripture items are distributed throughout the world each year, either as sales or as grants. Through the generous support of our members and friends, the Lord has enabled us to provide free or subsided copies of His Word to countless individuals and organisations.
