The subject of Bible versions is by no means an academic one, as some may think. It may have academic aspects to it but it is really a very personal subject which affects every believer. We trust that we have all been called by the grace of God to know and love the Lord Jesus Christ. Our desire now is to glorify and to enjoy God. We believe that the Word of God is the only rule to direct us in this our chief end and we believe that the Word of God is to be found only in the Bible. If we are to glorify and enjoy God then we are bound to make use of the Bible. But which Bible are we to use? There are a great many versions on offer today. We must therefore make a choice of one version from among the many. Which one will it be? Will it be the Authorised Version? Will it be a modern version? Does it really matter? Every Christian should have a keen interest in this subject.
