“The use of Scripture for something other than its God-given design is an abuse of Scripture” -S. Swain, “Trinity, Revelation & Reading” p87
Sandomierz Consensus (1570)
Dear Church, What’s going on here? What are the issues? What kinds of translations are you supporting? christianitytoday.com/ct/2024/march/…
Will you pray for the progress of God’s Word among those who use sign languages? Info from ProgressBible™. SNAPSHOT. February 2024.
“Paul’s letters were surprisingly expensive to us, but actually the reason is that his letters were uncommonly long.” Randy Richards estimates that Romans would’ve (conservatively!) cost over $2000 to prepare and send in todays dollars. textandcanon.org/paul-and-first…
Dear Pastor, This is an important issue going on in modern missions and #bibletranslation. I’m grateful for @AaronMShryock writing this post & for his ministry. In 2023 I wrote 140 pgs (for my Theology of BT) on this topic & just saw Aaron’s post this week. Thanks brother!

“What he hears, he understands; what he understands, he remembers; what he remembers, he loves; what he loves, he believes; and what he believes, he practices. His life is a continual sermon.” -W. McEwen, “Delighting in God and All His Ways” (p211)
“In WBT-SIL, theology ranked well behind linguistics in scholarly importance, as is evidenced by the dearth of seminarians and theologians in the organization.” -Aldridge, “For the Gospel’s Sake: The Rise of the Wycliffe Bible Translators and the Summer Institute of Linguistics”
“Under the name of Holy Scripture, or the Word of God written, are all the books of the Old and New Testaments…” -WCF/Savoy/2LCF 1.2
“God is the message and motive of missions” T. Wells, “A vision for missions” (p140)
It is the duty of Christians to praise God publickly, by singing of psalms together in the congregation…But…where many…cannot read, it is convenient that the minister, or some other fit person appointed…do read the psalm…before the singing -Westminster Dir of Public Worship
Part of the Bible was printed in an African language before the Reformation, or the first printed edition of the Greek New Testament. Which language?
If you’re at the Sacramento Gospel Conference tomorrow, hosted by @IBCSac, drop by our booth and say hello sacramentogospelconference.com
Please pray for the progress of God’s Word Data below from ProgressBible™. SNAPSHOT. August 2023
July 2023 translation needs: From ProgressBible.SNAPSHOT
Hello @X What is the verb for the action formerly known as “tweeting”? Do we say “x it” and “I x’d” and how do we refer to someone’s “x”?
“In the case of Paul, too much can be made of the fact that he wrote in…the vernacular… Paul wrote the kind of Greek that was current in his day. This justifies a translation into modern English, but not therefore also into a colloquial register.” -J.Barton, “The Word” p113
“The discussion about the right kind of biblical translation thus leads, inevitably, into wider questions about the nature and status of the Bible.” -J.Barton, “The Word,” p83

@pray4bt Fascinating. Thanks for the quote and I love your work and website. I am a big fan!
Why do people need a Bible translation in their main language if they can conduct business or trade in another language that already has a Bible? Because they need the Bible in the language they sin in. That’s how I heard a missionary explain it recently.
@garettkerber @bobby_jamieson @9Marks Nice bookmark. @pray4bt
Just finished “The Path to Being a Pastor” by @bobby_jamieson from @9Marks. It is a very easy read with a lot of insightful thoughts and questions. I have a lot to consider after reading and recommend it to anyone aspiring to ministry!
One of the highlights of visiting MA was sitting down for an unscripted, galloping conversation with @nocoradio. We discussed @pray4bt, the blessedness of God who is a “verb,” and even how punk rock reflects the imago dei. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/no-…
@AndrewTRoycroft Good reminder of the principle that much is required of us, given the paucity of good translations globally. See @pray4bt bibletranslationfellowship.org
Concluding yesterday’s sermon, “Resolve to Know God More” (Ps 46), I suggested @IBCSac commit to reading some good books on the being and character of God in 2023. Here are some suggestions, accessible works that I stacked in increasing level of detail and depth.
One of the greatest privileges I’ve had in life has been to record the Bible—all 1,189 chapters of the Bible—in audio format. It has taken me one and half years. We finished today. Praise the Lord! I’m so happy that I’m hugging everyone and everything in my way—and dancing🕺🏽🎼.
@wagraham (1) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (2) and by the Spirit of (3) our God (In whose name they were also "washed." Cf. Matt 28:19)
“The formal rejection of creeds is in practice combined with a tight control of doctrine by those in authority using the yardstick of an unwritten and unacknowledged tradition.” - A.N.S. Lane
Sell whatever you must to get this (and be sure your pastors have a copy). With theological drift and confessional revisionism amongst us, Renihan’s recovery of the historical intent of what we confess in 2LCF is nothing short of life-saving for confessional Baptists.
“The present antipathy toward confessions might characterize a majority of evangelical Christians, but in the broader scope of the last two thousand years, confessionalism is most certainly the majority report.” - J.V. Fesko
Mark Dever on 🔥🔥🔥
Pastors, where is the frontline for "redemption" and "fight against sin"? Do you spend your time plowing and shepherding your own flock or throwing stones at entity heads? @MarkDever @JonathanLeeman @9Marks
“Even the best-taught congregations can never hear too often the great truths of the gospel.” - Ian Hamilton
It's hard to articulate the foresight of @chbcdc's finance committee. While thousands were fleeing the inner-city for the suburbs, CHBC was doubling down on its bet on cities and acquiring properties at bargain rates, which continue to benefit the church decades later.
In 1960, @chbcdc purchased 508 East Capitol Street NE as part of its aggressive project to buy up the entire city block. The cost? $32,000.
"The gospel should be the brightest part of our teaching. May we never teach a passage without including the gospel." "If we aren't allowing our hearts to be transformed by this process, then we're not doing it correctly." @simeontrust
Lectured on the nature and ends of theology this week for my ST 1 class. Here are the six points I made. 1. Theology begins and ends with wonder. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." "The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever."
