The question 'Which Bible Translation is Most Reliable, " wasn't answered here.

The niv translation is one of the most ridiculed, i never believed in God until I ended up in pit of depression from drink and drugs addictions, no-one witnessed to me, i got on my knees in wholehearted repentance and received through Gods grace alone forgiveness through Jesus's sacrifice on the cross and I am now reading the niv translation which God placed on the bedside locker in the clinic I was in from addictions.
Glory to God.

I love the king James version I will gladly stick to the old version there’s something wonderful about it of course being totally blind from birth I love reading the Bible I don’t have a braille copy of the king James version but I do have it on CD for those that want to hear the king James Bible on audio cd for those that are new to it I highly recommend the holy Bible old and New Testament King James version by Alexander Scourby he does a marvelous job at reading the Bible I love how he reads it and it is good to get the 2017 remastered version and it’s great I love it.

I honestly think it hinges on what the individual reader prefers, as long as there are no issues of straight up changing the meaning of a passage. Me personally, I prefer the NKJV, seeing as I grew up with the KJV, it is easier for me to follow along.

I’ve read, cover to cover the new King James Version, the NIV84, NASB, and parts of about a dozen other translations. I also have a NASB version linked to Strongs on my iPad. For different reasons I liked all three of the Bible versions that I’ve completely read. With the Olive Tree Bible app, I usually have two versions open side by side when I study.
I’ve gravitated to mostly using the NASB version as the easiest to understand but often refer to other version as I do and constantly look at the Strongs.

He is simply stating historical fact on where our current Bibles came from. When your reading Gods word you most definitely need to understand that context is of the utmost importance. Understanding the worldview of the original writers and how through translation from one language to another there has most definitely been ( by the writers own admittance) some slight mistakes. To discredit this to be honest would be foolish. God has preserved his word and will always do so but we are are to be wise in this and diligently seek His truth.

[katrinbarbey]

Did he say which one was most accurate or did I miss that part?

[joeyharris]

I am just now seeing this after it was produced nine years ago. To be fair, it would be great to also have someone from "the other side" of the debate, pro KJV, as opposed to James White who takes the opposite position. David Daniels would be great to have on Wretched. He is a trained linguist and well researched on the history and transmission of the English text.

Did he ever even name the most reliable version in this video?

[thmountainvet]

Very cool to see how social media has brought together some of these big names discussing Christ today.

Learned more from this than most utube vids I've watched on the same topic

[whatsaiththescriptures]

God has never, currently does not, nor will he ever have TWO BIBLES (far less 200) that contradict each other. The issue is: Has God kept his word in PRESERVING his word. The answer is yes.
It is titled the King James Bible.

NET in my opinion, based on the largest cache of Hebrew manuscripts, add footnotes are by far the most detailed in giving explanations for why they choose the words they choose in each particular verse

[douglasboyd]

They never said which is the most accurate translation is….

[robertkauffman]

Now that we have a hundred translations and some with new pronouns. I think I'll stay with the older versions thank you.

[markelmore]

I got a degree in Religion, learned Greek and Hebrew so I can judge for myself. My opinion is ESV is the best for Nestle-Aland 28, and KJV for the Textus Receptus. Merely my thoughts.

[Sirach]

I love love love the 1901-1929 American Standard Version.

[sgttau]

For best study it's recommended to use multiple translations when you study.

[ericmuetterties]

My personal preference is KJV w Strongs next to the ESV, and interlinear bibles. When the ESV and KJV diverge, look deeper. KJV does have translation issues.

When it’s all boiled down, we either have the word of God or we don’t. Comparing the King James Bible to the other versions shows there are obvious clear differences! God said he would preserve his word! Either he did or he didn’t! I for one believe he is powerful enough to preserve his word and has done so in the KJV Bible. If anyone would disagree with that a simple look of the history of Christianity shows beyond any doubt that God blessed the KJV Bible and the preaching of it for massive revivals. No other book in history has been blessed like that book! No other book I read speaks to me like that book!
