    Your point is well taken. I will simply say, "I don't have to like it!" ;)

    John MacArthur

    Is owning more than one Bible a sin? After all, an individual only needs one Bible, correct? And owning more than one Bible is an example of "excess," isn't it? Furthermore, "a sin is a sin is a sin," right? Isn't that what we preach and teach in church?

    That's only one more house than my local Congressman.

    That Person

    My two favorite Bible translations are the NASB95, and the ESV. Having said that, however, I do readily concede your points regarding their flaws and/or shortcomings (especially in regard to your points pertaining to grammar, word order, etc.). Thus far, I'm not necessarily impressed with...

    This was my feeble attempt at sarcasm, by the way. :)

    John MacArthur

    John MacArthur will never be as wealthy as Joyce Meyers. ;)

    Dude?

    Before we know it, a new so-called Bible "translation" (or paraphrase) will begin to use the word "dude" in place of "brother." Or should it be "dudes and dude-etts?" ;)

    Just out of curiosity: which Bible translation(s) do you prefer to utilize?

    Do you have any examples from the NASB20?

    Is it time to "update" the NIV?

    Just out of curiosity: perhaps you might provide us with some examples of what you'd like to see them tweak or fine tune?

    Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

    I believe you make some very valid points here.

    Is it time to "update" the NIV?

    It's been ten years since the NIV was updated. Is it time for another update? If so, what would you like to see changed?

    ESV?

    I'm not certain what you mean by that last statement. Perhaps you might expand on that?

    Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

    I suppose I have somewhat of a love/hate relationship with the CSB. I appreciate what the translators are attempting to do, but (at times) it appears they are "trying too hard" to sound modern or contemporary. I'll be reading the CSB, and thinking, "this is pretty good," but then I find...
