What English Bible translation do Anglicans use in Church services? at home?
Same answer as for most questions about Anglican practice: no single mandated standard exists.Cary.Melvin said:What English Bible translation do Anglicans use in Church services? at home?
I know of a few "bible christians" who do not like the Good News Bible, but are very happy to read mst others. I can only assume it's heavy on paraphrase. An interesting accusation when you read half the GospelsCliffnotes said:My church uses NSRV. My fav is NIV.
Speaking about the Good News Bible....is that a translation or paraphrase?
I've heard some priests, as I have many evangelicals, speak against paraphrases used in any way other than additional reference.
My wife and I (she thinks a lot like Michelina, to give you a point of reference) have discussed this at length. And there are two aspects of "inclusive language" that are important to bring up.Cary.Melvin said:I see quite a few that are using the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV).
Do any of you have a problem with the amount of gender inclusive language that is in it?
