How We Got Our Bible (Pt.10)

As of October 2014, the Bible has been translated into some 2883 languages.  This statistic represent a staggering 98% of the world’s population.  In spite of this, there are still global projects underway to see the Bible translated into many more languages.  God in His infinite sovereign wisdom chose to have the original inspired Autographa written in the languages of Hebrew (Old Testament) and Greek (New Testament).  Yet. He did so with the foreknowledge that not everyone in the world would speak these languages, meaning that translations would inevitably have be made.

In this teaching we explore some of the earliest versions of the Bible; Syriac, Latin and Coptic.  Moreover, we explore the amazing history of the English Bible from the first ever English translation in 1380 up to the King James Bible of 1611.  Whatever way you look at it, courageous men of God gave their lives to give the English speaking people the Word of God in their own language!!  The question is, what are we doing with it?
