translation of holy scriptures.

Is The Bible Accurate ?

150,000 variations in the manuscripts represent 10,000 places in the New Testament. From these places, all but 400 are questions of spelling in accord with accepted usage, grammatical construction, or order of words. And from the rest of the variations, only 50 are of significance. But of these 50, not one changes even one article of faith that

can't be sufficiently sustained by other undoubted passages.

Besides all these changes in Bible, Jesus said "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away."

As per readers, the word-to-word translation is the best for everyone that is followed in King James Version and the

modern New King James Version.

Next is the invention of meaning-to-meaning translation--- where it explains the exact point to most of the readers and

when text is not clear, meaning helps to understand.
