After once telling us in chapel to mail our NIVs back to the publisher, John MacArthur has agreed to an NIV version of the MacArthur Study Bible. It’s absolutely not about the millions of dollars to be made, but it’s about having study notes to help those reading an inferior translation. Sigh :-). But maybe now I ‘ll get my kids one :-). Except it’s the NIV2011, so scratch that.
I agree with this statement: “Many of our English translations make it easy to do word studies; and painfully difficult to grasp the meaning of a paragraph.”
Sexual Sin in the Ministry – I couldn’t believe what I read about the statistics on this. They can’t be true, though even if they are half, we are in big trouble.
I am guessing that this will be a very good (short) introduction to the Bible’s origin, reliability, and interpretation.

Interesting about NIV Study Bible. By the way I switched to reading NIV daily and I love it. Thank you for your encouragement.
