"What are you going through? What kind of test?

I don’t care if the devil is throwing every kind of lust out of hell at you. I don’t care if you are being tempted beyond anything you’ve ever been tempted physically, spiritually, mentally, or any other way... God is with you in it!

God allowed these things to happen. But He said, I want you to come to a place where you realize that I am with you. I will never leave you. I will never forsake you."

– David Wilkerson

Good information!

Here are 10 of the most influential Bible Translations in History.

1. The Septuagint (LXX) – 3rd Century BC

The first major translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek. It was the version most frequently quoted by the New Testament authors and the early Church Fathers.

2. The Latin Vulgate – 405 AD

Translated by St. Jerome, this version became the official Bible of the Church for over 1,000 years. It unified Western Christendom under a single Latin text and served as the primary source for almost all early European translations.

3. The Wycliffe Bible – 1382

The first complete translation of the Bible into English. John Wycliffe’s work was revolutionary because it challenged the Church's monopoly on scripture, setting the stage for the Protestant Reformation.

4. Luther’s German Bible – 1534

Martin Luther’s translation into the "common" German tongue did more than just fuel the Reformation; it actually helped standardize the German language itself.

5. The Tyndale Bible – 1526

William Tyndale was the first to translate the New Testament directly from Greek into English. About 84% of the King James Version is actually Tyndale's original wording.

6. The Geneva Bible – 1560

The Bible of the Puritans and the one brought to America on the Mayflower. It was the first "study Bible," featuring extensive marginal notes and the first to use verse numbers, making it highly accessible for personal study.

7. The King James Version (KJV) – 1611

Perhaps the most influential book ever published in English. Beyond its religious impact, it shaped the English language, literature, and culture for 400 years.

8. The Revised Standard Version (RSV) – 1952

The first major modern translation to challenge the dominance of the KJV. It utilized 19th and 20th-century manuscript discoveries serving as the foundation for many modern ecumenical and academic Bibles.

9. The New International Version (NIV) – 1978

Currently the world’s best-selling modern English translation. It popularized the "dynamic equivalence" (thought-for-thought) approach, making the Bible more readable for the average person while maintaining evangelical scholarship.

10. The English Standard Version (ESV) – 2001

A modern "essentially literal" translation that has rapidly become the standard for many Reformed and conservative Protestant churches. It bridges the gap between the literary beauty of the KJV/RSV tradition and modern linguistic accuracy.
