Ranking Bible Translations: Which Ones to Trust (and Which to Avoid)
Live Free with Josh Howerton
Which Bible translation should you actually trust, and are there some translations you should avoid altogether?
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How different Bible translations are created and why that matters
- Which translations are best for reading, studying, and teaching
- Why some translations weaken clarity and conviction
- How Jesus used Scripture to defeat temptation
- Why temptation itself is not sin, and how to recognize the real battle
- The three predictable ways Satan tempts every person
- How authority, dominion, and redemption fit into the biblical story
- Why “It is written” is more than a phrase...it’s a strategy
Pastor Josh and Jana Howerton help you read the Bible with confidence, confront temptation with clarity, and see Scripture as one unified story, rather than a collection of disconnected verses.
Watch to the end; this will sharpen how you read the Bible and live it out.
