Are all Bible translations equal? Is there such a thing as a pure Bible free from error? What do the scholars say? But more importantly, what does the Bible teach about itself? This book is written for layman and scholar alike. It is a fresh but systematic explanation of inspiration, preservation, canonization and transmission as they apply to the Bible controversy raging in our churches today. The author is a veteran missionary and Bible translator who travels world-wide assisting Bible translation teams in their processes. This book is the result of twelve years of research into the Bible Translation debate.
