New English Translation of Bible Omits 'Jesus Christ,' 'Angel' (generation, death)

[Visvaldis]

The bible should specifically state that Satan, unlike god, never ordered the mass murder of any peoples.
Better yet, the bible should be permanently retired to the fiction shelf among other books about fairy tales and legends.

Why do they want to keep changing the word of God to their own understanding?

THEY in this case are all progressives and this is a form of them rewriting so many things.

It wouldn't be the Bible if this were so? They can't leave Jesus out of the New Testament, you do know that's what that book is all about don't you, it's not about Zeus.

If Jesus is left out then the New Testament has no meaning and this is what they're trying to accomplish. Also means no Cross!! Liberals really think they can pull the wool over Christians eye's........don't think so!!!

I'd wager many Christians don't even know the meaning or origin of the word "Christ". To those, it's probably just a special holy word without any particular meaning behind it. I think it's interesting to make that meaning available and known. Nothing is taken away here.

I don't think I will be reading The Voice as I am sure I will probably be dead, especially if the Supreme Court fails to kill Obamacare. I have been happy with the word Jesus all my years and don't care for the sound of the Anointed One since that has been used in discussions of Obama enough to confuse me.

They wonder why Christians have to continue talking about Jesus, if we didn't look where they would have Him..............

Seriously, sounds like our teacher's union school books these days, doesn't it?

Sounds like the Jefferson Bible...
