For true followers of Jesus Christ, the new TNIV Bible (so-called) Translation is nothing less than blasphemy. According to
The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language,
blasphemy is "A contemptuous or profane act, utterance, or writing concerning God or a sacred entity." and " An irreverent or impious act, attitude, or utterance in regard to something considered inviolable or sacrosanct." From a Biblical, sanctified, and regenerate perspective, the TNIV acronym can only mean the following:
- T - Tainted: This so-called translation is tainted - another word for contaminated or morally corrupt. The authors have changed the truth of God into a lie and are peddling this corruption as the Holy Bible when it is in fact not.
- N - Noxious: The TNIV is noxious, defined as "Harmful to the mind or morals." I would also add "...and to the soul." Anyone serious about finding Truth would do well to stay away from this perversion of it. It is the product of corrupt minds and is lethal to one's spiritual health.
- I - Inaccurate: It is filled with errors in that "it has deviated from what is correct, right, or true." Those who read it can have no confidence that they are reading God's Word. It is by every scriptural definition another gospel.
- V - Vile: The TNIV is vile which means "contemptibly low in worth or account..." Another word for "vile" is "profane" - "marked by contempt or irreverence for what is sacred." The reprobate creators of this abomination have treated the Holy Word of God with contempt and irreverence and as a result, God is profaned among them.
In summary, the TNIV should neither be promoted nor accepted as the Word of God. It is the tainted, noxious, inaccurate, and vile word of apostate man and should be treated as such by all - especially those who love Truth.
