  In this episode of Luke21, Steve Wood explores the profound significance of Genesis 3:15, the "Protoevangelium"—the first announcement of the Gospel. He examines how this verse lays the foundation for the entire Bible's story of redemption, pointing to the ultimate defeat of Satan through the “Seed” of the woman. Through biblical examples like David and Goliath, Jael and Judith, and the crucifixion of Jesus, Steve illustrates the recurring theme of head-crushing victory.

GALATIANS BIBLE STUDY Catholics often wonder why two-thirds of young Catholics who are raised in the Church fall away once they reach adulthood. The answer? Because we've reduced the Christian faith to a to-do list, rather than teaching these young Catholics the ongoing need for the power of the Holy Spirit. In today's episode, your host Steve Wood describes what will lead to a transformed, empowered Christian life that will not fall away.  Referenced in this episode: Galatians 5:9 Galatians 4:6 Romans 5:5  Ezekiel 11:19 Galatians 1:3 Acts 2:16 Bible translations Steve recommends: RSV-CE – Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition ESV – English Standard Version, if you don't want to use a Catholic bible Welcome to Faith & Family Bible Studies!

Ken welcomes Ed Oxford, key researcher and contributor to the film 1946 - The Mistranslation that Shifted Culture. Ed, who identifies as a gay Christian, graduated with a Master of Divinity degree from Talbot Theological Seminary in New Testament. In the years that followed, his study of the original languages and the many English translations of the Christian scriptures brought him to the undeniable conclusion that the “Bible has been weaponized against the LGBTQ+ community.” A case in point is a passage from I Corinthians in which the 1946 Revised Standard Version (RSV) erroneously translated a Greek word, introducing the term “homosexual” to the Bible for the very first time. The film's trailer begins with Rev. John MacArthur quoting from his pulpit, “Neither fornicators, nor idolators, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals shall inherit the Kingdom of God.”Along with colleague Kathy Baldock, Ed won access to the archives at Yale University. He and Kathey explored the source materials: the translator's notes and records used to produce the New Testament. In the original documents, they uncovered the debate over this word choice and finally the admission of the error. The revised RSV changed the word in 1974. But too late. Subsequent translations repeat the error:  e.g. The Living Bible (promoted by Billy Graham), the New American Standard Bible (NASB), and most recently, the English Standard Version (ESV - promoted by John MacArthur). Homosexuality became synonymous with “perversion” - and weaponized. Ed shares his personal experience as a gay man in the evangelical church that includes reparative therapy and finally the story of his involvement in the film - a timely and important corrective.

Patrick shares his top recommendation for teenagers seeking a reliable Bible—the Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition, also known as the Ignatius Bible. Unlike the New American Bible, which has some problematic footnotes and explanations that can introduce doubt, the Ignatius Bible offers a clear, accurate, and modern translation without unnecessary confusion. Remember, having the right tools is key to deepening one's faith.   Bridget (email) – What is the name of the drug and rehab center in Florida?

In this episode, we share our thoughts on the 1946 documentary, which tells the story of how the word “homosexuality” did not appear in an English Bible until the 1946 Revised Standard Version. With the help of researchers Kathy Baldock (incredible ally!!!) and Ed Oxford, director Rocky Roggio shows how the translation team took two words in Greek and mistakenly translated them to “homosexuality,” and this choice greatly impacted future Bibles and theologies. We talk about how we appreciated Rev. David Fearon's courageous journey of questioning the translation committee's decision and writing to them about it, and coming out later in life when Kathy befriended him (it is never too late!). We are so grateful for the work that everyone in this project put into it, and we think that its storytelling and reliable data has the power to change lives and families for the better.

Tina Wood grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee and went to college at Boston University. In her adopted home state of Rhode Island, she was involved in successful efforts to pass several pieces of pro-LGBTQ state legislation over the years, and also runs the email list for LGBTQ news from Rhode Island. She has volunteered as a "search angel" who helps adoptees, birth families, and others who are searching for family and friends over the past several years. In 2018, at request of Kathy Baldock and Ed Oxford, she was able to find Reverend David Sheldon Fearon, who had written a series of letters challenging the translation team of the Revised Standard Version on their usage of the word "homosexual." Reverend Fearon's letters are discussed in the upcoming documentary "1946: The Movie," and Kathy Baldock's upcoming book "Forging a Sacred Weapon: How the Bible Became Anti-Gay." In today's episode, Tina goes into detail how she found, the Reverend David Fearon, the seminarian who challenged the translation in the RSV Bible in regards to the use of the word homosexual. She talks about the movie, 1946 and how that was the year that the mistranslated word, homosexual, was added to the bible for the first time and has been responsible for religious trauma, abuse, and affected the mental health and lives of many queer people who have completed suicide attempts because of the mental anguish due to societal bigotry and religious pressures for us to live inauthentically.

"I prayed to receive Christ when I was 11 years old because nobody had explained how before then," Bruce recalls. When I read the Revised Standard Version of the Bible they gave me I didn't question it. After all, the cover said "Holy Bible." I still don't question what God communicated to us but I have come to understand come to understand there are mis-translation and mis-interpretation issues in Genesis 3:16 and in the related passages on women and men. As the result of the extensive research of my wife, Joy Fleming, PhD, PsyD, and of my own doctoral level studies we have come to understand that God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.This why we have co-founded the Tru316 Foundation which is the home of The Eden Podcast, to "true" the verse of Genesis 3:16 and to spread the POSITIVE message of Eden!

Why?: If you're going to use an English translation of the Bible, which one is best? What?: The Bible has been translated into English in dozens of forms or translations. Each translation has strengths and each has weaknesses. Some translations were made by committees from a single Christian denomination. For example, the beloved King James or Authorized Version was translated by the Church of England, the New Jerusalem Bible was translated by Roman Catholics, and the Christian Standard Bible was translated by Southern Baptists. In each of these, the leanings of the denomination comes through, especially in difficult-to-translate sections. Other Bible versions have translators that represent a variety of Christian denominations. These cross-denominational translations include the English Standard Version, the New International Version, the New American Standard, and the Revised Standard Version, among many others. Even though the translators represent multiple denominations, the overall theology of the translations range from very liberal to very conservative. Some translations try to follow the original languages word-for-word as closely as possible and still make sense in English. Other translations try to bring the truths thought-for-thought into English so that the text has the same meaning for a modern audience that the original writings had for an ancient audience. Some translations use language simple enough for young children to understand. Others use more difficult English words so that more education is needed to understand. So What?: With all those differences, which English translation of the Bible is best? The answer is…it depends. It depends on what you want. It depends on what you are able to understand. People have been saved hearing the words from any of these translations. So What Now?: You should choose a translation that is trusted and is written in words you can understand. Then, you should choose to spend time in that Bible so that you can be the teacher God called you to be.

Many Christians use this verse to prove the existence of the Trinity. For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. (1 John 5:7) The issue with this verse is that it is universally recognized by Biblical scholars and historians, including thirty-two Christian scholars of the highest eminence backed by fifty cooperating Christian denominations, as being inserted by the Church later. Since it was proven that this verse is a fabrication, it has been deleted from some of the later Bibles, such as the Revised Standard Version and the New Revised Standard Version. 

If Jesus Christ were God, the Son of God, or part of God in the Trinity, God would not call Jesus Christ his servant in the Bible because a servant is held in lower esteem than one's children. However, God called Jesus Christ His servant because all humanity is servants of God, including Jesus Christ. Behold, my servant whom I have chosen... (Matthew 12:18).  He is our Master, and we are His slaves and servants. One also should know that the New Testament's Greek word for Son is pias and piada, which translates to servant, son, and manservant. Some translations of the Bible chose to translate this word to mean son when attributing it to Jesus Christ and translate the same word as servant to refer to almost everyone else. However, the Revised Standard Version has corrected this and returned the translation to mean 'servant.' 

Christians say that God, the Almighty, has a son, and His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, was conceived by Mary PBHF through the Holy Ghost. Jesus Christ was born in the form of a human child. Here is the verse that Christians often quote as proof that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) The word begotten is found in the King James Version, but this same word begotten is not found anywhere in the Revised Standard Version, New Revised Standard Version, nor in the World English Bible.  Here is another word deleted from the Bible by Christian scholars and Bible revisers as they discovered that this is another fabrication presented in the Bible! What book of God has words added to the text and subtracted from it? The Holy Quran certainly does not, as it contains the actual verbatim words of God! The fact that words have been added, which Christian scholars admit to, should be very concerning to Christians! Christians use the word begotten to prove Jesus Christ's divinity; however, the same word is used in the case of Prophet David PBUH in the Old Testament! I will declare the decree: The LORD has said to Me, 'You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. (Psalm 2:7) One verse in the Bible states that Jesus Christ is God's only begotten Son, but in another verse of the Bible, Prophet David PBUH is also the begotten Son of God. It is a contradiction of the Bible, the so-called word of God. Human hands have modified the Gospel as it is impossible for God the Almighty, the Perfect Being, to contradict Himself! The concept of Jesus Christ as the 'begotten son of god' can be proven false by the Bible itself.   If a Christian says that God, the Almighty, had begotten Jesus Christ, is he saying that God was only a duality and not part of a Trinity before Jesus Christ was born? Was God not complete then? Moreover, if God begot Jesus Christ, that would imply a point where Jesus Christ was not in existence, so he could not be God or a part of God as a God has no beginning nor an end! A God does not come into existence at a certain point as a God is not created, He is uncreated. Only created beings come into existence at a point in time. Moreover, Jesus Christ could not be co-eternal with God since God was in existence when Jesus was not! Furthermore, if Jesus Christ were the begotten Son, that would make God the begetter. If God is the begetter, how could Jesus then be the begotten? How could the begetter be 'begotten' if both are one and part of the Trinity?  The Holy Quran condemns these atrocious words of blasphemy, as begetting is an animal act that signifies the lower animal functions of sex. We are not to attribute such a quality to God, the All-High. Metaphorically speaking, we are all the children of God, and Jesus Christ can be viewed as being closer to God than the rest of us since he is a more faithful and righteous man than the rest of us, but it does not mean he is literally the Son of God! Humanity did not have to wait long to discover that these words were a fabrication inserted later, as God the Almighty told us in his final Book, the Holy Quran, about this blasphemy; doing so as He expresses His wrath in the strongest terms for those that attribute a son to Him--calling it highly inappropriate and atrocious for one to commit this sin: “And they say (Christians), 'The Most Merciful has taken [for Himself] a son'. You have done an atrocious thing. The heavens almost rupture therefrom, and the earth splits open, and the mountains collapse in devastation. That they attribute to the Most Merciful a son. And it is not appropriate for the Most Merciful that He should take a son” (Quran 19:

In today's episode, I will be reading Neville Goddards' lecture from 1964 titled "You Are My Witnesses." Here is an excerpt: "The book of Isaiah, in which he asked the question, Have I not told you from the beginning and declared it? Is there a God besides me? There is no God, I know not any Isaiah 44:8. Now the word translated God, and the first is the Elohim. The second is singular, and it's translated in the Revised Standard Version as a rock. So when we read it in the Revised Standard Version, is there a God besides me?" --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lynna-teer/support

Commons Church founding member Pastor Jeremy Duncan was not raised in a very religious home. However, as a young adult, Christianity gradually became the center of his life. A friends invitation to attend a church youth group led an introduction to his future wife and the pursuit of a bachelor's degree from Eastern Bible College. A Master's in Theology from Ambrose University followed as well as a decade of service as an associate pastor at Westside King's Church. During his time there, he began to ask bigger questions with intellectual honesty, spiritual passion and with Jesus as the center of his life. Paul and Jeremy discuss today's challenges with biblical translation and a modern understanding of how to interpret the Bible with intellectual honesty. Is the word "homosexual" the correct use of St. Paul's Greek word "Arsenokoitai" in 20th century translations? What about traditions and rituals? How do they help Christians in today's complex world? Finally, Paul asks Jeremy how he talks with agnostics and atheists who have disassociated themselves from religion and a belief in God. Background, Experience, EducationJeremy discusses his background growing up in a quasi-religious family. Church attendance consisted of holidays and seasons where his family would attend a Pentecostal denomination regularly. In high school, a friend invited him to a church youth group where he made friends and met his future wife. Christianity slowly became the center of his life. The church pastor encouraged Jeremy to go to Bible college for a bachelor's degree. He was hired at a church in Toronto where his mind began to expand outside of his environment. Jeremy admits he didn't have expansive experience with church culture since his was limited to the Pentecostal denomination, Bible college and a church in Toronto. He left church ministry and started his own business for several years until a church in Calgary offered him a job. He began to do things a little differently and started asking bigger questions. He wrestled with what it means to be a pastor. He was at the church in Calgary for 10 years while completing his master's. He enjoyed leading and was able to try some different things and shape Christian communities. After all his church experience, he was able to plant Commons Church in 2014. Commons offers Christians a new way to discuss the Gospel with intellectual honesty, acknowledgement of the complexities of biblical translation and even larger biblical issues. Commons is near a university. Its congregation is full of educated people who believe faith is important and who want to bring their education and reason into their spirituality. Homosexuality and Biblical Translation: Is it correct?Paul and Jeremy discuss the Bible as the “infallible Word of God” and his interpretation of what that means. Paul asks about the 1946 RSV Bible translation that introduced the English word “homosexual” to the 20th century Christianity for St. Paul's word “aresinacoitos.” St. Paul used the word to describe a sexual practice in 1st century Greco-Roman culture. For pastors and scholars like Jeremy, the word “homosexual” is considered an incorrect use of the word and what St. Paul was teaching. They discuss homosexuality from a 1st century perspective and what Jeremy believes St. Paul meant when describing non-consensual, predatory, unhealthy relationships vs. monogamous, covenant, healthy sexual relationships uncommon in the world St. Paul was living in. Jeremy believes when it comes to translation “there always has to be this open-handed humbleness with the Bible to say God is speaking to me through this but there will always be this level of miscommunication and uncertainty, but what is going to come through is the grace, compassion, and love Jesus is teaching us to embody."Paul asks Jeremy if he believes in a closed or open canon of scripture. They discuss what this mean, the different books and formulations of scripture within the Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant Bibles. Also, should the canon be open to include new books to help us have a full, flourishing life here on earth. In other words, Jeremy answers the question do we need need additional scripture to help mankind meet the full measure of their creation? Yes, it's closed but because we are constantly learning new things about ourselves with science, psychology, sexuality and these things have to be incorporated into our story. We are absorbing the canon so well that it becomes the water that we breathe in. This can help us make new judgement calls and face new challenges appropriately with guidance from the Holy Spirit. Jeremy argues that complex issues not addressed in the Bible, such as euthanasia or homosexuality, can be understood by being so deeply immersed in the story of God that Christians can wrestle and find the appropriate response.SIDE NOTE: The first time the word “homosexual” appeared in any bible was in the Revised Standard Version (RSV) published in February 11, 1946. In the RSV's translation of 1 Corinthians 6:9, the word “homosexual” was used in lieu of the Greek words “malakoi” and “arsenokoitai.” Researchers agree today these words translate loosely to “effeminacy,” and “pervert,” or “sexual pervert.” The decision to use the word “homosexual” instead of the accurate translations was voted on by the RSV committee. Traditions & Rituals: Are they good?Paul asks Jeremy his thoughts on religious traditions, rituals, the complexity of starting a Church with good intentions but then having to implement policies and rules that can overshadow what the founders initially intended. Jeremy explains the purpose of traditions and rituals. He discusses how they are powerful tools to shape our relationships with God and one another. He says “if you come from a certain religious tradition and it's meaningful for you, celebrate that, embrace that and hold onto it tightly but ask yourself how is it shaping me? Is it making me a kind person or is it turning me into a person who views things only my way. Jeremy says at Commons they believing in being 1) Intellectually honest 2) Spiritually passionate 3) Jesus at the center. Overall, we need to appreciate all the streams of Christianity. Talking with the agnostic and atheist who have disassociated themselves from religion and even belief in God.  Paul asked Jeremy the best way to communicate with those who no longer believe in God. Jeremy says Jesus is the closest we'll ever come to seeing divine love in our human story. All truth is God's truth. Whenever we encounter truth, then this is the same divinity we see in Jesus. Science is an expression of the same truth we see in Jesus. Every time there is generosity, selfless giving and love, regardless of the religious paradigm, that is an expression of Jesus. Though other religions partake in these expressions of love, Jeremy believes Jesus is the core and that Christianity is the fullest expression of this divinity. The more calm, patient and peaceful he is about converting them to his way of thinking then the more open people are to having real conversations about his convictions. Overtime, Jeremy has witnessed countless agnostics and atheists find a stream of Christianity that gives them a clear understanding of themselves and the universe. Jeremy discusses what it means to be born again. He compares this to God removing our narrow view of the world and helping us relearn everything with our eyes wide open. Jeremy Duncan, is the Lead Pastor M.A B/TS, Commons Church COMMONS CHURCH https://www.commons.church/jeremyBLOG: https://www.jeremyduncan.caLINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/duncanjeremy/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/realjeremyduncan-------------------------ABOUT THE HOST PAUL CARDALLSteinway & Sons considers Paul Cardall one of today's most prolific pianists.

The Revised Standard Version of Micah 6:8 summarizes the intent of today's podcast. “He has shown you, O man what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God?” Responsible and accountable leaders desire to do good as shown to us by God in His word. Responsible and accountable leaders are required to be just, even when others are not. Responsible and accountable leaders are to be kind even when others are not. Responsible and accountable leaders are to walk humbly with God even when others do not. When we are committed and determined to live by these principles and precepts, we eventually create a culture of change around us that makes the world a better place and we make the world a better place one life at a time.

This episode is the second of two where I cover the history of the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. The episode picks up in the middle of the history of the Revised Standard Version and then culminates with the New Revised Standard Version. I wrap it up with some of the controversies stemming from the decisions of the translation panel and draw a parallel to the King James Version. 

This episode is the first of two where I cover the history of the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. Actually, in this first part, I cover the history and details of the English Revised Version a direct decedent of the King James Version, the American Standard Version, and make it part of the way through the Revised Standard Version. I also touch on the changing source material for the versions and the evolution of the English language that was part of the reason for the revisions.
