Mr Malcom Watts gives an encouraging message taken from the words in Jeremiah 9.3--'And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies- but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth- for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.'--To become a member of the Society visit- tbsbibles.org-AboutMembership

Upholding the Word of God. One of the Society's aims is to uphold the inspired, inerrant, preserved Word of God. The reliability of the Bible should be of uttermost concern to every believer, and it is very important to have a clear understanding of the doctrine of preservation and inspiration. This video looks at these doctrines and explains why the Society seeks to uphold them.--This video is the fifth in a series 'The Word of God among all Nations' which looks at various aspects of the Society's work- translating, publishing, distributing, promoting, and upholding the Word of God.--To learn more about the Trinitarian Bible Society- www.tbsbibles.org-To learn more about the Doctrine of Scripture- www.tbsbibles.org-DoctrineofScripture-To learn more about the work- www.tbsbibles.org-OurWork

Mr G.D. Buss bases his message on Psalm 40.7-8 and asks three questions- --1. Who wrote the book---2. For what purpose is the book written-- -3. How we are to use the book--

It would be remiss of us not to recognise the anniversary of Martin Luther's New Testament translation. First published in 1522 it was the vanguard for Reformation translations that would shape the church and Christianity today. Luther completed this translation over a number of months while in Wartburg Castle. He was the subject of a staged kidnapping by Fredrick II while returning to Wittenberg from Worms, and remained in Wartburg Castle from May 1521 to March 1522. Concealed under the name of 'Knight George' he translated the New Testament into German, working from the Greek rather than the Latin as most previous translators into German had done. Luther used the skills of colleagues at Wittenberg to ensure linguistic accuracy- Philip Melanchthon is believed to have supplied feedback on this edition of the New Testament and then a larger team for the whole Bible. The New Testament was published in 1522, six months after he left Wartburg.
