A blacker font would help.

Not only will we account for how our lives were spent here on earth but also whatever resources God gave us we will account how we used them what purposes and also interests gained on them

Comment on Why I Switched to the New Living Translation by Jim Goodwin /sites/nlt/2022/02/23/why-i-switched-to-the-new-living-translation/#comment-4944 Fri, 23 Feb 2024 18:28:55 +0000 https://wpmu3.northcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com/nlt/?p=5978#comment-4944 .]]> In reply to Evie Polsley.

Bonnie thanks for your reply…I find NLT easy to understand and read. I have both NIV study Bible (passed on from my wife…she’s with Jesus now) and a newly acquired ESV study Bible and I like all three plus the MSG. I discovered the YouVersion app several years ago and really like the fact you can choose any version you wish to read on your devise or computer. One Bible reading program for daily reading I like is Bible Recap with Tara Lee Cobble found there. (Website also)
Thanks again great comments. 😊.

We give them, at least here where I live in Pennsylvania a NLT Bible because they like to come to our campaigners groups which is for new Christians or those youth thinking about it and want to come where their friends are and even though they may not be a Christian yet, This gives them an easy to read and easy to understand Bible that they can read in their spare time and not need help interpreting what the Bible says to them as they would with other versions .
I believe the NLT is sixth grade second month reading level. As a retired teacher as well, this reading level is perfect for anyone to the point where, when I was asked to stand and read passages in church one day, I had several people come up to me and ask what version this was because they liked it and understood it much easier than they did their NKJ or their ESV or their NIV. Being on the Younglife committee here, we will continue to give freely to our kids the NLT version. After all one of Martin Luther’s main points in life was for the average everyday person to have a Bible and to freely understand what it means without having to rely on another person to interpret it for them. Thank you for allowing me to comment. The Bible in the NLT version is changing a lot of young people’s lives !

Comment on Word Studies in the New Living Translation: ἀδελφός (adelphos) by David Harper /sites/nlt/2023/09/27/word-studies-in-the-new-living-translation-%e1%bc%80%ce%b4%ce%b5%ce%bb%cf%86%cf%8c%cf%82-adelphos/#comment-4322 Tue, 10 Oct 2023 22:16:20 +0000 https://wpmu3.northcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com/nlt/?p=6386#comment-4322 Thank you for these word studies and insights into translation philosophy; they are always useful and enjoyable. The NLT is my primary reading and study Bible, but I also read the ESV Men’s Study Bible and my trusty old NASB from the 70s. It is so important to understand that context matters; indeed, it seems a principle understanding for students of the Word. Thanks again. Abundant blessings.
