Transliteration Is Not Translation

This article begins with a revised and expanded version of the introduction to The Inheritance of the Believer, Volume 2. Its purpose is to explain why the author is beginning to use certain specific conventions in his translation of the biblical text. After that introduction, the article includes a complete translation of the Book of Galatians using the conventions he explains in the introduction. Specifically, he begins to use the terms anointed and anointing instead of the transliteration “Christ” to show how Paul refers to The Apostolic Teaching as an “anointing.”

The Forecast

The purpose of this column is to explain various weather-related parabolic images that relate to the Last Days and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The “forecast” in this edition points out what the Prophet Isaiah says about the Pretenders in control of the Church today.

Questions & Answers

The first answer points out the way in which ignorance of the parabolic image in which Jesus Christ is the Living Word of God leads to erroneous conclusions concerning the message of the Scriptures. The second ridicules an individual who accuses the author of making “some rather confusing statements” before facetiously asking how he is supposed to “help” “pass on” the Truth when the author “keeps it to himself” (completely ignoring the fact that the things the author teaches are already readily available through The Voice of Elijah^®). The final answer is a response to a question as to whether one can believe a lie and still be saved.
