How false bible translations distort repentance (Repentance In A Nutshell 26)
Channel: No Nonsense Christianity
Date: 2024-02-11

In this study, we will look at the history of Bible translations that have partially led to a false understanding of repentance, particularly how they (mis)translate some passages. This issue isn't exclusively reserved to modern translations though. 

I apologise that this is a very long video, I originally started this series titling it "In A Nutshell" because each video was supposed to be short, but you know how I tend to over explain things. I was tempted to split this into three separate videos but it took me several hours to do the editing, it would have  been rendered a waste of time if I had to make changes and I have very limited time to work on content.
