I read a very interesting article in the Huffington Post yesterday. It ties in very well with Article of Faith #8.
The link to the article is here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-joel-hoffman/five-ways-your-bible-tran_b_1007058.html
Dr Hoffman shows many problems with the translation of the Bible. His article shows us why it is critical to have modern scripture, such as the Book of Mormon, which supports the teachings in the Bible, and which continues to teach us of Christ.
Many of the comments to his article show the confusion that can happen when people interpret the bible, based on it's many translations.
That just shows us why we "believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly"
Wonderful article to illustrate, Collin. Thank you. My favorite "don't take it literally word is "hamburger".
