Description:
|
Conclusion: Assemblies of God World Missions and Assemblies of God U.S. Missions . . . affirm that the practice of replacing 'familial' terms such as 'Father' for God or 'Son' for Jesus is unfaithful to God's revealed Word. Father and Son terminology must be literally translated in order to accurately express their revelatory truths... Specialized scripture 'translations' that remove Father and Son terminology alter the major biblical doctrines of the triune nature of God, His Fatherhood, Jesus' Sonship, Jesus' deity, and the adoption of believers as sons and children of God and their relating to God as the Heavenly Father, while providing the basis for textual corruption. Consequently, we will not endorse any 'translations' that do not literally translate Father and Son, and believe themt obe unfaithful to the Biblical manuscripts in their original languages.
This file contains the news item and a summary of the AG position on retaining Father/Son terminology in translating Scripture.
