Bible translation selection

What is the version of the Bible that WELS suggests that we use?

I can suggest that you look at this document that evaluated six different Bible translations. While the Holman Christian Standard Bible in the document underwent a major revision in 2017 and was renamed the Christian Standard Bible, the remaining information in the document holds true. It should also be noted that the Evangelical Heritage Version (EHV) did not exist at the time this particular evaluation of Bible translations was prepared.

I would also suggest that you solicit your pastor’s help with this. He will be happy to guide you through the process of Bible translation selection and, perhaps, offer a personal recommendation or two.

What a day and age we live in, when God’s word is so readily available in our lives!
