The Literal Majority Translation (LMT) is the result of years of translating the New Testament, a chapter each week, for the Scripture readings
at Lord Jesus Christ Assembly in Indiana, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. Being an elder therein, I sought to obey 1 Tim. 4:13, while giving to the church
something that they couldn’t get on their own, reading one of the conventional translations. We began to teach from those translations as
well. It was then suggested to me by numerous of the congregation and other believers that we publish the assembly’s translation of the
New Testament. The first portion published was of the Gospels and Acts, distributed at a Christocentric Conference hosted by our assembly
in 2008. The Lord Jesus Christ said, “You received freely; give freely.” (Mt. 10:8). Because of this principle, no price is ever to be placed on the Literal Majority Translation. It is copyrighted and strictly forbidden to be sold. Since the Literal Majority Translation is a copyrighted work, permission to record, tape, reproduce, or quote in writing, should be sought from the translator. This is not meant to be restrictive to any who desire to use it to edify the Body of the Christ and glorify God. It is meant to be restrictive to those who would use it otherwise. Should anyone with a reasonable God-honoring purpose of any kind desire to copy and distribute it to others, you will find me more than compliant.

Additional Translated Books
(These books cannot be considered part of the Literal Majority Translation because they were not translated from the majority text. They are included here seperately for that reason. Although they cannot be included under the same title, these books were translated by the same person with the same diligence, reverence, and care as was used during the work on the Literal Majority Translation.) |
