I base my New Testament translations on the Textus Receptus (TR), specifically F.H.A. Scrivener’s 1881 edition, because I believe God has preserved His Word for us (Psalm 119:89, Matthew 24:35). The TR, meaning “Received Text,” was the Greek foundation for the King James Version, refined by Scrivener to mirror the 1611 translators’ work. While scholars debate manuscript variants—like the Byzantine text behind the TR versus the Alexandrian Critical Text—I trust the TR reflects God’s promise of an enduring Word, not a text still “in progress.” Scrivener’s careful reconstruction, drawing from Stephanus and Beza, aligns with my faith that Scripture is settled (1 Peter 1:23–25). I use it to translate verses like III John 1:1, keeping the original intent alive. For deeper study, explore My Translations or check resources like R.B. Ouellette’s A More Sure Word.
