New Bible Version For Muslim Worship

Common Sense Commentary:
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. Rev.21:18-20

From Gary North's Godfather Politics (Mafia term suggests its likeness to our Gov. RB)

Now, another new Bible version is soon to be on the market and from what I have read and seen so far, may be one of the worst Bible versions to be printed yet. And the thing that shocks me the most is that it is being produced by what I thought were respectable groups including Wycliffe Bible Translations, the Summer Institute of Linguistics and Frontiers.
This new Bible is being promoted as a Muslim friendly Bible where the translators, or should I say butchers, have removed all words and wording that might be offensive to Muslims. They have eliminated any references to God as ‘Father’ or Jesus as the ‘Son of God’. One example I saw was Matthew 28:19 which reads,
“Baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
And changing it to this:
“Cleanse them by water in the name of Allah, his Messiah and his Holy Spirit.”
(Baptism reflects Christ's death, burial & resurrection not a bath. RB)
“Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.”
