Thank you for your well wishes and blessings, pede.

I understand what you mean now. Thank you so much, I never would have realized this otherwise. Matthew 18:11 was really strange for me, but it's unforgivable for these translators to remove so many instances of Christ's love for us without some motivator. It makes Him seem cold. For their intention of capturing the "emotion" of God's Word instead of literal translation, they left out His Love.

And that I cannot condone.

Thank you so much again. God bless you and your family and may we all make it out safe in these trying times.

It's amazing how after so many years on TD I still manage to get red pilled!
