 Know Your God! God is Gracious
Prayer for the World
Question: How do we appreciate the Grace of God?
Bible translation and distribution
Answer: We appreciate the grace of God by focusing on God’s work not ours.
Christianity began in an environment of minority languages - Aramaic and Hebrew
- but spread into a world dominated by other languages such as Koine Greek. Often
Focus on God’s Gracious Work:
the Septuagint Greek version of the Old Testament was adopted over the original His work in,
Hebrew. Christianity has never adhered to the idea that the Scriptures should only
be read in the languages as originally written, like some other religious systems and 1. our state. (vs. 1-3, Col 2:13)
their sacred texts; as a result, translation into local languages for full comprehension
soon became an ongoing and praiseworthy preoccupation. By the 4th Century there
were Syriac, Coptic, Ethiopic, Gothic and Georgian translations, soon followed by
the Latin Vulgate.
2. our Savior. (4-7)
Major Bible publishers and distributors. Pray specifically for these ministries:

seekers into church membership. In 2000, 18.5 million Scriptures were provided
