YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A follow up to my first video where I addressed the first two objections - 1. Committee Translations are best, and 2. Brian Simmons isn't qualified to be a translator. In this video I cover three more objections. 3. TPT takes liberties with the text 4. TPT has a lot of mistakes 5. TPT is a paraphrase, not a translation. I also address things Mike Winger has gotten wrong in his commentary on TPT and Brian Simmons.

My first video on TPT

The Passion Translation is a new translation (or paraphrase if you prefer) produced by Brian Simmons, a former missionary to Panama and former pastor in Connecticut. He began the project in 2011 after a visitation from the Lord, in an effort to provide a vibrant translation that communicates God's heart of love. The critics have not exactly embraced TPT but the main motivation to do this 2-part video response was the attack on Dr. Simmons' integrity by one Mike Winger. This video contains an overview of the objections to TPT and a rebuttal to Mike Winger's comments.
