NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Former Vice President Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, are separating after 40 years of marriage that included a White House run when their sunny relationship offered a counterpoint to President Bill Clinton's philandering.
According to an e-mail circulated among the couple's associates on Tuesday, the Gores said it was "a mutual and mutually supportive decision that we have made together following a process of long and careful consideration."
Gore spokeswoman Kalee Kreider confirmed the statement came from the Gores, but declined to comment further.
The Gores were telling friends they "grew apart" after 40 years of marriage and there was no affair involved, according to two longtime close associates and family friends, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because it was a personal matter....
Staying on topic, something Mr. Gore apparently didn't do,
Ecclesiastes 9 9 Enjoy life with the woman whom you love all the days of your fleeting life which He has given to you under the sun; for this is your reward in life, and in your toil in which you have labored under the sun. Malachi 2 14 "Yet you say, 'For what reason?' Because the LORD has been a witness between you and the wife of your youth, against whom you have dealt treacherously, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant. 15 "But not one has done so who has a remnant of the Spirit. And what did that one do while he was seeking a godly offspring? Take heed then, to your spirit, and let no one deal treacherously against the wife of your youth. 1 Corinthians 7 2 But because of immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.---NASB
Matthew 19 3 And some Pharisees came to Him, testing Him, and saying, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any cause at all?" 4 And He answered and said, "Have you not read, that He who created them from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE, 5 and said, 'FOR THIS CAUSE A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, AND SHALL CLEAVE TO HIS WIFE; AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH'? 6 "Consequently they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."---NASB
Oh,
Ankerberg and Weldon wrote: Remember that it was the KJV translators themselves who stated in their original preface that the very purpose of their translation was to provide God’s Word in a readable and understandable fashion. They recognized and accepted the translation work that had been done before them. So then how can anyone logically argue that they would object to modern translations being done today for the same purpose?

What, you think the [A]nglican [V]ersion (a Laodicean church that created a Sardis Bible!) is even a good Bible, God may only allowed a certain amount of corruption into it, The Preface to the King James Version And the King James Only position shows that even the translators of the AV expected better versions to come out.
So, what Bible in English, even an updated AV do you prefer because no decent Bible can kept in a foreign tongue such as Elizabethan English, Comparing Bible Translations:...English Style

Matthew 19:7-9 KJV They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
The word for fornication in Matthew 19:9 in the Greek is "porneia":

Wow that looks like a great series on Jeremiah, I might go through all that myself, as I love to hear preaching from Canada which is all Authorised Version. Those good Canadians sure know a thing or two about what milk and meat is good for them.

"And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for *immorality*, and marries another woman commits adultery."
So previously (AV), *fornication* was the ONLY ground for divorce; but now, because of the NASB, you can divorce if your spouse is simply *immoral*.
Jessica Dawson, and interesting example, and it shows why one should use a Bible in contemporary North American English! The so-called informal meaning for "put away" is to kill!
1 Corinthians 14:9 So also you, unless you utter by the tongue speech that is clear, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will be speaking into the air.---NASB
While this is not the thread to be doing it on, I wonder why these gentlemen at least don't point out the modern conversion to English of the [A]nglican [V]ersion they like best? It is a moot question, except discussing Bible versions.

You are quite right to castigate and censure sermonaudio for phasing out the members surveys, within which was a most suitable survey entitled "Which Bible Version Do You Use" and which was the ideal ground for debate on the issue, which issue is crucial, for if we have not the word of God in neither Hebrew, nor Greek, nor Latin, nor especially in English, then our Christian belief structures including statements of faith, confessions, sermons on inerrancy etc. will have to be reviewed and possibly abolished, maybe along with our own profession of faith and the only solution would be to...............................

Please Jim, and all your opponants, fill All these threads with Translation arguments. None of us really want to see remarks regarding the news item. We are all hoping to see these threads devoted to Transltion Arguments. After all, there is no thread dedicated to the subject. I think we need to stop even listening to sermons unless they deal with the translation debate. BTW; everyone knows that if you post One more argument, you will persuade Jim to use the AV. And Jim knows, without a shadow of a doubt, that if he gives us one more Link, we will all be convinced to use the NASB. Even though you post a Full 500 times. And don't forget the people that will be so blinded with Righteous Indignation at the first glance of my post, that they will post attacks, not realizing that they are the very people I'm refering to. So please, lets see it again on this thread of Al Gores divorce, as wel as All Posts. What is the chief aim of threads? The nasb,No the kjv. The nasb, No the kjv. The nasb, No, the kjv.

By Catholic you mean RC, rather than the universal Bible of the true church?
Lest we forget the KJV was the catholic and true ecumenical Bible in the positive theological sense that it was 'the' evangelical Bible for some centuries blessed and owned by the HS.
What was 'the' Bible of the last Great Awakening? The NIV or your own modern version
