How One Mistranslated Word Distorted the Gospel

By substituting the word ‘righteousness’ for the Greek word for justice, early translators unintentionally shifted the focus away from letting love transform us from the inside to a preoccupation with piety and religious performance. God’s love doesn’t cancel out his justice; his love fulfills it in our hearts.

This Changes Everything

What happened to the Gospel that made Christians more focused on managing sin, performing religious deeds, and trying to reach heaven rather than exploring a love so vast it would transform them with joy?

One simple word, mistranslated in our English Scriptures, has distorted our understanding of God’s purpose throughout history and has robbed the Gospel of its power to transform us from within and reveal His glory to the world.

Let coauthors Wayne Jacobsen and Tobie van der Westhuizen show you how this shift happened and why restoring the word Jesus used reconnects our salvation with his unfolding kingdom.

No doubt, it will change you in ways you can’t imagine. It might even alter the course of Christianity.
