We received the following news from a missionary who is out under the
Bible Baptist Fellowship International (P.O. Box 191, Springfield,
MO). Missionary Charles Ross says this:
"When I first met Brother Song Lee, he was hungry to learn all he
could about the word of God because there was very little Christian
literature in the Korean language. He began to translate Christian
books that ministered to him into Korean. As he studied the Korean
Bible and compared it with the King James English Bible, he began to
see many errors in the Korean translations. While studying Greek, he
obtained a copy of the Greek Textus Receptus, from which the King
James Version was translated. He discovered the existing Korean
translation was from the Alexandrian text from which the English
Revised Version had been translated. Thus he started awakening about
2 AM each morning to work five hours in translating the Korean New
Testament from the Greek Textus Receptus. In November, the complete
New Testament in the Korean language is scheduled for publication."
Brother Song Lee has been working with the BBF missionary, Brother
Charles Ross from the Mission Baptist Church in Soasomgtan, Korea.
The church has sacrificed financially, giving $5000 towards the
translation. $7000 more is needed in order to pay for the first
publication. We print this in case any of you are interested in
contacting Brother Charles Ross in regards to getting out a good solid
translation of the Korean Bible in their language.
