The Mirror Translation is a paraphrased translation from the original text.
While strictly following the literal meaning of the original text, sentences have been constructed so that the larger meaning is continually emphasized by means of an expanded text. Some clarifying notes are included in italics.
This is a paraphrased study rather than a literal translation. While the detailed shades of meaning of every Greek word have been closely studied, this is done taking into account the consistent context of the entire chapter within the wider epistle, and bearing in mind the full context of Jesus and his finished work, which is what the message of the Bible is all about.
We are at last at the second phase of our strategy that every person alive would have a copy of the Mirror Translation available in their own language! To date we made it available free of charge, but knew that to reach the world it will require funds and the involvement of as many other organisations as possible. This is now quickly becoming a growing reality!
The Mirror Translation is now finally ready to be officially launched and published in book and e-book format. We are connecting with partners all over the world to help with distribution and supporting the cause. We will keep this site www.mirrorfriends.com updated over the next few months as progress is made. Our purpose is to raise enough funds from sales and donations to reach those who cannot afford it. We see this publication as a tremendous key to unveil the truth and glory that has been hidden from man. If you would like to partner with us, please visit www.mirrorfriends.com. Please note that orders for books/e-books will only be shipped in May as the first batch are printed. We would also like to sincerely thank all of you for your support and love over the many years we have walked this road - may our relationship continue to grow and be a fragrance of Him we love with all our hearts!
Please read the testimonies from people all over the world that have discovered the reality of our likeness in Christ through study of the Mirror Message (click here).
Here is a particularly beautiful response an old friend of ours posted on facebook regarding the integrity of the Mirror Translation:
Hello, precious defender of The Word. Allow me to add to this line of thought of yours if you will be so patient with me, please. The Bible (The Old King James Version) as we read it, was commisioned to be written by Constantine The Pagan (A King in the early One Hundreds of the Christian Calender) and the Papacy of that time. Many, Many chapters, books even, and words have been "modified" to suit the time in which it was written as determined by a council of (at the time) leaders of the world. These leaders also birthed the Knights Templar's cruisades. They were, I doubt, all filled with the Holy Spirit, and most certainly not all (as history in fact proves without question) intervening on God's behalf. Yet, Sacred Scripture, no matter how watered down, still remains sacred. They could not deviate too much, as the other holy scriptures NOT within their reach to alter, CONFIRMED most of what The King James version now tells us. (I refer here to the most ancient scriptures of other religions such as The Vedas in Sanskrit, The Qu'aran, The Talmud, -please forgive me if I made any spelling errors here- the Tibetan Books of The Living and The Dead, The Eqyptian and Roman Scrolls - those NOT burned in the libraries of Alexandria, deliberately, as an act of war- as well as the most recent discoveries no less than fifty-odd years ago; of The Dead Sea Scrolls. (Two decades of my life, dedicated to finding TRUTH, and resulting in me now at the studious level of PHD-candidate in Spiritual Studies, has seen me unravel and over-analyse every detail of the Word...How it was written, WHO wrote it as it stands, and WHY it was presented to Christians in the format it is in, currently) So. In conclusion, I am merely saying this : My heart is BURNING with excitement at this (and Francois clearly states this on his website alongside information on The Mirror Translation) ADDITIONAL AID in the Study to the Word. (As I myself have three-hundred PLUS, books under my belt and in my head and often next to me while I read the word to help/aid me in absorbing the FULL INTENTION behind the written word as INSPIRED by the Holy Spirit) My heart soars at the conclusion of a life-time of dedication to the honest and purist translation from the Greek scriptures as they were written. (Learning to understand ancient Greek was really hard too, for me, in any event) It pays to be conservative. Thank You for every word you said, for I have been aching to say some of these things to so many of my Christian brothers. I was shocked to learn this was not as common a knowledge as I accepted. My Soul is overjoyed at the prospect of learning MORE and more and more....I wish you blessings in abundance and and excitement to match my own.
