THE MIRROR is a translation by Francois du Toit from the original text of the New Testament and paraphrased in contemporary speech with in depth commentary. Endorsed, loved and read by church leaders and laymen globally: Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Dr C Baxter Kruger, Dr Steve McVey, Bob and Judith Mumford, etc. The Mirror will open your eyes to what Scripture has always been about: Christ, the Son of God, did not come to be an example for you, but of you! The incarnation (the eternal Word becoming man) is the most accurate and articulate translation. Jesus came to reveal you! Any sincere student of classical music would sensitively seek to capture and interpret the piece, so as not to distract from the original sound of the composition. To form a conclusion in the study of our origin would involve a peering over the Creator’s shoulder as it were, in order to gaze through his eyes and marvel at his anticipation. His invisible image and likeness is about to be unveiled in human form! The incarnation celebrates the fact that the destiny of the Word was not the page but tangible human life! The word of truth preserves God’s original idea in the resonance of our hearts. 2 Corinthians 3:2: Instead of an impressive certificate framed on my wall I have you framed in my heart! You are our Epistle written within us, an open letter speaking a global language; one that everyone can read[1] and recognize as their mother tongue! (The word [1]anaginosko, from ana, upward and ginosko, to know upward; thus to draw knowledge from a higher reference; from above; to recognize; to read with recognition.) 2 Corinthians 3:3: The fact that you are a Christ-Epistle shines as bright as day! This is what our ministry is all about. The Spirit of God is the living ink. Every trace of the Spirit’s influence on the heart is what gives permanence to this conversation. We are not talking law-language here; this is more dynamic and permanent than letters chiseled in stone. This conversation is embroidered in your inner consciousness. (It is the life of your design that grace echoes within you!) Behold how beautiful how valuable how loved you are! You will rediscover your identity in the very image of the invisible God. https://www.mirrorword.net Subscribe to Francois facebook updates http://www.facebook.com/francois.toit The Mirror Translation fb group http://www.facebook.com/groups/179109018883718 --- About Content Rights: Copyright © 2012 by Francois du Toit.

This Study Bible Rocks!
This is such a life-giving, wonderful paraphrase of Scripture. Every word oozes with the grace of God and points me to Jesus and my identity in Him. It reminds me daily of His eternal, abiding, unconditional love. I used to be completely opposed to the Mirror Study Bible, but I couldn’t deny the Holy Spirit’s presence and witness as I read from it. I kept coming back to the translation a little bit at a time when I was feeling stuck spiritually, and now I read from it every day, enjoying the amazing bliss of my inclusion in Jesus’ finished work. My faith rests in the reality of His love for me. I am so grateful that I do not have to earn His affection or approval, but that He has chosen me in Christ as His beloved, and called me His, long before I ever said “yes” to Him. This is the substance of my faith: knowing that I am in Him and that He is in me for all eternity. I am eternally secure because of His grace. And this is true for all of humanity! What wonderful news. Let our hearts awaken to the truth of God’s wonderful love for us. Go ahead and read the Mirror Study Bible!! I can’t wait to have a physical copy of the entire New Testament in my hands one day, and share it with everyone I know!
Amazing Notes
The Mirror Bible will refresh and encourage you. Every time I read it I am like, “wow wow wow!”
App needs tweaking
I love this translation, which has been life changing for me. I’ve tried the free App and now want to purchase the full version. The App will not give me an option for purchase and I could find no way to get help with this.
Great Bible
Please let me use the translations I purchased earlier.
.
Good app overall, but I’m giving them a 3 star because they took away the book of revelation from the app and I paid $20 to get access to all the books that they had available a year ago!!
Already purchased years ago, now pay again?
I love Francois interpretation. I reference this version almost every day. I recently updated and now must I pay…again? If so, I’m very discouraged that I have to buy it again. I can’t open the old app; there’s a new app I must log into. Can someone help me?
