This is an answer to prayer.\u00a0 There was a Taiwanese man studying in America\u00a0to become\u00a0a pastor who i got in contact with on the internet in 2001, and he translated the 1858 Great Controversy book into Chinese, only wanting as payment a Japanese version of the Bible which i gladly sent him.\u00a0 I did notice some things in his translation which made me very hesitant to even put it on the internet, let alone print it.\u00a0 For example, the title of the book he translated “The Great Controversy Between Christ and His Angels, and Satan and His Angels” as just “The Great Controversy”.\u00a0 He also did (didn’t do) some other things as this email received today shows.<\/p>\n

About 10 days ago in Malaysia i met a young Malaysian lady fluent in Chinese who showed a great knowledge of, and desire to spread Spirit of Prophecy material.\u00a0 When asked if she was interested in translating this 1858gc book, she showed eagerness, and praise God, today she sends me this email!<\/p>\n

After having it translated poorly once, then promised to be translated by a lady in Vietnam and a pastor in Malaysia, finally it looks like things are moving forward to get this book into Mandarin.\u00a0 This encouragement is just what i need before going to the ASI convention and displaying this book in the various languages tomorrow.\u00a0 Thank you Jesus \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

————————————————-<\/p>\n

I guess you’ll be really pleased to read this: I’ve actually started translating the 1858 “GC”. So far, I’ve finished the title, the table of content, biographical sketch and the foreword.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Chinese translation that you gave me is really a poor one. It doesn’t have a table of content. He added his own words in the foreword.\u00a0 He wrote that there’re the 1858, 1884, 1888 versions of the “GC”. I didn’t see the same in the English version.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since he’s a Taiwanese, he used the traditional version of Chinese font in his translation. I’m using the simplified version since all Chinese in the world except the Taiwanese are using it. So, I can’t just make improvement on his work. I’ve to start all over from scratch. However, I did go through the correspondent portions of his translation while I’m working on mine.<\/p>\n

I’ll try my best though I can’t tell you for sure when I’ll\u00a0finish the translation. I’ve been quite free most of the time prior to
\nmeeting you, but more “work” has been given me since the end of July.
