We started working on this version in 1999, and expected to finish in 2000, that is why it is named Version 2000.
The Holy Apostolic New Testament will be published by the Christian Apostolic Press.
We are currently in the process of setting up a paypal account and expect to have the first published print copies this month.
We plan to issue a 2nd edition perhaps in a couple of years depending on several factors.
Who is "we"? Credentials?
Isn't your translation just a King James Version with changes? Yet you are charging for it?

Everybody charges for the Bible, go into any bookstore and see for yourself.
There was a lot of work and effort into these changes.
Does Mcdonalds charges for changing some plain eggs & bread into a mcmuffin?
Do you complain and ask them why they charge for the mcmuffin since it just some eggs and bread?

What kind of changes were there?

Bad analogy FZW.
An egg mcmuffin is just something barely edible that looks like an egg on something that looks like a muffin.
Just like their fried cardboard tasting fries and soft shoe leather "beef" pattie and their cellulose shakes.

Who is the "we"? And what are your credentials for this sort of work?

This is incredibly embarrassing and sad.

Re: The Apostolic New Testament soon to be publish
Funny how we were able to come up with the Apostolic doctrine using these other "trinitarian" translations, but now there is a need to "clear the air." This is a bad idea. I'm concerned that as the bathwater goes out, at least some of the baby will go with it...I need to see credentials and a truly accountable process before I would consider reading your version. BTW, if you didn't translate it from the Greek, it's not a translation. It's a paraphrase, like the Living Bible or the Message.
