My thinking is contained in the sermons below. Links to reputable scholars are listed as well.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."

John 1: 1-5

"Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me if you have understanding." Job 38: 4

The New International Version (1984) translation of the Bible was used throughout many of the sermons in this series.
Now that the copyright owner has determined to feminize any future translations of this once fine work - I can no longer recommend the translation
.
Neither do I have the time and energy to go back and rewrite hundreds of sermons where I had once gladly used the 1984 Edition of the NIV.
