NCCG/BCAY does not have a particular version of the Bible which it exclusively endorses. It has, however, singled out six which it prefers whilst its own translation of the Bible is being undertaken: (1) The Hebraic-Roots Version (HRV), currently regarded by us as the most accurate NT version in print, and the preferred Hebraic-based version for congregational use; (2) the New King James Version (NKJV), favoured because of its felicity to the textus receptus and its beautiful literary style, is the preferred Greek-based version for congregational use; (3) the Institute for Scripture Research Version (ISRV) is is favoured as a study Bible for the Priesthood and is a compliment to the HRV; (4) the Jewish Bible (JNT) by David Stern for Priesthood study because it (a) conveys the essential Jewishness of the early Church, and (b) has a correct approach to the New Covenant Law which is largely absent from all other English-language translations (apart from the HRV and ISRV). It does, however, suffer from the same weaknesses as most modern English versions (like the NIV) inasmuch as it is based on tampered minority manuscripts; (5) the Concordant Version of the New Testament, probably the most accurate Greek New Testament but literal to a fault making it hard to follow for all but the most serious Bible students; and (6) the Amplified Version (Amp.V.), a Greek-based translation which beautifully conveys the mutliple senses of Greek words that other versions tend to obfuscate.

Though other translations are frequently used, such as the Authorised King James Version (KJV), Revised Standard Version (RSV), Moffatt Version (Moff.), New International Version (NIV), and others, most of these suffer from the same problems as the JNT and others based on minority Greek manuscripts. The Olive Branch contains a number of fresh translations of the Bible, mostly revisions of the NIV.

The New Covenant Version of the Bible (NCV), which has been in the process now for some years, will be based on the Hebrew Masoretic Text of the Old Testament, the best Hebrew/Aramaic texts of the New Testament, and the best Greek majority textus receptus. Current NCV revisions have mosly been based on the New King James Version, and contain elements of the NIV and JNT. It will become the Church's standard version when completed if the project is ever completed.
