DAVEH:To DavidM or any other TTers who wish to comment:This morning on the way to work I listened to my favorite Bible preacher on the radio....Steve Brown of Key Life Ministries in Orlando. He mentioned that the heading of... THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE to the HEBREWS .......is not part of the inerrant Bible, and that we really do not know who wrote the book of HEBREWS. Is that belief commonly accepted amongst most Protestants, or do many take offense at such a suggestion? For instance......would KJV ONLY folks find such a thought disagreeable? How about TTers.....Some like g have fought pretty hard to make me believe the Bible as we have in its modern form (translations) is inerrant. Would you disagree with SB, g?That is standard Protestant belief, Dave. Book headings are not considered part of the Bible. The original 1611 King James assigns Hebrews to Paul, but I think most modern King James Bibles will just say, "The Epistle to the Hebrews." Some think Barnabas wrote it. I tend to think it was Paul, but Barnabas is a close second choice. The standard Protestant belief is that the original text is inerrant. There are some 1611 King James folks who think that is inerrant. I think Kevin is in this camp. But most Protestants believe that the original Greek texts are what were inerrant. The quest then is to produce a text as close to the original as possible. Peace be with you. David Miller, Beverly Hills, Florida.
