Subject: [TruthTalk] Perverting the words
of the living God
Now Bill, got to tell it like it is. I'm just reading
how Nestle and Aland were evolutionists and Westcott and Hort were only
nominally orthodox in theology, both denied Biblical inerrancy and promoted
spiritism and racism. Nestle and Aland, like Kittel were German theological
liberals... What's so good about all that? As the old saying goes, no
smoke without fire...jt

Oh please. When new manuscript evidence is
discovered, a new edition is released with notes in the lower margin
explaining the nature of the discovery. It's only when the evidence contains a
very high degree of probability concerning authenticity that the actual text
is changed, reflecting the updated evidence. The variant is then placed in the
margin, with explanatory details as to why the change. You guys should be
journalists for CNN; you can make anything sound seedy. Bill
Please do, I will be
looking fwd to that. I don't know a whole lot about German
theologians
other than things began to change for the worse
when their textual criticism began to
permeate the Seminaries in this country. I had
heard of Westcott & Hort but not this
Nestle/Aland pair. jt

I
have a lot of problems with the NA text.
When they finally get it right I
will give you a critique.
Right now we are at revision 26 - revised
corrected new improved edition and counting, right?
You should avoid like the plague, the Wescott & Hort text -
Nest/Aland any edition
Kevin. A true scholar is one who can separate his personal
views from the task he is qualified
to perform. The guy who cannot do that is just a well
educated sectarian. All you have proven
is the former. So you don't agree with Aland in
theory. That does not change the fact that he
and others did a monumental work in this most recent text (and the
others). Do you have
some textual criticism. I was quoting the text with no reference
to Aland's theology. Aren't you
the guy who thinks the KJ is the inspired version? John
