There are lots of false assumptions here. Jesus called people serpents and white washed tombs. Telling a person that they have a lack of spiritual discernment does not come even close to doing that. This statement was also not addressed to you but to another. It does not also even...

Before you said the TR is based on late manuscripts that are medieval. I proved otherwise. Now you are moving the goal posts into some other direction that does not change the fact that the Byzantine text has early support. I am also not going to presume what form that TR/KJV line had existed...

However, you do not have any spiritual discernment to see the larger picture. One of the first attacks by the serpent (the devil) was that he said, "Yea, hath God said...?" That is exactly what your Modern Bibles do. They put brackets and double brackets around the text. It's as if the serpent...

I believe your logic is flawed, my friend. Codex Washingtonianus's non-Byzantine portions do not somehow cancel its Byzantine portions. If Matthew is substantially Byzantine, then a recognizably Byzantine form of Matthew existed by the time represented by that exemplar. You can argue about how...

I disagree. Extreme heretics created an artifical never before seen Greek text by smashing two manuscripts together. Then it was refined over the years into the Nestle and Aland tradition, and there is no end in sight with this text changing. Even now, you got that stupid reading that was...

Erasmus was not working on behalf of the Vatican unlike Carlo Maria Martini. The 27th edition of the Nestle and Aland says it was supervised by the Vatican and Martini worked on the NA 27. Plus, later the Catholic Church wanted to destroy Erasmus' TR. It has been said that Erasmus was the...

That's not true. There is very early evidence for Textus Receptus readings. Codex Washingtonianus (W/032) is generally dated to the fourth or fifth century. In her study of the manuscript, Megan Leigh Burnett states that the scholarly evidence is strong enough that there is a “consensus that...

Westcott had communion with the saints according to the record of one of his own sons. You can read it here: Source: Arthur Westcott, Life and Letters of Brooke Foss Westcott, Vol. I (London: Macmillan, 1903), pp. 312–313...

If you were paying attention to the other discussions and posts I have made in this thread, you would notice that I do engage with people who bring up the textual issues. I have discussed the Greek underlying the KJV and dealt directly with the textual evidence. You are not doing that. Yet, you...

Not sure how this even contributes to the issues involved. You seem to be interested in just making one liner jabs as if that somehow proves anything. Once you grow up and you desire to talk about the actual issues involved, let me know. So far, it just seems like you are making clever one liner...

Lexical and Greek Support for ἐὰν μὴ Having the Sense of ἀλλά (“But”) in Galatians 2:16: Galatians 2:16 in Beza’s 1598 Textus Receptus reads: οὐ δικαιοῦται ἄνθρωπος ἐξ ἔργων νόμου ἐὰν μὴ διὰ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ The KJV renders the construction: a man is not justified by the works of the...

After investigating this more, I need to make a few corrections on this. The Family 35 English translation is based on a Byzantine text and not the Critical Text. But it has the same Greek word that the ECM and UBS 6 has. Also the NA29 is not coming out until February. The UBS 6 is currently...

We are all part of some movement, tradition, or group within Christianity based on particular beliefs that we understand to reflect the teachings of Jesus Christ as revealed in Scripture. None of us approaches the Bible in a complete vacuum, entirely disconnected from what other Christians have...

Sure it does. Unless you have posted these arguments in some alternate universe or something. If I missed anything you said in this thread on your so-called-meaty arguments that would hold up as evidence in a court of law, then please provide post numbers. However, I do not think you will be...

I am not really interested in playing games where I have to pull teeth just to get basic facts out of people. Tell me your position on the Bibliology topic upfront. Are you for the Critical Text and its scholarship? Are you Byzantine Priority? Are you for the Majority Text? Or do you hold...

First, the NA 29 was published not too long ago. So that most likely is the reason why many Modern English Bibles do not contain this reading. Second, the Family 35 New Testament with Commentary says: “I have become the Alpha and the Omega," (Revelation 21:6)...

No, you are the one playing games by refusing to talk to me straight and simply tell me what you really mean. Instead, I have had to practically pull teeth just to get clear answers out of you. Rather than addressing the topic directly, you keep making vague or mysterious comments and then...

In our many conversations on this topic, you have not once offered any truly meaty arguments in refutation of the points I have made for the biblical doctrines of the purity and preservation of God’s words, which naturally means that His preserved words would exist for us today. I highly doubt...

I said, I quote: "Jesus and His followers never shared today's post modernist view that God's words contained errors." ~ Quote by Bible Highlighter. You said in reply, I quote: "Most of your critics here probably don't believe that either." ~ Quote by Dino246. This implies that you are a...

Statements like this tell me that you have not really done your homework into this topic properly, and you have a false bias towards the Modern Bible Movement. Prove me wrong. Also, address the problems I brought up in the Critical Text Modern Bible Movement. If not, that just makes your...
