1 | What is your take on Westcott and Hort? | Bible general Archive 2 | mark d seyler | 124305 | ||
I've been following the discussion regarding KJV vs. other translations. There has been a lot of good material presented. What is your take on the Westcott and Hort Greek New Testament. How widely used has this NT been in translating our modern versions. What about Westcott and Hort's well documented disdain for God's Word, and their background in the occult? I absolutely believe the infallability of God's Word, and that He will protect it against tampering, and will maintain the integrity of His message. | ||||||

Mark: This is pure poppycock! Westcott and Hort, have been so badly slandered it makes me ill. They had NOTHING to do that proves the garbage that missunformed Christian have repeated over and over and this lie has become gossip. You can use your search engine and go to Alpha and Omegis Ministry, Dr. James White, whom I went to college with, has this completly documented and you can download all the information you need. Nothing id more offensive than a ignorant Christian who refuses to see and believe the TRUTH, and continues to spread false information. This to me is a bad testimony. I for one believe cars are good and I drive one. But some still use horse and buggy and in 1611. Why sould anyone insist the King Jimmy is the best? Only those who choose to remain ignorant, unless they just love the KJV for its special language and it speaks to them. That is much different than being a KJV only cultist. Blessings. justme |

If you can receive this, I am an openhearted Christian who loves the Word and loves truth. I do not insist, or even believe, that the KJV is the only or the best. It's an excellent translation, but it's not the original autographs. I use every resource I can get my hands on to find out as best I can what God really said. And I have a serious issue with someone who, while they are engaged in occultic pursuits, sets out to tell the rest of us what should and should not be in the Bible. Isn't the occult something that we turn our backs to when we are born again? So how can I trust those who do not? (this is my personal issue) Is it really in keeping with the mission and purpose of this forum to engage in name calling "nothing is more offensive than a ignorant Christian who refuses to see and believe the TRUTH", "those who choose to remain ignorant", this judges my heart which you do not see, as well as going on to presume I am insistant on the KJV, which I am not. I understand that you phrased your harsh words in ways that you may disclaim your intent, but the attitude is easily seen. I have looked at some of Dr. White's material, he appears to be refuting a particular booklet, while not addressing my concerns. Perhaps he covers that in parts I have not read, it seems to me that he perpetuates the debate over particular translational points on statements made by a certain other person. Love in Christ, Mark |

Mark Let me add in you defense there are many "experts" that disagree with the position taken by doctor White on the subject of Hort and Westcott. Many defend as truth some of the irregularities in these men's lives. EdB |
