Bible Note: Greetings Grace and Truth! Since my name was brought into this discussion, I might as well clarify what it is that I actually believe! :-) I believe in the Innerrant, Plenary, and Confluent Inspiration of the original autographs of Scripture. 1) Innerrant: Without error in anything that it teaches. 2) Plenary: That every word of Scripture is inspired. 3) Confluent: That Scripture is a product of both Divine and Human will in the sense that God inspired the authors in such a way that their unique personalities shine through what they wrote. The question about Mk. 16:9-20 is whether or not it is Scripture - i.e. - was it in the original autographs or not? I have presented the evidence which demonstrates that it was not in the oldest manuscripts. It is only one of four various endings to Mark. So, which ending is the "real" ending? How does one decide? Who gets to decide? In my view, the long ending of Mark is not original; hence, it is not Scripture. So, I do believe in the inspiration of Scripture and so does Hank! The problem we have with Mark 16:16 is twofold: 1) It probably is not original. 2) And, it has been misinterpreted anyway! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
