Subject: What is your take on Westcott and Hort? |
Bible Note: 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 |
