Some Disagreements
Four disagreeable statements:
1) “Textual Critics perform an invaluable service by providing us with a Biblical text that closely approximates the original writings.”
More accurately they perform an incomparable confusion with Alexandrian manuscripts. ...Textual Critics think they can restore an 'original manuscript' which GOD LOST because of faulty preservation of His Holy Word! Nay Nay.
2) Textual Critic's doubts “Affect NO material questions of historic fact or of Christian faith and practice.”
More accurately they produce antagonistic attacks against infallibility and inerrancy.
3) “Knowledge of the historical circumstances surrounding the composition of a book is crucial to a proper understanding of its meaning.
The presence of the Holy Spirit is crucial, historical circumstances is but slightly enhancing.
4) “ONLY AFTER a study of ... is the scholar ready to do exegesis.”
This implies that the unschooled country preacher is unable to understand what God called him to preach!
