Eureka - I Have Found the Rosetta Stone of the Bad-Bible-Boosters!This Explains Everything

Right on schedule!

I ran into some books about the Greek text of the New Testament, expecting a conservative, perhaps very conservative pair of authors to compare and contrast the KJV and other translations.

Instead I found a book as antagonistic to basic facts as scholarly works from the National Council of Marxist Churches - home of the RSV, NRSV, and ESV. The book's authors could not stop writing their slogan - KJV-Only - supposedly a sign of their sophistication and broad education.

The Rosetta Stone

The Rosetta Stone of translations - solved!

Every since WWII was over, people have been printing Bibles faster than greenback$, with similar results, reducing the value therefor. People get wrapped up in comparisons, localities, editors, and styles of translating.

I am writing to inform you that the translations do not matter at all. The secret is the Greek text alone. A gaggle of text critics, with solid backing from the Vatican, adopted Codex Vatican and Codex Sinaiticus as the linch-pins of the "revised" King James Bible.

The KJV Revision apostates of England and America worked together with the secretly printed Westcott-Hort Greek New Testament. They radicals brought out the still-born English dud in 1881, and no one wanted it. Warehouses were full of the copies because it was so badly done and impossible to fix.

Almost 150 years later, the collaboration on the Greek text has established the "real" New Testament. That continues to draw mild rebukes, but nothing more. Denominations are content to sell all kinds of translations (even the KJV) while proclaiming freedom, creativity, and the ever "now."

The vast population of seminary graduates, mostly numbskulls, poorly educated and yet haughty about their vast studies. The mainline seminary graduates are probably 90% incapable of reading the Gospel of John in Greek and translating it. That is child's play compared to comparing texts, theories, and authorities.

Riddle me this - "What keeps clever scholars from forging documents the way the 19th century scribe did to create the codex called Sinaiticus, designated Aleph to make it sound so ancient?" 

Nor should we ignore the venality of Rome, with fraudulent discoveries to establish Rome-centric dogma and corruption.

The KJV Revision was intended to be a very modest edition, Greek and English, but the blasphemers kidnapped the project, a failure that emerged anew as the Greek text behind all future New Testaments.

The heroes are:

1. Constantin Tischendorf
2. Westcott and Hort
3. Eberhard Nestle
4. Kurt and Barbara Aland
5. Bruce Metzger
6. Many more, nodding in agreement.

The Great Biblical Perversion - Replacing the KJV and Majority Text.WELS New Calvinistic Hymnal Is All NIV

 

Today we have fairly dense fog, which reminds me of Kurt Aland's boast. All the denominations have united with the Church of Rome to produce the snip and clip, copy and paste text of the Bible. Aland calls it the "Standard Text." They have expelled the Majority Text, used since the Reformation.

 Barbara and Kurt Aland

Apparently the earlier name - the Eclectic Text - did not roll smoothly off the tongue - or brain. Eclectic gave away the truth - they assembled a text that is not found anywhere in this universe, picking and choosing, and constantly changing their minds. A new edition of "the Greek text" can have thousands of changes, but no matter - they are in charge.

 Between the *** - WELS has no self-awareness about their pick of the worst translation ever, but it does deceitfully promote OJ.

Hands off the Bible! - WELS Fulminations in Royal Purple

The Bible is God’s Word. He doesn’t want us to pick and choose what we believe.

A few men and even fewer women made those choices.

Rev. Simpleton (MDiv, Ft. Wayne, DMin Fuller Seminary) is satisfied. "Now we have a standard text!" 

No so fast. Each new translation (paraphrase) picks and chooses the text they use for their English version and carry on a footnote debate with that. The highly promoted ones - NIV, NRSV, ESV - do not agree with each other, except for rejecting the Majority Text and the KJV.

The New KJV changes its English, with new editions, whenever the itch is there. They also have quasi-KJV English footnotes smooching up to Kurt Aland. M is for Majority Text and NU is for Nestle-Aland-United Bible Societies. This accentuates the propaganda that the modern text critics have the oldest, best, most accurate original.

I have quite a pile of books on text criticism, so one fact struck me - Vaticanus (B) is a ghostly figure with very little said about it. Vaticanus has supposedly been owned by the Vatican for centuries and was completely ignored. Although it is newly promoted as the co-exemplar with Sinaiticus, the codex was ignored until recent times and disagrees with Aleph extensively.

Another fun fact - they often show a type set version of an old text because the original is extremely difficult to read. So what people see is really an edition, not the real thing at all, even if they could translate what they see.

I have used the Greek New Testament for 55 years and I would not call myself an expert, so I truly wonder if all the New Testament professors in Lutheran colleges and seminaries really know what they are promoting with their modern texts and their hatred of the KJV and the Majority Text. It is easy for academics to fall into a rut of school matters, denominational busywork, and other distractions. "Synod says" solves so many problems.

 Eugene Nida wanted to get as far away from the text as possible - hence the Spanish Good News for Modern Man as the stepping stone for radical bad Bibles - TEV.

Eugene Nida was there the whole time, working away from the text and translation of the KJV. We could call him the Hort of 20th century, tremendously powerful from his century of connections, influential posts, and rewards. 

Has the English language improved from the simpleton translations sold to the public? Each new edition is worse than the previous one.
