The Bible

Correctors’ Bible

A Bible Correcting preacher with 6 years of Hebrew at Maranatha Seminary and also a few years of Greek there asked me to produce one verse of scripture that demanded that we use the King James Bible or that the King James Bible was the only perfect and inspired Bible.

At first, this preacher listed a few dozen bibles plus foreign bibles and manuscripts that he thought were inspired, but only to some degree, which even included the KJB. I responded with these questions, which he refused to answer, claiming that they were illogical and too long of a list for his available time. Bible Correctors have all the questions and objections but do not have any answers.       – Herb Evans

1. Are there really degrees of inspiration in the various bibles that you listed?

2. Are the bibles that you listed as inspired to some degree to be considered to be inspired separately or altogether?

3. Are the Bibles that you listed, as being inspired to a degree, to be considered partially or completely inspired?

4. Is the JW New World Translation inspired to some degree?

5. What are the criteria for a Bible to be inspired to some degree?

6. Can translations and copies be inspired to some degree?

7. How do you determine the degree of inspiration of the various bibles, which you listed?

8. Do you have one word of scripture to prove your theory that there once existed fully inspired Original Autographs?

9. Do you have one word of scripture to prove a 66 book Bible?

10. If you have a verse to prove that there were once fully inspired Original Autographs, from which Bible do you get it?

11. Do you get it from an uninspired, errant, imperfect, fallible bible containing errors?

12. If you cannot prove the “Original Autographs only position” or even a 66 Book canon, then are you not creating unbiblical substantiated doubt (the charge you use on KJB onlies)?

13. If you try to prove from the scriptures that there were once fully inspired original Autographs, are you not admitting that there are scriptures extant today?

14. Where are these scriptures, and what is the specific name on the ones extant?

15. Are they fully Inspired scriptures or partially inspired?

16. Are they uninspired, fallible, imperfect, errant scriptures full of mistakes?

17. Can we use the latter (#16) to prove the fully inspired Originals once existed?

18. Can you prove that God did not give us an inerrant Bible beyond the Autographs -- with scripture?

19. If as you say, God did not tell us where the fully inspired scriptures are located, do you not have some kind of a mystical or ethereal Bible in all the texts, manuscripts, and translations?

20. Since you claim to believe in preservation of some kind, what are your mechanics for finding out what and where the fully inspired scriptures are?        -- By Herb Evans
