Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus

Good point, we all could learn from the early church fathers and I'm sure some would turn over in their graves at some of the "stuff" we come up with. God has blessed us inmmensly and we have even fought a civil war which I visited a battle ground at Picketts Mill today, I wonder what their thoughts were back then about TR,CodexVaticanus etc... I'm sure the wanted to just be free from beeing slaves to sin.

 

I knew it! I had read it somewhere thats what happenned! I'm sure it was presereved for a purpose but I wouldnt try and write a Bible from it! That's what happens, when man tries to figure out God! I know All thing work together for the good for those who love the Lord. People are wasteful and throw away alot of stuff here in the USA that is still useful, and food especially. I pray that the Lord returns soon and that there are more people saved so the Kingdom of God will rule over this sin cursed world!

 

Have you ever noticed when some one wants to be "POLITICALLY CORRECT" they use words like :"waste basket, lady of the night, package store, Alternate life style, Modern Versions,and many oter ufanisms to try and Justify ones Position in life> Call it what it really is that is why we have So many versions because some one got their feelings hurt. And the preacher did'nt shake their hand or something of the sort so they have to scratch their itchy ears to feel good. The truth is that we are all just Ignorrant sinners that deserve Hell and God in a good gesture sends His Only Beggotten Son and to Die for the likes of you and Me, shed His Precious blood, was Buried, and Three days later Rose again for our justification! I'm sorry folk this generation of Vipers that has corrupted the infallible Word of God will not go unpunished for their wicked deed! It is a Stench in the Nostrills of A Holy God! I will not Apologize for my words and will carry my Cross until the day of the Lord where Ican finally lay all my burdens down at the feet of Jesus My Lord! somebody say Amen!

 

Accurate so far as it goes.

However, Tischendorf obtained the NT from the monks intact and not consigned to the flames. As Tischendorf wrote, the abbot "took down from the corner of the room a bulky kind of volume wrapped up in a red cloth, and laid it before me." Not from the waste basket and wrapped for safekeeping.

Tischendorf was a tireless researcher, dedicated to estalishing the authentic NT text (the Masoretic having already been established as the authentic OT text), not in "corrupting" the Bible.

"But that which I think more highly of than all these flattering distinctions is, the conviction that Providence has given to our age, in which attacks on Christianity are so common, the Sinaitic Bible, to be to us a full and clear light as to what is the word written by God, and to assist us in defending the truth by establishing its authentic form." </font>[/QUOTE]Tischendorf may have been sincere but he was nonetheless a child of his generation. He accepted the scientific rationalism that produced the Higher Criticism and spawned the unbelieving liberalism of the early 20th century. </font>[/QUOTE]Sounds like Frankenstein

 

They are still trying to pump formaldahide into that dead Horse to keep it fresh looking eventually "This too shall pass" and the KJB will still be standing!

 

"There is Now no Condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"! And If I'm Bearing False witness then I'll Prove it to you that my witness is true! Who wrote the Bible? God. Who wrote the MV's? man! Simple enough; Now prove me wrong.
