Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s
Today is June 9, 2018 - in the 21 Century
June -- Juno's month
Middle English jun(e)
Old French juin
Old English junius
Latin Junius "of
Juno"
Latin Junius mensis "month of
Juno"
Junius had 30 days, until Numa when it had 29 days, until Julius when it
became 30 days long.
Juno is the principle goddess of the Roman
Pantheon. She is the goddess of marriage and the well-being of women. She is
the wife and sister of Jupiter. She is identified with the Greek goddess Hera.

Today’s Topic
Every wind of
doctrine
I can never go over this message enough
From the time of the Apostles unto now, almost 2000 years have passed.
Now there are so many false bible versions,
doctrines, social media platforms and fancy, Jewish looking websites and Jewish
Judaism acting people to deceive you.
Check your bible version on
this verse:
2 Corth. 2 [17] For we are not as many, which
corrupt the word of God:
Eph. 4[14] ...be no more children, tossed
to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the
sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive...
2 Cor.11 [4] For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus,
whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another
spirit, which ye have not received, or another
gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear (or put up) with
him.
Just think, almost 2000 years later,
how many Jesus’, spirits and gospels are there now to deceive you in many forms?
When speaking of bible versions, it is always
good to have two books, Hazardous Materials and New
Age Bible Versions by G. A. Riplinger
Here is a brief summary of these two books:
Hazardous Materials
Exposed are:
· Strong's Concordance Lexicons
· Bible Dictionaries by Vine, Zodhiates
· Word Studies by Vincent, Wuest, Trench
· Hebrew-English Dictionaries by Brown, Driver, and Briggs
· Greek-English Dictionaries by Moulton, Thayer, Danker, Liddell
· Greek and Hebrew texts by Metzger, Aland, Scrivener, Berry, Ginsburg, Green, Robinson, Hodges
·
And all Greek
and Hebrew Study Tools and Interlinears
IN THIS BOOK
You will learn such things as the connection
between new version editor and child molester C.J. Vaughan (whose all ‘boys’
school parades their lewd perversion in one, amongst the many never before
published photos in this book) and tools such as Strong’s Concordance, Vine’s
Expository Dictionary, the Unitarian J.H. Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon,
Moulton’s Lexicon and Vincent and Wuest’s
Word Studies.
Heresy trials deposed editors of the popular
Hebrew-English Lexicon by Brown, Driver, and Briggs and the New Testament
Greek-English Lexicon by Frederick Danker.
All Greek-English New Testament lexicons
plagiarize the first Greek-English lexicon written by Scott and Liddell, who
harbored the pedophile author of Alice in Wonderland, who took improper
photographs of Liddell’s child and remains a suspect in the Jack the Ripper
murder case.
The book demonstrates that Greek texts from UBS
to TBS fail to reach the perfection of the Holy Bible, where God’s words shall
not pass away.
Why are good Christians putting aside their inspired Bibles to look for light in conflicting and uninspired Greek & Hebrew tools, made by men who denied its truths?

A short history of the Gospels and letters
Many so-called Greek scholars from the past, just like today often use the phrase “according to the original Greek”. This leads one to believe that they have access to the original autograph manuscripts. They do not!
No one today has the original writings
themselves.
Let me repeat that again: the original autographical manuscripts of the Gospels and letters no longer exist.
They were written on perishable material and it is unlikely that they lasted more than a few years, let alone 20 centuries!
As you know, some people say they have the original Greek and the original Bible. First of all, there was no original Bible. At no time did the original autographical manuscripts of the 27 books known as the Gospels and letters ever reside between the covers of one particular book.
The Gospels and letters were not written as a book per se, it was written by eight or nine different men, in a variety of locations and circumstances over a period of about 60 years. The Gospels and letters were originally letters which were written to certain congregations or individuals.
These letters were written on papyrus in a particular kind of recalled called Koine Greek. Koine Greek was the language of the common man at that time. It is important to remember that the Gospels and letters were originally written in Koine Greek, because later on we are going to encounter manuscripts written in classical Greek.
As the Gospels and letters were circulated from congregation to congregation, each congregation would make a copy of the letter before passing it on.
This collection of letters would eventually be
put together in a book form, after the Gutenberg press was created. 1440
The corrupt line of Ascension starts
with a man named Origen.
Origen lived in the years 185 - 251 A.D., he was a Ebionite, one who accepts the teachings of Messiah, but denies the doctrine of salvation. He believed infant baptism, like the Catholics, universal salvation that is, that all men would be saved, rather than are saved. He believes sin was given through communion, he did not believe Messiah was our high priest. He does not believe in the physical resurrection, nor did he believe the second coming of Messiah. He amended the Gospels and letters whenever and wherever he felt like it. This is where everything started, the corruption of the Gospels and letters.
After this we have the Emperor Constantine of Rome. 325 A.D.
Then Eusebius was a great admirer of Origen, he was an Arian that denied the deity of Messiah and did not believe in a literal interpretation of Scripture. Unfortunately, 50 copies of the Bible he made up for Constantine were based on the corrupt works of Origin.
Catholics creating 350 A.D.
The codices Vaticanus and Sinaticus were written around 350 A.D. they were written on vellum in classical Greek
The next step in the corrupt line was Jerome’s Latin Vulgate written about 400 A.D. it was based primarily on the work of Origen and Eusebius. For the next thousand years, this was the standard Bible the Catholic Church.
The codex Vaticanus is still owned by the Catholic Church
The codex Sinaticus was rediscovered 1859 in a trash basket at the monastery of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai. This codex was corrected by over 10 different scribes in different periods of time and is very significant to understand.
Next we have the Rheims-Douay Bible completed in 1610. It is the current Bible Catholic Church and of course the teachings of Origen, Eusebius, and Jerome.
Some people will have you believe that there exists somewhere a single authorized Greek text from which all translations and versions of made. This is not true.
What we did have was over 5500 Greek manuscripts. Today, there might exist 5000 pieces of evidence, fragments.
------------------------
Now we move to WESTCOTT AND HORT:
Just remember and take note: in every Bible today, the Gospels and letters are the work of Wescott and Hort.
Until the late 1800s, the Textus Receptus, or the “received text,” was the foremost Greek text from which the Gospels and letters was derived. (The King James Version is based on the Textus Receptus.)
In 1881 two weasel scholars, Brooke Foss Westcott
and Fenton J. A. Hort,
printed their New Testament in Greek, later known as the Critical Text.
Dismissing the Textus Receptus as an inferior text
rife with errors, Westcott and Hort
compiled a New Greek text, with special focus on two fourth-century
manuscripts, the Codex Vaticanus
and the Codex Sinaiticus.
As a result of Westcott and Hort’s
work, their Critical Text became the standard Greek text used for modern
interpretation and translation for nearly two generations. The Critical Text
was the one chiefly used for the English Revised Version and the later American
Standard Version.
Today, the updated and revised Critical Text is the Greek manuscript basis for the New International Version, the New American Standard Bible, the English Standard Version, and virtually every other modern English translation of the Bible.
Brooke Foss Westcott (1825-1901) and Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828-1892) produced a Greek New Testament
in 1881 based on the findings of Constantine Tischendorf, one who discovered and deciphered
rare ancient manuscripts. One was the Sinaticus
codex.
In 1870, the southern convocation of the Church of England expressed desirability of revising the Authorized Version. Wescott and Hort were the so-called Greek scholars at that time led the charge.
This Greek NT was the basis for the Revised Version of that same year.
They also developed a theory of textual criticism which underlay their Greek NT and several other Greek NT since (such as the Nestle's text and the United Bible Society's text).
Greek New Testaments such as these produced the modern English translations of the Bible we have today.
So it is important for us to know these two men
who have so greatly influenced modern textual criticism.
The Westcott and Hort
theory states that the Bible is to be treated as any other book written.
Westcott and Hort
believed the Greek text which underlies the KJV was perverse and corrupt. Hort called the Textus Receptus vile and villainous (Life and Letters of
Fenton John Anthony Hort,
Vol. I, p.211).
If Westcott and Hort are
the fathers of modern textual criticism and the restorers of the true text,
should we not know something of their beliefs to see if they are consistent
with Scripture?
Here's what Westcott and Hort said:
The Scriptures:
"I reject the word infallibility of Holy
Scriptures overwhelmingly." (Westcott, The Life and Letters of Brook Foss Westcott, Vol.
I, p.207).
"Our Bible as well as our Faith is a mere compromise." (Westcott, On the Canon of the New Testament, p.
vii).
"Evangelicals seem to me perverted.
. .There are, I fear, still more serious differences between us on the subject
of authority, especially the authority of the Bible." (Hort, The
Life and Letters of Fenton John Anthony Hort,
Vol. I, p.400)
"Dr. Wilbur Pickering writes that, Hort
did not hold to a high view of inspiration." (The Identity of the New
Testament Text, p.212)
Perhaps this is why both the RV (which Westcott and
Hort helped to translate)
and the American edition of it, the ASV, translated 2nd Timothy 3:16 as,
"Every scripture inspired of God" instead of "All scripture is
given by inspiration of God" (KJV).
The Deity of Christ:
"He never speaks of Himself directly as God,
but the aim of His revelation was to lead men to see God in Him." (Westcott, The Gospel According to St. John, p.
297).
"(John) does not expressly affirm the
identification of the Word with Jesus Christ." (Westcott, Ibid., p. 16).
"(Rev. 3:15) might no doubt bear the Arian meaning, the first thing
created." (Hort,
Revelation, p.36).
Perhaps this is why their Greek text makes Jesus
a created god (John 1:18) and their American translation had a footnote
concerning John 9:38, "And he said, Lord I believe and he worshipped
him," which said, "The Greek word denotes an act of reverence,
whether paid to a creature, as here, or to the Creator" (thus calling
Christ a creature).
Salvation:
"The thought (of John 10:29) is here traced
back to its most absolute form as resting on the essential power of God in His
relation of Universal Fatherhood." (Westcott,
St. John, p. 159).
"I confess I have no repugnance to the primitive doctrine of a ransom paid
to Satan. I can see no other possible form in which the doctrine of a ransom is
at all tenable; anything is better than the doctrine of a ransom to the
father." (Hort, The First
Epistle of St. Peter 1:1-2:17, p. 77).
Perhaps this is why their Greek text adds to
salvation in 1st Peter 2:2. And why their English version teaches universal
salvation in Titus 2:11, "For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing
salvation to all men" (ASV).
Hell:
"(Hell is) not the place of punishment of
the guilty, (it is) the common abode of departed spirits." (Westcott, Historic Faith, pp.77-78).
"We have no sure knowledge of future
punishment, and the word eternal has a far higher meaning." (Hort, Life and Letters, Vol.
I, p.149).
Perhaps this is why their Greek text does not
have Mark 9:44, and their English translation
replaces "everlasting fire" [Matthew 18:8] with "eternal
fire" and change the meaning of eternal as cited by Hort in the above quote.
Creation:
"No one now, I suppose, holds that the first
three chapters of Genesis, for example, give a literal history. I could never
understand how anyone reading them with open eyes could think they did." (Westcott, cited from Which Bible?, p. 191).
"But the book which has most engaged me is Darwin.
Whatever may be thought of it, it is a book that one is proud to be
contemporary with..... My feeling is strong that the theory is
unanswerable." (Hort,
cited from Which Bible?, p. 189)
Romanism:
"I wish I could see to what forgotten truth
Mariolatry (the worship of the Virgin Mary) bears witness." (Westcott,
Ibid. )
"The pure Romanish view seems to be nearer, and more likely
to lead to the truth than the Evangelical." (Hort, Life and Letters, Vol. I, p. 77)
It is one thing to have doctrinal differences on
baby-sprinkling and perhaps a few other faults interpretations. It is another
to be a Darwin-believing theologian who rejects the authority of scriptures,
Biblical salvation, the reality of hell, and makes Christ a created being to be
worshipped with Mary his mother. Yet, these were the views of both Westcott and
Hort. No less significant is the fact that both men were members of
spiritualist societies (the Hermes Club and the Ghostly Guild).
Westcott and Hort talked to Spirits of the dead.
Charles Robert Darwin 1809-1882
Brooke Foss Westcott 1825-1901
Fenton John Anthony Hort 1828-1892
This is where the corruption in evolution started in our schools
Thomas Henry Huxley 1825 -1895
Charles Lyell 1797
– 1895
This is only a sampling of the
information I have on these men.
In conclusion:
Remember and take note: most likely, in every bible today, the Gospels and Letters are the work of Wescott and Hort.
Be diligent, do your homework on bible versions,
your soul is at stake
Shabbat Shalom
