book. Do we agree with this presentation by
the author? We have no difficulty in standing on his side. For
all the modem versions are based on the corrupt text of Westcott and Hort,
in one way or another.
Hitherto, we have been hoodwinked by a conspiracy of
silence on the evil character of these two angels of light in textual
criticism until the recent exposure of their true colours. The records of
the sons of Westcott and Hort, above all others, testify to their shame.
Westcott was founder of the Hermes Club at Cambridge,
a Club that was reputed to be a homosexual club. Three years later,
together with Hort and others, he branched into the Ghost Club, which
scoffers called the Bogey Club. Bogey means devil. They delved into
necromancy, which is communicating with the dead. This is an abomination
forbidden by the Lord (Deuteronomy 18:11, 12). Both Westcott and Hort were
secret worshippers of Mary. They were friends of Darwin, Freud (called a
Fraud in The Straits Times) and of Carl Jung, all enemies of our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ. They denied the infallability and inerrancy of
Scripture, the Virgin Birth of Christ, His blood atonement and
resurrection. The Creation and Temptation that led to the Fall they
derisively declared to be myths.
Now, the Bible asks, “Who shall ascend into the
hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean
hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor
sworn deceitfully" (Psalm 24:3-4). With impure hearts of rebellion against
God and unclean, unconverted hands, how dare they touch the sacred Text of
Holy Scripture! The thousands of alterations and deletions they had made
on the basis of Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus versus the Majority
Text resulted in the scissoring of the equivalent of 1 and 2 Peter. They
cut out the passage of Jesus pardoning the woman taken in adultery (John
7:53-8:11), the last twelve verses of Mark and the Johannine Comma (1 John
5:7,8), maligning them to be later interpolations. In so doing, they had
cut themselves from the Lord who bought them (2 Peter 2:1). Those who
follow Westcott and Hort in taking away Scripture beware, “God shall take
away his part out of the book of life...” (Revelation 22:19). What more
can we say of the one hundred “perversions” that are based on Westcott and
Hort? They are already corrupted at source.
As to judging between KJB and the one hundred
“perversions,” the unanimous testimony of believers throughout Church
history, by the anointing of the Holy Spirit, suffices. Says the Apostle
John, “But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye
need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of
all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you,
ye shall abide in him” (1 John 2:20, 27).
Let us take, for example, John 3:16, the most repeated
verse in the Bible. The KJB renders monogenes as only begotten, but the
NIV as one and only, clipping out the begotten. The doctrine of eternal
generation of the Son, held time immemorial by the universal Church, is
forever struck out by the NIV. By the anointing of the Holy Spirit you can
judge between the KJB and NIV. You have the answer.
Indeed, “we can do nothing against the truth, but for
the truth” (2 Corinthians 13:8). Amen.
