Title: Establishment of Biblical Canon and Universalism.
Post by: Nil Recurring on June 23, 2011, 05:51:32 AM
I've been reading up on ow Biblical canon was established, and the various books that have come under fire by more liberal scholars who try to suggest various books were not written by who they were purported to have bee written by. I have faith that God would ensure that His word was collected properly and that the Bible we have today is the inspired Word.

But as I come to this conclusion, it jumps me to the establishment of ET as the predominantly taught doctrine of future punishment. God made sure the Bible was put together correctly, but when it cam to translation he let grievous errors and doctrines slip in?

I feel like the answer to my quandary is right on the top of my tongue, but I can't quite seem to find the words to explain why this isn't really a problem.

Can anyone help me out?

I think its part of the bondage of corruption, and the veil that is cast over all faces. 

Any chance you're reading ELM's restoring the original Bible order?  Excellent series on cannonization.

The errors are not in the translation; the errors are in the understanding.
Have we not many who understand having only the KJV?
We do not all sleep.

Satan is a great teacher. He tells 98% truth. So you can learn a lot from him. Woudl you follow such a teacher?
Now replace satan with a name of a corrupted translation.

 :cloud9: Beloved has it.  :thumbsup: It's not a problem because He intends for us to know the Word that is Spirit, because He is the interpreter of the Word that is recorded letter.
