About the Book
An anthology of essays by pastors confirming the integrity of the traditional text of the Bible.
Book Synopsis
An exceptional volume confirming the integrity of the traditional text of the Bible.Though used by the church for centuries, the traditional text of the Bible and translations based upon it are presently being jettisoned in favor of an unstable and constantly evolving modern critical text resulting in an undermining of the authority of God's Word. In light of this, Why I Preach from the Received Text seeks to stimulate, revive, confirm, and defend intelligent and effective usage of the traditional text of the Word of God. With a resounding chorus of unique voices from a variety of Reformed denominations, its compelling essays demonstrate that we have every reason to trust the traditional text, and that using it is neither unreasonable nor obscurantist. Both persuasive and encouraging, it is an exceptional volume for those interested in the integrity of the text of Holy Scripture, and an inspiring challenge for believers to consider the text of the Bible they choose to embrace.
Review Quotes
"I recommend this book as I believe it takes seriously the vital warnings which God gives us all at the close of the Book of Revelation...that we must not add to the Bible nor subtract from it." -Maurice Roberts, Retired Editor, The Banner of Truth Magazine
"Has God providentially preserved His Holy Word? The answer in this book is a resounding 'Yes!' This book is the clarion call for the church to return to the text that has sustained Christianity and preserved truth for centuries - the Traditional, or Ecclesiastical text. A must-read for every pastor committed to truth." -Dr. James E. Bearss, Professor, Seminario Reformado Latinoamericano, President, On Target Ministry
"More valuable than a seminary's clinical evaluation of Scriptural texts, this anthology contains multiple compelling cases for the superiority of the Received Text set in a doxological context. Written to both edify and inform, I heartily recommend it." -Dr. Peter Van Kleeck, Sr., Pastor, Providence Baptist Church (Manassas, Virginia), Former Director, Institute for Biblical and Textual Studies (Grand Rapids, Michigan)
