I’ve posted something on this over on my Threads blog, titled Does Gordon Fee Discard Part of the Bible?. That post is a response to part of a interview with Wayne Grudem by Adrian Warnock.
I think it will be of interest to readers of this blog for the textual criticism aspects, though less so for the controversial theological aspects.
I chose to do my lectionary reading today from the KJV, and specifically from an edition of the C. I. Scofield study Bible. This is an interesting exercise for me, since I grew up on the KJV. In fact, it’s no harder for me to do my reading from the KJV than from a very…

I’m going to try to present this in a way that will be useful to lay students of the Bible, so note that I will be ignoring the more obscure forms and some technicalities of the method. The general…
Everybody is writing about this so I might as well get on the bandwagon. I’ll credit the hat tip to Better Bibles Blog. I’m pretty sure that’s where I read about it first. I’ll let you go there for the details. To be honest, though I’m obviously pretty intensively interested in Bible translation, having written…

OR GETTING ALL UPSET OR EMOTIONAL!!
OR ASKING SO MANY QUESTIONS IN THE CHURCH
SERVICE THAT IT TURNS A TWO HOUR CHURCH SERVICE
INTO A (4) OR (5) HOUR CHURCH SERVICE!!
FROM: BIG MOUTH FOR GOD———————————
Big Mouth: And then again you might be totally wrong, and God may not appreciate it that you claim to speak for him while putting down women.
