James White's ever-descending flame-out
A necessary turning point has arrived in the tactical approach of representative Critical Text scholar James White in his endeavor to defend the indefensible. Having been exposed by conservative, unashamed Bible-believing Christians in his own camp (White is a self-identified Reformed Christian, Baptist in his case) he is now busily staking out new ground between his camp of shallow Critical Text academics (which he is pretending to turn against now) and what he disdains as unashamed Bible-believing Christians: the 'Truly Reformed' or true believers, Christians who see Scripture as something that is above us and that God has preserved *supernaturally* in the Traditional Masoretic/Received Text, always available, which has the authority of God in it, the text that the Papists despise and that the liberal academic Protestant 'christians' despise, and that our brothers and sisters in all eras of the history of redemption have defended and handed down against vicious persecution from the world and the devil.
In other words: White can no longer run interference for and defend his own camp, so he is now staking out a position between the secular scholars and the true believers (White and the world in general consider the phrase 'true believer' to be something that is embarrassing and something you call a person when you want to mock them, but of course to God's remnant being true believers is just what we are). Good luck, Mr. White. You couldn't have just come over to the side of God's remnant though? Apparently that is too much to ask a person still under the tyranny of his vanity, worldly pride, and too-pleasurable rebellious self-will who demands to dictate to God what His Word is.
By the way: why do Papists and atheist academics hate the God-preserved Masoretic/Received text? Because it carries the authority of God in it. When people fear and revere God they cease to fear and revere man. The world and the system of the Beast need people to fear and revere man and the word of man. They know when they are able to replace the God-preserved text with the ever-changing text of the scholars, full of holes and corruptions, then there is nothing for people to fear and revere *other than* the word and authority of man.
