“ Useful series ” Very thankful for men as Mr Ridle who painstickingly bring apart the fallacies of those that "speak great swelling words" of vanity and deceit to the subverting of their hearers, whose months may God stop.
“ A literal millennium refutated as error ” Very interesting to read about Dionysius of Antioch's refutation of a literal millenium as an error in the early church. This interpretation had been taught by Nepos, an Egyptian bishop, causing great division of the churches near Alexandria.
As it often happens with other modern trends of interpretation, some errors are not new.
“ Informative section ” However one ponders why the early church had to 'celebrate' a passover in the first place? It is obvious that as early as the first and second century Christians were seduced into the observance of not commanded special events, which perpetuated for many centuries after. This demostrate how early error gripped the church from its very beginnings.
“ Section of special interest ” These are informative chapters in Eusebius records about the leaders of the early churches in Antioch, Jerusalem, Bostra, and Rome, and about the ongoing discussions about the Pascha, against the claims of the Papacy and Easter.
“ Great Sermon! ” Very nicely done, appreciated.
With special emphasis on the ending after 1:15 where (after having earlier summarized Elijah's conclusion confusions) you pinpoint the new pseudo-evangelical methodology:
"romance in uncertainty"
"the piety of uncertainty"
“ Great Sermon! ” Yes, generally interesting, the right tempo, and I am in agreement with you that the text of the 'Byzantine' era is the genuine text as given out at the first: I am most unimpressed by the so-called 'eclectic' or 'critical' text, and the arguments put in favour of it.
“ Key relevance of the traditional text pointed out ” This podcast brings a valuable refocus on the deciding importance of the traditional text (TR) underlying the KJV, against the folly of the forever-changing critical text. Perhaps the term 'modern-versions onlynism' is truly overdue.
“ Great Sermon! ” Thank you! Very refreshing and uplifting! One thing though. I do reserve the right to use the term "modern versions onlyism" if anything, at least, to identify an undercurrent that exists among many reform brethren and ministers in particular. I was however very encouraged by this video. may the Lord bring great increase in the numbers of those hungering to return to the time tested traditional text that our reform forefathers used.
