An Evaluation of the Work of Charles Surrett on Preservation

I will not and cannot discuss textual criticism with my brothers and sisters in Christ who insist on the exclusive use of the King James Version. I will discuss only vernacular translation. But there are two questions that my KJV-Only friends have consistently asked...

    I got my email notification as well. I have to admit that I’ve lost most of my excitement for it. I feel content after reading the ESV Reader’s Bible (6-volume set) these last few months.

      I’m afraid I have to admit that I feel the same. My six-volume ESV set is sitting on my desk right now. But I kept my order in for Bibliotheca out of loyalty to the person that got this current wave of interest started.

    I received mine today, even though the right address was on the label, but FedEx delivered it to another address in my sub. The neighbor was nice enough to redeliver it for me.

    I ordered the full Bible set, but was a bit disconcerted to find them labeled Vol 1, Vol 2, Vol 3, and Vol 5. Because I didn’t get the Apocrypha, which is not part of the canon of Scripture, but apparently Bibliotheca thinks it is, it would have been labeled Vol 4, so it seems I have an incomplete set. I didn’t like that.

    Ouch, Paul… Man, that is disappointing. An excuse to buy another book, however. =) But then your slipcase won’t fit if you got one…
