NEW RADIO SHOWS from Noise of Thunder Radio

Our ongoing Noise of Thunder Radio program features three new shows.

9/13/2016 Show: GNOSTICS & THE NEW TESTAMENT
Chris continues his discussion about the controversial influence of Gnostics in the early centuries of Church history.  Some scholars in the nineteenth century rejected the theory of Westcott and Hort because they believed these men had embraced the depraved readings of heretics which had been warned about by early church fathers, and were rejected by the majority of the Christian world.  Do the leading manuscripts used by modern textual critics (the Vaticanus and Sinaiticus) show the activity of ancient Gnostic corruptions?

9/14/2016 Show : THE HAND OF HERESY
Chris discusses the Revision Committee of 1881 from the perspective of Dean John W. Burgon and one of his associates, a renowned minister named H.P. Liddon.  The Committee, led by Westcott and Hort chose to include in its company a Unitarian named Dr. Vance Smith.  His inclusion was considered a scandal that caused an uproar among believers in England.  Liddon wrote to Burgon that because of the influence of an unbeliever, they should "expect to trace the hand of heresy" in the passages of the 1881 revision of the English Bible.

9/16/2016: THE SYRIAN RECENSION THEORY
Chris discusses the very heart of the critical text theory -- the alleged recension (or revision) of the New Testament that is said to have occurred between 250 and 350 A.D. in ancient Syria, according to Westcott and Hort's hypothesis.  The result was a series of longer readings of the text of Scripture that then became (eventually) the Received Text.  The theory itself was apparently engineered for the purpose of explaining why the Codex Vaticanus contained shorter readings than the Textus Receptus.  Yet it was opposed by leading scholars of the nineteenth century, such as Charles Henry Waller and Canon Cook -- whose comments are explored.

NEW RELEASE: At long last, our little ministry has finished part three in our epic untold history of the Bible series.  The film has come in at 2 hours and 51 minutes in length – just under the three-hour mark.  We hope that the wait will have been worthwhile, and pray this film will be a great blessing to those who view it.  

Also, we are very thankful to all of our supporters out there who have been praying for us, and sending words of encouragement through letters and emails.  We thank the Lord for each of you, and that He has used you to strengthen our hands along the way.

FILM SYNOPSIS

In 1881, two scholars named Westcott and Hort published a revision of the New Testament that would send shockwaves through the academic world.  Their new textual theory declared that the King James Version (which had been trusted for centuries) was full of errors.  Sacred readings, long cherished by the faithful, were now declared to be forgeries. The world was informed that the book, which had been called the inerrant Word of God, was in need of correction.

The new theory claimed that recently recovered manuscripts revealed a truer version of Scripture.  Yet others warned that these texts were, in fact, the writings of Gnostic heretics that had been abandoned centuries earlier.   Was the new revision filled with ancient corruptions?

Follow the story of the Bible’s controversial history into the twentieth century, as the work of Westcott and Hort would transform biblical scholarship, inspire the work of various Bible Societies, and pave the way for the cause of ecumenical unity between Evangelical Protestants and Rome.

KEY INFORMATION COVERED IN THIS NEW FILM

1) The role of Westcott and Hort in secretly changing the text of the Bible through the Revision of 1881. 

2) An examination of Westcott and Hort’s letters and what they believed.

3) The warnings of 19th century critic, F.H.A. Scrivener who opposed the Revision and warned that the work was based on fiction rather than historic fact.

4) The warnings of Dean John W. Burgon who believed that the new Greek manuscripts used for the Revision were the corrupted codices of ancient Gnostic heretics. 

5) Examples from the work of Westcott and Hort (which are found in most modern bibles) of what Burgon believed were Gnostic readings from the ancient world.

6) Historic information on ancient Gnostic sects as recorded by early church fathers.

7) Examination of the claim that earlier manuscripts are closer to the originals, in light of the corruptions of heretical groups in the first and second centuries.

8) Rationalism and its role in modern textual criticism.

9) The influence of the critical text in the 20th century, with Eberhard Nestle, Kurt Aland, Bruce Metzger and the Jesuit Carlo Maria Martini.

11) Evidence that the Egyptian papyri come from Gnostic origins. 

12) The work of Eugene Nida and the development of dynamic equivalency.

13) The influence of William Cameron Townsend the founder of Wycliffe Bible Translators and the Summer Institute of Linguistics.

14) The connection between the new Bible movement and Rome.

15) The use of the UBS/Nestle-Aland Greek text as a one world Bible, intended to be a “bridge” for reunification with Rome.
