The list that I gave you before gives you a pretty good indication of
some of the deletions found in Bible based on bad manuscripts.
There are a lot more from I Corinthians thru Revelations.
From Bible Versions...To Test the True Character of Your Bible by
Eldred Thomas.
.....
When the Church of the Lord was established, the arch enemy, Satan, had
a backlog of pre-arrangements with which to subtly infiltrate the
organized Church so as to pollute its message and dilute its power. The
Church was soon to accept most of the heathen Bablylonish beliefs and
practices. This was only the beginning of corruptions. So corrupt did
the Church become that persons who believed differently were condemned
as heretics and killed by burning at the stake. It is estimated that
millions perished in this manner. One only has to review the history of
the Inquisition to be reminded of these horrible "holocausts."
Chapter VII
.... God had promised to protect and perserve His word, and He did just
that. His promise could never be broken (Isaiah 40:8).
Johann Semler (1725-94) was the first textual critic to suggest that New
testment Manuscripts had been edited. J. J. Griesbach (1745-1812) was a
pupil of Semler. In 1771 he wrote that the New Testament abounds in
interpolations and additions, purposefully introduced. Greisbach
believed that whenever the New Testament manuscripts bvaried from each
other that the accepted and orthodox readings were to be ruled out as
spurious (unacceptable). he stated that the most suspicious readings of
all were those that encouraged piety. what a diabolical innovation into
the sacred sanctity of the Holy Scriptures. The Sacred Sanctity of the
Scriptures is not recognized by any textual critic who believes that the
scriptures should be handled just like any other secular book and that
the text of the Bible is not the verbally inspired word of God, plenary.
Lachmann, Tregelles, Tischendorf, and Westcott and Hort all held the
same naturalisitic views of Textual Criticism. These views can only be
held by those who do not believe in the Devine Providential watchcare of
the Holy Word. although these men were scholars of the first rank, they
cannot be trusted to handle the Sacred Scriptures because of their
attitude towards the scriptures and to the Divine Son of God. They
literally threw out ninety-nine percent of the existing manuscripts and
resorted to not more than four of the most corrupt.
The naturalistic scholarship and believing scholarship
are as far apart as light and dark and could never be reconciled. God's
Words is a supernatural book, God-breathed and verbally inspired. The
"born again Christian" could never accept any other ocnviction. This
cannot be taught to an unbelieving, unregenerate, naturalistic professor
because he neighter knows God, through the Lord Jesus Christ and the
Holy Spirit, and does not believe the Bible to be any different from any
other book. This explains the attitude and theories of Westcott and
hort, two unbelieving scholars who taught in Cambridge and who
fabricated a new Greek Text for the Revision Committee of 1881.
During this time, Westcott said to Hort: "If the Company accepts the
dictation of the Convocation, my work must end." A Resolution of the
Upper House of the Convocation stated: "No person who denied the diety
of Christ whould work on the revision."
