    Mr. Benner teaches the New Testament was originally written in Hebrew, not Greek. Essentially denying that the New Testament ever actually had any original Greek text autographs.

    The following 10 minute video is the part 1 of 6.

    At issue is inerrancy.
    And inerrancy has to do with the original God breathed autographs. And our Scriptures are handed down hand copied copies. Our New Testament books are Greek texts. If the original New Testament were written in.Hebrew - our Greek New Testament is not Hebrew!

    I have read of people suggesting that Matthew and James were written in Hebrew or Aramaic, but never that the whole NT was.
    However, until Mr Benner finds a Hebrew manuscript of any book of the NT to back up his claims, he is just whistling in the dark.
    The Septuagint Greek translation of the OT was made around 200 BC. Why? Because so many Jews didn't understand Hebrew.

    We do NOT use the word "HERESY" on the BB. Easy to use term to slur and slander. Usually ask permission to change the word (and scold miscreant for using it).

    I hate to be a stickler for rules, so changing the title to an accurate word without violating a 24-year rule I've enforced since the founding of the BB. (And yes, I'm old)

    Honestly, I must have failed to have read that rule.

    I like Jeff Benner and generally his explanation of ancient Hebrew. There are somethings I simply cannot agree with him on. I think he is too liberal with the Biblical text from an original text belief, as I understand it. Isaiah 7:14 to Matthew 1:23 case issue.

    I did have in mind also 1 Corinthians 11:19, For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

    And you are 4 months my senior being 76. :)

    The only thing my being 'a few months older' than you is that I'm 'a few months closer' to heaven.

    1. If you are going to start a thread in this forum, you must be clearly identified as a Baptist since this is a Baptist-Only area. As such, only BAPTISTS are allowed to post on any thread in this Forum. Non-Baptists may feel free to start a thread on the same subject in the "Other Religions" forum.

    2. Please do not start a thread with an attack or a flame as your premise. This is in violation of BB rules. And do not bring dirty laundry from another forum into this forum. This one has enough of its own.

    3. Remember that we're presenting ideas and not destroying people. Teach patiently as Second Timothy 2 says, or don't post at all. Do not attack the other poster; if you want to question the opinion, that's fine. But do so in a God honoring way. Don't attack the person; the goal is to build up and win for the truth's sake.

    4. It is NEVER ACCEPTABLE to question someone's salvation relative to "interpretation/preferences" of doctrine. If false doctrine is taught, it will be stopped, but assumption is always that the BB member is simply not educated or confused, perhaps using poor word-choices, and not "doomed to eternal hell". Phrases like "If you were as spiritual as I am, you'd believe xyz" is another such put-down not tolerated.

    5. Certain terms are OFF-LIMITS in this forum in the name of civility and discussion:
    To label someone (individually) or a post (corporately) as "perverted," "satanic," "demonic," "cultic," "heretical," "sacrilegious," etc, is counter-productive to discussion and learning.

    6. If a thread is going "off topic" after 5 pages, it will be shut down by the moderators. Feel free to start a NEW thread on a cognate area that was left unresolved. If you start a thread, at any time you may request that the thread be closed, but the Forum Moderators reserve the right to leave the thread open or close the thread at their discretion.
