The Controversy Of The Preservation Of God's Word In The Scripture
Sorenson explains the validity of the Bible that becomes a controversy over the scholars through the ages. The issue is asking about the preservation of God’s Word in the Scripture. There are two textual translation generations in the Bible, such as Traditional Text as King James Version and Critical Text as NIV, ESV and etc. However, both of Bible translations have a different history. Bible-Believing churches adopted traditional Text while Gnosticism applied Critical Text instead. The issues continue as more people ask the truth of God’s Word over the Bible. However, God said in Proverbs 30:5 Matthew 4:4 that God has preserved His Word in Scripture because “Every word of God is pure” and we have to live God’s word.
The controversy arises
when some scholars reveal that the Bible is imperfect because it has mistranslation meaning. However, God answers this statement in Psalms 19:7 that “The law of the LORD is perfect” to this day because God has preserved His words through Holy Spirit. The Lord Himself is even called the Word of God that inspire throughout the Scripture as Apostle Paul writes in II Timothy 3:16. God is the author of Scripture and He has some ways for directing holy men to write His Words. Thus, the inspiration of Him is meaningful throughout the ages.
Theories or positions likely arise concerning the preservation of the Bible, such as Denial, De Facto, Deficient and Defective. However, it is clear that God works as a whole in the Bible, not just let it the halfway. God has preserved His words and it becomes permanent as it is written in Ecclesiastes 3:14. The preservation of God’s Word in Scripture is a process that endures to this day through holy men of old. Regeneration is substantial because human hands through the ages might have an unintentional purpose and result to impurities of the Scripture. Therefore, God uses the process of preservation of Scripture to purify His words over the ages. God is the author and publisher who regenerate His Word and use believing people to publish His Word, whether in the original language or the others. There are differences of thought between Traditional Text and modern Critical Text. However, the truth is the Traditional Text can be evidenced to the early stages after autographs of the Bible. The King James Version demonstrates the purified of the God’s preservation. Therefore, King James Version is the fruit of God’s preservation in the English language throughout the centuries.
