The UBS Red Cover Greek New Testament (Nestle-Aland)
Did you know that this New Testament comes from the work of Westcott & Hort
and others who rejected the message of the Bible
(even though they wanted credit for their "translation" work) ?
The Text of the Nestle-Aland actually is the "text" Nestle, a German Textual Critic.
He Chose primarily to use 2 sources for his Greek New Testament Collation.
Those 2 Sources were:
1. The fraudulent text of Westcott & Hort (Codex Vaticanus)
and
2. The fraudulent text of Tischendorf (Codex Sinaiticus)
But don't take our word for it.
Here -below - is the preface to the Greek Text of Nestle in 1936, where
Nestle Jr. explains the choice of his father, Eberhard Nestle, and how it was his plan
and his conscious intention to replace the Greek New Testament used by Protestants
with Nestle's text (based on Westcott & Hort/Tischendorf).
Notice the clever slam against the Textus Receptus, attributing it to Erasmus, rather than to
the 99% of the Ancient Greek Manuscripts that Agree with the Textus Receptus.
Notice also how he credits Eberhard Nestle with the compliment of conducting was their premise that anything resembling true Christian faith or faith in Salvation through Christ alone was something which was not "Scientific" .
That was a good one. It was clear that the person chosing between the Greek Manuscripts of Tischendorf or Westcott & Hort- for the initial Greek NT of Nestle-Aland was Nestle -, yet this is downplayed. He remains the one responsible for his collation of this Greek manuscript.
You might have caught the slant (bias), where the work of Westcott & Hort is actually also referred to - as "Scientific".
Like Westcott & Hort & Tischendorf, and their invented texts, Nestle continued the trend that they had started, thereby adding to the confusion for us today, and taking the Biblical text very far from the Rest of the Ancient Bible manuscripts in Greek, the overwhelming majority of which disagree with Westcott & Hort, Tischendorf and Nestle.
People today - for their sense of comfort - WANT to believe that the Greek Text of Nestle-Aland was based on a single manuscript, and that this required "no collation, no choice between various manuscripts". But that is not the case. Nestle chose from different manuscripts. However - what all of these manuscripts had IN COMMON - is that they had been rejected by the Early Church as Fraudulent. And that is why those manuscripts disagree with 99% of the Early Manuscripts of the Greek New Testament.
The Greek Text of Westcott/Hort, Tischendorf and Nestle were from Bible manuscripts that were historically known to be false, and had been rejected by the Early Christian Church. That is why it matters that these fraudulent texts - started to be used once again - as of 1904/1910, were recognized by Christians of the past as being Counterfeit and False Greek Texts.
Before the Greek Texts of Nestle and Westcott & Hort, the Christian Church was theologically sound, and spiritually strong. Since the counterfeit Greek Texts were substituted and used instead of the Textus Receptus, the Bibles dependent upon the false texts...have produced "Christians" that are extremely weak spiritually, as well as easily confused.
BY THE WAY
Did you notice when this version of Nestle's Text was produced ?
This was produced in 1936 - in Germany.
What was happening in Germany in 1936 ?
A tragedy of Textual Criticism: that under the guise of "clarification" and edification, that these men elevated their own intellect above the Bible, rejected the claims of Jesus Christ, and attacked Historic Christianity.

____________________________________
The Real Question is what are you going to do with the information that was presented in this article.
Is the Information True ?
Is the Information Accurate ?
Is the Information documented ?
Do I - before God - have a responsibility if I am a Christian to accept and act on the information in this article ?
Am I comfortable in the knowledge, that some leaders under the guise of clarifying the text of the Bible, are actually changing that text, and changing MY understanding of what God wants to share with me through His Holy Word, the Old Testament and the New Testament ?
Do I understand that these "small" changes number from the hundreds to the THOUSANDS depending on which Modern Versions I use, and that these changes serve to cut away the clarity and the specific understanding found in the Greek New Testament, that these new modern versions are preventing me from understanding ?
Do I understand that most of these new Modern Versions were not developed because there was a genuine need, but because the teams of Bible Translators were Hired by PUBLISHING companies who are eager to make a profit on the Word of God, which remains the Number ONE bestseller every week of every year, and that these Publishers decided to cash in ?
Do I understand that the problem was that if these Bible Adjusters and Correctors did NOT make the changes that they chose to, that they would not be able to claim copyright protection, and therefore they would not be able to make a financial Profit from their new versions ?
Do I understand that there are Spiritual Forces that want to prevent me from having GREATER spiritual understanding about God, but that God himself is always in MORE of a hurry than I am, for Me to get to know HIM ?
Do I realize what my personal state of preparation will be, within me, when Islam becomes the Dominant Religion in the United States, as it is already in Europe, and how I will personally be required to defend my Faith, by argument and persuasion, using knowledge of the Bible and of History and of Christianity, and that God will rightly hold me accountable because I am claiming to be His Child and a personal follower of Jesus Christ ?
In view of these facts, should I try to set aside more time for the study of the Word of God, and more time for the study of History and the true history of the Christian Church, and to learn about how other Christians in the past, actually learned to have and to gain GREAT spiritual strength ?
If no one reaches out to help prepare me for the coming challenges, whose job is it STILL for me to be prepared to answer these challenges and questions ?
