Greetings from the Majority Text Society (MTS). We are pleased to announce
that MTS has its own website and is currently online. The site is www.majoritytext.org
and was designed by MTS member Joe Bell. He has done a superb job on
it. Please visit the site and judge for yourself. It has the potential
for future expansion and development. This is an extremely cost effective
way of communicating issues important to MTS. We give him our thanks
for this important service he has provided. I would also like to inform
MTS members that former MTS President, Dr. Wilbur Pickering has his
own website at www.esgm.org
and has papers posted that have been previously distributed by MTS as
well as chapters from his book The Identity of the New Testament
Text. I'd also highly recommend his site.
I am pleased to distribute our current newsletter. The
first article on the variant in 2 Cor 5:10 is written by MTS member
Dr. Bob Wilkin, who is President of the Grace Evangelical Theological
Society. We are glad to have his submission. The second article, which
I wrote, was spurred on by a recent critical text Bible translation
that relegated Jesus statement of forgiveness on the cross to a footnote,
removing it from the text of the translation. I hope you enjoy reading
these articles. At this point we are ready to receive short articles
from an MTS perspective or articles that MTS members would be interested
in. They should be one or two pages, single spaced, and submitted in
Microsoft Word if possible. They should be sent to me at jfdavisfamily@msn.com.
Thanks for your interest in Majority
Text issues.
Sincerely in Christ,
Dr. James F. Davis
President, MTS
