Must Read,

This review is from: Touch Not the Unclean Thing : The Text Issue and Separation (Paperback)
This is a "must read" for anyone who is seriously interested in learning why the KJV is the preferred translation of the Bible. WARNING: If you are a fan of the Nestle text, you not like this book, but you really should read it.

This review is from: Touch Not the Unclean Thing : The Text Issue and Separation (Paperback)
This is a great book. It covers the basics and beginnings of the text issue. A must read for clarity supplying discussion and answers to modern issues. It is written from a much appreciated faith perspective that God has promised to protect and preserve His Word.

This review is from: Touch Not the Unclean Thing : The Text Issue and Separation (Paperback)
Sorenson has delivered a masterpiece with his book Touch Not the Unclean Thing. He writes in an even-keeled manner that is not offensive, doesn't stretch facts, and, yet, makes his point. This text digs in to several areas of interest more than some other books and papers that I have read on this topic (Textus Receptus versus the Critical Text). Specifically, he digs in more on Westcott and Hort's interest in occult activities, Bruce Metzger's liberalness, and many useful tidbits about some of the key players from the past and present (on both sides of this issue). Sorenson further explains some of the main positions (there are more than two) on this issue. He also has a couple of chapters set aside to explain (supported by Scripture) why the Bible-believing Christian should separate him or herself from fellowship which involves any Bible that is not built upon a foundation based on the Textus Receptus. Lastly, one of my favorite chapters (although the author admits it is somewhat speculative in nature) is about the reasons that most churches and seminaries in America have departed from their 'first love' - a Bible based on the true text. Other good books on this topic include anything by John Burgon, Which Bible? by David Fuller, Which Version is the Bible? by Floyd Jones, Forever Settled by Jack Moorman, and Defending the King James Bible by D.A. Waite. None of these are in favor of what I believe is the wrong view that the King James Bible was directly inspired by God. They are all in agreement (as am I) that the King James is the best English translation available and that what is known today as the Textus Receptus is the true preserved (by God) Greek text of the New Testament (the text behind the KJV NT). I highly recommend this book. It is easy to read and one of the best among all I have read.
