Frank Turk, who, unlike me, likes to argue and does it rather well, is taking on a defender of the Textus Receptus as the only preserved Word of God at his DebateBlog. I expect it to be an interesting and enlightening exchange on a topic that I have been on both sides of. That is, a topic both sides of which I have been on. No . . . a topic on which I have been on both sides. Curse you, prepositions!

Frank‘s opponent, Kent Brandenburg, will affirm that “The Greek Textus Receptus text of the New Testament is God‘s verbal, plenary preserved Word of God (of the New Testament).” Frank will take the “No, it ain‘t” position. I expect him to win handily.

The debate begins here.

Now that I‘ve plugged the debate, I‘m counting on Frank to not embarrass me by getting his butt* kicked.
