SUMMARY:Scripture Series
DESCRIPTION:Who Changed the New Testament? And Why? \nThe Bible is the Word of God – but it is written in the words of human beings. We don’t have the original manuscripts of any of the books of the New Testament. The earliest manuscripts we have are copies of copies of copies that don’t agree with each other. Who made the changes to the oldest manuscripts? What did they change? And why did they make those changes? \nMark Etling\, PhD teaches theology at Saint Louis University’s School for Professional Studies. He also gives presentations on Scripture and Christian history at the Shrine\, for Oasis-St. Louis and at various parishes in the St. Louis and Belleville dioceses. Mark and his wife Alicia live in the Lafayette Square neighborhood in St. Louis. If you would like Mark to speak at your parish or organization\, please go to his website: www.marketling.org \nRegister online or call 618-394-6281.
