Hermeneutics compiled the Bible? Need Help to Answer a Baptist

[wfr]

Hi Cindy,
If I may be completly candid, your friend has no idea what she is talking about! First hermenutics is simply a method of interpretation. It does not and cannot speak as to insparation. Ask her to define the word for you.

As to the KJV, ask her if she knows that the KJV we have today has gone through many revisions since 1611. For instance in 1613 a new edition of the KJV was released with over 400 corrections.

Ask her if she knows that the 1611 KJV contained the deuterocanonical books. Ask when and why they were removed.

Frankly I don’t know if you should waste your time on this person. Please feel free to PM me or e-mail me if you like at bill.rutland@gmail.com and I will help any way I can.

PAX CHRISTI

Bill

**Hello again dear friends on CAF.

**Now to be honest, I have no idea what she is saying here. I never heard of Hermeneutics, and what has that to do with the Bible being a Catholic book which we all know is a fact. I need your help in answering her on this one because I’m stumped with this response. I have no idea what she’s getting at. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me out with this one.
God bless you all.
please find me on FB by the name Cindy Quinto. Maybe you can help me directly with this debate. ****

The roots of the Church of England go back to the time of the Roman Empire when Christianity entered the Roman province of Britain. Through the influences of St Alban, St Illtud, St Ninian, St Patrick and, later, St Augustine, St Aidan and St Cuthbert, the Church of England developed, acknowledging the authority of the Pope until the Reformation in the 16th century.

The religious settlement that eventually emerged in the reign of Elizabeth I gave the Church of England the distinctive identity that it has retained to this day. It resulted in a Church that consciously retained a large amount of continuity with the Church of the Patristic and Medieval periods in terms of its use of the catholic creeds, its pattern of ministry, its buildings and aspects of its liturgy, but which also embodied Protestant insights in its theology and in the overall shape of its liturgical practice. The way that this is often expressed is by saying that the Church of England is both ‘catholic and reformed.’

KJV onlyist’s tends to call Anglican Church, “Catholic Lite”.

The KJV came from the Anglican Church.

First, point out the origins of the Church in England.
Then point out that that Church in England gave US the KJV.

Later, when her own church people refers to Anglicans as being “catholic lite” it will create a little coginative disoance.

Also, ask her who in history translated the Bible? And, who copied all those Greek texts? Push for scholars and names.
