About Confessional Bibliology

Mission Statement:
Confessional Bibliology stands at the crossroads of historical theology, textual criticism, and biblical authority to challenge modern approaches to the Scriptures that undermine the authenticity and integrity of the traditional biblical text. Our purpose is unapologetically clear: to stand firm in the Confessional Bibliology stance and silence the mouths of those who promote unbelieving assumptions regarding the preservation and authority of the Word of God.

We are not merely observers of the ongoing debate on textual criticism—we are active participants and defenders of the traditional text. Our approach is grounded in the belief that God has providentially preserved His Word throughout the ages, as affirmed by the Reformers and upheld in the historic confessions of faith. Through this platform, we engage rigorously with modern methodologies, critique critical scholarship, and reassert the historical and theological validity of the Textus Receptus and the Masoretic Hebrew texts.

What We Do:

  1. Foundational Articles: We publish in-depth articles, series, and exegesis on key issues in the preservation and authority of Scripture. Our approach covers historical, doctrinal, and theological themes, offering well-researched and accessible resources for those committed to upholding traditional biblical texts.
  2. Detailed Exegesis and Commentary: We provide scholarly analysis on textual variants, focusing on their doctrinal implications and the historical evidence supporting traditional readings. Our exegesis aims to affirm the integrity of the biblical text as it has been received throughout church history.
  3. Critical Book Reviews and Presuppositional Analysis: We critically review significant works related to textual criticism and offer detailed presuppositional analyses. Our reviews and analyses go beyond surface-level critique, revealing the philosophical assumptions and theological implications of modern approaches.
  4. Multimedia Engagement: We expand our content reach through video series, debates, and documentary-style presentations that dissect key textual issues and engage directly with opposing perspectives.

Our Vision Moving Forward:

Strategic Outline

1. Establishing Authority and Foundation:
We aim to build a comprehensive understanding of Confessional Bibliology’s stance on textual preservation. This includes a series on the historical role of the church, the impact of the Enlightenment on textual criticism, and the ongoing debate over the canon. These foundational articles are designed to educate, equip, and arm believers with historical and theological defenses of the traditional text.

  • Key Initiatives:
    • Publish articles on the historical preservation role of the church.
    • Develop series critiquing the evolution of modern textual criticism from the Enlightenment to today.

2. Expanding Scholarly Analysis:
We provide detailed exegesis and commentary on key textual variants, emphasizing their theological importance. Our approach challenges modern translations where doctrinal differences arise due to textual changes. Through careful analysis and historical context, we reaffirm traditional readings and their doctrinal foundations.

  • Key Initiatives:
    • Publish comparative studies of the AV, NKJV, and modern translations.
    • Create interactive videos explaining key variants.

3. Critical Reviews and Engagement:
We critically engage with key figures and debates in modern textual criticism. By offering comprehensive reviews of scholars like Richard Simon, Karl Lachmann, Westcott, and Hort, we expose the philosophical presuppositions that underlie their work. We also address debates from institutions like the Text and Canon Institute, providing historical and theological rebuttals.

  • Key Initiatives:
    • Publish in-depth biographies and reviews of key textual critics.
    • Host discussions and response videos addressing critiques from opposing perspectives.

4. Accessible and Engaging Content:
We recognize that a multi-platform approach is vital in reaching a broader audience. By converting our quarterly articles into interactive PDFs, creating audio versions for those who prefer listening, and producing engaging videos, we ensure our message is clear, accessible, and compelling.

  • Key Initiatives:
    • Include curated lists of supporting articles and external links in quarterly PDFs.
    • Offer downloadable timelines, infographics, and companion PDFs with cross-references.
    • Launch an interactive forum for discussions and scholarly exchange.
