The Characteristics of Vaticanus and Sinaiticus: PART THREE


History Cont:

Origen's claim to fame was his masterpiece of corruption called "The Hexapla." It consisted of six versions juxtaposed, and he would freely change and verse he didn't like. His FIRST Verse was 1 John 5:7:
(1 John 5:7 KJV) "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
A watershed event took place in 313 AD when Emperor Constantine saw a vision in the sky of a cross and he then believed he became saved. (NOT). However, when he described the shape of the cross, he had described the Egyptian Ankh. Satan had DECEIVED this unsaved man into thinking that God gave him the vision. From that time, the persecustions against the Christians had stopped. Satan could not defeat Christianity through murder or torture, so he devised a NEW method called " spiritual espionage." He used Constantine to stop the pogroms and declare Christianity was now the state religion. In effect, he became the first Pope.

Constantine's first edict in 331 AD. was to have fifty Bibles made up so he called on a man named Eusebius. Eusebius was mightily influenced by the teachings of Origen which resulted in him believing the same way, which means he was NOT a Christian. Eusebius had a good oppotunity to use the pure manuscripts from Antioch, but instead, he chose the CORRUPTED texts from Alexandria, and thus the foundation for the Modern Bibles were FORMED. He used the fifth column in Origen's Hexapla. It is strongly believed in both camps that the foundational texts for the Modern Bibles, the Vaticanus and Sinaiticus manuscripts, were two of the original Fifty Bibles that Eusebius made up. However, there is no specific evidence for this since both the Vaticanus and Sinaiticus differ from each other in over 3,000 places in the Gospels alone, which in my mind, would tell me that they could not have been made by the same scribes from the same manuscripts at the same time. If they were copied from the same manuscripts, there would not be that much divergence.
