Hey Lin,
I know how you feel.  I have been floored by what I have read on Ben Witherington’s blog.  He and I have had a few go-arounds over the last year or so.  I took exception to his claim that the early Christians “noodled” with the original Greek text of the New Testament.  His comments cause people to question the reliability of scripture.  By the way he has a copy of my DVD but it is far too conservative for his liking.  He doesn’t like that I hold to a fully inspired bible with inspired words and inspired grammar.  He does not hold to such a high view of scripture so I am not in his good books.

In my own study of the “LORD of hosts” for the Trinity DVD, I was so overwhelmed with the presence of Jesus in the OT that it blew me away.  It did the same thing for my pastor who read my script.  He said that he saw Jesus in the OT in a way that he had never seen him before.  Is Jesus there in the OT?  Absolutely!  And those who would seek to take him out and make the OT live without the imprint of Jesus in all of the divisions of its scriptures are blinded in my opinion.  I do not know what has blinded them, but I believe they need to be witnessed to.
