Dear Pastor,

It didn't take me long to see that you are just as wrong as those you are rightly criticizing. The commonality in the error in both parties parallels the error found in 2 Peter 3:16, He {Paul} writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

You also fall into the same debate regarding the accuracy of Scripture that so many opponents of God, Jesus, and the Bible disseminate. I should think common sense would tell a person that any voluminous set of books will have "typos" here and there, perhaps like the Encyclopedia Britannica. Such errors hardly negate the entire work.

The Bible has some 850,000 words! I don't know about you, but with me every other sentence has a typo! However, the preservation of Scripture had much more diligent and skilled people working at it.

Inadvertently, I believe, you are supporting the wrong movement.

Here's a working example I have recently realized: Paul is at one point talking to married women who are disturbing the assembly and the pastor's preaching, and in another place talking to unmarried women to understand they are free to marry.

When Paul wrote So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (Galatians 3:26-28), I would recommend that everything else he wrote on the subject be interpreted in light of those overarching principles.

If it were appropriate, I would discuss several other points that, in my opinion, you have gotten off track. If you apply what I have pointed out, I am sure you are intelligent enough to figure out those for yourself.
