(Protestia) Christianity Today has issued a correction and apology for publishing an article arguing that Jesus wasn’t nailed to the cross, with the author saying that he failed to consider Jesus’ interactions with Thomas in John 20:25 and, as a result, unintentionally “called into question the inerrancy of Scripture.”
Days ago, Daniel Silliman, the senior news editor of CT, wrote Was Jesus Crucified with Nails?, where Jeffrey P. Arroyo García, an ‘evangelical biblical scholar’ who teaches at Gordon College, insisted that Jesus likely wasn’t nailed to the cross but instead was merely secured with ropes when he perished. Silliman entertained this erroneous speculation, throwing a bit of cover and intrigued to help him make his case.
The X post sharing the article was instantly reviled and rationed into oblivion. It received 2.8M impressions at the time of writing and only 810 ‘likes,’ with multiple critical responses far outpacing it.
CRN has compiled a list of false teachers and several other professing Christians we’ve warned you about over the years. The list also contains those we must keep an eye on plus movements, organizations and “frauds, phonies and money-grubbing religious quacks” to mark and avoid as per Romans 16:17-18 such as Russell Moore.
