In today video, I give some thoughts on my interview with Dr. Jeff Riddle. It turns out that the "Which TR" question I asked is a much bigger problem than a cursory look entails. Here I explain why I can’t fully commit to the confession/traditional text position after giving some thoughts on my interview with Dr. Jeff Riddle. I love the TR, or the Traditional text, or the Confessional text… whatever you want to call it, but I fall short of considering it the 100% ‘Kept pure in all ages’ text.
