Declaration

For nearly two decades, we have written this blog. We are approaching two thousand published posts. This sustained testimony bears witness to how deeply these teachings have affected us—not as distant observers, but as people who have been wounded over time.

As members of Bible-Presbyterian churches in Singapore, we have lived under the weight of this false doctrine. It has fractured congregations, divided families, and distorted our relationship with Christ. What should have been a place of spiritual nourishment became a site of confusion, fear, and coercion.

We write from pain.

We have been told that "only" the King James Version is the true Word of God.

We have seen deceptive doctrines promoted under the banner of “Verbal Plenary Preservation.”

We have watched the Textus Receptus declared flawless and untouchable, beyond historical inquiry or faithful scholarship.

We have endured harassment and condemnation simply for reading the ESV, CUV, NIV, and other faithful translations of Scripture.

These teachers do not merely argue their position; they enforce it. Their conduct has often been harsh, uncharitable, and spiritually abusive. Instead of shepherding consciences, they wound them. Instead of defending truth, they weaponize it.

We do not write out of spite, but out of sorrow and moral urgency. The suffering caused by these teachings must not be ignored, minimized, or repeated. Those who teach falsely will one day be accountable—not only for the doctrines they promote, but for the lives they damage in the process.

This is our witness.

This is our lament.

And this is our call for truth, repentance, and healing.
