For neither does any of us set himself up as a bishop of bishops, nor by tyrannical terror does any compel his colleague to the necessity of obedience; since every bishop, according to the allowance of his liberty and power, has his own proper right of judgment, and can no more be judged by another than he himself can judge ... ...

203: The Septuagint: God approved Translation in every synagogue like ...
At the time of Jesus, Aramaic was the native language but Greek was the working language of all Jews the world over. Weekly Synagogue sabbath worship services were conducted entirely in Greek not Hebrew and the Septuagint was their Bible. Christians regard the translation KJV as the word of God in exactly the same way that Jews at the time of Jesus regarded the translation Septuagint. Each of the thousands of synagogues in and outside Judea used the Septuagint as their standard Bible for worship, preaching and devotional reading. Augustine in 400 AD makes this timeless observation true of Jews in 100 BC and Christians today: "Nevertheless, the Church has adopted the Septuagint as if it were the only translation. Indeed, ...

204: Exodus Route: Men who misled the world away from truth
Most preachers in the church have no idea what the date of the exodus is. When they do venture to guess, most of the time they incorrectly name Ramesses II (1250 BC) as the pharaoh of the Exodus. What these preachers don't know is that the late date of the exodus (1250 BC) guts the inspiration of the Bible. Since 2005 AD the author had proposed a Red Sea crossing at the Straits of Tiran in 1446 BC, a Mt. Sinai somewhere in north Saudi Arabia, most likely Mt. Lawz and Kadesh Barnea located at El Beidha near modern Petra. The author did not discover the exodus route, he restored it by using the Bible alone. Only then were archeological synchronisms in chronology, cartography and ancient ...
