Pastors have slammed back at a research conducted by renowned Biblical scholar, Bart D. Ehrman who makes the charges in his new book “Forged” stating that
* At least 11 of the 27 New Testament books are forgeries.
* The New Testament books attributed to Jesus’ disciples could not have been written by them because they were illiterate.
Ehrman also says that two of Jesus’ original disciples, John and Peter, could not have written the books attributed to them in the New Testament because they were illiterate.
But Rev. Pius of the Catholic faith has urge believes to distance themselves from the research stating that the disciples had their own way of writing directed from God.
He explains that during those times, scribes (writers) were available documenting historic events hence the development of writing were already in existence
Rev Pius notes that these events and researches are clear indications of the end time.
A Biblical scholar at the Calvary Baptist Church, Rev. Kyei Mensah challenged the research to go back to the scriptures for clearer classification.
He says the New Testament is absolutely true and genuine as recorded in the Bible. Rev. Mensah stated that the Holy Spirit led the disciples to document the word of God.
According to him, whoever had drought about the Bible have problem with God.
End.

Herbert Mensah ready to release GHC 90 million security tape
Former Chief Executive Officer of Asante Kotoko, Herbert Mensah says he is ready to release the security tape on which he alleges President Mills’ campaign team planned to use GHC 90 million for his flagbearership bid.
In an off air interview on Friday, Mr. Mensah said he will give the team of Adom FM’s morning show, Dwaso Nsem, the opportunity to listen to the two-hour security tape which he and former President Rawlings had access to from the Castle.
There is a catch however; he will let the team be privy to only a 9-minute discussion on the GHC 90 million campaign budget which they can play back to listeners on Dwaso Nsem on Monday, May 16.
The exact day, location and time were not disclosed due to the sensitive nature of the matter.
On Tuesday May 10, Herbert Mensah, a strong supporter of the Rawlingses, alleged that he and former President Jerry Rawlings had discovered from security tapes they got from the Castle that President Mills’ campaign team planned to use about GHC90 million to fuel his campaign for flag bearer of the NDC.
He was however not willing to go into details on the matter such as where the funds will be coming from, stating that at the appropriate time, they will come out with the full details.
That allegation has generated so much controversy with government officials and NDC officials all speaking on the matter and flatly denying the story.
Even President Mills in an interview with Asempa FM denied the allegation and called on National Security to immediately investigate the matter.
The President laughingly said if he had access to such funds, he would have used it to complete the various road construction projects ongoing in the country.
The National Security Advisor, Brigadier General Nunoo Mensah has also hinted he will invite Herbert Mensah for questioning over the allegations.
Mr. Mensah himself has not been spared as he has been thoroughly bashed by NDC supporters and government officials who have called him all kinds of name from being a liar to being an enemy of the Rawlingses who wants to bring the NDC down.
Speaking on the release of the tapes on Dwaso Nsem on Friday, Major (Rtd) Boakye Gyan said Adom FM will do its listeners and the whole country a disservice if they refuse to go and listen to the tape.
He explained that the alleged security tape is of national interest which should not be hidden.
The former Journalist and security expert however cautioned that the appropriate background checks be made to verify the voices on that tape to ensure that it is genuine before it is released for public consumption.

Mr Ato Forson said the delegates have already accepted and voted for the President in advance by helping to fuel cars and providing shelter for the campaign team.

Mr Ato Forson stated that those behind the allegation only want to tarnish the good image and reputation of the President.
He emphasized that the team is not using state funds to run the campaign but depend on little contributions made by donors and supporters.

Kofi Jumah urges Prez Mills to pull out of NDC flag bearer race
He said the NPP hijacked the airwaves, both radio and TV the whole day when they were electing their flag bearer.
He also criticized the NPP for using state funds to orchestrate their campaign in 2008 and turning around to accuse President Mills of doing the same.
He described Communications Director of the NPP, Nana Akomea, as a disgrace to the youth because he does not exhibit the true virtues of a youth leader but rather issues uninformed statement on behalf of the NPP.
Yaw Boateng Gyan noted that President Mills is not interested in using state money to fuel his campaign.
