TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING by David H Sorenson
This book by David Sorenson defends the traditional Received Text of the New Testament and by extension, the King James Version of the Bible. The author documents that most all editors of the modern Critical Text, from which we get the current modern Bible versions, have direct associations with theological liberalism or apostasy. Plus, there is documented proof that the two principal architects were both involved with occult activities throughout the time they were producing their version of the Critical Text. Dr. Sorenson also clearly exposes how the person of the Lord Jesus Christ has been diminished and major doctrines diluted in modern translations of the Bible based upon the Critical Text. Specifically, he documents the diminution of the person of Jesus Christ in the NIV and NASB. "Touch Not the Unclean Thing" documents the following:
- The three major textual positions
- The basic error of Peter Ruckman's postion
- The rationalism and apostasy associated with the critical text
- The theological liberalism of Westcott and Hort
- The involvement of Westcott and Hort in the occult
- The dilution of major doctrines in the NIV and NASB
- The diminution of the person of Jesus Christ in the NIV and NASB
- The influence of Erasmus on the Anabaptists

2 Corinthians 6:14-18
"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty."
