It is with ambivalence I think of him, Jacob. He is a very sharp scholar on the textual issues – taking a pointed stand against those who differ; a watch-dog of sorts for the IFBs – and a vehement adversary on Calvinism. I like to study his objections to Reformed doctrine so as to keep on my toes and sharpen my blade. He is a godly man, though those targets of his attacks likely think not; he is serious about separation from error and worldliness; he discerns many encroachments of error and ungodliness into the church. I like and respect him, even though we would contend on some issues.
With regard to the Critical Text vs the AV, I've noticed that both Charles Spurgeon and Alexander Maclaren preferred the Revised Version of 1881 to that of the AV, more often than not.
