Ft. Mike Ferrando, Nick Sayers, Mike Hollner, Joey Faust, and Ante Pavkovic.
Did Erasmus add 1 John 5:7 to the Bible as scholars claim? Why is this verse lacking in Greek manuscript evidence? And are there any witnesses to this verse in the early church? Can we prove this verse is inspired?
The 1 John 5:7 discussion begins at timestamp 28:04

1 John 5:7-8 KJV: For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
1 John 5:7-8 ESV: For there are three that testify: the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree.
