This is a great quote:
“Gossip involves saying behind a person’s back what you would never say to his or her face. Flattery means saying to a person’s face what you would never say behind his or her back.” – R. Kent Hughes, Disciplines of a Godly Man, p. 139.

I just finished reading an interesting account of how The Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts was called in to investigate a newly discovered Biblical manuscript. If you have ever wondered how scholars go about determining the authenticity of manuscripts, this is a good read. It’s like a detective story. In the end, their detective work (along with the help of Google) revealed that it was a modern day forgery.
