Aramaic Primacy in the East

[Paul Younan]

Thanks for the reply! It seemed to used to be the "scholarly consensus" in the East when the Church of the East was at the peak of its power. The writings of William Norton and those he sited appear to point towards that conclusion.

Then "evangelists", radio, television and the internet came. Along with the western viewpoint on everything from the language of scripture, to the Incarnation.

Instead of "evangelizing" those without Christ (read: Muslims), they chose the easier target: other Christians of other denominations. At least they wouldn't chop your head off for blaspheming their religion. The "evangelists" became "proselytizers" instead. Like I said, easier target.

As for Aramaic primacy, I've not heard a single sermon on it (nor, should I)
