Acts 20:29 I know that after my going away oppressive wolves will enter in among you and will not treat the flock with tenderness, 30 and from among you yourselves men will rise and speak twisted things to draw away the disciples after themselves.
it would seem Jesus was correct .twisted things do now abound
Of all the thousands of NT manuscript copies which still exist today there are only a very small number (mostly fragments) which are not from this completely trinitarian-dominated time period (381 A.D. to present). Any changes made by copyists in this time period would, obviously, be trinitarian changes (or else!)! And it is well known that from 325 A. D. (when the emperor, who presided over the Nicene council, and his trinitarian advisors had the anti-trinitarians banished and persecuted and their anti-trinitarian writings burned - see the HIST study) onward the Roman church began systematically destroying (and changing) writings and manuscripts which were considered non-trinitarian or otherwise “heretical”!
There are other problems associated with the existing copies of the writings of these very early Christians.
Non-Trinitarians like to say that the Trinitarians won out and everything became corrupted and should not be trusted.
Jesus said,
- Now I say to you that you are Peter (which means ‘rock’), and upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it. NLT
Even though apostasy was coming, Jesus said that the Church that He was establishing was not going to be overthrown. There was no total apostasy otherwise you would be saying that Jesus was wrong. If there was total apostasy and Jesus was wrong, we can not even trust the scriptures. So, what Jesus started continued after his death. Those that dissolved were not the true Christianity but Gnosticism, Arianism, and those at the Nicene council trying to survive. True Christianity prevailed and never died off as Jesus promised.
