Good luck with attributing the consistency of the Torah to the actions of a group of men, instead of giving Abba Father YHWH the Glory!
This is the Greatest Story Ever Told! The End was Determined from The Beginning. Everyone plays their part in getting to the appointed set of events at the appointed times.
The question is: Where are you going to be in the next cycle? In the New Heaven or in Perdition? Is your name in the Book of Life?

First, do have any reason whatsoever for believing what you do, or do you "just believe" it for no reason? Are you even capable of trying to prove your beliefs are correct or are you one of those people who believes if he just repeats enough "new testament" verses and chrstian claims that your interlocutor will suddenly "get happy" and suddenly agree with you?
Second of all, the authentic Bible is a hand-written Torah Scroll, which is written according to (unwritten) laws that guarantee that it will be identical to the First Torah Scroll? Your magical Thomas Nelson bible is a mere translation of this (adulterated with the "new testament"). If the "doctrine and commandments of men" that guarantee an authentic Biblical text are false and ee-vil, then so is your Thomas Nelson bible. The ancient Israelites didn't have printing presses; their Torah Scrolls were hand-written, and if there were no oral laws protecting the true text, there would be no authentic text in existence.
Also since the Oral Torah includes all the vowels and punctuation, you would have to have a bible translated from nothing but a string of 304,000+ consonants. Good luck with that.
Your Reformation argument with the Catholic Church is completely out of place on this subject.
