Yes likely true. But even one error calls into question the superstitious presumption of inerrancy of NT scripture.

All the so-called "errors" are minor discrepancies in word tenses and the like.
No there's more to it than that. Example : The Comma Johanneum of 1 John 5:7-8 ; The end of Mark, and even the adulterous woman of cast the first stone in the Gospel of John. These are hefty changes, not word tenses and such.

Also the dates of newly uncovered manuscripts continue to improve. For example, "the Chester Beatty Papyrus II, containing all of Paul's epistles except the Pastorals (I Tim, II Tim, Titus) has recently been dated to the late 1st century." -- P.W. Comfort, The Origin of the Bible
Yes, and I believe is why 1 and 11 Timothy and Titus are suspected forgeries.

awareness, it is highly unfair to other forum readers for you to continually make distorted and exaggerated claims in order to discredit the scriptures. I really wish you would do some unbiased investigative research into these areas, and not just quote untested internet sources which are designed to simply breed doubts and questionings.
Most of my learning comes from reading books, not from the web.
