Klimmer, et al....

Have you studied bible history (as opposed to "biblical history")? The texts were written by men - the apostles, etc. Not "GOD". Some were published in the bible, others were rejected as "heresy." Not very God-like, if some GOD-written texts were rejected by men, eh?

The book of John was the most radical example of a book that was in line with the views the Christians. It's tone is much different than Matthew, Mark, and Luke.

Example for 10 points - Who was Constantine?

For 20 points - If the biblical texts (the writings of the apostles) are the word of God, why are some of them not in the bible?




Dave,

Yes the books, letters, passages now collected in The Holy Bible were written by men. However, they were inspired by GOD.

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16)

Yes, there are books that are written that should be in The Holy Bible, such as The Book of Enoch, and I'm sure there are others. Men and Councils of men, decided what would stay and what would go. Some of those decisions were wrong and based on pure politics, and perhaps to keep man down so he wouldn't know his full history. Lucifer is cunning. However, some of these books are being rediscovered and being read more by many people today.

This is just my hunch, my guess, "a Christian hypothesis," but when you read the Good Book you realize that certain numbers stand out and are important to GOD. Like the number 7. The Protestant Bible has 66 books. That is an odd number. Perhaps there were really 70 books that should have been included or 77? I don't know, it is just a guess. Something to ponder.

However, I do think there is a way to validate whether another Book out there should be included, and to test whether or not it is truly inspired by GOD. It should have his seal of approval or his "watermark," and that would be to run it through a complete and thorough test of Bible Code. If hidden codes do not appear in the questioned book, as they have now appeaared in all the books of the accepted bible, both in the Hebrew and King James, then perhaps the book in question is not inspired.

I would love to see such a test done with The Book of Enoch. My guess is that it is the inspired word of GOD and would pass with flying colors. It completely agrees with the word we have written and fully expounds upon certain stories and aspects of our hidden history. Especially, the Fallen Angels mating with beautiful Earthly women and having offspring called Nephilim. Everything on Earth really went South from there, bigtime. Certain people of power did not want that very important full story that Enoch related to his offspring told and shared. Someone wanted to keep man in ignorance of the truth. HHHhhhhhmmmm, who could that be?

Constantine, the Roman Emperor who eventually accepted the faith of Christianity and he himself became a Christian. But then that is where many wrong decisions were made regarding books and Christian practices wasn't it? Destroy the Church of GOD by acceptance, and changing it for the worst from the inside. What a Devilish plan.

Again, I do think there are some Books from The Holy Bible that are missing. Run them through the Bible Code test and see if they pass. They should have GOD's seal of approval if they are. And none should contradict what we already know, such as The Book of Enoch. Enoch's Book further explains with very elaborate detail regarding a particular truth and situation that is already mentioned in Genesis. It is a very important book to read. It explains so much. It gives great insight into the last days as well. The Return of the Nephilim . . . It is important to know what they are all about. Hint, they are not good.

dave--

just a couple notes from modern scholars.

perhaps the most influential early gospel was the gospel of thomas, which was totally supressed by the orthodoxy imposed by emperor constantine. the gospel of john was written in polemic against the gospel of thomas. there was a real controversy at the time, and the john people won. we were all taught how "deep" the gospel of john is. try the gospel of thomas out for size and see what it does to your christian point of view.

an interesting sidelight is that none of the gospels were written by the people whose names they bear. this is something most scholars seem to agree upon, no matter their personal points of view. the gospels were named after prominent people associated with the life of christ, sort of seeking a "sponsor" for them. there are many early gospels. modern christians only deal with four.
