Misquoting Jesus

:bigwhoop:Well I still like the Bible and I use it for reference often.

It is hard to give details because Christianity has worked so hard to silence the sourses of true scholar Biblical criticism.

It doesn't seem to be too hard for you to use references to point out truths about God; which means there are certain truths in the Bible. How is it you can extrapolate certain parts as fact and others as not; implying you know which to use and which not to use, yet can’t tell me which parts are false? This has to be some sort of divine intervention. I would like a list of the false parts of the Bible so I can avoid them. Can you help me out with this? Or are you just making it up as you go along?

:whistle: Well I searched it out for myself through many books and other reference over years and I told a couple references in my last post.

It is simple now that I learned it but you have to seek the truth yourself if you want to learn it too.

A link as a great place to start on the infamous "Synoptic problem" is here.

There are some easy known parts that are false like the last chapter of the Gospel of Mark, and most of Job, Revelations is largely copied from other books, Daniel is a Maccabee fraud written around 165 BC, and the J, E, P, D, sources are fascinating.

The old books are still available on Biblical scholarly criticism if one searches for them, and they explain the differences in detail so anyone can see it and understand the issues.

The birth of Christ in Matthew and the other one in Luke are add on to the text but it is not necessarily a fraud as it just means putting the stories together from different sources.

After finding the false and fraudulant parts then the rest is scripture.

It is like finding the pieces of a puzzle and the results are enlightening.:yahoo:

Hi JPC,
I thought you should read this

Westminister Confession of faith

Chapter I
Of the Holy Scripture
I. Although the light of nature, and the works of creation and providence do so far manifest the goodness, wisdom, and power of God, as to leave men unexcusable;[1] yet are they not sufficient to give that knowledge of God, and of His will, which is necessary unto salvation.[2] Therefore it pleased the Lord, at sundry times, and in divers manners, to reveal Himself, and to declare that His will unto His Church;[3] and afterwards for the better preserving and propagating of the truth, and for the more sure establishment and comfort of the Church against the corruption of the flesh, and the malice of Satan and of the world, to commit the same wholly unto writing;[4] which makes the Holy Scripture to be most necessary;[5] those former ways of God's revealing His will unto His people being now ceased.[6]

II. Under the name of Holy Scripture, or the Word of God written, are now contained all the books of the Old and New Testament, which are these: Of the Old Testament: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, I Samuel, II Samuel, I Kings, II Kings, I Chronicles, II Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, The Song of Songs, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi. Of the New Testament: The Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, The Acts of the Apostles, Paul's Epistles to the Romans, Corinthians I, Corinthians II, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, Thessalonians I , Thessalonians II , To Timothy I , To Timothy II, To Titus, To Philemon, The Epistle to the Hebrews, The Epistle of James, The first and second Epistles of Peter, The first, second, and third Epistles of John, The Epistle of Jude, The Revelation of John. All which are given by inspiration of God to be the rule of faith and life.[7]

III. The books commonly called Apocrypha, not being of divine inspiration, are no part of the canon of the Scripture, and therefore are of no authority in the Church of God, nor to be any otherwise approved, or made use of, than other human writings.[8]

IV. The authority of the Holy Scripture, for which it ought to be believed, and obeyed, depends not upon the testimony of any man, or Church; but wholly upon God (who is truth itself) the author thereof: and therefore it is to be received, because it is the Word of God.[9]

V. We may be moved and induced by the testimony of the Church to an high and reverent esteem of the Holy Scripture.[10] And the heavenliness of the matter, the efficacy of the doctrine, the majesty of the style, the consent of all the parts, the scope of the whole (which is, to give all glory to God), the full discovery it makes of the only way of man's salvation, the many other incomparable excellencies, and the entire perfection thereof, are arguments whereby it does abundantly evidence itself to be the Word of God: yet notwithstanding, our full persuasion and assurance of the infallible truth and divine authority thereof, is from the inward work of the Holy Spirit bearing witness by and with the Word in our hearts.[11]

VI. The whole counsel of God concerning all things necessary for His own glory, man's salvation, faith and life, is either expressly set down in Scripture, or by good and necessary consequence may be deduced from Scripture: unto which nothing at any time is to be added, whether by new revelations of the Spirit, or traditions of men.[12] Nevertheless, we acknowledge the inward illumination of the Spirit of God to be necessary for the saving understanding of such things as are revealed in the Word:[13] and that there are some circumstances concerning the worship of God, and government of the Church, common to human actions and societies, which are to be ordered by the light of nature, and Christian prudence, according to the general rules of the Word, which are always to be observed.[14]

VII. All things in Scripture are not alike plain in themselves, nor alike clear unto all:[15] yet those things which are necessary to be known, believed, and observed for salvation are so clearly propounded, and opened in some place of Scripture or other, that not only the learned, but the unlearned, in a due use of the ordinary means, may attain unto a sufficient understanding of them.[16]

VIII. The Old Testament in Hebrew (which was the native language of the people of God of old), and the New Testament in Greek (which, at the time of the writing of it, was most generally known to the nations), being immediately inspired by God, and, by His singular care and providence, kept pure in all ages, are therefore authentical;[17] so as, in all controversies of religion, the Church is finally to appeal unto them.[18] But, because these original tongues are not known to all the people of God, who have right unto, and interest in the Scriptures, and are commanded, in the fear of God, to read and search them,[19] therefore they are to be translated in to the vulgar language of every nation unto which they come,[20] that, the Word of God dwelling plentifully in all, they may worship Him in an acceptable manner;[21] and, through patience and comfort of the Scriptures, may have hope.[22]

IX. The infallible rule of interpretation of Scripture is the Scripture itself: and therefore, when there is a question about the true and full sense of any Scripture (which is not manifold, but one), it must be searched and known by other places that speak more clearly.[23]

X. The supreme judge by which all controversies of religion are to be determined, and all decrees of councils, opinions of ancient writers, doctrines of men, and private spirits, are to be examined, and in whose sentence we are to rest, can be no other but the Holy Spirit speaking in the Scripture.[24]

:whistle:That document was written in 1646 link HERE and so Biblical criticism was not exposed to the public at that time.

This is a modern explanation link HERE that explains the synoptic problem,

so why can you not explore the modern info ?

or why can you not believe the old and now the new info too?

We need to accept the truth wherever we find it,

and reject any un-truth wherever we find that.

But refusing to seek the truth is not the same thing.:howdy:

Here’s the problem JPC… you are a contrarian and an anarchist. You refute commonly understood truths and cling to your own singular interpretation of things. You snub the law, you snub your responsibilities, and you snub the Word of God. You have a trend. There are rules on this earth that you refuse to abide by. It seems your every waking moment is spent trying to figure out how to manipulate that which is widely accepted as the truth. Your radical views will never allow you to see the truth and live a truly peaceful life.

:diva: That is again just attacking the messanger to avoid the message.

The same as "Marie" did above by saying some 1645 minister is so worthy that we must believe him above others.

With Jesus Christ they attacked Him the messanger to silence His message.

PsyOps is preaching a convinient truth that keeps the sheep safe and secure but failing to take up a cross.:boxing:

:popcorn:The video on that link refers to the Greek and Aramaic New Testiment and not the Hebrew Old Testiment,

so it was not Jewish scribes but rather the early Roman then Catholic writers that affected the Christian New Testiment.
:buddies:

More untruth.

There are thousands of manuscripts from the first century of the books of the New Testament and they are consistent. They existed before the Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire and were not the subject of Roman scribes.

:bigwhoop: I say that 2A has not-purposely shown a big reason for the confusion,

as many people worship Christianity but then dis-regard the Christ of the Bible.

Because Jesus Christ does not say the same things as does Christianity say. :popcorn:

How do you worship Christianity? You cannot.

Christianity is the term for the worship of Jesus, the Christ, God manifest as man, the Prince of Peace, the Word, the Alpha and Omega, YHWH, Y'howah, the One True God, the I AM.

...

There are books in the Bible like Jonah and Esther that are more like children's tales than actual lies, like the three pigs or Robin Hood, ect.

The books are not true but they give a point to children. :diva:

Or could it be that God defies being defined by people like you and God preserved Jonah in the belly of a big fish for His purpose. You, like so many that seek but do not find or want their ears tickled, try to put God into your own little box. There's God; look. See.

God cannot be defined by man. Man trying to define God is like a painting trying to define the painter that painted it.

Trying to judge or discern the Word of God through the use of the word of man is as fruitless and futile as man trying to define God. The work of man when it comes to God should be judged by the Bible. If the work of man is not consistent with the Bible, then it is the work of man that is false, not the other way around.

As usual JPC, you got it backwards.

PsyOps is not attacking the messenger but the message. You tell lies and proclaim them as truth and when someone quotes Bible scripture to refute your position, you contend that it is the Word of God that is incorrect.

Why do I take the Bible over modern works of man? Because the Bible is divinely inspired and the works of man are not. Man, especially modern man, has been trying to prove there is no God for a long time. Why? Because if there is no God there are no consequences and man can do whatever he pleases without any regard to judgment.

The Nicolaitans were in the early church and made a mockery of salvation proclaiming that they could do whatever they wanted because they were saved anyway. They turned salvation into licentiousness. The Bible warns against them and their beliefs.
Revelation 2:12-17

. 12"And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: The One who has the sharp two-edged sword says this:

13'I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is; and you hold fast My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

14'But I have a few things against you, because you have there some who hold the teaching of Balaam, who kept teaching Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols and to commit acts of immorality.

15'So you also have some who in the same way hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans.

16'Therefore repent; or else I am coming to you quickly, and I will make war against them with the sword of My mouth.

17'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches To him who overcomes, to him I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and a new name written on the stone which no one knows but he who receives it.'
Seems to me that you proclaim satan's lie that everyone gets saved so you can do whatever you want. That would make you a modern Nicolaitan.

JPC I dont mean to be mean, but there isnt a synoptic gospel problem, if you study the word, it vaildates itself. Its amazing, mans not clever enough to produce anything like it or disprove it.
1 Corinthians1-18
The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19
For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the learning of the learned I will set aside."
20
Where is the wise one? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made the wisdom of the world foolish?

If you find the message of the cross offensive please examine your heart, is your pride or bitterness keeping you from bending the knee?

Maybe your just not ready maybe you never will be to recieve Gods grace but if you ever change your mind though I be happy to talk with you one on one. I know alot of people are praying for you!
Are you really willing to trust in your own ideas, your own image of God, the idol that you created in your own mind to comfort yourself? When it comes to eternity?

I do not do that to you or to anyone else and I can not accept that such deductions could ever be correct.

I study psychology (study of the mind) and we know very much of what people think but we can not read the mind of others.

My own thinking is far more based on my religion than on my experiences.

The term "Christ" is not Jesus' last name and it is not his second name.

I am sure you mean some thing more specific but when one does not ask specifically then I do not volunteer it unless it suits me.

The question is very complicated to one such as myself because the words have different meanings then accepted Orthodoxy.

Like the person of Jesus' real name was "Yesu" (short version of Yeshua) which also means : "Yahweh saves" in the Hebrew language.

Trying to judge or discern the Word of God through the use of the word of man is as fruitless and futile as man trying to define God. The work of man when it comes to God should be judged by the Bible. If the work of man is not consistent with the Bible, then it is the work of man that is false, not the other way around.
:whistle: The work of mankind and the words of mankind is all we really have and all else is faith.

Jesus came as a man to demonstrate the value of mankind.

The Bible is published by people and the english language is man-made and so is the Greek language, the aramaic and Hebrew are all the words and works of people.

2A and Christians try to claim that we people are too insignificant for the job of understanding God but that is so very far from correct or true.

The Creator God is our Father in Heaven and all scripture is for mankind to disect and to dig for the truth because we are the children of God and it is our birth right to judge God and his word by what is right and wrong.

God gave us a brain and expects us to use it and not to accept nor pretend to be ignorant sheep.

Parts of the Bible are false and untrue and the other parts are the scripture.:yahoo:

You must remember that when Christ spoke many people degraded Him as only the son of a carpenter, Mark 6:2-4 link HERE.

We must not do that mistake today of claiming some one is superior and others unqualified to talk with God.

When you read the Bible then it is God with His daughter so I can not see that which you His daughter can until you tell me and first you must go there.

I would prefer your perspective over that of a long dead preacher, but I still consider the long dead preachers too.
Marie said:

:howdy: Yes, indeed I am willing to trust myself and my personal relationship with God.

A personal relationship really means the one-on-one and not a group relationship.

If you do not trust your own self, and your own "personal" Marie-to-God relationship then you are lost.

Be saved on Judgement Day like everyone else but lost for now in the present.

Other people can tell us what the scriptures mean but we must personally decide if we believe that or not.:popcorn:

The fact you couldn’t give just a simple answer, but you had to try to cover nearly all grounds to make your answer as right as it could be tells me you don’t really know who He (Jesus) is. I don’t think the question is all that complicated. Jesus, the Christ, is our savior from our sins.

John 3:16 - 18

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.​

Saying simply that he is the Christ or the Annointed One doesn't say anything.

We must not do that mistake today of claiming some one is superior and others unqualified to talk with God.

When you read the Bible then it is God with His daughter so I can not see that which you His daughter can until you tell me and first you must go there.

I would prefer your perspective over that of a long dead preacher, but I still consider the long dead preachers too.:howdy: Yes, indeed I am willing to trust myself and my personal relationship with God.

A personal relationship really means the one-on-one and not a group relationship.

If you do not trust your own self, and your own "personal" Marie-to-God relationship then you are lost.

Be saved on Judgement Day like everyone else but lost for now in the present.

Other people can tell us what the scriptures mean but we must personally decide if we believe that or not.:popcorn:
