| Biblical
absurdities: the second epistle
of Paul the Apostle to Timothy
By
Chris Brown
"All
Scripture is given by inspiration of God."
Is there any Christian who would dare dispute those
words? Is there any Christian who would not declare
that those words are the absolute truth? The most absolutely
truthful words known to man?
Doctor William James so aptly stated an axiom I shall
use here. It is in fact the entire basis of my work.
"To disprove the law that all crows are black,
one needs only to find one white crow."
When someone makes an absolute statement, disproving
it only requires one exception. This changes the words
all, only, never, totally, absolute, et al, to mostly
or some or a few or some times or what ever.
The statement has been made and repeated from every
pulpit in the Christian world that the Bible is "The
word of God." That the Bible was inspired by God
and contains His holy truth. You have been told that
the entire Bible is God's truth.
I contend that uneducated men wrote the Bible with little
or no input from God. And what God did supply, men later
changed to suit their own purposes. An example being
the changing of the Ten Commandments to allow statues
in the churches and in one particular basilica. If you
believe God is wiser than uneducated men then I only
need to find one instance of the stupidity or contradictory
nature of the Bible. In other words, one white crow.
Remember, it is not important that I show you God was
not involved in the writing of the Bible. It is important
that the Bible shows you God was not involved in the
writing of the Bible. If this upsets you, burn the Bible,
not me. It's the Bible that will prove its own falsity.
I'm just showing you the way.
Ask yourself why it took so long for this to be written.
1,400 years? Actually it was written before but the
church was in power then and had the authors burned
at the stake. The church was not about to lose its power
over the people. Later, after the church lost its power
of life and death over the people, it was written again
but for some reason was not widely published. Possibly
by residual fear of the church. Today they cannot have
me burned at the stake but I'm sure they will scream
and protest loudly.
By the way, if you had said I don't know what I am talking
about, I would have agreed with you. I didn't write
this book. I just provided the "pecking fingers."
Actually I did write parts of it but both angels edited
and corrected it. I literally had to go back and read
what was written. I wasn't sure of the subject sometimes,
much less the details. How is this possible? I have
learned to listen. God speaks to all of us but most
of us are too wrapped up in our own rat race to quiet
down enough to hear Him. Please quiet down and listen.
He is a wondrous God to listen to. He also has a good
sense of humor. He created it, or should I say, "He
is it"?
My purpose in all this? God exists; God exists, as the
ultimate expression of love for God is the ultimate
expression of love because God is love. God is perfect
in every way but to understand this, one must understand
perfection. This is quite more difficult than you may
believe. For no two men will totally agree on the definition
of perfection. To begin to understand any of this and
whatever follows, one must rid one's self of garbage
and excess baggage. As long as you have a warped thought
of God, you would never understand the truth of her.
The God of the bible is as contradictory as a wife's
opinion on where her furniture and pictures should be
placed. God is not contradictory. God is love and love
alone. This is the only absolute statement I will ever
make in this or any other column or conversation.
God is love perfected.
If God is love and the Bible is God's word, why does
"kill" and "war" and all their variations
appear 1,483 times and "love" and "peace"
and their variations appear 837 times?
Later I will reveal the author of five books that most
beautifully explain who and what God is. My purpose
here is to explain who and what God is not. Clean the
slate of off colored chalk; wash it down to a totally
clean and blank slate. Then let God write the truth
for you to learn and love.
Are you aware there are more than 46 versions of the
"True Bible?" They all agree and disagree
on many things. The number one thing they all agree
on is the "fact" that each of the 46 versions
is the true "word of God;" the other 45 are
mistranslations. At time of printing, I am still finding
more versions.
How would you like to learn that your employer has more
than 46 different versions of their company policies?
Another concept you may find interesting is the following
play of the illogic.
"The Bible is the true word of God."
"Can you prove that?"
"Certainly, Read the Bible, it says so!"
This is called circular logic.
This paragraph is the absolute truth.
I, Chris Brown, am the most brilliant man on earth.
Want me to prove it?
I just did, didn't you read it?
And around and around it goes.
If you wonder how such illogical stories were permitted,
here's a more recent item to ponder.
The Catholic Church announced the "Age of Miracles
is over" and then later and even now is making
saints of those who produced miracles.
God is perfection personified. If it is in error, it
is not God's doing.
