WHILE THE NOVEL IS FICTION, THE THEME OF THE STORY IS TRULY MY BELIEF.
This page is dedicated to this novel ONLY. You can find my other two novels on page two. All three novels are available as an eBook and paperback om Amazon.
This page will surprise Christians, and challenged them at the same time, with the information I uncovered in the Bible.
MY BELIEF IS THAT GOD IS OUR CREATOR AND JESUS IS HIS ONLY SON! If this isn't enough to respect my biblical opinions, then you ARE TRULY indoctrinated.
I'M GOING TO BEGIN WITH MY BIGGEST DISBELIEF IN THE NEW TESTAMENT.
And that disbelief is the writings of Paul (Saul).
For one, Paul DID NOT believe Jesus was the Messiah UNTIL he saw a light and heard a voice he claimed was Jesus while on on the road to Damascus AFTER the Resurrection. This according to Acts 9.
THE APOSTLE WAS HATEFUL AND SPITEFUL TOWARD JESUS AND THE APOSTLES.
IN ACTS 8:3 --- Saul made havoc of the church, entering every house and dragging off men and women who supported Jesus, committing them to prison.
IN ACTS 22:3-5 --- Then he said: “I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the strictness of our fathers’ law, and was zealous toward God as you all are today. I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women, 5 as also the high priest bears me witness, and all the council of the elders, from whom I also received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus to bring in chains even those who were there to Jerusalem to be punished.
ACTS 22:9-11 --- “Indeed, I myself thought I must do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth. This I also did in Jerusalem, and many of the saints I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I cast my vote against them. And I punished them often in every synagogue and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly enraged against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.
Paul makes a stark admission that he cannot control his sinful nature in Romans 7:14 --- For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.
PAUL WAS A SINNER NOTHING LESS HAN THE ANTI-SEMITES YOU FIND TODAY REPRESENTING HAMAS.
PAUL ALSO CONTRADICTS THE TEACHINGS OF JESUS:
Jesus regarding the Law: Matthew 5:17-20 -- Jesus did not come to destroy the law, but to fulfill it. In fact, Jesus preaches that the law remains until Heaven and Earth pass away. He even states that whoever teaches men to break the commandments shall be the least called to Heaven (Paul). Also, In Luke 16:17 -- Jesus also States it is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than one tittle of the law to fail.
Paul regarding the Law: In Romans 10:4 --- Paul states that Jesus is the end of the Law for righteousness to everyone who believes. In Colossians 2:13-14, Paul said Jesus had forgiven all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting (Law) of requirements, nailing those requirements to the cross. Romans 3:28 --- Paul says man is justified by faith APART from the deeds of the Law. Galatians 5:4 --- Paul says you, who attempt to be justified by Law, have fallen from grace and become estranged from Christ.
In Matthew 23:8-10 --- Jesus said call no one Rabbi, or teacher, that he is the only teacher. But in 2 Timothy 1-1, Paul calls himself an Apostle and 1:11 a teacher.
BUT JESUS NEVER APPOINTED PAUL AS AN APOSTLE. HE IS A SELF-PROCLAIMED APOSTLE.
PAUL CONTRADICTS BELOW:
John 10:27 --- Jesus stats His sheep hears His voice and follows Him.
1 Corinthians 4:16 --- Paul tells the Church to imitate him.
In Matthew 28:19, Jesus tells His Disciples to Baptize Nations while in 1 Corinthians 1:17 --- Paul states that Christ did not send him to Baptize.
Romans 10:9 --- Paul states that you will be saved if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and that God raised Him from the Dead.
Matthew 7:21 -- Jesus says that not everyone who calls out His name shall enter Heaven.
BUT LOOK HOW PAUL CONTRADICTS HIMSELF BELOW:
Hebrews 10:17 -- The Lord said: "Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more. But the remission of these sins there is no longer an offering for sin."
Hebrews 10:26 -- "For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins."
And Remember, Paul was a Pharisee, and Jesus didn't trust the Pharisees as stated in Matthew 23.
Matthew 22:14 --- Jesus says that many are called, but few are chosen, while Paul says in Romans 11:29 that the calling of God is irrevocable.
Matthew 10:8 -- Jesus tells His Apostles to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead and cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely you give.
BUT:
In 1 Corinthians 9:11 -- Paul states if he has sown spiritual things, it is great for him to reap material things.
Matthew 6:6-- Jesus teaches to pray in private. In 1 Timothy 2:8 --- Paul wants people to pray everywhere.
In Revelation 2:1-6 John is talking about Paul, the one who maintained that the Apostles were liars.
PAUL WAS UNDERMINING JESUS' TEACHINGS: Here, Paul believed he was the sole deliverer of Jesus' preaching, not the Apostles Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. This is evident in Roman's 2:16 where Paul references "his Gospel."
Knowing this about Paul, at least for me, it's no wonder Paul has 13 of the 27 New Testament Books. Also, the 27 books of the New Testament were hand-picked by the Emperor Constantine, who, himself, was a murderer, including killing his wife and son. Go figure, right?
Jesus DID NOT create Christianity. Nowhere in the New Testament does it say Jesus was creating a new religion, nor does it say He rejected Judaism or the Jewish community. NOWHERE! The Emperor Constantine started the Christian movement around 313 C.E.
Below are the four sins that I know will send people to HELL :
Someone who murders WITHOUT defending life or liberty, so the military and LEOs are excluded from punishment.
PEDOPHILES!
Stealing to gain wealth.
Bearing false witness that wrongly convicts someone.
I'm not sure about the other commandments. Since God is ALL KNOWING, He knew that much of His Creation wouldn't believe in Him. He knew that some people would have to work on the Sabbath to make a living. He knew people would put other gods before him. And some commandments are moral issues, like honoring your father and mother. Even adultery. Yet even Jesus forgave an adulteress in John 8.
BESIDES THE TOP FOUR SINS THAT WILL SEND YOU TO HELL, ASK FORGIVENESS FOR THE OTHER SINS, DO NOT REPEAT THOSE SINS, AND YOU SHALL SEE HEAVEN.
ISRAEL WAS GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE BIBLE!
AND JESUS' ONLY MISSION WAS TO PROVE HIS FATHER'S EXISTENCE.
AND OUR LORD ACCOMPLISHED THIS WITH HIS MIRACLES AND RESURRECTION!
THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BOOK OF REVELATION:
It is a series of visions by the Apostle John, nothing more than that. Revelation mentions that John was in the spirit or had a vision in Revelation 1:10, 4:2, 5:1, 6,1, 17:3 and 21:10.
I DO NOT SUPPORT THE BOOK OF REVELATION BECAUSE OF THE ABOVE NOTES WITH MORE REASONS LISTED BELOW.
According to Revelation, it's a fact that Jesus' return should have come 2,000 yrs ago. It states as much in Revelation.
Revelation 1:3: "For the time is near!"
Revelation 3:11: "Behold, I am coming quickly."
Revelation 22:7: "Behold, I am coming quickly."
Revelation 22:12: "And behold, I am coming quickly."
Revelation 22:20: "Surely, I am coming quickly."
AND JESUS CONFIRMS THIS IN OTHER AREAS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT:
Matthew 24:34 -- "Assuredly, this generation (underline "this generation") will not pass away till all these things take place." Matthew 16:28 -- Assuredly, there are some standing here who shall not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.
Matthew 10:23 -- For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
Hebrews 1:1-2 -- God spoke in various ways to the fathers of the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us through His Son. Underline LAST DAYS.
1 John 2:18 --- Little children, it is the LAST HOUR. As you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even many Antichrist have come, and we know it is the LAST HOUR.
Semantics hasn't changed since biblical times. So, quickly back then is is still quickly today. The same with soon and near. AND, the last hour IS the last hour.
LASTLY ABOUT REVELATION:
Why do Christians assume they will be saved during Jesus' return when Revelation SPECIFICALLY STATES that only the 12 tribes of Israel (144,000) will be redeemed from the earth in Revelation 7:4-8.
I'm quoting the above right from the Bible, not an interpretation. Ahh, but an Indoctrinated Christian WILL interpret this. That's what they do and why they are indoctrinated.
The 144,000 is mentioned again in Revelation 14:1 and 14:3. In Revelation 16:16, they gathered in Israel for Armageddon, a Hebrew word.
AND
THE GREAT TRIBULATION THAT JESUS TALKED ABOUT:
Wars-famines-plagues-earthquakes Before Jesus' return.
Number one example:
WW 1 1918 = 20 mil deaths
Spanish flu pandemic 1920 = 500 mil deaths
Armenian Genocide 1922 = 1.1 million deaths
Russia famine 1922 = 7 mil deaths
Japan earthquake 1923 = 120,000 deaths
WE'RE STILL HERE!
Number two example:
WW 2 1939/1945 = 56 mil deaths
Holocaust 1944 = 6.2 mil deaths.
Malaria 1945 = 2 mil deaths
USSR earthquake 1945 = 118,000 deaths
Indonesia famine in 1945 = 2.4 mil deaths
WE'RE STILL HERE!
Number 3 example:
Haiti/Japan earthquakes 2010/2011 = 176,000 deaths
Sudan Genocide 2015 = 207,000 deaths
Iraq and Syria Civil Wars 2010 -2012 = 544,000 deaths
Somalia famine 2011 = 288,000 deaths
WE'RE STILL HERE
Most Biblical Scholars ADMIT the Bible is nowhere near inerrant. Below are some examples.
Genesis 35:10 -- God changes Jacob's name to Israel, saying Jacob shall not be called Jacob anymore -- yet in Genesis 46:2, God calls for Jacob, not Israel.
2 Kings 2:11 --- Elijah went up to Heaven in a whirlwind.
John 3:13 --- No one has ascended to Heaven but He who came down from Heaven.
Revelation 8:7 -- Fire burned one third of the trees and grass.
Revelation 9:4, they were commanded not to harm any trees, grass or anything green.
In John 13:36, Peter says to Jesus: "Lord, where are you going."
In John 14:5, Thomas ask the Lord how will they know their way if they do not know where He is going.
In John 16:5, Jesus wants to know why no one asked Him where He was going.
Matthew 12:40 -- For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. Jesus was not in the tomb for 3 days and three nights. Crucified Friday afternoon, rose Sunday morning.
John Baptizes Jesus in Matthew 3:13. Yet in Matthew 11:2-3, John was in prison when he sent two of his disciples to ask Jesus if he was the Coming one, or should he look for another. John was sent to prison AFTER he Baptized Jesus AND HE KNEW JESUS.
Romans 10:13 -- "Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me Lord, Lord shall enter Heaven."
Jesus referencing His Father proves He is not God:
Matthew 10:32--- "Therefore, whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father in Heaven."
Matthew 11:27 --- "All things have been delivered to Me by My Father."
Matthew 18:19 --- "Again I say to you that if two of you agree on Earth concerning anything they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in Heaven."
Matthew 26:39 --- "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from ME, not as I will, but as your will.
John 14:28 --- "I am going to the Father, for My Father is greater than I."
John 17:25 --- "Righteous Father, the world has not known You, but I have known You." John 20:17 --- "Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to my Father."
There are also some unbelievable storylines in the Bible.
Like the talking serpent in Genesis 3, or the talking donkey in Numbers 22. Or the story of Samson in the Book of Judges, a character who gets his strength from his long hair. Then you have the two forbidden trees in the Garden. The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, and the Tree of Life. What if Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Life first? In this case, they would have achieved immorality. GAME OVER!
Would God be this careless? NEVER!
I SUBMIT THAT GOD IS GREATER THAN THE BIBLE STATES.
Another unbelievable storyline is in the Book of Job, where God allows Satan to torture the main character to prove his loyalty to God. REALLY? God would do such a thing? NO! And this isn't even to mention why Satan is in Heaven.
And the below Bible verses DOES NOT represent our good Lord:
Revelation 19:15 --- Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations.
Matthew 10:34 -- Do not think that I came to bring peace on Earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
Luke 14:26 -- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father, mother, wife and children, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple."
FACT: The biblical scribes honored their King and Pharaohs in the OT. FACT: And the the people honored the Pharisees/High Priest in the NT.
Remember, Scribes penned the Bible. Jeremiah didn't trust scribes and he was a trusted prophet. And Jesus didn't trust the scribes, either. Below are examples in the Bible. YES, THE BIBLE!
Jeremiah 8:8 -- "How can you say, "We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Look, the false pen of the scribe certainly works falsehood."
Jeremiah 11:9: "And the Lord said to me, “A conspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Matthew 5:20 -- For I say to you, unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes, you will not enter the kingdom of Heaven."
Matthew 23:1-5 “The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. Therefore whatever they tell you to observe, observe and do, but do not do according to their works; for they say and do not do. For they bind heavy burdens hard to bear and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers."
Mark 1:22 --- "And they were astonished at Jesus' teachings, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes."
OTHER NOTES BELOW TO PONDER:
God is Omniscient: Knowing everything.
All Christians believe this is true. But, how did God not know His Creation would be corrupt and thus flood the earth in Genesis 7? An All Loving God wouldn't do this. An All Powerful God could have made mankind disappear and start over.
Or that God didn't know His Creation would be intimate with the same gender, thus destroying Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19?
ALSO in Genesis 19, you'll find that Lot's two daughters had sex with him and became pregnant. But that was obviously okay since Lot's two daughters didn't receive any punishment. Sadly, though, God turned Lot's wife into a pillar of salt for looking back at the destruction of Sodom.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON LOT'S WIFE: Nowhere in the previous verses does the Bible state that anyone looking back at the destruction of Sodom would be destroyed, only that they would be destroyed if THEY DIDN'T reach the mountain in time.
REGARDING SEXUAL ABOMINATION:
Christians claim same gender sex is unnatural and thus an abomination. Okay. So, do you think God approves oral sex for either gender or a man performing anal sex on a woman? Or how about using a dildo or a vibrator? Never heard of this, huh? LIARS!!!!
ALSO, how did God not know His Creation was building a tower that would reach Heaven in Genesis 11?
How did God not know Abraham was a loyal servant in Genesis 22, thus testing Abraham with the sacrifice of his son?
And in the Book of Job, how did God not know where Satan was coming from in the first chapter of Job? As well, Christians believing God let Satan torture the main character is satanic in itself. GET HELP! My God didn't do that!
In Genesis 18, when Abraham was walking with God, how did God not know the number of righteous people in Sodom, particularly when Abraham kept lowering the number in order to save Sodom?
AND --- ACCORDING TO GENESIS 3:9, God didn't know where Adam was hiding in the Garden of Eden. Really? There's only two people on Earth and God can't find them? That's what the verse says. But indoctrinated Christians will interpret this by saying God was acting as a parent would to a child hiding. My question to them:
"And it says this where, exactly, in the Bible?"
Omnipotent: All Powerful
Yet Christians believe God could not help Judah drive out the inhabitants of the lowland in Judges 1:19 because they had chariots of iron. Yeah, right! You are all fools!
INDISPUTABLE FACT:
The Hebrew Bible was readily available during Jesus' era! What does this mean? It means that the New Testament authors and scribes had access to the prophecies in the Old Testament.
