[SIZE=3]I just finished reading a post about the so called Essene, and in the post there was a reply about things not lining up with the Scripture. Of course I wouldn't call names cause that's not actually polite. So let me state this to be another fact.
In 1720 there were at least 20,000 errors found in the Bible. By 1952 Look Magazine ran a story whereby 50,000 errors were found in the Bible. This is quite amazing in itself ! I wouldn't care if it was only 1,000 errors. The truth of the matter is that the Scriptures DON'T EVEN LINE UP WITH ITSELF ! IT DOES NOT MATTER IF IT'S QU'RAN OR BIBLE.
We can call it human error, we can call it misprint, misinterpretation or anything else we want to. The books are in error and we live our lives by them which makes us in error with the books.
I used to believe in Jesus too and that the Bible was God's Word. Suddenly I see in Isaiah 43:11 " I am the Lord, and beside me there is no saviour".
Then I see in Isaiah 45:22 " Look unto me and be ye saved, all the end of the earth ! For I am God, and there is none else".
Suddenly I see in Mark 10:18 the very words of the one who was my fake saviour telling me: " Why callest thou me good, there is none good but one, that is God."
Common sense told me right then that Jesus wasn't the one. If Jesus was worshipping God, then that's who I was supposed to worship. If Jesus called out God's name, then that's whose name I'm supposed to call out. If jesus admitted to me "HE WAS NOT GOOD", THEN THAT PLACED HIM IN THE SAME BOAT AS ME. HE WAS NOT PERFECT AND NEITHER AM I. THEREFORE WITH JESUS NOT BEING GOOD OR PERFECT, HE WAS NOT THE ONE I SHOULD BE FOLLOWING.
So, the bottom line is that the pot can't call the kettle black and the imperfect can not continue to follow the imperfect. Those who admit that they are not good can not lead those who strive to be good. Am I making any sense here? Maybe too much !!
More to come !![/SIZE]
