IF YOU READ YOUR BIBLE WELL, THEN YOU MUST KNOW THESE
The Bible is made up of the Old and New Testaments, and is the canon of the
three branches of Christianity: Roman Catholic, Greek and other orthodox sects,
and the Protestant groups. Judaism and Islam put premium on the
Old Testament, which came from a wide range of ancient manuscripts
written in archaic Hebrew, Aramaic, and Chaldean languages, with their
problems of modern interpretations.
Some of the books misquoted, distorted or misinterpreted to assemble the Bible
included: The Book of the Dead, (African) which the British Museum gave their
own title of (The Book of the Coming Forth by Day and Night), in 1895. The Book of the
Divines (African); the Book of Judgment (African); the Heart of Judgment and
such other works. Also included in the list of documents, of course, was the
Jewish Old Testament.
Two of the most important documents the Church fathers distorted and suppressed
while putting the Christian religion together namely: The Coptic Scrolls and
The Dead Sea Scrolls,eventually surfaced in their original forms from their hiding places.
The Coptic Scrolls, sometimes called the Nag Hammadi, were found at Nag
Hammadi in 1945, while The Dead Sea Scrolls (supposed to have been produced
around the 9th or 10th century CE), were dug out of a cave near Qumran in the
Judaean desert in the 1950s.
The Scrolls incorporate ideas from very ancient Pagan times in Egypt, and The
Dead Sea Scrolls include Isaiah´s materials dating back to the second century
BCE. These were all doctored while being translated into European languages. For
instance, the Jews while translating the Hebrew religion into Greek
text fraudulently spelt one of their deities or idols, with the capital
letter ´G´ for ´God´ while spelling the idols of other nations with the
small letter ´g´ for ´god.´ Seventy Jewish scholars gathered in Alexandra,
Egypt, around 200 BCE to perpetrate the fraud.
They found that although Judaism was preaching monotheism, they were in
reality serving several deities or gods of the Canaanites.
The leader of the Canaanites´ deities was El (or El Elyon) whose subordinates
or sons where spelt with small letters as in: el, eloah and elohiym. None of
these deities, not even El, was considered the Supreme or Universal Being. They
were all deities with El as their superior or Father or the only God that could
be spelt with the capital letter ´G.´ These deities were actually super human beings who had at one time or the
other lived on earth and were now ancestors who took charge of several
individual nations. El Elyon (Black, Father or God of all gods),
allocated the nations of the world to the deities.
The Jewish scholars doctored the Hebrew translation to Greek text, to promote
Yahweh, the deity allocated to Israel, and sold Yahweh as the Supreme God of
the universe, to enable them claim that they were the chosen people. They
spelt their own deity as ´God´ with the capital letter ´G´ and the
´Gods´ of other nations with the small letter ´g.´ So, the
Jewish God became Theou in Greek, and anywhere the Jewish deity, Yahweh
occurred, it was translated as ´God´ instead of god which they used for the
deities of other nations.
El or El Elyon was the chief of all Canaanite gods referred to as God or God
Most High (or Most High). El was supposed to be The Most High God in Genesis
14:18 (whose priest was Melchizedeck) , but that status was fraudulently given
to Yahweh ´God´ of Israel, as was done in the Most High in Deuteronomy 32:8 and the God
in Psalm 82:6, which should refer appropriately to the Canaan God El Elyon. As
a result, every where Yahweh is mentioned in the Bible became God said, God
did, God told Moses, (Exodus 3:14). The correct translation is that Yahweh, a deity or idol of the Jews, (like the Sango of the Africans), told Moses. In the same vain, they
translated el Philistine as the god of the Philistine and el Israel as
the God of Israel. The end product of their fraudulent
distortion is the Septuagint (LXX), the first Hebrew religious text in
Greek, which the Church incorporated into the Bible as the Old
Testament. Most of the Old Testament is allegorical, written in historical form
and accepted by orthodox
Christianity as the gospel truth.: Christians say their God (Yahweh) is good
Living is sheer hell and mankind has endless suffering and disasters to show
for it. Famine, earthquakes, floods, plane crashes, civil wars are the daily
menu of existence. Men constantly kill and maim each other to gain turfs and
advantages. Big powers march into weaker countries to sack governments and
usurp their resources even in the name of religions. The harder we pray the
more pains we seem to suffer. We cannot walk the streets without minding our
backs. Survival pangs are daily chores riddled with fear of sudden death.
Obviously, a diabolical force is in control of the world.
Organized religions claim that God is good. That He created everything but that
Satan brought evil to mankind. Man´s dilemma since creation has been to unravel
where Satan came from if God created everything good. Adam and Eve couldn´t
have created evil since
they were part and parcel of the perfect creation of God. If
Satan brought evil, and God created everything and God´s original
creation was perfect, then no aspect of it could have created evil. Isaiah 44:
24, Eccle. 11: 5, John 1: 3, Eph. 3: 9, Rev. 4: 11 say God must have created
everything.
The Bible insists, God created everything and if He did, then He created evil
or evil does not exist. But we all know that evil exists so if God did not
create it, He did not create everything and what He did not create seems to
control our world. Satan overwhelms God in our world but religionists insist
that God cannot be overwhelmed and that He created everything. What they are
saying without admitting it is that God is Satan. Actually the Holy books are
not ambiguous about who God is. It is the preachers and Imams that paint
confusing pictures of Him to look pious. Men of God create the differentiation
between God and Satan to whip man into submission for exploitation.
The Holy Bible describes the Christian God as Satan
God the perfect being, did all of the following: He created evil (Lam. 3: 38,
Jer. 26: 3, Ezek. 20: 25 – 26, Judges 9: 3, 1, Sam. 16: 23, 18: 10); He
deceived (Jer. 4: 10, 15: 18, 20: 7, 2, Chron 18: 22, Ezek. 14: 9, 2Thess. 2: 9
– 12); He told people to lie (Ex. 3: 18, 1Sam. 16: 2); He lied (Gen. 2: 17,
2Sam. 7: 13); He rewarded liars (Ex. 1: 15 – 20); He ordered men to become
drunken (Jer. 25: 27); He rewarded the fool and the transgressor (Prov. 26:
10); He mingled a perverse spirit (Isa. 19: 14); He spread dung on people´s
faces (Mal.2: 3); He ordered stealing (Ezek. 39: 10, Ex 3: 22); He made false
prophesies (Jonah 3: 4, Gen. 5: 10); He changed his mind (Jonah 3: 10); He caused
adultery (2 Sam. 12: 11 – 12); He ordered the taking of a harlot (Hosea 1: 2,
3:1 – 2);
He killed (Num. 16: 35, 21: 6, Deut. 32: 39, 1Sam. 2: 26, Psalm 135: 10); He
ordered killing (Lev. 26: 7 – 8, Num. 25: 4 – 5); He had a temper (Deut. 13:
17, Judges 3: 8); He was often jealous (Deut. 5: 9,6: 15); He wasn´t
omnipresent (Gen. 4: 16, 11: 5, 1Kings 19: 11 – 12); He wasn´t omniscient
(Deut. 8: 2, 13: 3, 2Chron. 32: 31); He often repented ( Ex. 4: 22 – 23, Joshua
22: 20, Rom. 5: 12); He played favourites ( Deut. 7: 6, 14: 2, 1Sam. 12: 22);
He sanctioned slavery ( Ex. 21: 20 – 21, Deut. 15: 17); He degraded deformed
people (Lev. 21: 16 – 23).
He punished a bastard for being illegitimate (Deut. 23: 2); He punished many
for the acts of one (Gen. 3: 16, 20: 18); He punished children for the sins of
their fathers (Ex. 12: 29, 20: 5, Deut. 5: 9); He prevented people from hearing
his word (Isa. 6: 10, John 12: 39 – 40). He supported human sacrifice (Ex. 22:
29 – 30, Ezek. 20: 26); He ordered cannibalism (Lev. 26: 29, Jer. 19: 9); He

He intentionally issued bad laws (Ezek. 20: 25); He excused the sins of

his protection (Gen. 4: 8 – 15); He killed a man who refused to impregnate his
widowed sister-in-law (Gen. 38: 9 – 10); and He is indecisive ( Gen. 18: 17).
The Christians say their God does not repent
Num. 23: 19 God is not a man, that he should lie: neither the son of man, that
he should repent. 1 Sam.15: 29 And also the strength of Israel will not lie nor
repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.
Contradictions: Jonah 3: 10 and God saw their works, that they turned from
their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do
unto them; and
he did it not. 1 Sam.15: 11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king.
Exod.32: 14 And the Lord repented of the evil, which he thought to do unto his
people. Psalms 42: 10 For I repent me of the evil that I have done unto you.
Whao! God admits to have done evil? Gen. 6: 6 and it repented the Lord that he
had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 1Sam. 15: 35 and
the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
Christians say no one has seen the face of their God
John 1: 18 No man hath seen God at anytime. John 6: 46 Not that any man hath
seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. 1 John 4: 12
No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us,
and his love is perfected in us.
Contradictions: Gen. 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I
have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. Exod. 33:11 and the Lord
spake unto Moses face to face as a man speaketh unto his friend. Num. 14: 14
….that thou Lord art seen face to face….Job 42: 5 I have heard of thee by the
hearing of the ear; but now mine eye seeth thee. Deut. 34: 10 and there arose
not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, who the Lord knew face to face.
Deut. 5: 4 The Lord talked with you face to face…(also Psalm 63: 2, Isa. 6: 1
and 6: 5, Amos 7: 7- 8, Ezek.20: 35, Ex. 24: 9-10). God was not only seen,
Jacob wrestled with God and nearly defeated God until God managed to wrench
Jacob´s hip. (Gen. 32:21). What a God?
Moses saw Yahweh´s back because Yahweh covered Moses´ face with his hand while
passing. “I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by, then I will
take away my hand and you shall see my back; but my face shall not be seen,“
(Exodus 33: 22-23.) But Moses had seen Yahweh´s face
earlier on in (Exodus 33: 11) ….And the Lord spake unto Moses face to
face as a man speaketh unto his friend. The Lord came to visit Abraham
and ate in his house. Isaiah saw the Lord in his temple. Gideon,
Ezekiel, Samson´s parents, Daniel, all saw the Lord. Yahweh wrestled
with Jacob (Gen. 32: 21) and Jacob nearly defeated him until he managed
to remove a bone to wrench Jacob´s hip. Some God?
The Christian God made false promises
Jacob never received the Promised Land, and it is questionable whether the spot
on which he lay ever came into the possession of his descendants. Genesis 35:
10
And God said unto him Thy name is Jacob; thy name shall not be called
any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and he called his name
Israel. Then 11 chapters later: Gen. 4: 2 and God spake unto Israel in the
visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.
Deuteronomy 23: 3An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation
of the Lord; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the
congregation of the Lord forever. Ruth, a Moabitess, not only entered the
congregation of the Lord as Ruth 1: 4, 1: 22, 1: 13, 4: 17 show, but gave birth
to the ancestors of David and Jesus.
That is the perfect God of the Holy Bible. What criminal, what villian, in all
history had a record to match?
Ingersoll´s Works in (Some Mistakes of Moses) says: “a false friend, an unjust
judge, a braggart, a hypocrite, and tyrant, sincere in hatred, jealous, vain
and revengeful, false in
promise, honest in curse, suspicious, ignorant, infamous and hideous – such is
the God of the Pentateuch.
Thomas Paine in (The Age of Reason) says: “All our ideas of the justice and
goodness of God revolt at the impious cruelty of the Bible. It is not God, just
and good, but a devil, under the name of God, that the Bible describes. Thomas
Paine in (The life and Works of): “A book so full of contradictions and
wickedness could not be the Word of God and …we dishonour God by ascribing it
to him.”
History of humankind is over 13 million years old but the first Bible was published
in 1514 CE and the first English version was in 1535 CE. That is barely
500 years ago and yet Church fathers pretend that the Bible dropped
from heaven at the beginning of history. The Bible has been revised so
many times with every new edition significantly different in ideas from
previous ones. The Bible was reviewed as the Geneva Bible in 1560 CE
and the King James I version was in 1611 and revised in 1885. None
is quite the same as the original it is replacing or the recent
revisions in 1970 and 1995, all in an attempt to continue to advance
Christian hegemony in the world. And now that gay and
homosexual priests are being ordained, the next Bible revision may take
account of the new trend by justifying it with claims of approval from
´God.´
The Bible apart from being deceitful and mostly devoid of logic and
commonsense, is also grossly racially skewed and its White Son of God for all
of mankind, without
emphasizing that it is mythical, is the anti-Christ. There
is so much evil and suffering in the world because the religion of the
dominant civilization is built on monumental falsehood. We are praying to no
avail because the spirit world abhors deceit.
