Communism Has Been an Imitation of Christian History

The Evangelists thought they would soon be rulers if they presented false testimony that would awe and intimidate people.'

This is not contradicted by their actual fate, proves that they were babbling power-freaks is evidenced by those who followed them centuries later, when the time was ripe for escapism and absolute obedience.

Yes, socialism/communism has appropriated certain aspects of Christianity. No doubt about that. Every argument/policy/position of the left is about man's earthly happiness which are based upon moral arguments. Which is one of the key reasons socialism/communism is like a religion. Their adherents are even adversarial towards Christians because Christianity is a rival religion to socialism/communism and that's what rival religions do; they attack each other.

That depends. Are they being true to the whole bible or cherry picking verses?

When the Christians need to make up new meanings for the stories that don't work, we have made progress.

This is a long way from believing in the 'big flood' and Noah's ark, etc., that were accepted as true just 50 years ago.

And of course we know now that the Catholic church has accommodated the flock members who just couldn't believe the nonsense by telling them they were allowed to believe whatever the hell they like.

Become a catholic and you can hump your sister/brother and still not be sent to the Firelake! Believe what you want, it's all good with that church.

In any event, the priests are too busy with altar boys to even notice!

It is noteworthy that the Book of Judas references the book of Enoch, yet Enoch was left out of the Canonized Bible.

What does the fact that Jude (vs 14-15) used 1 Enoch say about it being an inspired book? – Evidence for Christianity

evidenceforchristianity.org

In fact, the early church used the Book of Enoch to a great degree, mainly because it was written pre-Christ, but has the most startling prophesies about Christ being the Son of God pre New Testament.

Yet they kept it out.

God made sure you have access to enough knowledge to be saved. Start there and worry about the other after you've taken the steps to eternal life

Are you seeing a discrepancy?

This wasnt advice for NATIONS but for the poor Christians in Jerusalem. They were FAMILY (spiritually) and the best way to survive in this tiny persecuted group was to share.

Western civilization was tyranny? Maybe to a filthy anarchist. Are you a filthy anarchist?

Is the Bible perfect in every way? This is a question that plagues many. If it is not perfect in every way, then how can it be trusted for anything? But then, we put our trust in imperfect human beings every day, people we know who are fallible. In fact, the Bible was written by those imperfect people. So, it seems odd to me that man would be perfect ONLY when it comes to relaying the scriptures.

For example, the gospels have disparities between them.

Matthew 27:5 "Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself

Acts 1:18 "Now this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and falling headlong he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out"

Are the two reconcilable? What you have in the gospels are eyewitness accounts, like you would in a court of law that is used as evidence. You would never expect all the eyewitness accounts to match perfectly, unless they colluded with themselves before hand, which would then discredit their testimony. But their testimony collectively should have a common theme of truth, which would be used as evidence in a court of law. The entire reason they were written was to relay who Jesus of Nazareth was and his mission from God to mankind. That is the common truth they all agree with.

I think Christians fail to realize this when insisting that every word in the Bible is perfect. That is why you have multiple authors, not just one, who don't use the other to write their stories. That is why there is 4 gospels and not just one to tell the world about the man named Jesus. THey were not copying the other books to make them all line up perfectly. Instead, they are simply relaying their experiences. I view this a more powerful tool of evidence using this perspective than to convince people that broken sinful people, like Peter who denied Jesus 3 times himself, were perfect when they relayed the gospels to us.

No where does the Bible claim to be perfect; it only claims to be God inspired who is perfect. And there is no getting around it being God inspired from my view. There are simply too many truths that mankind should not know about when they were written to conclude anything other than the scriptures being God inspired truth.

If God wanted the Bible to be perfect, he would have had Jesus, who is the only person in the Bible that has claim to perfection, to have written it. Instead, God relied on fallible man to do it.

That is all.
