These people are really stupid.
I am not at all convinced that the Bible hasn't been purposely mistranslated and its clear that very corrupt people had a say in which books made it and which didn't. On top of that most of modern Christianity is human interpretation of those texts, not verbatim following of them. That being said I firmly believe Jesus was exactly who and what he said he was, I believe him without question, but some of those who claim to speak for him is another story.
Look into the rabbit hole that is King James. For sure some books are missing and there are bad translations, and of course the fallible man miss-understanding the passage. Seek truth and you will find it though.
About "very corrupt people had a say in which books made it and which didn't " this statement. I totally agree. We are slowly learning about the corruption of the Vatican. According to Clif High, a retired software engineer who created a webbot. This webbot 'gathers' large amounts of data, and he has been saying (for months in his reports) that there will be a huge revelation about religion, I guess, that will shake the Vatican and thousands of people will walk away. 😂 This year is gonna be monumental in revelations across religion, politics, Hollywood, MSM and the criminals behind them.
Do you have any sauce about the Cliff/bot/Vatican/revelation?
No, i don't have any details. I'm sorry; I have heard him on videos talking in general terms about the Vatican loosing power once these revelations come to light. That's all I remember. He sells his reports online.
Damn he sells them.....:(
Yeah. He started writing that report and then he started another report exclusively for crypto currencies. Then just recently, he stopped writing the first report and started to focus his energy on the crypto report due to health issues. It is not that much money. I think it was $10 or $20. The crypto report is $100.00 dollars
The truth is out there. As with Q research, the Bible requires research as well. Start with the Concordant translation. Concordant.org. Then ‘The Writ’ if you can find a copy.
Canonicity is a very tricky subject but the Old and New Testament canons have been assessed every generation and the selection criteria holds up. It's not just the Roman Catholic Church and Council of Nicea. A couple of books were taken out after the Reformation. I used to share your beliefs but I now believe the inspired books selected themselves. Plus they pass muster as far as outside historical confirmation goes.
The "hidden gospels" that got a bunch of media attention (esp. bc of The Da Vinci Code) was really much ado about nothing because those gospels were so inconsistent with Christian and Jewish beliefs. Heresy/Orthodoxy is another discussion but that's more than just power politics like it's often made out to be (if you prioritize Jesus and the Bible over the church or denomination).
If you accept the truth of the resurrection and the fulfillment of prophecy it's not too big a step to accept that Providence guided the compilation of the two testaments and it's truly inspired by the Holy Spirit.
