Preface: The
great majority of Christian lay members today do not understand their
own Bible: |
|
Introductions to 2nd. Edition:
A number of changes have been
added to this, the second edition of The Amazing Deception.
|
|
The Setting: God was so proud of Phinehas He gave him and his offspring an everlasting covenant of peace and
a perpetual priesthood.
|
|
The Essenes & the Dead Sea Scrolls: The events depicting the life of Jesus in the gospels are
fabricated history.
|
|
The New Testament Authenticity: Any New Testament study would be useless without
first understanding to what extent the Biblical scriptures have been
perverted.
|
|
The Story of Jesus - Fact or Fiction:
The story of Jesus can best be found in what he taught… not what
Christians claim he taught.
|
|
Jesus & the Essenes: Most if not all of the parables spoken by Jesus were pure
Essene.
|
|
The Verdict & Resurrection: The strongest evidence that Jesus was an insurrectionist is the fact
that he was crucified as one.
|
|
Paul-The Man:
A number of theologians have declared that he
was one of the great figures in Greek literature. |
|
Paul's Missionary Journeys:
According to the chronology in the book of Acts
Paul made three missionary journeys throughout Asia and Macedonia. |
|
Teachings of Paul:
Most Christians today ignores the obvious fact that Paul and
the Apostles differed on almost all their doctrines.
|
|
The Silent Years of Christiantiy: What
transpired in those missing years (70-130 CE) is unknown to everyone…
except the Church.
|
|
The Gnostics,
Apologists & Early Writings: The most amazing
characteristic of these apologists is the fact that, with the exception
of Justin Martyr, none introduces an historical Jesus into their
defenses of Christianity to the pagans.
|
|
The New Testament Canonization: The
first recorded member of the Church to attempt such a compilation was
Eusebius in 340 CE.
|
|
The
Character of the Church: During the 11th century the
Church so divided it could not find a suitable leader even with the
intervention of secular authority. |
|
Light unto the World: "scarce one person in a thousand of the population of Christendom
except priests, could read or write his own name."
