Any book of Scripture that commands, justifies, or excuses
one person killing another person
in the name of religion, or country, or justice-
such a book does not come from GOD...
it is written purely by men
Any book of Scripture that presents GOD
as an angry god, a wrathful god, a vengeful god, a jealous god;
that book was not authored by your Heavenly Father...
it came strictly from men
Any book of Scripture that demeans and humiliates women;
that puts forth the idea that women are nothing
but the serving vessels of men-
such a book does not come from God…
it was written by men for men
Any book of Scripture that promotes the doctrine, …the belief…
in hell fire and brimstone and final judgment;
does not come from GOD…it comes from men
Wisdom 12:15-17
Thus would such men as these fashion GOD like unto themselves,
that he might not rise above their own image and likeness,
being small and filled with pettiness
That even as they are filled with anger,
so then is the god of their understanding made angry also;
as they are filled with hate and loathing,
so have they fashioned god;
as they are made subject unto wrath and vengeance,
so have they made subject unto like passions
the god of their own understanding
Why then will you be made to fear such a god as this,
who by vain passions is made no greater than the least of you?
Will you love him for the sake of fear only?
Wisdom 12:55
Guard yourselves therefore,
against the righteousness of churchgoers;
for by word and deed would they hope to make you
subject unto certain men of authority,
that they might hedge up the way against you,
that you might be encompassed round about
with doctrines and creeds of men
Wisdom 12:56,57
Watch, therefore and beware:
For in the beginning
did the teachers and preachers of the church
seize the keys of deep knowledge
and with great cunning did they hide them
beneath the robes of their authority,
securing them against you for the sake of their traditions
I tell you truly, they shall not enter into the kingdom of God,
neither would they permit that you should enter either
Wisdom 12:24-27
By such contrivance
would the teachers and preachers of religion
separate you from the love of God;
that being made fearful,
they might hedge up the way against you
lest you should by some means find again the Father and live
Thus would they make Christ
unlike the natural man, being perfect;
that by his death all people
might stand condemned before the cross,
being made worthy of all reproach
Whosoever has ears to hear, let them hear;
for I tell you truly that the love of God manifest itself
not in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ
as these men would have you suppose,
but rather in those things
which Yeshua desired to teach unto the children of men
That by the exercise of a goodly faith unto good works,
they might draw nigh again unto the Father of their soul,
being made holy even as he is holy
Another thought to ponder for many hours:
Did Yeshua make us a way back to the Father
BECAUSE HE WAS KILLED?
or
Was Yeshua killed
BECAUSE HE MADE US A WAY BACK TO THE FATHER
