If the Christ was proclaiming that the Anti-Christ "was already in the world", then what would the bible have to do with him, seeing that at the
time, there was no bible only the torah?
Yet, even the torah was not a printed document at the time, so the only understanding that would have been had at the time would have been the
Rabbi's reading of it in Synogog. This was not a document open to everyone. It was in the form of a scroll and kept under watchful eye like that of a
prized jewel. This was not something you could check out and return. It was all hand written and passed down for the life of the document and kept by
the Chief Priests.
Gods words are spirit, and those with ears to hear...hear them. What you are referring too is a doctrine of man, the bible. Seeing as how all of these
things will burn and how God is not concerned with what men have printed I would begin seeking God and praying for him to "Prick" your ears.
Do you not think that Satan has looked over the bible, being he is a lawyer and a very strict adherent of the law? Do you not see that Satan is "the
adversary", the one seeking to catch you with the word written so that he may be justified in his arrogance and disregard for order and that He
obtain the title that belongs to God only "the creator"?
Gen 4:3 And it cometh to pass at the end of days that Cain bringeth from the fruit of the ground a present (the bible) to Jehovah;
Gen 4:4 and Abel, he hath brought, he also, from the female firstlings of his flock, even from their fat ones; and Jehovah looketh unto Abel and unto
his present,
Gen 4:5 and unto Cain and unto his present He hath not looked; and it is very displeasing to Cain, and his countenance is fallen.
Gen 4:6 And Jehovah saith unto Cain, `Why hast thou displeasure? and why hath thy countenance fallen?
Gen 4:7 Is there not, if thou dost well, acceptance? and if thou dost not well, at the opening a sin-offering is crouching, and unto thee its
desire, and thou rulest over it.'
Gen 4:13 And Cain saith unto Jehovah, `Greater is my punishment than to be borne;
Gen 4:14 lo, Thou hast driven me to-day from off the face of the ground, and from Thy face I am hid; and I have been a wanderer, even a trembling
one, in the earth, and it hath been--every one finding me doth slay me.'
Gen 4:15 And Jehovah saith to him, `Therefore--of any slayer of Cain sevenfold it is required;' and Jehovah setteth to Cain a token that none
finding him doth slay him.
Mar 14:34 And He said to them, My soul is deeply grieved, unto death. Remain here and watch.
Mar 14:35 And going forward a little, He fell on the ground and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him.
Mar 14:36 And He said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to You; take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.
This is the plea of a man who of his own will did not want to die for you or anybody...He wanted to live. What he did, was to finally be obedient
after being given charge to from the beginning when he was sent out. He learned that he truly is "his brothers keeper". He being the first one to
shed blood, by a man was his blood shed.
"Of all fruit of the garden you may eat, but of the tree that is in the MIDST of the Garden you may not eat, for in the day you eat of it you shall
die"
If I say to you, "if you blow yourself up with dynamite, you will die" yet you, not knowing what dynamite is, decide to light the fuse that once
kindled can not be put out, how shall you then be saved from your own destruction, unless you cut the fuse to which you are the spark?
