This really got to me. This has been a problem for me as well. It is interesting that my pastor just mentioned it today during Christmas morning
service. Sometimes I swear that is a conspiracy in and of itself in a form of a spiritual attack from Satan and his ilk. If he can prevent us from
reading the Bible, he can prevent us from knowing God.
That is why I started my own online Bible Study. Breaking down the word of God into a topical concordance. It worked for awhile, and led me to some
deeper truths, and knowledge. I also noticed that I would have excuse upon excuse not to update it/study. At one I lost my host and the site. For some
reason over half of what I did I could not find on my computer. I think it was due to a computer crash I sort of recovered from.
Here I decided to get back to it, but am tinkering with webdesign, since I switched over to word press plug and play management. More excuses. I need
to stop with the excuses.
Right now I'm considering Lilith as a myth. How do we really know if this story of Lilith isn't a myth to throw us off of track?
From reading the creation story, it always seems to me that there is only one creation story. The first time it is mentioned, it is within the overall
timeline of how things were created. Then the writer goes back and focuses on how Adam and Eve were created. It's like when the x-men movies were
made. They came out with x-men and x-men 2. Then they went back and focused on wolverine himself. It is also something seen in other literature. After
the main story has been told, the writer goes back and elaborates on the past and/or brings past back to light of the audience.
About the Lilith story in the garden, Satan is the serpent. Lilith turns into an owl. If Satan and his ilk are basically represented by serpents and
Lilith is an owl, no wonder her children are dying off left and right. They would be genetic atrocities. What do you have reptilian feather heads? The
other thing I have a problem with is her capacity to have how many children, since 100 are dying a day?
I do believe some one did find fault with the other books. I believe it was the book of Enoch that was close to becoming a part of the cannon. I do
believe the cannon is the foundation to any other books that may be hidden. A person has to know what is in the Bible first and use that knowledge as
a foundation to determining if other books have any bearing. If there is no foundation, then anyone can claim any book can be the word of God.
I also wonder why these other books haven't survived like the books in the Bible did. Throughout history various people have tried to eradicate it
from the face of the Earth. Many ancient texts have been lost to us, and they have not been as venomously attacked as the Bible has.
To me that is another sign that God is keeping his promises, he did say that his words will not pass away. Men throughout the centuries have tried to
change the words, but yet the basic meaning and stories still stay the same. The KJV is still around even after many, many other translations have
been made. Many condemn the other translations. You still can get older translations such as the Geneva Bible from 1560-1599. It can be found online
free to read.
What is interesting about the Geneva from what I understand is that it use to be the common man's Bible. The KJV was commissioned to be created in
order for all the notes to be taken out of the Bible that helped the common man understand what was being said. It was those notes that the King at
the time didn't like. It is a whole other story how the KJV came into existence.
I will still go back and read Geneva Bible along with the notes along with the KJV. Some find fault with the newer translations. Sometimes it is the
translations that break down the Bible to it barest essence that talks to the people. I started out by reading the translation called "The Way".
Back to my main point about the other books of the Bible. Why didn't those books survive along with the cannon intact when all fire and hell broke
loose when the rulers were bent on the destruction of the Bible. All that is left for the books outside of the Bible as we know it is scrutiny how
they compare to the books that survived the attacks.
How do we really know that these so call hidden books are not a part of the Illuminati plan to cast doubt on the Bible as we know it, and plant false
information into our minds. A person who does not have a solid foundation and faith, can and will be manipulated. Serious doubt can be placed in their
minds. That is what the enemy wants.
