bible=tree of knowledge of good+evil () Jesus=tree of life

[Michael000]

The bible

It is a book containing the knowledge of good and evil.

The forbidden fruit was not an apple. The fruit of a tree is also paper. And upon the pages of the bible is the knowledge of good and evil. The bible is poisoned with the knowledge of evil.

Ritualistic animal sacrifices, ceremonies incorporating the blood of dead animals, superstitious numbers, curses, evil spirits, dark prophecies... all in the bible.

Plotting, conspiracy, mass-murder, betrayal, genocide, slavery, suffering, wars... all in the bible.

A book is not 'Holy' if it contains the knowledge of evil, Satan, the devil, demons...

It is darkness. It is contaminated. It is unclean. It is poison.

Religion is the church of the poison mind. Minds poisoned by the knowledge of evil. People are deceived by religion.

The kingdom of God is within us all. Not within the pages of a book containing the knowledge of evil. I have recently shut it for good. I will not touch, nor taste of it again.

Because of Jesus Christ, I'm back in the land of the living. I've torn off my fig-leaf, and am returning to Eden. I am who God made me to be. The shame, guilt, and confusion is past-tense.

Thank You Jesus.

The Tree of Life = Jesus Christ

Eat freely from this tree and be saved.

"Imagine" - John Lennon

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

Jesus is the answer!

Michael,

You posted this over at the Orthodox-tradition list too. Perhaps you chose to post and leave before seeing the comments that followed? I see you haven't responded to any of those comments so I'm assuming you have no intention to dialogue, but to try and disrupt. Am I wrong?

[Justin Kissel]

A book is not 'Holy' if it contains the knowledge of evil, Satan, the devil, demons...

And if God (or Jesus) has knowledge of evil things and persons, and allows them to happen and exist, does that make God unholy as well? What does it make Jesus Christ, when he told people to follow the legalistic pharisees in everything they said? (Matt. 23:1-7) What kind of savior would tell people to follow the commands of those who were legalistic and hypocritical?

I will stick with the incarnate Wisdom, Jesus my God, the head of the body of Christ, the Church.

Imagine John Lennon, little ignatius.

My parents were hippies. I have heard all this garbage before out of people much more versed in it than you. And it's all in your head, man. But thanks for illuminating us with your retarded pop culture/hedonic-religion bomb. Incedentally, have you ever heard of a fella named Mani? No, wasn't some mongol hippy trash actually, but an historical figure. He was hilarious! Woa... Zen. Buddy, your genius has turned my world-view on its ear. I felt really bad before and didn't even know it. But now I'm feeling soooo good.

You can take a little teasing, can't you?

Welcome to the list. :mrgreen:

Sincerely:
Far Out Joseph, ... man

PERHAPS WE CAN SAY THAT THE "BIBLE" IS A POISON, AND THE CHURCH SOLELY HAS THE ANTIDOTE?
IN CERTAIN SENSE THIS IS TRUE, IF WE SEE WHAT THE "JEWS" DOES WITH THE ANCIENT REVELATION.
IN CHRIST, AND WISHING TO ALL YOU A GOOD PASCHA OF RESURRECTION,
GIORGOS
