New Book... Coming out Soon: HOLY AXIOM! Tips of the iceberg... *************** MESSAGE/RECAP: The Bible Is Not God’s Word *************************************** FILLING THE WORD There is no greater danger to a cause than to leave a word in its presentation which needs filling up, as may often be intuitively sensed. It is of no avail to pass it over because such a word hinders all progress. Any building erected over it will inevitably collapse sooner or later, even if the greatest skill and best materials have been used. Such is the case with the various Christian religious communities of today. They persistently close their eyes and ears to certain points in their teaching which can be sensed as illogical. They try to dismiss them with empty phrases instead of taking thought in all seriousness. They readily apprehend the danger that one day the temporary doctrines they have ministered over such gaps through a teaching of blind faith will no longer suffice, and they dread the moment when enlightenment will show up the flimsy character of these structures. Moreover they know that they will then no longer be able to persuade anybody to follow such a deceitful book, with the natural result that all the rest of their teaching, however sound, will also be discarded. They also realise that a single flash of fresh truth must sweep away such artificial constructions. Still, for want of something better, they seek to maintain their swaying plank in spite of every danger. Even worse, they are prepared to defend their position by every means in their power, and would destroy him who dared to provide a firmer crossing over the word through the Truth Itself! Without any hesitation they would try to repeat what occurred here on earth nearly two thousand years ago, and which still casts its shadow right down to the present day. Yet they themselves, while using that event as the subject of a great accusation against the blindness and pernicious stubbornness of mankind, also make it the focal point of their own teaching and faith. It was the church dignitaries and scholars of that time, with their narrow dogmatism and a conceit which betrayed their weakness, who were unable to recognise the Truth.
