FAULTING THE BIBLE AND JESUS CHRIST.
Some people do not have the
courage to stand the Bible and Jesus Christ. They crave and falter under hatred
or false accusation; some even slander and lie against Him. The worst amongst
them are the overzealous religions men and women of the world. They cannot
improve their argument on issues concerning Jesus Christ and all he stood, and
is standing for, including the transparent life that He led while He was on
earth. They resort to raising their voices too loud, erroneously thinking that
by raising their voice they will win the argument. It is my considered opinion
that those who find fault and mistake with the BIBLE and JESUS CHRIST either:-
1) They have something to lose.
2) They have something to
hide,
3) They have something to
protect.
4) They are chronic sinners who do not want
to repent.
5) They are afraid that the loving Jesus will
reject them considering the extent they have gone.
Jesus once asked such people
a question which they were unable to answer and today their offspring are still
battling in vain to pro-fare an answer to it. "Of all I did in your
present, which one are you accusing me of?
He did not write a book,
whatever you read or are reading, is written by those who witnessed his
activities while on earth, yet people are accusing him of falsehood, what a
miscarriage of justice or outright malice? At death, he prayed that God forgive
those who framed and killed him for they know not what they are doing.
With His Grace and Love, His
unsearchable Riches, So much hope for His life, that the gates of Hell could
and cannot prevail over him, is still calling you to come and receive peace of
mind and eternal life. He is now in Heaven and will soon come back to this
wretched earth to judge the wicked that refused the grace of God through Jesus
Christ.
PARTING SHOP> Don’t waste
your precious time trying to fault the Bible or Jesus Christ, its an exercise
in futility. You will discover that you have wasted your time doing nothing.
For a start those who wrote the Bible did not understand what they were
writing, because they were controlled by a power beyond their control, “The
Holy Spirit” I am of the opinion that if the authors were in control, they
would have expunged certain aspect of the Bible which condemn them. “All
scripture (Bible) is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness”
(2Timothy 3:16)
Hear what Isaiah one of the
prophets of God in the Bible confessed when the Majesty and Glory of God were
revealed to him “Then said I, Woe is me! For I am undone; because I am a man of
unclean lips, and I dwell in the mist of a people of unclean lips: for mine
eyes have seen the King, the Lord of host”
As for Jesus Christ, my friends
don’t waste your time trying to fault him, because everything about him is
mysterious. To be on the safe side take as given, just like the children of
kindergarten school who recite poems without knowing the meaning. Jesus said
that the kingdom of God belongs to people who reason like kids. How can you
explain that the man who introduced Jesus to the world does not know him? It
was John the Baptist the fore-runner who, when he saw Jesus for the first time
said “Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world. This is he
of whom I said, after me commeth a man which is preferred before me; for he was
before me. (John 1: 29b-30) In verse 31 John said, “And I knew him not: but
that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with
water. If this did not mean anything to
you then, see the confusion in John the Baptist when he sent two of his
disciple to enquire from Jesus Christ personally if he was the expected
Messiah. “And John calling unto him two of his disciples and sent them to Jesus
saying. Art thou he that should come or look we for another? (Luke 7:19) What
was Christ response? “Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, ad tell
John what things ye have seen and heard: how that the blind see, the lame walk,
the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is
preached. And blessed is he whosoever shall not be offended in me” (Luke
7:22-23)
About 4,000 years before
Christ was born prophet proclaimed “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a
sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name
Immanuel. (Isaiah 7:14) People thought that this prophet has gone mad, how can
a virgin conceive, very impossible, but did not bother the prophet as he went
ahead to name the child. It was also prophesized that he will be born in
Bethlehem, a very small town in Judea.
He was born by Virgin Mary in
Bethlehem Judea; mysteriously Jesus Christ never called Mary his mother all
through his ministry on earth. His life, times and death was also a mystery.
After the age of 12, nobody heard about him again until he appeared suddenly at
the age of 30 and by the next 3 years he has completed his assignment and off
he went mysteriously into heaven. He told the people that he will die and on
the third day, he will rise from death, they thought it was a huge joke, not
taking anything for granted; they stationed heavily armed soldiers to guard his
grave, at least for three days and see how he will accomplish a feat never
heard of in the history of man. Little
did they know that the grave could not keep him captive, for even in the grave
Jesus is Lord!! Going into the grave in the first place was a mission by Christ
to collect the keys of Hell and set those that are bound free. He did it in
style for He made an open show of the devil out of it.
How can you fault a man who
thought it not robbery to be equal to God and also proved it. He walked upon
the sea, made the lame walk, opened the eyes of a blind man, forgave sinners,
brought money from the fish belle, feed five thousand men, excluding women and
children, with five fishes and seven loves of bread, and had 12 baskets
(representing 12 tribes of Israel) as left over. The only man that went to the
grave of a man who died and was buried and have been inside the grave for four
days and the body is already decomposing and called the dead man back to life.
The Jewish religious zealots
did not find fault in him, on three occasions Pilate the Roman Governor
overseeing Israel at that time did not find fault in him, the Devil did not
find fault in him. All the atheist that lived after Jesus could not fault him,
most of them at their dying bed regretted fighting the Lord of Glory. If after
reading this post you want to continue on your wild goose chase, I wish you
what you wish yourself, but my advice is that you stop wasting your time,
because this same Jesus you are trying to fault will eventually be your Judge,
how painful it will be when the one you fought all through your life on earth,
and who is always begging you to repent and give your life to him for safety,
is the same one going to judge you for eternity. Remember, that “For God so
loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in
him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) Shalom!!
