1 | Jesus according to Paul, vs. the Gospels | 2 Tim 3:16 | LuckyCharm | 42818 | ||
Thank you, Scribe! I've bookmarked that site for future reference. I already had these texts in hardcover form, but it sure is nice to have an online version available! What you said about false teachers is very true, too. It's just human nature to want to believe whatever suits us. Do you have any examples of the kind of false pretenses you mention (i.e. writing as a "spiritual" Timothy)? And also, wouldn't this throw some of our canonical letters into question, where the authorship is disputed (i.e. Hebrews)? Thanks, --Cheryl |

2 | Jesus according to Paul, vs. the Gospels | 2 Tim 3:16 | Scribe | 42846 | ||
Yes the book of Enoch. The writer was not Enoch and no serious scholar ever believed it was. It was not written until about 200Ad and it was an attempt by the writer to make it sound like Peter was quoting the book of Enoch. The writer probably made up an idea that he was possessed by the spirit of Enoch. This kind of thing is still with us in the cults that teach similar doctrines of the gnostics. The book of Hebrews was written by Paul and it is obvious if you compare it to Pauls writings. I don't much care for scholars that squabble over who wrote what. It is pretty obvious to the reader even if they aren't a Greek and Hebrew Scholar. God had been Gracious to keep His Word available to us, and will do so until we go to be with Him. I think writer of the The Apocalypse of Adam and the writer of the book of Enoch had similar demons. The book of Mormon and the Quran follow the same pattern of men trying to sound spiritual, but because they do not know God never pull it off to the discerning christian. The born again Christian is the only spiritual man that is in communion with the Holy Spirit and has the divine light that these imposters were trying to pretend. Thus the born again Christian can always recognize these imposters becuase the born again christiant that walks intimatly with Christ is so familiar with the truth and the light that the darkness and the false is manifest, or obviouse when the holy saint hears it or reads it. There is not much value in studying all the details of a cult teaching. All you really need, in order to expose them, is to be familiar with the truth. May God Bless you in Your Study of His Word. |
