Page 33 - Elohim - Almighty Godhead
P. 33
I am well aware that what I just stated on the previous page will never be endorsed
by the likes of Rabbinical Judaism that rejects all such New Testament scripture as
being part of the inspired Word of the Almighty. They prefer to stick with their
additional handed-down traditions which makes the Word to be of no effect.
This book is not aimed at reaching Rabbinical Judaism.
My purpose so far has been to use their biased love of tradition-based beliefs
as vivid illustrations of the
BINDING AND BLINDING POWER OF REPLACING TRUTH WITH TRADITION:
“BUT THEIR MINDS WERE BLINDED. Paul
FOR UNTIL THIS DAY
THE SAME VEIL REMAINS UNLIFTED
IN THE READING OF
THE OLD TESTAMENT,
BECAUSE THE VEIL IS
TAKEN AWAY IN CHRIST.
BUT EVEN TO THIS DAY,
WHEN MOSES IS READ,
A VEIL LIES ON THEIR HEART.
NEVERTHELESS WHEN
ONE TURNS TO THE LORD, THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY.”
2 Cor 3:14-17
There is only one pathway to avoid the pitfalls of tradition and that is to embrace
scripture-based truth. There are three principles that are crucial to imparting truth
to sincere seekers. They are all “C” words:
These three “BE DILIGENT TO PRESENT YOURSELF
security APPROVED TO GOD,
measures will
also keep you, A WORKER WHO DOES NOT NEED TO BE ASHAMED,
dear reader, RIGHTLY DIVIDING THE WORD OF TRUTH.”
from 2 Tim 2:15-16
