This is my facsimile copy of Codex Sinaiticus, the first few major codices like the original this is a photocopy of, are our very first versions of what we today would consider a Genesis to Revelation copy of the Bible. Codex Sinaiticus took upwards of nearly 400 sheep to... make and would have cost the equivalent of hundreds of thousands of dollars in today’s currency. By the 4th century when this was made, the perspective would have been that this contained the scripture more than that it was scripture. All of these major early codices operated as mini ancient libraries. And all of our earliest examples of them: whether that’s Codex Sinaiticus, Alexandrinus, Vaticanus, Washingtonianus, etc., have Christian books included within the contents of their covers that we today don’t consider scripture. So it is completely incorrect to claim that early church inclusion in a codex equates to scriptural reception. That’s just not true unless you’re willing to argue books like 4th Maccabees, The Shephered of Hermas, Epistle of Barnabas, and 1st Clement and 2nd Clement, that no church today accepts as scripture, should be included within your Bible. Likewise, the church recognizing books does not mean that their ability to do so gives them the authority. To say that the church gave us our Bible is like saying that the postal service gave you your mail. Your letter carrier is not the progenitor of the mail you receive. Those were written prior to, and even despite, your mail man or woman eventually getting them in your mailbox. The church is the servant and subsidiary of scripture, not the origin. This is why I’ve said in the past that the Bible made the church, the church didn’t make the Bible. Watch the full video: See John Meade’s talk on canon lists:show more

To all these Protestants who claim you are former Catholics, and you say that the Catholic Church taught you not to read the Bible or that you should stay away from the Bible, and that you can't understand it, only the Church can, quit creating calumny and falsehoods. I have literally walked into Mass and they have Bibles out in stands. You can literally contact your diocese and they'll mail you a Bible, as well as the Catechism. I know because I've done it. Vatican II, even the Catechism of the Catholic Church, requires Christians to read the Bible, so just stop with the calumny. There are a lot of things I disagree with in the Catholic Church, but this is not one of them. So stop lying. The Catholic Church teaches to read the Bible. They have study Bibles. They give Bibles out. Calumny is a sin. cc: The Bible In Context needGod.net

“The church no more gave us the New Testament canon than Sir Isaac Newton gave us the force of gravity… Newton did not create gravity but recognized it” - J.I Packer (As cited in Kenneth J. Collins and Jerry L. Walls, Roman but not Catholic: what remains at stake 500 years after the Reformation (Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2017), 21). By the time the church was having discussions of canon lists and what books did or didn’t possess the mark of inspiration. The books of inspired scripture had already been written, read, copied, passed around, and disseminated for some time. Paul is already being recognized as scripture within the 1st century by Peter in 2 Pet. 3:16, and Paul himself is quoting Luke as scriptural alongside Deuteronomy in 1 Timothy 5. And let’s not forget that the Christians in the first century had a Bible: we call it the Old Testament. When Paul says “all scripture is God breathed” in 2 Timothy, no one is confused about what Paul means when he uses the term “scripture.” Just because books existed as independent documents in the form of physical scrolls and books separate from one another prior to the fourth century with them being codified all in one single unit then, doesn’t mean that they weren’t the Bible prior to that point. We need to be careful not to read back an anachronistic perspective due to our modern privilege of being able to easily have all the biblical books in a single-bound-volume. This is largely due to the amazing and streamlined process of publishing today.

DERIVING PROFIT FROM SCRIPTURE The accuracy of the Bible is not in the archeological flawlessness of its writings nor the personality of the authors, but in its ability to deliver God's intent as far as the revelation of God, Jesus, man, and salvation are concerned. The profiting of Scripture is only derived under the influence of The Spirit of Revelation, which guides your heart to the essence of every story, verse, and expression, captured within Scripture. As open as The Bible is, there are seals. You can only open the book, but only The Spirit of Revelation unlocks the seals, opening you up to mysteries. What profits you is not the verse of the Scripture, it is the light in the Scripture. The focus of your Bible study should center on the love of God, captured in the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ for man (being the object), and the mercy plan of salvation.

At a Q&A, John MacArthur is asked about Christian nationalism. The kingdom of God is not of this world. Jesus said that. He said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would [fight].” His kingdom is not of this world. The kingdom of this world is a separate world; they’re not linked together. Let me say it another way: Nothing that happens in any nation, whether it’s a Communist nation, a Muslim nation, or a “quasi-Christian” nation, or an atheistic nation—nothing in that nation politically, socially has anything to do with the advancement of the kingdom of God, because the kingdom of God is separate from that system. God, in His sovereignty, is building His church, “and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it,” Jesus said. So the idea that you should link up some political effort, some political process, some social process, some gain of power or influence in a culture as part of the advance of Christianity is alien to Christianity. You never have our Lord approaching anything like that, nor the apostles, and particularly the apostle Paul. He sought to gain no favor with the Roman Empire whatsoever, or for that matter, with any other of the rulers that he ran into during his life. Now, that is not to say that we are indifferent to what happens in the nation. We’ve been talking about that the last couple of Sunday mornings. We have to be the people who uphold righteousness. When we come to vote, we want to vote for that which is the most righteous option. Obviously, we can’t vote in righteousness, but we have to vote in a way that reflects our commitment to the righteousness of God. So we couldn’t possibly elect somebody who was an abortionist, somebody who was LGBTQ or LGBTQ-affirming, or any other deviation from God’s righteous moral standard. So it gets harder, doesn’t it, nowadays, because even sometimes when politicians are more conservative and anti-abortion, they may be sinful and wicked in some other categories, and it’s very hard to find out who is really honest and who is simply dishonest and seeking power. But in the end, we do what we can with the understanding that the responsibility of the church is not to advance the kingdom of this world. That’s a faulty viewpoint. Christian nationalism is usually tied to what is called post-millennialism, and that is the view that the church, somehow, by influencing the culture, can bring in the kingdom of Christ. In other words, it’s the idea not that Christ returns and sets up His kingdom, but that the church establishes His kingdom and then hands it to Him. That is not what Scripture teaches. What Scripture teaches is what we’re learning from the book of Revelation. Things are going to get worse and worse and worse. And the end of human history is not the church triumphant, reigning in the world and taking over the structures of human kingdoms; that’s not what happens. At the end of human history, the believers are persecuted and murdered, and that’s the very opposite of what Christian nationalism would anticipate. So we believe the Bible teaches that things get worse and worse, headed toward the wrath of God, which we’re seeing in Revelation, and then our Lord returns, Himself, to establish His kingdom is clearly what we read in the book of Revelation. OK?

This is Christianity!!!! If you talk, idiots will ask if the church is Government. This was exactly what the early church in Acts was doing. The church cannot be waiting on Government while making fruitless prayer. The financial solution is in the offerings collected. Other solutions will come from the members of the church that have, to the members of the church in need. If you like continue going to a church that pastor pockets all the money and asks you to keep praying when the solution is right in your front

If you’re arguing that “the Septuagint” or “the Dead Sea Scrolls,” both included certain books, and on that basis we must have those books in our Bibles today, then you have a big problem. Both “the Septuagint” and “the Dead Sea Scrolls” are mini-libraries — they include documents considered both scriptural and non-scriptural in their day. For example, the Letter of Aristeas, 3rd and 4th Maccabees, the Ascension of Isaiah, the Testament of Job, the Life of Adam and Eve, the Psalms of Solomon, and the Assumption of Moses are all part of the Septuagint collections. The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs, The Community Rule, recordings of the last words of Joseph, Judah, Levi, Naphtali, and Amram (the father of Moses) were amongst the Dead Sea Scrolls. Few (if any) of these books are considered scripture today by modern Christian or Jewish groups. Both the Septuagint and the Dead Sea Scrolls are representative of ancient library collections — collections that contained scripture but that were not themselves wholly considered scripture. We today group them in these convenient categories with these helpful titles, but it is a misunderstanding to think of them as, or necessarily representative of, a single thing.

The scriptures God has given Christians in the Bible and in modern revelation clearly teach the need for a church. We affirm that the scriptures, ancient and modern, clearly teach the origin of and need for a church directed by and with the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Lord’s restored Church, established to teach the fulness of His doctrine and to officiate with His priesthood authority to perform the ordinances necessary to enter the kingdom of God.

THE BIBLE HAPPENED IN THIS ORDER: The apostles built churches FIRST…..then they wrote letters to those churches.....those letters then became the Bible, NOT the other way around. This proves Sola Scriptura false This is why Scripture says the Church (and not Scriptures) is the pillar and foundation of the truth.

Archeological Proof of the Bible- P.1. The world is full of proof of the Bible, but we have “science” and “scholars” led by Satan who come in and tell us that it’s been “debunked” or that it’s not real. We have been lied to since kindergarten friends… because Satan can’t have the world knowing the Bible is true, because that would prove God is true. The Bible is our true history and it’s time the world wake up to what’s in front of them.

Like it or not, church has failed and it is failing more and more everyday. This is not the church we read about in scripture, but many of us have become so blind and foolish to see it. If you say it, mumu people will gather and think you’re attacking the church. No organization can fix Nigeria if the church doesn’t stand up and do it. Mumu people will ask, is church government ? You lack proper understanding of the power the church has or use to have.

⭕The End of the false Dilemma The Quran "The last preserved revelation" dominant over The Torah and Gospel 5:48. And We revealed to you the Book, with the truth, confirming the Book that preceded it and superseding it.. The False Claim "Fake Dilemma" : Christianity or "Constantinity" Claim that Quran confirmed the Bible, while The Bible is a collection of books written by around 40 different authors, composed over approximately 1,500 years, It's a man made history book mixed between the truth and falsehood, it's not the Torah or Gospel (Muslim's can easily show many of contradictions in bible) There is no book called the ‘Bible’ mentioned in the Quran, but The Quran confirms that some of the People of the Book know the truth but conceal its signs and verses, and this was proved to be true by many scripture scholers that converted to Islam like: Samaw’al ibn Yahya; A former Jewish rabbi who embraced Islam, And His famous book: “Silencing the Jews” The first Bible "Codex Sinaiticus" is a book that was compiled in Greek about five years after the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. Christians theologians confirm that the Gospel should be in Aramaic, and the Bible contains Ugly Greek phrases, which indecat to a bad translation from Aramaic to Greek "I attached a video about it, soon I will make separate tread about Ugly Greek in the Bible, God's willing" The current bible was ‘pick-and-choose’ process. They rejected any writings that directly denied the divinity of Christ, such as the Arian writings and the Gospel of Thomas "essentially rejecting several early gospels" and most of these books and manuscripts were burned, by Constantine forces, that's why it's impossible to find a carbon dated manuscript from the first century. Question : Where is the true Gospel of Jesus that contains God’s direct revelation, where's the original scripture? A: This Question should be directed to Christians and Jews, not Muslims, and even if they found it, the Quran dominant over it Question : Where does it say in the Quran that the Gospel and Torah were corrupted? A: About the corruption and distortion of the scriptures, Here's the verses : Quran 2:75 Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah and then distort the Torah after they had understood it while they were knowing? Quran 2:79 So woe to those who write the "scripture" with their own hands, then say, "This is from Allah," in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn. Quran 2:159 Indeed, those who conceal what We sent down of clear proofs and guidance after We made it clear for the people in the Scripture - those are cursed by Allah and cursed by those who curse, Quran 2:174 Indeed, they who conceal what Allah has sent down of the Book and exchange it for a small price - those consume not into their bellies except the Fire. And Allah will not speak to them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them. And they will have a painful punishment. Quran 3:78 And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allah," but it is not from Allah. And they speak untruth about Allah while they know. Quran 3:187 And [mention, O Muhammad], when Allah took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture, [saying], "You must make it clear to the people and not conceal it." But they threw it away behind their backs and exchanged it for a small price. And wretched is that which they purchased. Quran 4:46 Among the Jews are those who distort words from their [proper] usages and say, "We hear and disobey" and "Hear but be not heard" and "Ra'ina," twisting their tongues and defaming the religion. And if they had said [instead], "We hear and obey" and "Wait for us [to understand]," it would have been better for them and more suitable. But Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, except for a few. Quran 5:13 So for their breaking of the covenant We cursed them and made their hearts hard. They distort words from their [proper] usages and have forgotten a portion of that of which they were reminded. And you will still observe deceit among them, except a few of them. But pardon them and overlook [their misdeeds]. Indeed, Allah loves the doers of good. Quran 5:14 And from those who say, "We are Christians" We took their covenant; but they forgot a portion of that of which they were reminded. So We caused among them animosity and hatred until the Day of Resurrection. And Allah is going to inform them about what they used to do. Quran 6:91 And they did not appraise Allah with true appraisal when they said, "Allah did not reveal to a human being anything." Say, "Who revealed the Scripture that Moses brought as light and guidance to the people? You [Jews] make it into pages, disclosing [some of] it and concealing much. And you were taught that which you knew not - neither you nor your fathers." Say, "Allah [revealed it]." Then leave them in their [empty] discourse, amusing themselves. Quran 7:162 But those who wronged among them changed [the words] to a statement other than that which had been said to them. So We sent upon them a punishment from the sky for the wrong that they were doing. Quran 16:118 And to those who are Jews We have prohibited that which We related to you before. And We did not wrong them [thereby], but they were wronging themselves. Quran 2:101 And when a messenger from Allah came to them confirming that which was with them, a party of those who had been given the Scripture threw the Scripture of Allah behind their backs as if they did not know [what it contained].

White Pastor tell WHITE Parents to have talk about dangerous BLACK people that is 30 times more dangerous. First of all, as rolandsmartin pointed out, if you are black and attending this church, what could possibly be the reason? 🤨 Secondly, this #Pastor embodies the traits of a racist white supremacist who holds the belief that whiteness is superior and views black individuals as inferior. Thirdly, as a #Christian, the teachings at Covenant Bible Church in #Georgetown, #Texas, just outside of #Austin, reflect what Bishop William Barbara refers to as that slave-holding #religion, which is far removed from the true teachings of #JesusChrist. Finally, it is churches like this that led to the establishment of the "#BlackChurch"; they did not want us to worship alongside them, and they certainly did not want us to learn to read so that we could truly understand and interpret the #Bible correctly.

Corruption in the church is the most serious threat to our country today. It’s a bold claim. Yet if we believe Jesus is the hope of the world, and the church is his means of rescuing it, then what threatens the church, threatens our country. What astonishes me, though, is how few Christian leaders are even addressing this threat. At THE ROYS REPORT, we are committed to exposing the rampant corruption in the church, so it can be confronted and remedied. But we need your help to do that. On #GivingTuesday, would you please help us reach our goal, so we can continue our mission? Follow this link to give:

Jonny Ardavanis responding to the question of whether a woman can teach from the pulpit of a church under the authority of her elders on a Sunday morning: "Well, listen, the Bible either says women can preach, or they cannot...I would just encourage people, you and I are not allowed to make arbitrary decisions and say, 'You know what, we think she can teach under our authority once a month.' A woman may be preaching under the authority of her elders, but she is most definitely not preaching under the authority of the New Testament, nor the Holy Spirit who wrote it... You may be asking, 'Would I leave a church that has a woman preaching, even if under the authority of her elders?' Yes, I would. Yes, I would. I would ask the elders to reconsider their position. I would present to them Scripture. And you may be asking, 'Why? What's the consequence of this?' Well, the consequence of this is just, it's disobedience. It's in the Bible. What's the consequence? Weak churches. And when men don't lead, churches die. And when churches break down, the culture breaks down, and you're watching this in our world today. Like in the garden, when you overthrow God's design for the family and for the church, there are disastrous consequences."

“When it comes to abortion, Scripture is silent, as is Jesus.” What a load of bull! From beginning to end, Scripture affirms the value of human Life. And the greatest testimony of all? God took on flesh and died on a cross, revealing the immeasurable worth of EVERY human life, in the womb and out of it. The Episcopal Church do better! God is weeping at your complacency and normalization of the lives that are lost through the violence of abortion.

EMBRACING THE POWER OF GOD'S WORD The Bible is not meant to be worshipped, but to be understood beyond the fragile pages. The words written within it are powerful because the breath of God rests upon them. When you approach Scripture, you are not simply approaching a novel. In fact, the Bible is not a Christian novel. While Christian novels can be beneficial, books written by other men of God are also valuable because they are inspired as well. However, remember this: any inspiration for writing spiritual material that does not reference this foundational Scripture must be discarded. Any spiritual work, no matter the author or their experience, that does not refer to the teachings and inspiration from this Scripture is heretical. Go watch the full sermon titled "Fundamental Doctrines Of The Faith (The Things Most Surely Believed) - Part 1" by Apostle Joshua Selman. #ApostleJoshuaSelman #TheFundamentalDoctrinesOfTheFaithPart1 #TheThingsMostSurelyBelieved #KoinoniaAbuja #KoinoniaZaria #KoinoniaGlobal

Warning to new Christians looking for a church. Here are a few things to lookout for. Avoid the dens of vipers! If they have the LGBTQXYZ flag, or say Black Lives Matter… run the other direction! The gospel is very simple. We are all sinners in need of a savior. Jesus Christ came as God in human form, lived a perfect life and bore our sins on the cross. All we have to do is repent, ask for forgiveness, turn from our sin, and follow Jesus as Lord and Savior of our life. Getting baptized is an outward display of that salvation. Then spend the rest of your life learning more about Him and following his direction. Any church that tells you to keep on sinning, or changes the definition of what the Bible says sin is, is not a Christian church. It is a lie from the Devil.

I'm so sorry that your spiritual leadership abdicated their responsibility to speak God's truth to hurting people, Michelle. A friend texted me this morning, demoralized that the pastor of his church of 12 years did not mention Charlie's assassination at all either. I was grateful to be in a church this morning where our pastor was not so reticent to teach that the Bible is relevant to the pain and horror the nation is experiencing at Charlie's death. At Iryna Zarutska's death. I was grateful that my children and some guests with us were able to hear that. The Bible is not a dead text. It is living and sharper than any two-edged sword. We can't be afraid to wield it in the darkest moments. Especially in the darkest moments.

The child, the music , the softer speak of the pope doesn’t make what he said any less Antichrist. This was an opportunity to tell this young man that YES only God decides and LEAVE IT at that ALONG with the saving gospel for all to hear …but he went on to call an atheist a child of God. Refuted by 👇🏻 John 1:12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— He went on to call his father a good man who could enter that way Refuted by 👇🏻 Romans 3:12 there is no one who does good, not even one.” And the most antichrist of this whole thing is denying that he would be rejected for rejecting Christ and his good works would help him enter heaven. Refuted by 👇🏻 John 14:6 Jesus replied “I am the way the truth and the life , no man comes to the father but by me” Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. This man was not the head of the true church. The head of the church would never speak lies because the head of the church is Jesus Christ. Colossians 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. This is scripture so if you’re upset by it you’re upset with the very words of God.

Pastor warns Don Lemon and ICE protesters they will not step foot inside his church “That will not stand in this church. Freedom of speech doesn't extend to going into someone else's house of worship — Them people know that. That's why you never see them going into a mosque, because they know the Muslim ain't having that. I'm not a Muslim, but we ain't having that” “Don Lemon, don't come here. You roll up in this church doing stuff like that and it's gonna be the Royal Rumble. And the funny thing is, I'm not joking. We have worked hard. We built the church in the name of the Lord. We dedicated it to the Lord. It's built for worship. Our blood, sweat, tears and finances are in this place. And some people who have never darkened the door of a church and never contributed one dime to it roll up in here and disturb our service and scare our children and shout down, shout obscenities in the church. That will not stand in this church.”
