The invention of the printing press forced the catholic church through a “purification” process and also began Protestantism. It put the word of God into the hands of the common man, where it belonged.

The internet is like the invention of the printing press on steroids. It is sending the entire christian church through a purification. This man is spot on and, thanks to the internet, his words can be exposed, criticised, discussed on their merit or lack thereof.

That is a good thing.

The CI movement is exploding all over the internet. I first heard of it right here on FR seven years ago and became an adherent in less than a week. And sites like this: http://jewishnotgreek.com make the plain case.

Too many people have tried to redefine plain words especially for the bible to alter its meaning. More and more, these people are being exposed and the bible is being allowed to stand on what it says, not on what people want it to say.

I’m just finishing this right now:

He lays it out pretty clear. No, I’m not part of the same denomination as him, but I share his views on this subject.

There are a lot of things changing.

Too many people see the bible as a book. It’s not. It is a collection of books, songs, visions and letters. It is wrong to say “it” is the word of God. Rather, it CONTAINS the word of God. I can prove it quite easily. When Paul says it is him speaking and not God, those are not God’s words. They are his. And they are in the bible. To say the bible is the word of God is to say those very words spoken by paul are the word of God. That would be a lie.

I share his views on this subject.

Psalm 138:2

I will worship toward thy holy temple,
and praise thy name
for thy lovingkindness
and for thy truth:
for thou hast magnified thy word
above all thy name.
