Corrections To Wrong Statements

In The Bible

A wise man verifies whatever he hears.

Introduction

The Bible bears evidence of wrong statements recorded in it. For example, prophet Jeremiah warns the world against man-made doctrines and fabricated teachings and narrations.

8 "How can you say, 'We are wise,

And the law of the LORD is with us'?

Look, the false pen of the scribe certainly works falsehood.

Jeremiah 8:8

It is a pity that the general public do not know that sometimes, priests meet, fabricate teachings and spread the same to the world. Such teachings are distorted in order to please tyrants, to favour those in positions of authority and to sway public opinion in the directions intended by the priests. Pope John Paul II calls such errors, “Sins committed in the service of the Truth.”

IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

From The Of Ecclesiastes

The Same Fate Do Not Befall All

2 All things come alike to all:

One event happens to the righteous and the wicked;

To the good, the clean, and the unclean;

To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice.

As is the good, so is the sinner;

He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.

Ecclesiastes 9:2

The world is a school. The purpose is to test and separate the good from the bad ones. Eventually, the same fate does not befall the good and bad ones. For the good ones inherit the everlasting kingdom, with lasting treasures and pleasures. But, the bad ones inherit hell fire, wherein is all sufferings and gnashing of teeth.

The Dead Are Not Dead

5 For the living know that they will die;

But the dead know nothing,

And they have no more reward,

For the memory of them is forgotten.

Ecclesiastes 9:5

The dead are not dead. They are by far more knowledgeable than the living. In spirit, all the senses become greatly enhanced, as much a thousand times. The living may not know what is killing him, but the dead knows what killed him.

The memory of the dead is never lost. For all records are complete and perfect in spirit.

Death Is Not The End Of Life

6 Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished;

Nevermore will they have a share

In anything done under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 9:6

Reincarnation is both possible and real. The dead reincarnate until they complete the appointed number of times of reincarnation. When they reincarnate, they still partake of the good things of life on earth.

There Is No Wasted Years

11 I returned and saw under the sun that —

The race is not to the swift,

Nor the battle to the strong,

Nor bread to the wise,

Nor riches to men of understanding,

Nor favor to men of skill;

But time and chance happen to them all.

12 For man also does not know his time:

Like fish taken in a cruel net,

Like birds caught in a snare,

So the sons of men are snared in an evil time,

When it falls suddenly upon them.

Ecclesiastes 9:11-12

These statements seem to be so because the world is an illusion necessary for a while. But in truth, there is no wasted efforts. Besides, the best things of life are for those who live in righteousness.

From The Of Psalms

Man Is Not Dust

14 For He knows our frame;

He remembers that we are dust.

Psalms 103:14

Man is not dust. He is not flesh. He is spirit. The spirit dwells in the body. The body and spirit only co-exist, but do not mix.

Man Does Not Pass Away

15 As for man, his days are like grass;

As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone,

And its place remembers it no more.

Psalms 103:15-16

Death is not the end of life, just as birth is not the beginning of life. At death, people do not actually die. Instead, it is the body that dies, while the spirit lives on.

People reincarnate, even in the same compound, village, town or locality.

In The New Testament

From The Of John

The Word Did not Become Flesh

14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

John 1:14

Man is not the body. He is spirit. The spirit dwells in the body. The body and spirit only co-exist, but do not mix.

Jesus Is Not The Only Son Of God

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son , that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17

9 In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

1 John 4:8-10

Jesus is not the only begotten son of God. The Angels are sons of God assigned with various duties and responsibilities. Even, humanity are children of God.

From The Of Romans

The Law Is Still Valid

27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. 29 Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, 30 since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law. Romans 3:27-31

From The Of Galatians

We Are Not Adopted Sons Of God

4 But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law , 5 to redeem those who were under the law , that we might receive the adoption as sons.

Galatians 4:3-5

We are the original sons of God. We are not adopted. For the person adopting adopts what does not belong to him. God does not adopt any. Rather, He created us all as His children. By sin, man lost the glory of God. But, by the blood of Jesus, we regain the lost glory; now, forever.

Those Who Are Led By The Spirit Are Still Under The Law.

16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law .

Galatians 5:16-18

Those who are led by the spirit are still under the law. The laws of Moses, which include the commandments, statutes and precepts, are everlasting ordinances, for the good of humanity. Even science has proved that the laws of life are universal, perfect and everlasting. Today, the world suffers different types of problems and calamities because man deviated from the law. Jesus kept the laws. And the saints of God are those who live by, and abide in, the laws of God, which are righteousness and life.
