He’s trying to shake you bible thumbers loose a little from your dependence on the bible. He wants you to find the real teacher within. He uses that language to shock you,because you are so asleep. It is the only thing that seems to stir you. Thinking you know Jesus and God when you only have words. If you were in a cave and had a book that described the sun, and how it feels, and how bright it is you might imagine that you knew the sun. But once outside in the warmth and light of the sun, you would see the difference. Roy teaches a judeo-christian meditation that brings you into the presence of the God, where you can see for yourself the truth of things and God can act directly through you.

Well, I'm glad you admit that this is his goal & agenda. Frankly, non-Bible readers could use more Bible reading. Oh, and BTW, Masters reads the Bible enough only to quote it enough both to give him an aura of authenticity...plus not appear too extreme out there. (IOW, Masters reads the Bible whereever it can advantageous for him to quote it).

Frankly. People have spent their lifetimes and lives preserving the Bible over the centuries; translating it; and even dying or risking their all to "smuggle" it into countries where the governments there have tried to stamp it out. If it's been worth that much even at the subjective level (never mind it being the objective revelation of God), how dare people like Masters treat it like used toilet paper!!!

I like Roy, he’s a gentleman and a brilliant thinker, but because I know God through His direct revelation to mankind, the Holy bible, I know that I am not God, that Roy is not God, and that no one, not even Obama’s Red Guard or Black Guards will pry it out of my thumbs or heart, even when I’m dead.
