i’ve always been a non believer but have always thought that it was better to have the good book out there as a moral compass than not. the problem has been/is the preachers of the good book are not good. The houses of the good book now fly rainbow flags above them.
Unfortunately yes they do. However I rather think that the problem is too many are happy to have someone between themselves and that book. Because as a person reads it, it reads them.
I pray you would come to understand that.
Yes some preachers are bad... “trust God...question everyone else”
The good book describes what you are witnessing as the equivalent of about 2,000 demon possessed swine.
That’s what these last about 2,000 years has been.
Swine is an unclean animal for Israel in the good book.
Wasn’t to be eaten or even touched.
The good book discusses doctrines of demons, unclean doctrines of lies and falsehoods and leaven(a picture of sin)
So, the last about 2,000 years is full of unclean doctrines of demons that Israel shouldn’t eat or touch..
The last about 2,000 years is also considered the ‘Church Age’.
The Church Age was always going to be full of demon possessed/ bad doctrines, bad shepherds, that one would be wise not to eat or consume.
The good book can be read and applied without attending a church.
Even if that Church doesn’t have a rainbow flag flying, it may still have other doctrines of demons that leaven the whole lump.
Thankfully, it wasn’t about 3,000 demon possessed swine in the good book.
Thankfully, it wasn’t about 3,000 cubits Israel was kept from the Ark as they crossed over into the Promised Land.
It too, was about 2,000.
Cubits, that is..
Same non exact, yet exactly the same- about 2,00.
A measurement of distance in the good book and an accounting of demon possessed swine in the good book.
We have the blessing of being born about 2,000 years after His death as the Passover Lamb , His burial as the Unleavened Bread of Sincerity and Truth, and His resurrection as First Fruits of those who have fallen asleep.
He’s the Ark that Israel has had to stay away for about 2,000 years before crossing over into the Promised Land..
While they’ve been wandering this wilderness,He’s in Heaven.
The about 2,000 years is just about up.
That includes the modern ‘Church Age’
For His Purposes and His Glory
May He help your non belief with the gift of faith!
