It looks like the Jews get slighted again

It looks like Jesus gets slighted, also. Jesus and His Body of born again BELIEVERS is NOT an institution nor a 'religion' with man made teachings which are worldly and secular which are not of God.

His church is all about HIS WORD ALONE and fellowship with The Father. Christians are well aware, Jesus and His disciples were Jewish and Paul being their most ardent defender. Then he encountered Jesus and became born again, not of the flesh but of the Spirit. It wasn't about 'law' anymore but ALL ABOUT JESUS - grace and faith - and then he was the most ardent teacher of the Kingdom of God. Then God chose him to write 2/3 of the NT inspired by His Spirit that lived within him. Christians know their roots and the OT tells of great men of faith.

The counterfeits will be destroyed as everything NOT of GOD will be. This is the time to deceive man so that is why they exist.

I’m going to say I believe a lot of what you posted (but not all) and leave it at that. I don’t need another debate filibuster right now. Take care. Peace be to you.

Where do you get this idea that the Church is not of God? Also where do you get his idea that this is the time to deceive man?

I don't think the reviewer or the author made any claim about this book being a definitive history of JESUS. It is a history of the Roman Catholic Church. Period.

I have not read it and can't comment on its content, but I can envision a HISTORY that is neither an advocacy nor a condemnation, but an objective view of an institution that, for better or worse, has shaped most of what we know today as Western Civilization.

It could be a fascinating work, and a worthwhile addition to any thinking man's library.
