WHY I GAVE UP JESUS
It has been a comparatively short time since men were burned at the
stake for thinking or speaking truths that conflicted with the doctrines
and teachings of the existing churches.
One of the things they were burned at the stake for, for example, was
teaching that Jesus taught a Doctrine of Rebirth.
The monks sent to debate the Albigensians on this issue were publicly
humiliated and ridiculed because they could not provide a convincing
argument demonstrating that the Albigensians were wrong.
What followed was the first crusade--the Albigensian Crusade.
Indeed, much has been said of
the "dark ages." Few, however, realize that we have not yet emerged from
them.
Got that right.
The media will NOT allow the contradiction of the Christian doctrine of
the resurrection, for example.
The same deceptive methods, doctrines, customs, traditions are
practiced and promulgated among the masses who still find themselves in
bondage, "spiritual" bondage, to these pagan ways which had their origin
in lies.
Well, the multi-billion dollar Christian religious establishment has economic
interests which are very well protected by the media.
Millions of souls find themselves so steeped in the accepted
tenets of "Tradition" that even should the real truth be brought to them
they would throw up their hands in horror.
Agreed.
*Especially* if they were to be taught that Jesus taught that they would
live another life by means of a 'resurrection'.
