The Bible is Against Philosophy: Thomas Paine (a so-called founding father) once stated in reference to theology that The

study of theology, as it stands in Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on no principles; it proceeds by no authorities; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing; and it admits of no conclusion. Not anything can be studied as a science, ithout our being in possession of the principles upon hich it is founded; and as this is the case ith Christian theology, it is therefore the study of nothing.! (The "ge of #eason, from The $ife and %a&or 'ritings of Thomas Paine!, ed. Philip (. )oner, (Ne *or+, The Citadel Press, ,-./) p01,) "lthough e don2t agree ith the philosophies and ideologies of the so-called founding fathers, e cannot ignore the truth found in this statement. Christian theology is not based on history, archaeology, and neither is it based on the scripture. 'hat you ill find at the root of Christian theology is 3ree+ philosophy, paganism, racism, and the traditions of men. 4octrines such as the Trinity, (unday 'orship, 5lac+s suffering the curse of 6am,etc. are promoted and taught through theologian seminary colleges. 7n modern time, these particular institutions ha8e become the authority of scriptural understanding. The 9uestion is did the 6ea8enly )ather gi8e them this authority: Psa /1;,0 5ut unto the ic+ed 3od saith, 'hat hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest ta+e my co8enant in thy mouth; Psa /1;,< (eeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my ords behind thee. Psa /1;,= 'hen thou sa est a thief, then thou consentedst ith him, and hast been parta+er ith adulterers. Psa /1;,- Thou gi8est thy mouth to e8il, and thy tongue frameth deceit. Psa /1;>1 Thou sittest and spea+est against thy brother; thou slanderest thine o n mother2s son. 5ut unto the ic+ed 3od saith,; 'ho are the ic+ed according to the 5ible: ic+ed; he co8ereth the faces of the &udges ho are controlling the

?ob -;>. The earth is gi8en into the hand of the thereof; if not, here, and ho is he

7n order to find out ho the ic+ed are, you must first loo+ at the people earth under the direction of (atan. 'ho are these people:

#e8 >;- 7 +no thy or+s, and tribulation, and po8erty, (but thou art rich) and 7 +no the blasphemy of them hich say they are ?e s, and are not, but are the synagogue of (atan. #e8 >;,1 )ear none of those things hich thou shalt suffer; behold, the de8il shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall ha8e tribulation ten days; be thou faithful unto death, and 7 ill gi8e thee a cro n of life. The synagogue of (atan is referring to the #oman po ers of the earth today that are claiming to be ?e s and are not. These are the same people that control and benefit from the prison system and, these are the same ic+ed indi8iduals that are mentioned in Psa. /1;,0. 'hat hast thou to do to declare my statutes; The same people ho are controlling the earth through the po er of (atan are the same people that are o8er the theologian seminary colleges. The %ost 6igh is as+ing these people a genuine 9uestion. 6o can they being the ic+ed try to declare hat the %ost 6igh2s statutes are: 6o can they be the authority of the %ost 6igh2s ord hen they are the synagogue of (atan: @r that thou shouldest ta+e my co8enant in thy mouth; 6o can these people gi8e the understanding on hat the %ost 6igh2s co8enant is ith 6is people: (eeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my ords behind thee; These people hate the instructions of the %ost 6igh hich are 6is la s and commandments. They re&ect the ord of the %ost 6igh and instead deal ith science and sorcery.

'hen thou sa est a thief, then thou consentedst ith him, and hast been parta+er ith adulterers; This is spea+ing about ho the ?e ish po ers along ith the #oman Catholic po ers ( ho are of the same #oman bloodline) ha8e made compacts ith each other along ith the other nations to continue to rob and spoil the same people they claim they are trying to enlighten. This adultery is referring to spiritual adultery. Thou gi8est thy mouth to e8il, and thy tongue frameth deceit; They bring forth lies and deceit ith their mouths hile at the same time claiming to be the people of 3od. Thou sittest and spea+est against thy brother; thou slanderest thine o n mother2s son; The brother of these AdomiteB#oman po ers is ?acob (3en. >/;>/->0, %al. ,;>, @ba. ,;,1). They use e8ery chance they get to defame and criminaliCe their brother ?acob. @ne of the biggest tools they ha8e used to do this is their religious doctrine. These people in no ay can be the bearers of truth. Col >;= 5e are lest any man spoil you through philosophy and 8ain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the orld, and not after Christ. The 5ible arns us of the use of philosophy. Theology is rooted in pure philosophy and 8ain deceit. The %ost 6igh2s ord as not meant to be interpreted by man2s ideas. >Pe ,;>1 Dno ing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any pri8ate interpretation. @ur thoughts and ideas are lies if they are not rooted in the scriptures; ,Pe .;,, 7f any man spea+, let him spea+ as the oracles of 3od; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability hich 3od gi8eth; that 3od in all things may be glorified through ?esus Christ, to hom be praise and dominion for e8er and e8er. "men. #om E;. 3od forbid; yea, let 3od be true, but e8ery man a liar; as it is ritten, That thou mightest be &ustified in thy sayings, and mightest o8ercome hen thou art &udged. The 5ible instead, hen read correctly, interprets itself; ay.
