CHAPTER SIX

The Greatest

Con Artist in the Cult

There is no way that one can rationally explain the phenomenon you have just witnessed. It defies analysis. Surely, no one on this planet could be stupid enough to believe that every writer in the New Testament, who “quoted the LXX,” had to be resurrected 240–260 years after he died in order to “get the job done.” But that is what every Scholarship Onlyism nut must believe if he “buys the goods.” One can see, at a glance, that the whole operation was “by faith without works”—a true Hyper-Dispensational, Sovereign Grace, Calvinistic operation: no works and no evidence—pure “faith.” They all put their faith in an African fairytale for grownups, and then spent 2,000 years (literally) trying to justify their credulity. They spent this time searching haunted houses and graveyards (literally) to locate a ghost who had no more real substance than Haeckel’s “ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny” or a political speech by Slick Willie (Clinton). They believed a lie (2 Thess. 2:11). Having believed it, they LOVED IT (Rev. 22:15).

Someone is in trouble—bad trouble.

Their motive was apparent, although it was neatly disguised with the everlasting “desire to update the language, after recovering the original text, so that it can communicate to the receptor the original intent of the original author, etc.” (All gas bags contain the same propane.) The truth is, they were educated Gentiles, and fancied themselves to be great GREEK scholars (see How to Teach the Original Greek) and great Christian PHILOSOPHERS (Col. 2:8). They all resented God the Holy Ghost producing sixty-six Biblical books without coming to THEM for advice and counseling or even assistance: not one single time. “Salvation is of the Lord” (Jonah 2:9), and the Lord who authored this salvation said, “Salvation is of the JEWS” (John 4:22). The “Gentiles” don’t “figure” one time, anywhere, when it comes to Biblical texts, Biblical wisdom, or Biblical understanding. They just “get the breaks” during the Church Age (Rom. 11:11–23), which is now OVER (1918–1999).

It was Philo (20 B.C.–A.D. 50) who really tried to sell the original fairytale (see pp. 165–168). He was an Alexandrian JEW, but his motive was identical to the Greek, Gentile philosophers who adopted his fairytale. Philo thought that he was a brilliant intellectual (like all modern, apostate Fundamentalists fancy themselves), so he wanted his race to get all the glory, even if Greek scholarship was involved. He knew that his own people (Jews) would not accept any Greek Old Testament unless a Jew (or Jews) produced it. The ideal vehicle for getting this done was The Letter to Aristeas. But as any uneducated fool could see, in one reading of the “Letter,” it was nothing but the day-dreaming thoughts and mind-wandering speculations of an apostate African Jew in Egypt, trying to match wits with the Greek philosophers who had followed Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle (and the Stoics and Epicureans: Acts 17:18–21). The author of “Aristeas” has placed himself on the “Stoa” at Athens and is trying to prove his superiority to the philosophers of those times: 450–200 B.
