How the Holy Bible Was Changed

Are you aware of how the Holy Bible came about? First it was not
written during the time that Jesus preached the Gospel. These were
memories of events for the disciples YEARS later. There is speculation
that several of the Gospels may have been written by disciples of the
disciples! As you know with storytelling the so called FACTS get lost
in the retelling many times. I have no problems with the miracles that
are attributed to Jesus.

Are you further aware that CENTURIES later monks began to copy the
scriptures of both the Old and New Testament and numerous times have
embellished them? I have a deceased friend, Bill Thaw, who was the
co-founder of the very popular EST teachings of the mid 70s that has
transformed into the Forum. Well Bill was a very gifted genius who was
able to go to the Vatican and see numerous copies of the ancient
manuscripts. As he was studied the New Testament he noted that there
had been numerous changes between them. For instance, Bill told me
that one manuscript that was older would never have the words "if it
be thy will" as related to healing and the following edition would
have had those words added by the monk copying the previous manuscript
supposedly word for word!

So to say these are literally the Words of God is too definitely
stretch it! The essence of the scripture is the Words of God. This
would refer to say the essence of the Lord's Prayer but definitely not
the actual words of Jesus!

The only way we will ever have the words of the Master will be when we
find His dairy which I think exists and is tied to the Knights
Templar!
