Should I read the Bible? Why should I read the Bible?
>>533919714you shouldnt, even if youre a christianthe gospel is spread out so much, that you probably know all of it anyway.
If you're serious, start with John.
Use grok tooI am not a Christian, I am a friend of Freyja and an amusement object owned by Jennifer Psaki
>>533919818I'm not serious at all - where should I start?
>>533919714That's a KJV, not a bible. Pic related is a Holy Bible and an English Translation thereof. The Bible was created at the 2nd council of Rome in the 3rd century. It did not suddenly pop into being because some king needed to consolidate power over a thousand years later.
>>533919714Because your eternal soul depends on your belief of the death burial and ressurrection of Jesus Christ Read the Gospel of John in the KJV listen to the case Jesus makes and decide for yourself
The Bible is an evil book. It's like the necronomicon. Everytime you open it, evil spirits come out to play.

>>533920012Genesis. Then you learn the Mosaic law of sacrifice. You can't understand the the Crucifixion of the Lord and what it means unless you read the OT first. These prots... Some prots believe Christ died so they can sin. Some prots believe that the resurrection is more important than the sacrifice. They don't get it, and without the context of the Old Testament, you won't either.
>>533920106Even Catholics don't read the Vulgate anymore, retard.>>533920144Newer translations are better for beginners, like the ESV.

It's very useful for political science purposesA few days ago a redditor made me pay attention how christians celebrate the criminal and ignore normal peopleIt's interesting to analyze how these writing go and their effects and truthfulness, and for political science ends
>>533920012the book of revelation, it's cool>MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTHand has all the armageddon stuff in as well
>>533919714If you have any doubts that there's even a chance Cheistcuckery is true you should read it.Reading the Bible independently is the leading cause of not believing in Christianity.It's all Jews bitching and having jew arguments and obvious retardation
I read it cover to cover. Took over a year.It got into this pattern where something would happen in my day to day life, and the next time I read the Bible that exact subject got mentioned. Again and again and again. It was fucking crazy. How do atheists even exist?
>>533919714>Should I read the Bible?No. It's just neoplatonism dressed in Jewish mythology.
>>5339197141. No2. If you're a Jewish cocksucker who loves to LARP as Jewish

>>533919714Its the most widely printed book ever published. More copies than any other book ever made. Seems like its worth reading even if you aren’t Christian.
Just stream the audiobook "Johnny Cash Reads The New Testament" he has a nice voice.
if you're going to read the bible, read the historical context alongside so you understand wtf is actually going on

>>533921374Pitty then that most people who preach the bible have either corrupted it or use verse out of context for their own agendas.I blame Evangelicals and Jews.

>>533919714read the king james version, it is a faithful translation based on the textus receptus as for why you should read the Bible, even if you are not a Christian it will give you insight on how half the population of the world thinks
>>533919714It a compilation of books? Probably not all the bible but there is a ton of stuff that's important to check.
>>533919714Yes, but you have to pair it with the exegetical texts from Origen, Didymus, Evagrius and the like. No one can just read the Bible and understand it unassisted, and the people who think that they did are all heretics.
>>533920298>muh protsI encourage you to read Ezekiel and Jeremiah and then reflect about praying to mary.
>>533922819If you want a commentary, Martin Luther and Charles Spurgeon's commentaries are free.
>>533919714yes, know your enemybeyond that there is some fun to be had, it's a really fucked up book, it gets wacky in places
>>533919714>Should I read the Bible?Yes>>533919714>Why should I read the Bible?If you wanna know the enormeous contradictions. The bible is a book badly translated hundreds of times.
>>533920491>It got into this pattern where something would happen in my day to day life, and the next time I read the Bible that exact subject got mentioned.The same thing happens to me with the internet and pop media. I'll think of a word or a phrase -seemingly out of nowhere - and generally it will show up on the screen. Last week it was Jiminy Cricket and Pay Phone. I'm sure it's demonic. Just letting (you guys) know.
>>533921472>Its the most widely printed book ever published. More copies than any other book ever made.Same thing with chink and pajeet populations - doen't make it good.
>>533922819>No one can just read the Bible and understand it unassisted, and the people who think that they did are all heretics.Muh dogmas of faith. Retard
>>533921666>if you're going to read the bible, read the historical context alongside so you understand wtf is actually going onCheck 'em. But life is so brief. Just connect with God, The Creator and your Nature and be done with it and move on with your life.
>>533924543>If you wanna know the enormeous contradictions. The bible is a book badly translated hundreds of times.The Enuma Elish, scribed on clay tablets 4000 years before the bible, has had 0 edits. The old testament plagiarized the Enuma Elish.

>>533919714Medieval people compiled a bunch of manuscripts and middle-eastern mythology into a book the church and monarchy could use to control the lives of medieval peasants. There's your summary. Saved you time that you can use to learn something science-related.
>>533919714Dont read the bible and dont become a christian. Its too late. If you didnt give your life to Jesus during the covid plandemic its too late, the vaccine was the mark of the beast + the noseswabAnd God is a dick, I met him and I hated being a christianSins that lead to hell>Video games>watching tv shows>listening to normal music>Being friends with vaccinated people>Being attached to nonchristian family membersalso 50000000k denominations and they cant agree on anything, you will become schizophrenic trying to sift through all the liesall pork eaters go to hellall sabbath breakers go to hell
>>533922819Born again people with the Holy Spirit are not unassisted, and origen cut his own balls off and all church fathers was heretics>muh apostolic churchYou do pagan tree christmas which leads to hell and you eat pork which leads to hell
>>533924579I think that is Cybernetics. I've encountered the same thing online.
>>533919714No point paddy, you're probably too dumb to understand it.
>>533919714Get a copy of old Greek New Testament and translate it with the tlg You’ll see the problem for yourself
>>533919714I picked up the Bible about a year ago as someone who never read it other than a couple times when I was brought to church growing up for several occasions. The New Testament is very moving and kept me reading. Real or not, Jesus is based and only demon-possessed retards have any issue with what he's shilling. What really got me hooked was the historical preface on the NT. Im big on Roman history, and the first sentence in the preface was>In the time of Emperor Augustus, a small nation called Israel languished under Roman rule. The historical context was a fascinating aspect, and as your read, the gospels are in a way a first/second person account of those times. Even if you aren't religious, there is an based educational aspect to the NT as well
>>533919714I will just say this because I know they are either here, or they will see this. The luciferians still have a chance. There IS a way out. There is no power greater than the power of God, and I am talking about he who sits on the throne in heaven. Remember, nothing is free. There is always a price to pay. Losing your soul is far worse than losing your wealth. As for lucifer, the Lord rebuke thee.
>>533925341>you eat pork which leads to hellYou're worse than a kike, you're a kike wannabe
>>533919714Yes, because you value life and your soul.
>>533925558Jesus didn't eat pork, and neither did the apostles. And Jesus will kill all pork eaters on his 2nd coming, he compares you to people who eat mice.Isaiah 66:15-17King James Version>15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.>16 For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many.>17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.You are genderconfused because you you call Jesus based but dont realize he was a jew
>>533919714Read Parmenides by Plato first, then the New Testament, follow by the Old Testament
>>533919714If youre interested why wouldnt you read it?Read anything youre curious about.Best online bible app is bibleOS.netIt has multiple translations you can look at the same time for comparison and a search function for books and stuff.
>>533925708Yah nah, the OT was full of demon worshipping kikes who got shit wrong, which is why Acts clarifies>Yah forget those old kikes, my new based kike Paul will set the record straight that "you shall not call unclean what I have made clean"Sorry lil kike bro, God made pigs delicious for a reason. But you can continue following synogage of Satan retcons
>>533925182>learn something science-related.The other bullshit religion. They got you boxed in, ése.
>>533925708Yes, we are not to eat pork, and if you think about it, it makes perfect sense. So, what type of flesh is used in scientific experiments for comparison to human flesh? Seriously... what is it? That's exactly right! It's pork. It is almost on the same level as cannibalism. Not to mention, swine are very unclean. Now, after Christ died, this changed a lot of things. Don't get me wrong. The Old Testament is just as important, but Christ died so that we may live. Christ made it possible for men to have salvation in the year 2026.
>1pbtIDkike bot post
>>533920012There’s wisdom in there even if you don’t buy into the whole “covenant with the Jews” thing. Proverbs are interesting, Ecclesiastes was the crankiest rabbi ever but not necessarily wrong, that sort of thing. The gospels are beautiful from a literary standpoint, everything written after by Saul/Paul (“I never met Jesus but let me tell you about him”) is highly suspect imo.
>>533919714Why not? There's wars, incest, murder, betrayal, genocide. Perpetual murder of jews. It's a great read. Also spoiler alert God wins and we get saved and live forever.
>>533925969I've stumbled upon an interesting rabbit hole of atheist cringe on YouTube. Multiverses, living forever via consciousness transplanting, how AI will create peace (heaven) on earth, etc. It's another great example how people almost never truly give up religion, they always fill the void with something.
>>533925969>science is a religion brainlet.
>>533926332The experts are smiling down on me, anon. Can you say the same?
>>533919714>Should I read the Bible?Yes>Why should I read the Bible?So you learn how the Jews tricked Europeans to become christgolems.Know your enemy.Know their tricks.

The bible is the most influential book ever written. You owe it to yourself to give it a read, regardless of your views of Christianity and religion in general.
if you aren't christian don't bother. it's a boring read
>>533926372where do you get your knowledge from, anon?
>>533926277That begs the question. "Why?" So, we are genetically prone to certain things correct? Well, we are also genetically prone to seek out a higher power. In addition, if you are a fan of horror movies, then what makes them scary? Especially if you are an atheist. After all, if you believe such things do not exist, then why be scared at all? What is it in our being that tells us "this is bad?"There is a realm of things that are unseen. Even science has proven this right? If you want to go that far, gravity is unseen. We only know it exists because larger objects attract smaller ones. Do we know what it is? Can we take a picture of gravity with our smartphones? Can you analyze a teaspoon of gravity? Gravity alone is proof that a force exists that is not seen. Isaac Newton showed us this. So, the "why" questions never seem to get a definitive answer. Why are bad things bad? Why are good things good? You can say "human evolution." Okay, but that still has a cause in itself. What caused us to evolve and understand that bad things are bad?
>>533926534Im not a Christian. It's a great read. I will meet you halfway and agree that if you're a destitute retard incapable of spirituality or love, then the Bible might be boring to you
>>533919714Read the NT first, then the OT but with patristic commentary on the side. If you read the OT first it really just reads as a jewish supremacist text, that's why protestants behave the way they do.
No. It makes people go crazy.
You aren't supposed to read it. Have a priest explain it to you. Otherwise you'll read how David collected hundreds of prepuces to get married
>>533919714As a devout catholic, you are not allowed to read the bible. Your priest is only entitled to interpret the bible.
>>533926824I'll meet you on the other half and agree that you've barely dipped your toes into spirituality or spiritual love if you found it in the bible. it's a wild read, for sure, there's lots of violence, debauchery, and hate disguised as love. perfect for a brainlet who is easily fooled.
>>533927113>Have a priest explain it to youThis. Only protestants read the bible themselves.
>>533927126I feel bad for people like you deceived into following satan. I pray that you gain the wisdom to read for yourself and seek Jesus Christ for salvation and not men.
>>533927224Nah, I was always godfearing. The Bible didn't make me godfearing. But it still is a invaluable book. It's distilled wisdom of our ancestors and patriarchs, and it reinforces alot of what I deduced. But it's also been fucked up permanently by the synogage of Satan (OT) and fake believes (NT)
>>533926332>brainlet.Youngster.
>>533927785>godfearingnot what I said, and you're fucked up by the "synogague of satan" yourself by the way you talk.

>>533919714If you read the KJV it’s very poetic and the whole bible is essentially an epic love story between God and mankind. Even if you don’t believe in the bible there is no denying it’s one of the greatest collections of literature.

>>533927224>there's lots of violence, debauchery, and hate disguised as loveThe Bible is fucking tame compared to history. Roman Legionaires were raping civilians during peace time. First Egyptian Dynasty was butchering people to bury them with the Pharaoh (one got killed like an entire city district of his times), to ensure he would have servants in the afterlife. Even in XX century Imperial Japan sanctioned sex slavery for its soldiers.Anyway, the Bible has inspired first public hospitals in Greece in Rome. If you read it and don't understand why I think you are projecting your own debauchery
>>533928494CHILD RAPING NIGGER IS OF 0 WORTH AND YOU ARE WORTHLESS FOR LYING ABOUT HIMHE IS A CHILD RAPING NIGGER NOT A GOD
Honestly? If you are really interested then take the Bible and at least a commentary of it, I think there is a free commentary of Cornelius A Lapide online, and use that alongside it otherwise you'll come out of it with half understanding, people have no idea the amount of work and study that goes into reading and interpret an old text, from an older culture, language and metaphysical understanding of the world.But it's probably the most important text in western culture, it's like Plato for philosophy, everything is downstream from Bible, pro and contra it.
>>533919714Who cares if you do or don't? That's the real truth. Oh you thought a mocker couldn't be mocked? Well not only will I mock and mogg you with my $1000 bible, I'll directly challenge you spiritually this morning with the heart of Elijah. Oof, you thought it was "just the internet".

>>533919818I started with Ephesians. It is six chapters; quick read that is not heavy in deep theology like you'd find in the first 10 chapters of Romans. Eph 1 thematically talks about how it was God who stretched out his hand toward us, and not the other way around. NKJV is fine but pairing with a companion NLV/NIV might help color in the meanings; or, you can use to give the actual Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek to English syntax. It is important to understand the intentions in God's wordings. Too many heretics misquote the Bible. It is imperative you read on your own and understand. https://www.blueletterbible.org/
