|                          CONTRADICTIONS about God

Isn`t this more correctly:    CONFUSION about God? 

|               Christians should all HONESTLY and thoroughly 
|          investigate the CONTRADICTIONS between the Old and New 
|          Testaments in terms of their descriptions of God. 

The method of salvation is the same - it is by faith.  Today we are
justified by faith in what God has done for us through the God-man
Jesus THE Christ.  Abraham was justified by faith not works nor by
the law.  God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.  He even
planned for Jesus to be crucified before foundation of the world.

|               The God of the New Testament is described as a God of 
|          LOVE, MERCY, and PEACE. 
|
|               The god of the Old Testament is described as a JEALOUS, 
|          VENGEFUL god, a WAR-MONGER.  He said "Thou shalt not kill", 

I think God is still jealous - he wants ALL of ourself.

|          and then proceeded to help the Israelites to kill TENS OF 
|          THOUSANDS of Arabs in order to take their land.  [And the 
|          zionist PIG$ from Israel are still doing it today!] 

A hint of hatred - I think I see.

|               Can the two Testaments POSSIBLY be talking about the 
|          same thing?! 

God wants a people that are wholy HOLY - he wants us to follow him
compeletely and not just partially or along with something else.
This is what he has always wanted.

|               The "god" of the Old Testament was actually a TRIBE OF 
|          RENEGADE SPACE CANNIBALS, with a leader named "Yahweh", who 
|          was the commander of a UFO SPACECRAFT ("pillar of fire", 
|          "pillar of cloud", etc.), and a GENETICIST who CLONED Adam 
|          and Eve FROM HIMSELF and put them on this planet which was 
|          ALREADY INHABITED at that time.  And the "first born sons" of 
|          the Israelites became ROAST DINNER for the "JehovahS". 

Whoops, I think you been reading some of those UFO guys books.  Did
they say that the Ark of the Covenant was electrically charged and
sparks emitted from it?

|               All of this may sound UN-believable to most Christians.  
|          But try reading the Old Testament with these things in mind.  
|          For example, read the part about one of the Old Testament 
|          characters, Jacob, I think, WRESTLING WITH GOD, AND WINNING!  
|          [ ALWAYS use the KING JAMES VERSION.  Later versions are PER-
|          VERSIONS! ] 

I understand that prior to the KJV no there were no Bibles, correct? :-)
Oh, I think there were some Greek and Hebrew ones, but I guess they
were corrupt, too.

Anyway, if you read the passage, Gen 32:25, you will see that this one
who wrestled with Jacob just touched Jacob's thigh and it was out of
socket.  Amazing if this one was not God, then he had a lot of power
so that he could just disable one by a touch.

You may also want to note that Jacob means "one who struggles with man"
and at this point his name was changed to Isreal which means "one who
struggles with God."

|               See also the book "THE LOST TRIBES FROM OUTER SPACE", by 
|          Marc Dem, 1974, Bantam Books, Inc.. 

What is the revelation that makes this book authentic?

For Christ and His Kingdom,
