“The temple of the most high begins with the body which houses our life, the essence of our existence. Africans are in bondage today because they approach spirituality through religion provided by foreign invaders and conquerors. We must stop confusing religion and spirituality. Religion is a set of rules, regulations and rituals created by humans, which was suppose to help people grow spiritually. Due to human imperfection religion has become corrupt, political, divisive and a tool for power struggle. Spirituality is not theology or ideology. It is simply a way of life, pure and original as was given by the Most High of Creation. Spirituality is a network linking us to the Most High, the universe, and each other…”

The Apocryphal books are heavy, dense, condensed, and concentrated.

Fear God, and you don't have to fear anything, much less satan.

Religion is a scam.
Jesus is a European.
Holy spirit is an imagination.
God is a spirit, God is unknown, as we live life we just try to know him.

It can only mean u lack comprehension.

There's nothing strange or confusing bout what I've been saying.

the Jesus story is a European story. Go to Israel, he doesn't exist there. Israelites are not Christians.

Reasons why the apocrypha does not belong in the Bible

Jesus, the apostles, the Jews and the early church all rejected the books in the Apocrypha as being inspired books on the same level of scripture.

https://carm.org/reasons-why-apocrypha-does-not-belong-bible

Catholics and Protestants disagree regarding the exact number of books that belong in the Old Testament Scriptures. The dispute between them is over seven books, part of what is known as the Apocrypha: 1 and 2 Maccabees, Sirach (Ecclesiasticus), Wisdom (Wisdom of Solomon), Baruch, Tobit, Judith, and additions to Daniel and Esther.1 However, there are a number of reasons why the Old Testament Apocrypha should not be part of the Canon or standard writings of Scripture. - Ryan Turner

the books are good for reading but are never part of the CANON and Jesus Christ never quoted from them cool

Did Jesus quote anything from "Genesis"? Does that mean that Genesis should not be a part of the Canon? shocked

Why should Jesus quoted from the book Revelation why He Himself He's in it, even given instructions
Re: Reasons Why The Apocrypha Does Not Belong In The Bible by Wilgrea7(m): 6:59pm On Aug 01, 2017
OLAADEGBU:


The Apocrypha is not in the Bible because Jesus, the apostles and the Jews did not accept it nor did the early church. In addition, it contains false teachings.

which apostles? and using the Jews as a basis of judgement is wrong... the jews reject the new testament.. does that make it wrong?... books are accepted and rejected for different reasons.. the book of Enoch was once accepted.. the revelation of john was once rejected.. it depends on the council

So as Jesus did not quote from Revelation, does it make Revelation any less relevant? Therefore, if Jesus did not quote from Apocrypha, why should that fact render Apocrypha irrelevant? Huh?

Thanking you.

Jesus was part of the book of Revelations eg. Rev 1:8, 1:17, 1:18 etc.
