Alexander Okenwa: Misguided Faith – How Churches have twisted the Bible’s true message

“If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what ought to be done remains undone.” This is a quote by Confucius.

In other words, imagine the fact that we (human beings) do not have a means by which we communicate to one another in this world; our human existence on this earth will be meaningless, and progress would be impossible.

Thank God that we do have the means of communicating our thoughts and intents amongst one another, which is the reason why we are Gods on this earth to all other things and beings on this earth.

My name is Alexander Okenwa, and I shall be using online means to explain the Bible in the most accurate way—that is, in ways that nobody has ever done in this world.

I know that the Bible is important to every human person in this world since it is the only book of knowledge that God, Who happens to have created and placed us on this earth as the ambassadorial representatives of His heavenly kingdom and the personal agents of His personal affairs, has written and given to us to serve as the only necessary source of our authentic information and knowledge on this earth.

I have the expertise to explaining the Bible more than any other person(s) in this world because I am the only person that God has given the training on the Bible and the mandate to train and guide other persons in the same Bible.

In this online process, I shall be explaining the Bible from the book of Genesis to the rest of its many books since that is the only way that we can understand Bible in full. I shall be answering questions that any person(s) may ask in the course of this biblical exposition.

No doubt, the all importance of the Bible, as both the creator’s manual, creation’s manual, and only recommended textbook/curriculum for all human beings, cannot be over-emphasized.

The fact that we, all human beings, are born as infants when we first enter this earth means that none of us has come into this world with any knowledge of all sorts; which then means that all the knowledge that we possess in this world is learnt. And they (the necessary pieces of information/knowledge) are learnt from the beings and sources that exist before our entry on to the earth, hence the meaning of the word ‘science’.

In that case, the need for God to have provided us with the Bible as the only necessary source of the information that we do need to live our lives as His ambassadorial representatives and personal agents on the earth.

As such, our success or failure, either in achieving the purposes of our existence on the earth or in failing to achieve the said purposes, depends so much on our accurate understanding of Bible or the lack thereof.

Unfortunately, and sadly, too; our churches, who happen to have translated, interpreted, and taught the Bible in the way that it is today, have, inadvertently, made a huge mess of the entire Bible, especially, in their theology and teachings in it.

Thus, putting the Bible in a bad light as a book of make-believe and making many people to distrust and misunderstand it to this point.

The worst part of the entire mess-of-it is that those members of these churches that have believed and accepted these wrong and false theology and teachings in the Bible are unaware that they have been lied to regarding those points that they have believed and accepted in their churches in the Bible.

Unbeknownst to them, they have used the wrong view of the Bible to have formulated all the theology and doctrines that they have been using to explaining the Bible.

The truth is that the New Testament which our churches have used and are still using to explain the entire Bible is the wrong way to go in understanding, explaining, and teaching the Bible.

Biblical Christianity which is the means or view that our churches are using in explaining the Bible to this day and age is the wrong way to go.

The fact that our churches believe and teach that the New Testament is for the New Testament’s believers and the Old Testament is for the Old Testament’s believers goes to show you and I that our churches have not a holistic view of the Bible, but only a New Testament’s view.

This is the reason why they have emphasized more on the personality of Jesus in their theology and doctrines in the Bible, when they are supposed to emphasize more on God Almighty.

A close view of the New Testament will show that Jesus Christ is the main character in it; however, when one takes a holistic view of the entire Bible, one can see that God Almighty is the main character in it.

The truth is that Jesus Christ is not the author of the the Bible; He features in the Bible as God’s Sacrificial Lamb and only begotten Son, meaning that other than for these two reasons, He (Jesus) would not have appeared in the Bible: thus, meaning that the New Testament is the wrong basis for any meaningful view and analysis of the Bible.

To have a clear and meaningful understanding of the Bible, one must start from the book of Genesis because it is the beginning point of teachings or story of the Bible.
The truth is that our churches have not only disjointed the logical teachings of the Bible but they have also disjointed the logical meaning of the entire contents of the Bible by their use of the New Testament as the beginning point of viewing the Bible.

In conclusion, nobody can deny the all-importance of the Bible as the only viable source of information and knowledge that God has written and given to all His human creations on this earth. Unfortunately, our churches have made many serious mistakes in it, hence, the all-important need for me to present an accurate explanation and understanding of the entire text.

Thus, showing that biblical language is correct and that it means what it says on its pages and says what it means by the terms of its language.
