401: Durant, Will: The Story of Civilization
One could no more discover when myth was originally invented(Will Durant, The Story of Civilization, The Age Of Faith, ch 1, page 16) "Christianity was the last great creation of the ancient pagan world." (The Story of Civilization, Caesar and Christ, Will Durant, Part III, 1944, p. 595) Our comment Durant is universally recognized as a modernist and a secularist. Durant does not exempt Jw's from his comments, in fact he would certainly include them! Notice all the thinks he says the Apostles and early ... Other pagan cultures contributed to the syncretist result. From Egypt came the ideas of a divine trinity, the Last Judgment, and a personal immortality of reward and punishment; from Egypt the adoration of the Mother and Child, and the mystic theosophy that made Neoplatonism and Gnosticism, and obscured the Christian creed; there, too, Christian monasticism would find its exemplars and its source. From Phrygia came the worship of the Great Mother; from Syria the resurrection drama of ... ...

403: The Apostolic Fathers believed in expedient, optional tradition
Sola Scriptura home page Introduction: Expedient man-made tradition that is optional and not a matter of faith, since the apostles were silent about such matters. (Tertullian, The crown or De Corona, ch 3-4) This 4th category of tradition are optional practices usually associated with carrying out specific commands and liturgy that are recorded in scripture. In 200 AD, examples of "expedient tradition" these include giving a person a cup of milk mixed with honey immediately following baptism and then not bathing for a week afterwards. Roman Catholic and Orthodox "Classical Reformation" apologists have a great deal of difficulty explaining why this "oral ... For us, if it is not in the Bible, we don't do it!

If no passage of Scripture has prescribed it, assuredly custom, which without doubt flowed ... ...

And that this was the ancient reading also, the older copies of the LXX in the days of Philo, as well as the series of the reasoning in Josephus himself upon this occasion, does secure us; and both of them do thereby plainly discover that great corruption which the Masorete Hebrew has introduced into our Bible in this place.

The authority is not in the body but in the Head; the ruling is not in the kingdom but in the King; the authority in not in the church but in Christ.

425: Book of Job: Bible textual variants analysed
The single statement of Job's wife in the Masoretic Text might be viewed as "test bait" to "abide within the word of God" that some ancient Hebrew scribe (possibly Ezra) found irresistible and added the words after he "snapped" under the midnight full moon. Perhaps the words of Job's wife were added as part of a Greek pubic theatre play in the margin of the text and later scribes assumed they were part of the autograph. On the other hand, the additional words of Job's wife may be the original and they are removed by the Jews in their great corruption of the Tanakh in 160 AD. In the end we simply do not know why or where the additional words of Job wife ... Of course wife beating is commanded in the Quran and is common in the Islamic world today, even though Imam's in western cultures lie by saying such is not true which causes feminists to embrace Islam as the perfect religion of peace for all women everywhere: The Koran says: "Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made ... ...

The correctness of this view of the chronology seems to be established by the Eusebius-Jerome Chronicle which assigns the outbreak of the war to about 132. Schurer and Kornemanns make the war begin in this year; Schurer gives 130 as the year of its beginning, while Juster's date is 131. But there are not wanting ancient testimony and ...

438: Should Christians "Fast" Today?
Sometimes it was commanded by leaders, sometimes it was voluntary. God's people fasted for many purposes; David, to humble his soul, to entreat God in behalf of his sick son, for his enemies and in mourning for the death of Saul and his sons. In times of great crisis, the children of God usually turned to their Father, confessing their sins, praying and fasting, entreating his favor; and the Scriptures indicate that God usually blessed them. In one case, that of the Nenevites, he even repented and changed his plans for destroying ... One such man used the following schedule for a day of prayer and fasting. 2.
