“WHAT IS THE CATCHPHRASE FOR CLUELESS CHRISTIANS?”

“The originals …”

Dear Reader, when you hear someone say “the originals”, you are at liberty to go up … and with a big, fat, black felt pen … write the intitials “CC” on their foreheads … thereby setting them loose to enjoy their Cain-ish freedom (Genesis 4:15-16). 

When Christians are caught out with a lack of Bible understanding in various departments, how often have you heard them say “Well, the originals say this …” or “According to the originals … “ and so on.

Yes Dear Reader, these are your saved, fundamentalist Pastor, Preacher, Evangelist, Missionary, Deacon, Bible Teacher, Bishop or Sunday School Teacher, who claim that the Bible was his or her final authority on all matters of faith and practice … but then plead their case to a pile of unseen, unread, unheard of lost papers! 

Dear Reader, are these people two-faced lying hypocrites? 

Dear Reader, we are reminded of the verse …

“But the NATURAL man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14).

And so Dear Reader, here we have the description of the aforementioned Christian fundamentalists.

“But … but … but …” comes the chorus from the peanut gallery “the Corinthian verse applies only to the unsaved!”

And here’s the case in point … not able to compare spiritual with spiritual … indeed … and not listening to the teaching of the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthians 2:13), the fundamentalist ignores the word “natural” and substitutes the word “unsaved”.

His spiritual blindness has him read the verse as …

“But the UNSAVED man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14).

But Dear Reader, the definition of the “natural” man refers to the flesh and not the state of the soul as follows …

“And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.” (Deuteronomy 34:7) … his physical flesh.

and again …

“It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.” (1 Corinthians 15:44)

Hardly cognizant of the Colossian verse of chapter eleven verse two, the Christian fundamentalist ignores the fact that his flesh overrides his listening to the Holy Ghost and spiritual discernment … and if this is pointed out to him … he borders on the hysterical … indeed … conniption.  

“The originals” fundamentalist has no Bible, never seen the Bible, never heard the Bible nor any Holy scriptures (Romans 1:2), as his Bible is not available down here on earth.  

Why? It’s up in the third heaven somewhere.

By saying that his final authority is the book, that he is holding up in the pulpit, he makes himself a two-faced lying hypocrite.

What this lying deceiver is actually saying is This Book I am holding up here in my hand, mimics … and might be similar to … a nonexistent and invisible Book that has been settled forever in heaven (Psalm 119:89).

His final authority is about as solid as cone of fairy floss that has been left out in the fifty degree heat of Death Valley for six months.

The Christian Fundamentalist, sprouting the phrase “the originals”, is indeed the Christian natural man that “… receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God … they are foolishness unto him … neither can he know them they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14).
