Keys to Kingdom

Someone says, the Bible is the Word of God

If the Bible is the Word of God, then why are there also statements by Satan? Why do we have so many different versions of the Bible?

The Bible contains both the Word that comes from God and that which does not come from God.

The Torah (Law) itself already contains errors, and Christians can find information about this in:

Luke 11 (for BT):

52 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you have taken away the keys of knowledge; you yourselves did not enter in, and you hindered those who were entering

or Matthew 23 (for BT):

13 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you close the kingdom of heaven against men. You yourselves do not enter in, and you do not allow those who are entering to enter

What is it about then? What keys of knowledge? Why do they close?
It is about false teachings, which are also in the Scripture called Holy by Christians, I will skip the fact that each branch defines what is holy. If someone believes in false teachings - they do not enter the Kingdom themselves, holding on to falsehood, and if someone forces these teachings, they do not let them into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Falsehood in the Bible?

Yes, Satan, with God's consent, tempted people so that false teachings would come to the Bible.

You have a clue about this in the Words of the Lord Yeshua (Mt 5 for BT):

17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. 18 For I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth pass away, one jot, one tittle, will by no means pass from the Law until all is fulfilled.

And later the Lord Yeshua says (Mt 5 for BT):

38 You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. 39 But I say to you, do not resist evil. But if someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40 If anyone wants to go to law with you and take your tunic, leave him your cloak too. 41 If someone forces you to go a thousand paces, go two thousand. 42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.

Here some people are already thinking, what is it about? After all, the "law" was abolished, and it was not supposed to be abolished. If you ask a child, it will notice the abolition of the "law", because it is sincere, it is not filled with hypocrisy, it is simple in its perception of the world.

Yes, it was abolished, but not the Law, but something that was never the Law, and got into the Bible as "law".
This is just a hint, as in all of God's teachings, we have hints, those who are from the same fold will read them and understand them.

But let's look at the abolished "law": Lev 24 (from BT):

17 Whoever kills a person will be put to death. 18 Whoever kills an animal will be obligated to make restitution, animal for animal. 19 Whoever injures a neighbor will be punished in the same way in which he was wronged. 20 Fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. In whatever way a person maims his neighbor, in that way he will be maimed. 21 Whoever kills an animal will be obligated to make restitution. Whoever kills a person will be put to death. 22 You will judge both the foreigner and the native alike, for I am the Lord your God!

And now again a clash with reality, because it was not said that "God told you", but "you were told". However, here we have a signature that God said it, so did the Lord Yeshua abolish the Word of God? No, because... He did not come to abolish the Law of God, but He abolished something that never belonged to Him.

Now a more attentive person will reflect and think, but how?
Moses received the Words, but the current teaching was not written down by Moses, but centuries later, hence the words attributed to God that did not come from Him. But this should have been noticed earlier.

In the Law, in the book called "Leviticus" by Christians, it is said (according to BT):
Lev 6:

The Lord further said to Moses: 2 "Command Aaron and his sons this: This is the law concerning the burnt offering: The burnt offering shall be on the hearth, on the altar, all night until the morning, with the fire of the altar burning on it. 3 Then the priest shall put on the linen garment and the linen breeches on the body, and shall take out the ashes from the burnt offering that the fire has consumed on the altar, and shall pour them out beside the altar. 4 Then he shall take off his clothes, put on other garments, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. 5 The fire on the altar shall burn continually—it shall never go out. The priest shall light wood on it every morning, arrange the burnt offering on it, and turn the fat of the peace offerings into smoke on it. 6 The fire on the altar shall burn continually—it shall never go out!

So we see that "God" established the sacrifices, but... reading the writings of the Prophet Jeremiah (for BT):

Jr 7:

21 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat the meat. 22 For when I brought them out of Egypt, I spoke nothing, nor commanded your fathers, concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices. 23 But I gave them this command: Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. Walk in every way that I command you, that it may go well with you.

So God did not establish sacrifices? How is it then?

We see, we have two opposing statements attributed to God. What does this mean? That One of them does not come from God, therefore it is false.

There is much falsehood in the scripture, therefore without knowledge of the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, the help of God, we are not able to recognize what is Truth and what is false, therefore we are going astray.

For this reason, people who analyze the Bible on their own can come to wrong conclusions. The truth is not what we wish for ourselves, because everyone can wish for something different. The truth is One, therefore established from above and revealed by the Lord Yeshua.

The Nazarenes, based on the teachings of the Apostles, reject some of the scriptures, or their fragments, believing them to be false. And knowledge is the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven.
