O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched
you???
At Tesco Extra in Sungai Dua, three
"missionaries" led by a Korean woman, came up to Alice and wanted to
deliver their "God the Mother" to her. Alice said, "if you want
to talk about God the Father I will entertain you a bit, but if you want to
talk about God the Mother, please talk to that father there," pointing to
me. I knew what was coming, so I invited them to sit down. The man reluctantly sat
down, but the two women wouldn't. I requested the young man to please show me
where in his bible talks about his Mother God?"
He opened his bilingual Bible (the damned
NIV, and Chinese), and confidently thumbed at Galatians 4:28 - "But the
Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother." (NIV) -
exclaiming, "there you are, it says, God is our Mother."
I was flabbergasted but didn't show it, even
though I have very low tolerance from arrogant stupidity! He kept insisting
that the passage speaks of God the Mother. I asked, "but what is the
mother spoken of here, to what does the pronoun "she" refer?" He
kept repeating, "to God, and she is our Mother" in an aggressive
manner. Poor fellow, he is probably just ignorantly and naively regurgitating
what he has been indoctrinated with!
He asked aggressively, "do you believe
the Bible?" I said, "do you know that the Bible must be rightly
understood and that you have perverted and twisted the simple teaching of that
passage?" I wanted to explain to him the message of the epistle of Paul to
the Galatians but he insisted that I don't even believe in the Bible.
When I suggested that what he is pushing is a
heresy, he got very angry and started accusing me of not believing the Bible,
blah, blah, blah.
I got a bit annoyed and said, "do you
even understand simple English?" Can you please read the few verses before
that verse and tell me what Apostle Paul is saying." He didn't want to,
but stuck to his jammed machine gun!
I told them to leave as I have no pleasure
conversing further with them. They left reluctantly after nearly causing a
scene!
["But the Jerusalem that is above is
free, which is our mother." (kjv)]
The NIV "she" - that's all it takes
to get the minds of ignorant folks off to a tangent, and to come up with their
idea of their Mother God!!!
This is perhaps a symptom of the feminized
Christianity.
Beware, the Mother of Harlots who
aggressively promoted the NIV is roaring and seeking whom she may deceive!
