Hidden Meanings of the Bible: It's All About the Mind

by ProdigalSon in

back in bible times, the common literary style was in parables, metaphors, and allegories.

the reason for this is that the spiritual truths they were trying to convey are too abstract and difficult to express in literal terms.

the bible itself says that not a word jesus spoke was literal:.

for anyone out there who might still be able to think, i'm bumping this

Back in Bible Times, the common literary style was in parables, metaphors, and allegories. The reason for this is that the spiritual truths they were trying to convey are too abstract and difficult to express in literal terms.

The Bible itself says that not a word Jesus spoke was literal:

Matthew 13:34 "All these things spoke Jesus to the multitude in parables; and he did not speak without a parable."

The Apostle Paul said that the literal words bring death, but the spirit of the letter gives life:

2 Corinthians 3:6 " He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life."

What is a Jew?

Romans 2:29 (NLT) "No, a true Jew is one whose heart is right with God. And true circumcision is not merely obeying the letter of the law; rather, it is a change of heart produced by God's Spirit. And a person with a changed heart seeks praise from God, not from people. "

Are the lessons in the Bible original, or are they much older? Are they obvious, or are they hidden?

Psalms 78:2 (NLT) " I will speak to you in a parable. I will teach you hidden lessons from our past— stories we have heard and known, stories our ancestors handed down to us."

What is wisdom? How is the Bible to be interpreted?

Proverbs 1:6 (NLT) "...by exploring the meaning in these proverbs and parables, the words of the wise and their riddles."

Paul said that the people who read Moses literally had a veil upon their hearts:

2 Corinthians 3:15, 16 "Yes, even today when they read Moses' writings, their hearts are covered with that veil, and they do not understand. But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away." DEEP MEDITATION IS THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING

THE TEMPLE IS IN YOUR HEAD!

Acts 7:48 "The Most High dwells not in temples made with hands."

Luke 17:21 "The Kingdom of God is within you."

According to Paul, the story of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar is an allegory. This explains how a 90-year old woman can have a child. What Paul writes explicitly says this allegory is among others by saying "which things". How much of the Hebrew Scriptures are about these covenants? This would imply that the entire Old Testament is an allegory.

Galatians 4:24 "These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar."

The Bible has much more to say about the left brain and right brain and the split in our consciousness.

Rolling Stone: Everything Is Rigged: The Biggest Price-Fixing Scandal Ever

The Illuminati were amateurs. The second huge financial scandal of the year reveals the real international conspiracy: There's no price the big banks can't fix

By Matt Taibbi April 25, 2013 1:00 PM ET

Conspiracy theorists of the world, believers in the hidden hands of the Rothschilds and the Masons and the Illuminati, we skeptics owe you an apology. You were right. The players may be a little different, but your basic premise is correct: The world is a rigged game. We found this out in recent months, when a series of related corruption stories spilled out of the financial sector, suggesting the world's largest banks may be fixing the prices of, well, just about everything......

Why People Reject Conspiracy Theories

"On his Infowars.com Web site, Jones headlines his page with “Because There Is a War on for Your Mind.” True enough, which is why science and reason must always prevail over fear and irrationality, and conspiracy mongering traffics in the latter at the expense of the former." - Michael Shermer, "Why People Believe Conspiracy Theories," Scientific American, August 18, 2012.

"The repression and revised imposition of September 11th and the attendant “war on terror” on the public mind have important implications not only for the integrity of public discourse, but also for the collective sanity of western culture and civilization. As crafted by dominant news media 9/11 has become the cracked lens through which we view and conceive of our own history, identity, and purpose. Each act of subverting or evading factual accounts of actually existing events manifests itself as a small fissure in the broader edifice of truth and rationality. So does it also contribute to furthering the designs of broader forces seeking to build a once seemingly pretend brave new world." - Prof. James F. Tracy, "9/11 Truth, Inner Consciousness and the "Public Mind," Global Research, March 18, 2012.

The mocking of conspiracy theories in the American press and Western media is based on the simplistic argument that reason is on the side of the government and officialdom, not on the fringe of society and civilization.

Anti-conspiracy proponents ludicrously claim that conspiracy theorists are prey to paranoia and irrational thinking without explaining their own faulty reasoning. They put a huge emphasis on labels and none on facts. But they're not unique. Apparently, name-calling is enough to win a court case in a 21st century American courtroom.

Let's set aside the mockery and look at the real picture. In the court of world public opinion, 9/11 truth has already won.

The truth is that 9/11 "conspiracy theorists" [read truth-tellers] are not the irrational party in the debate about what happened on 9/11, for the facts of history are on their side and no one with an honest intellect can say otherwise.

Since most people are not persuaded by facts but by fear, they blindly reject the truth about 9/11 and accuse the truth-tellers of being irrational, conspiratorial, and paranoid.

In addition to fear, there are four other reasons why people reject conspiracy theories in a wholesale manner, especially the fact-based claims made by the global 9/11 truth and justice movement. Below I've stated each reason in bold and briefly elaborated on them.

1. Fear. There are many dimensions to how fear blocks people from discovering, accepting, and telling the truth about 9/11.

The first dimension is cosmic. The official story about the most important socio-political event in modern history has been burned into the heart of American culture and Western civilization. America's image of itself is wrapped up with the 9/11 fairy tale. For many, the fear of challenging the authenticity of the story is related to the fear of shaking up the cosmological scenery within one's own mind that has been constructed by political leaders and the television.

The second dimension is social. People have a basic fear; they don't want to be associated with those "crazy conspiracy theorists and their paranoid views." They want to stay within the safety of the tribe, and disowning the most sacred myths of one's tribe goes beyond treachery; it is interpreted as spiritual suicide.

The third dimension is the most obvious one: the fear of death. The government is watching what you say, and read, and it knows what you think and believe. Most people naturally don't want to stick the bullseye on their chest and yell out in the crowd, "I don't belong to you because I reject your lies and fables, now come and get me, punks."

2. Ignorance. Due to the systemic blackout of the evidence showing that the official 9/11 story is a lie, people just don't know. Not only are they ignorant of the facts underlining the case of the global 9/11 truth and justice movement, but they are ignorant that there is even a media blackout.

Of course, the excuse of ignorance is harder to defend in the era of the Internet and new media. A lot of people who reject conspiracy theories are just too lazy to sit down and do the research for themselves.

3. A False Sense of Superiority And A False Sense of Knowledge. The smugness of 9/11 truth deniers is hard to stomach. They actually look down on new information and new knowledge, which is strange to me. I value learning and am always open to new ideas and new ways of seeing the world.

When I came across '9/11: The Road to Tyranny' by Alex Jones in February 2004 I was floored. I remember watching the capture of Saddam on CNN a few months earlier and thinking, "Wow, this Iraq War turned out to be alright, at least the Iraqi people got to see justice served." But the discovery that the 9/11 story was an invented fable turned my goodwill towards the American government to absolute rage.

It was easy for me to rethink the purpose of the war on terror upon seeing the real facts about 9/11 laid out for the first time because I'm not an American so I don't have any emotional stake in what the American government does. Americans are in a much more spiritually difficult place. The sin of 9/11 must be a heavy burden to carry for such a morally minded country and people.

This article is not about judging anyone or any country, but an attempt to understand why people react differently to the same information. Why do some people think they know how the world works and refuse to accept the validity of new worldviews, while others hunger for such awesome discoveries? I know how ignorant I am of the world, of history, and of mankind, so I'm comfortable with letting go of worldviews if the facts don't fit.

4. Collective Brainwashing. The brainwashing of America, Israel, the West, and the world since the false flag September 11 events is definitely one of the biggest reasons why people reject alternative interpretations of 9/11 and the war on terror. The nations of the world are living inside the big lie offered by the grand decoder of reality, who goes by the political name of the United States government. The spiritual name for this false decoder of reality is Satan, otherwise known as the accuser.

People live, breathe, and eat the 9/11 lie. It is a live virus that is inside their bodily organs and their digestive systems. A teaspoon of reason is not enough to treat the spiritual patient.

5. Institutional Silence And Cover-Up. Academic, media, and governmental institutions in the West have all agreed to keep the truth about 9/11 a secret from the American people and the world.

The culture at the top of the top of modern American society and other societies as well operates on a basic principle: "keep your mouth shut, or else."

To learn more about the culture of silence in America's elite institutions, read, "False Flag Terror and Conspiracies of Silence," by Prof. James F. Tracy, and "Codes of Silence and Child Abuse Cover-Ups: The Sick Underbelly of Institutions in the US," by Nathalia Jaramillo.

At the top, secrets are kept, knowledge is guarded, and silence is valued.
