Bible gives a very beneficial principle when it states “too much
talk” is problematic whereas “anyone who holds his tongue is prudent.” (Proverb
10:19) In harmony with this if Bible had given us just enough verses like this:
“Remember God always and do everything as an offering to Him” (Ecclesiastes
12:1; Colossians 3:17), it could have kept itself invincible.
Instead, it started to speak “too much” which often backfired. For
example,
1) Too much information on a too
less important subject (such as woman’s menstruation) and yet too less
information on too important subject such as creation which comes in just one
sentence: God created “the mankind in His image.” (Genesis 1:27)
2) Jesus was taken to a mountain top
so that he and Satan could see “all the kingdoms of the earth” [which is in
support of flat-earth belief], and Satan tried to tempt Jesus by offering them
all in exchange of an act of worship to him. Such a temptation makes no sense
because “all those kingdoms” were already belonged to God and to Jesus.
(Proverbs 21:1; Daniel 4:17, 25, 35; Jeremiah 27:5-7; Ezekiel 7:24; Romans
13:1, 6; Ps 110:1; Mathew 22:42-45) Further, Jesus was a supernatural person as
he is “the exact representation of God’s very being” (Hebrew 1:3) and “the only
begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father” (John 1:18), hence is able to
perform supernatural feats such as calming the storm, resurrecting the
dead…etc. For such a person to come out victorious over Satan’s temptation
provides no example for the ordinary people like us. [Like chicken find no
example in peregrine falcon’s diving speed of 389 km/h]
3) If all the wonders Jesus
performed were to be written “even the whole world would not have room for the
books that would be written” (John 21:25) Now the question would arise: Why did
the beneficiaries of all the miracles Jesus performed not come in support of
him—not even one person when he was tried under false charges, or at least why
did they not come in support of preaching work even after Jesus’ death? [especially
in view of the fact that even criminals come in support of their human leader
when he is in trouble]
