A NEW Bible!!

[wel_mel_2]

Bismillah: Assalamo Alikum.


Yes that's right, a <b>NEW</b> Bible is out now, however, <b>the game is not new</b>, the "holy" Bble which is considered to be "the word of God" by Christians, is available in <b>thousands + forms</b>, and each one of them is called "<i>God's words</i>" despite the revisions that were made through out the history.

A new publication of the Bible by a Dutch organization could take a lot of the stress out of reading the Holy Book's instructions for contemporary Christians, according to its publisher.
That's because those troublesome verses about justice for the poor, responsibility for the rich to address their neighbors' needs, and all that talk about money, are gone. Not just edited out, cut out.


A report from Assist News Service said the Western Bible Foundation published the book to meet the "growing wish of many churches to be market-oriented and more attractive."

Of course they can cut out verses from the 'holy one' simply because they've got no original text to support today's Bible<b>S</b>. Anyone at anytime can claim that <b>HIS</b> own Bible is the true word of God, but no one can truly prove his claim.

"Jesus was very inspiring for our inner health, but we don't need to take his na?ve remarks about money seriously. He didn't study economics, obviously," said a Mr. De Rijke, the chairman of the foundation, in a news release obtained by ANS.

This is yet another serious claim, "<b>Jesus didn't study economics</b>" means that he was not fit enough to teach people about that field, in other words, <b>God Almighty was not able to reveal to Jesus how to teach people about economy</b>. Amazingly, when God Almighty decides to send His last and final prophet to deliver the message to the whole of man kind, <b>He chooses an illiterate man to REFORM a whole nation</b>, and he was able to challenge the most learned men of his time by Allah's knowledge and guidance. Alhamdulelah.


Now I leave you to read the rest of the article...

"What if all Christians stopped being anxious, for example, and started expecting everything from God? Or gave their possessions to the poor, for that matter. Our economy would be lost," he said.
"The truth is quite the contrary: a strong economy and a healthy work ethic is a gift from God," he said.


The foundation's announcement said that it wanted to "boldly go where no one else has gone before" by eliminating those texts.


"We don't use them anyway! There's no single Christian selling his possessions and giving them to the poor," De Rijke added.


The publication, so far, is available only in Dutch, from the well-known Christian publisher Buijten & Schipperheijn. It has discarded passages of the Ten Commandments, sections of Isaiah, the Proverbs, and the Sermon on the Mount. It contains just holes where the original texts urged "radical" actions around money, justice or affluence.


The publisher has reported that it has sold hundreds in just the first few weeks of availability.


However, the names listed for the officials of the foundation, "De Rijke" and "Fortuijn" give away the joke, which sometimes has produced more anger than humor among Christians.


"De Rijke" means "rich," and "Fortuijn" means "fortune," and the Bible actually is published by Time to Turn, a network of Dutch Christian students "who want to choose a sustainable and just way of life, based on their faith in Jesus Christ."


"They do not believe in a new legalism, or in a utopian state, but in a God who is willing to deliver the world from materialism and injustice. Time to Turn is linked to the international student movement Speak," the announcement said.


There was some surprise at the reaction. Frank Mulder, chairman of Time to Turn, said, "Many Christians accept the Western lifestyle, including the degradation of creation and the injustice of our trade, and they only take the easy parts of the gospel. But it isn't until we publish this gospel with holes, that they get confused!"
