Bart has written a new book on Revelation, titled "Armageddon - What the Bible Really Says about the End". In it, he examines the least-read and most-misunderstood book of the Bible. It will be out in late March, but you can pre-order here: https://bit.ly/armgddn. Pre-orders really help drive publicity, so if you're interested in the subject (and why wouldn't you be? It's The. End. Of. The. World!), get it now while it's hot!

____________________________
Revelation is the least read and most misunderstood book of the New Testament. Many readers wonder why it is in there at all. In this episode we consider the debates about Revelation in the early Church, seeing why numerous church leaders found it offensive (for reasons modern readers would not expect) and why eventually it came to be included in the canon anyway.

-Martin Luther had difficulty understanding Revelation as part of the NT - he certainly wasn’t the first person to have that struggle. How was the book received among early Christians?

Megan asks Bart:

-Do we have records of what people thought about it before the canon was finalized?

-Were early Christians more concerned about the graphic violence in the book, or about the heavily materialistic nature of the kingdom of heaven?

-Revelation was ultimately accepted as scripture. What was it that led Christian leaders to overlook its challenges and include it in the NT?

-Revelation seems to have enjoyed something of a renaissance in recent decades, with the rise of prophecy writers and popular media like the Left Behind books and movies. Has Revelation always been this popular, or is it a peculiarity of modern times?

With this topic in the media so much these days, we wanted to share the view from the other side.

I answered this question on Quora: https://www.quora.com/Why-were....-the-gnostic-books-r My video answer to the question: Why Were The Gnostic Books Removed From The Official Bible?

“Speech extract from "Jesus: His Religion" by Alan Watts, courtesy of https://alanwatts.org”
This summarised lecture by Alan Watts is from the Alan Watts Library at https://alanwatts.org.

The image of Jesus is owned by the church traditions and authorities. He has been moulded to fit the interests of the church patriarchs for centuries, so much so that the prevailing image of Jesus is now so far removed from what he truly represented.
Namely an energy from the future who came to earth to bring illumination and knowledge to humanity.

The reason why the Jesus/Jeshua personality came to earth was to create an opening or doorway to a different state of consciousness.
He wanted to set an example of the possibilities that are available to each human being. He wanted to hold up a mirror to human beings and remind them of their own divine origin and the dormant potentials they carried within.
The potentials for peace, freedom and mastership over oneself.

@SentinelApologetics comes on The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Podcast. Although he is quite nice on our show, he does show a different face elsewhere. Wallah (I swear to God) I want good for him and I want him to see the Light of Islam. But I have to point out the inconsistencies he made on the show. Allah guide him and us all.

The greatest search a person can do is it seek purpose - to seek God. Thankfully, The Creator has given us all a purpose on this earth. IT is CLEAR and attainable for every person.

In this video, we'll overview the Apocrypha: texts that were left out of the Bible. From the Old Testament: Enoch, Jubilees, Bel and the Dragon; to the New Testament: The Gospel of Judas, Mary and Thomas. For one reason or another, these texts were excluded from Biblical Canon.

Now, this is not an exhaustive list. There are many, MANY, books in the Apocrypha. We're really just at the tip of the iceberg and sampling some of the most prominent texts. This is just an introduction after all. I'd love to go into more detail into these books such as Enoch and the Gospel of Judas. Let me know what you'd like to see in the comments below.

This video marks the start of Season II. Thank you for your patience, I can't wait to surprise you with more obscure topics that deserve more attention...

Frank is often asked the question: “What books should be in the Bible?” which leads to other questions like, “The Roman Catholics and Protestants have different books in their Bibles; why?” It is important that we know how we got our Bible and why some books were rejected. Even though some books did not make it into the Biblical canon, does that mean they hold no value? Frank explains the answer to these three questions here. Check it out!

Most Christians don’t learn anything about the earliest Christian history.
Those who do, typically learn a canned narrative telling you how the church of popes and martyrs won out against external enemies (called “pagans”) and internal enemies (called “heretics”).

It’s time to stop ignoring the creators of early Christianity. It’s time to stop
marginalizing figures whose life and thought is so helpful for developing an authentic and philosophically-informed spirituality today. It’s time to embrace the heretics as the true fathers and mothers of a spiritual assembly. If Jesus spoke to the poor and the outcast, he spoke to heretics.

What united these figures? One simple thing: gnosis. Gnosis is not
information, it is deep knowledge, redeeming knowledge, transformative
learning. Christians who preached secret knowledge were called gnostics. In some cases, they called themselves gnostics. In others, they were called gnostics by their enemies.

A gnostic is a knower—a person who takes faith and transmutes it into spiritual knowledge. They stated reasons for their faith, and spoke in terms that transcended normal rationality. They were not afraid to speak against the majority, or to be countercultural. In being disruptive and radical, they followed the pattern set by Jesus himself.
