Objective Biblical Research

One of the lost arts of Christianity and Judaism, has been Objective Bible Study and research. When someone shows an interest in wanting to know and understand the Bible, their preachers are trained to direct them to their church organization's "bible college" or seminary. Many of these people follow the advice of their preacher and spend the next three or four years going to their church organization's (and sometimes the preacher's) favorite institute of higher religious learning.

Every year, thousands of people go to seminaries and bibles colleges desiring to study and learn the Bible. Most go away disappointed after the first year. They walk into class after class only to find that they are being taught the theories and ideas (called theology) of various men and women called theologians. When a student wants "break the mold" and embark on their own research, they are quickly told by their professors that they are "not qualified enough" and should go back to reading and studying the works of the school's pet theologians. If a student continues to embark on their own Bible Research, they are mocked, ridiculed and eventually, they are shown the door. Their desire to know and understand G_d's Word seems dashed for the moment. Anyone who leaves bible college or seminary is automatically ridiculed and treated like they have "left or abandoned God."

What most people do not realize is that the Academic Foundation of most colleges and Universities has collapsed. We have published Dr. Trout's excellent article on the Lack of Academinc Integrity in our Educational System. Most Bible Colleges and Seminaries have fallen into this decay. The latest evidence of this has been the lack of evidence that Barak H. Obama ever attended a class a Columbia University. However, there are other evidences of decay that go back years. Many years after Martin Luther King, Jr., died, it was discovered that he plagiarized (copied and used the works of others without giving them credit for their work) over 60% of his doctoral dissertation. Normally, that would be grounds to revoke your degree, but in the case of Martin Luther King, Jr., they did not feel the need to be so harsh. So much for academic integrity.

What most people don't discover until it is too late is that most church organizations are locked into the Nicolaitane doctrine. This doctrine teaches that the church should be broken into two parts: the divinely ordained leaders and the rest of the people, which are called laity. Under this doctrine, the divinely-ordained clergy provide all the leadership for the church body, while the common people are left to sit in the pew, empty their wallets, and be quiet. Bible study becomes nothing more than sitting in a pew and listening to what the preacher teaches.

The only thing wrong with this church model is that it is not what Jesus ordained or wanted. Twice He stated (Rev. 2:6, 15) that He HATED the doctrine of the Nicolaitans. To begin with, Jesus never advocated any kind of departure from Judaism. He was a reformer who insisted that the Pharisee theory of an "Oral Law" that takes the place of the Torah, the Prophets, and the rest of the Tenach, is totally wrong.

Jesus instead taught that G_d wants to have a relationship with all of humanity. The He wants to lead every person into a full life. But to do that, He said people needed to know the scriptures and the power of G_d. He also told the disciples that after He died and rose from the dead, He would send the Holy Spirit to guide their lives and the lives of those who would choose to follow Him. The Nicolaitane doctrine works to dispose of the scriptures and the power of G_d.

At the Foundation, we are studying the learning the scriptures to learn the truth of G_d and how to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. We hope to have up our Basic Principles Bible Study very soon so that people can learn the Bible on their own and not be dependent upon their preacher. We put up our slide show and interview on the Infinity Code so people can see that the Bible is true and will believe it with all their heart. We have also embarked upon Bible Code Studies, which we feel will fill in the gaps of understanding in the Scriptures.

To deal with the Bible Version Issue, we have published our own study on the subject.

We have other projects going all the time.
