Hey, everybody.
Today we're debating whether or not Christianity is a deception.
And we are starting right now with Adam's opening statement.
Thanks so much for being with us, Adam.
The floor is all yours.
Thank you.
I am Adam Green.
I've been making videos online at No More News since 2014, focusing on the Judeo-Christian religions and politics.
I cover news, do deep research presentations, documentaries, compilations, interviews, and debates.
I've been watching modern day debates for many years.
Very happy to be here.
It's my maiden voyage.
So thank you, James, and good to meet you, Stuart.
The topic is Christianity a deception.
The way I look at it, if Christianity is not true, which it's not, then it's false.
If Christianity is false, then Christians are deceived into a falsehood.
If Christians are deceived, then Christianity is a deception.
The Bible is the most successful deception of all time.
Half the world believes in the God of Abraham.
For 2,000 years, it has dominated history more than any other thing.
Jesus is the most influential character in history.
Even our dating, 2023, in the quote, year of our Lord, is based on the supposed virgin birth of the Son of God, the Torah Moshiach.
The Bible is the most printed book of all time, the most influential book of all time.
It's the greatest story ever told, and it's the biggest con ever sold.
Christianity is deception of religious conquest and theological warfare.
In the Bible, Yahweh and his chosen people, his quote, nation of priests, have a special divine role to be a light unto the nations.
And the ultimate goal is to have the whole world worship the God of Israel from Zion.
Yahweh is a jealous God who wants the whole world to worship and fear him.
He aims to eradicate, quote, idol worship, which essentially means to conquer all other religions and cultures and have a one world religion, one world government ruled by the Torah Messiah from Zion, according to the divine plan of God, the script, the scriptures laid out by the prophets.
During the debate, we had tech issues and a little bit of my opening statement was lost.
I'm going to repeat that now, pick up where I left off.
Christianity is a deception of religious conquest and theological warfare.
Using religious propaganda and psychological manipulation, the nations were coerced into worshiping the God of Israel.
Another way that Christianity is a deception is it's a prophecy deception.
The contrived myth of the fictional Jesus story was fabricated from quote mining the Old Testament scriptures, books like Isaiah, Psalm, Zechariah, Daniel, and Wisdom of Solomon.
From a few verses in a few books, the core of the Jesus myth can be derived and was derived.
Many academics argue that there was a historical Jesus who was a rabbi with a small following.
And after he was crucified by the Romans, his followers searched for prophecies to prove he was the Messiah.
However, all the evidence indicates that, in fact, it was the scriptures that were the source and inspiration for the whole Jesus narrative to begin with.
The scriptures, oftentimes quoting from the Greek Septuagint, are the source material that was, quote, mined to fabricate a heavenly Redeemer Jesus, who was later written into and portrayed as historical.
The Jesus deception is fake prophecy fulfillment.
It's rewritten Old Testament stories of Moses, Isaac, Joseph, Elisha, Jonah, and many more biblical messianic archetypes and motifs that were incorporated into the narrative of the fictional Jesus character.
It was the norm in ancient times that Israelites would scour the scriptures searching for clues and mysteries about the redemption and the Messiah.
They're reading the Old Testament scriptures esoterically in Pesher style, midrashic style, basically creating fanfiction, prophecy-fulfilling myths that were revealed from the scriptures.
The Jesus character, as portrayed in the Bible, certainly did not exist.
The creators of the Christian deception were frauds in the sense that the gospels are a prophecy-fulfilling literary construct.
They report things that did not happen.
Christianity is a fraud and deception because it's predicated on the Old Testament, which is clearly non-historic, non-historical mythologies and legends.
Is it more likely that the laws of nature were broken with all the purported miracles of the Bible, or that some ancient Israelites fabricated these stories?
Given that we know that people lie all the time, we know religiously motivated myth-making was the norm back then, but there's no legitimate evidence of miracles or breaking of the laws of physics.
The naturalistic, realistic, common sense, Occam's razor, far more likely explanation that everybody would have to admit that is that the plausibility that the likelihood that these are myths.
Saint Paul, the real founder of Christianity, as we know it, was Saul the Pharisee.
He was well-versed in the Old Testament.
He knew the prophecy agenda expressed throughout the Torah that the nations would be essentially conquered by the Messiah and would worship the God of Israel.
He quotes, Paul quotes how Jesus would bring, quote, obedient and judgment to the Gentiles.
He would, quote, rule like a rod of iron in the land of thine enemies.
That's the Gentile nations.
He would reign over the gents, quote, reign over the Gentiles and make them his footstool.
The rule and purpose of the Torah Messiah was to conquer the nations, and the Jesus myth undoubtedly accomplished this through Christianity and Islam.
This is the consensus view in Orthodox Judaism.
They believe Christianity and Islam, the religions of Esau and Ishmael, are no accident, but fulfilling God's divine plan, fulfilling prophecy, eradicating the idol worship, and preparing the world for the messianic age, like the top rabbi in Judaism, Maimonides, said.
Paul was either self-deceived, delusional, or intentionally deceiving when he became the, quote, apostle to the Gentiles, targeting the Gentile world for conversion to Torah messianism.
He wanted the God of Israel fearing Gentiles, God-fearing, and basically following the Noahide commandments.
Paul wanted the Gentiles to worship Yahweh according to the prophecies, but not by circumcising and not by observing the mitzvahs and not by becoming Jews themselves, but being a separate religion because the holy seed must of the descendants of Jacob must be kept separate from the chosen and the not chosen.
Of the 27 books in the New Testament, half of those letters are attributed to Paul, but according to scholars, only half of those are actually written by Paul.
The rest are essentially forgeries.
We have no originals of any of these.
And they, of course, come from before the gospels, but still decades after the supposed events.
Paul never claimed to have met Jesus.
He only supposedly appeared to him in visions and revelations, the road to Damascus, which are not in any of the epistles, only later in Acts.
And so he saw Jesus in Revelations and in the scriptures.
It's a very common theme throughout the New Testament that to fulfill the scriptures or as the prophet says, it makes it almost obvious that this is what they're doing is making a new myth from the old myths artificially fulfilling these prophecies and the gospels are expanding on Paul's epistles, which came first, expanding on a guy that never even knew Jesus.
We have no extra biblical contemporary eyewitnesses documentation of Jesus.
They'll throw out Josephus.
They'll throw out Tacitus.
None of that proves Jesus.
They weren't even born when Jesus supposedly died.
It's 60 to 80 years after the supposed death of Jesus.
And so there's a silence there.
It's very inconvenient to have such a huge silence for the Son of God walking on earth to have such little proof.
And it's extra inconvenient is that there's also a huge silence from Paul, who wrote basically nothing about the biographical details of Jesus.
Paul had disputes with the other apostles who supposedly knew Jesus.
It's inexplicable that a man who never met Jesus had any authority on these contentious doctrinal issues, let alone Pauline theology was most influential and half of the New Testament is from Paul.
And suspicious that we only have all these early documents from Paul.
Where are all the other apostles in their letters?
Paul says, have I not also seen the Lord?
That implies the idea that the other apostles were just seeing Jesus, reading him out of the scriptures as Paul did.
Otherwise, he would have no authority over these disagreements that they were having.
And Christians are deceived into thinking they must, let me think about this, deceived into thinking that they must believe in the God of Israel, the power of Hebrew prophecies, and the scapegoat blood magic atonement ritual, sacrifice, and resurrection of Jesus, the Son of God, who had to die for our sins because Adam and Eve were tempted by a serpent.
Believe all that, or else you go to hell for eternity.
That's a deception.
Christians are deceived into believing in an ancient mythological superhero who was born a virgin, performed countless impossible miracles, and will one day return from heaven in a blazing glory on a cloud, riding a white horse with a sword and a blood-soaked robe and a bunch of angels.
All of this is clearly not true and thus a deception.
