'Born-Again' is the latest cult among the Christians. Billy Graham claims that there are 70 million such cultists in America. Immaculate people, veritable angels! Yet in that nation over a quarter million 'gays' gathered in San Fransisco last June on a pilgrimage, led by 50 lesbians on motorbikes. In New York, there are only one million more women than men and of the 'men' it is said that one third are sodomites! Overall there are 10 million 'problem drinkers' (meaning drunkards), in the USA. If all this is true with 70 million veritable angels ('Born-Again') in their midst, then it gives a lie to Paul's "a little leaven leaveneth the whole" (1 Cor. 5:6).

"Early tradition ascribed this gospel to the apostle Matthew, but scholars nowadays almost all reject this view. We still conveniently refer to the author as "Matthew". 'Conveniently' because otherwise every time we made a reference to 'Matthew' we would have to say 'The first book of The New Testament' Chapter so and so, verse so and so. And again and again 'The first book ...' etc."

J. B. Phillips, A prebendary of the Chichester Cathedral, England

None of today's officially accepted Gospels - or, for that matter, the Gospel of Barnabas, whose authenticity continues to be attacked by the established Church because its contents contradict official dogma on several fundamental issues - are capable of being objectively authenticated.

No, Jesus did not write the bible that was revealed by God. Not even was it written immediately after his departure. He did not order or desire at any time in his life to write anything on his behalf. Therefore, the Bible which is in circulation today is not a representation of Jesus' teachings.
