IT AIN

that I am being Satanic and that the

Bible is Gods word and

must be taken literally.

I will offer proof the Bible
cannot be taken literally
and is not
God's unerring word

The Bible most read throughout
the world by far is
The King James Bible.

It is the initial translation from
Greek into English.

If you open the
King James Bible
you will find words
written in italics.

There is a reason for this

which has to do with

the Bible writings being

formed by people.

In translating the Bible from

Greek to English

the translators found that the

same words in Hebrew and Greek

had different meanings.



So what they did was put

into the text what

they thought what the

best interpretation

would be and they put it
in italics to show
that it was not in
the original text.

We have two points here

We have Hebrew and Greek scripture
using the same words that may
mean
   two totally different things.

Then we have interpreters
coming along and
translating the
Greek into English and

saying,

Well we think that it would
be best to reach
this conclusion as to what was
meant.

   What they were saying

   by writing in italics is,

" This is not what the original says but

   we think that this is better and easier
   for you to understand.

    So there is your unerring
    word of God being
    changed by people trying
    to make it
    easier for you to understand
    and Christianity
    saying it must be taken literally
    because it's God's word.

     Not when somebody with a pen
     starts changing the words.


     When that happens,
     then what you're reading ,
     ain't necessarily so.


      So now here are the words to
      George Gershwins song.

       It ain't necessarily so,
       It ain't necessarily so,
     The things that you're liable
       to read in the Bible,
       It ain't necessarily so.

Li'l David was small,but oh my !,

Li'l David was small but oh my !,

He fought Big Goliath
who lay down an' dieth !
Li'l David was small, but oh my !

Oh Jonah, he lived in the whale,

Oh Jonah, he lived in the whale,

For he made his home in
that fish's abdomen

Oh Jonah, he lived in the whale.

Li'l Moses was found in a stream.

Li'l Moses was found in a stream.

He floated on water
Till Ol' Pharaoh's daughter,

She fished him,
She said, from that stream.

Well, it ain't necessarily so

Well, it ain't necessarily so

They tell all you children
The devils a villain

But it ain't necessarily so !

To get into Heaven,

Don't snap for a seven,

Live clean don't have no fault

Oh, I take that gospel,
Whenever it's possible,
But with a grain of salt

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years,

Methus'lah lived nine hundred years,

But who calls that livin'
When no gal will give in,
To no man that's nine hundred years

I'm preachin' this sermon to show,

It ain't necessarily ain't necessarily
Ain't necessarily
So
