The 2nd Book
The Bible is written as two books. "Two books" does not refer to the Old and New Testaments, but to the literal record and the "mystery hidden from the beginning" within it.[1]
- Normally we say that the Bible has 66 books. This refers to writings by men. When scholars read the Bible, they attempt to interpret the human author's intent for writing.
The second book was written by God by embedding symbols of the cross in the literal writings of men. The meaning of the symbols was not made known until after the cross.
The mystery book - prophetic riddle Discussion
God caused the fish to write a book about fish history; the literal Bible, and hid another book inside. [2][3][4]- He nudged them to write the hidden book, using childish riddles [5], using the same words as the literal history. [6] They were unaware of it. [7]
Jesus said that all the scriptures spoke of him.[9]
When the scriptures speak of others like Adam, Moses and Noah, it is said that they speak of Christ through types; but the study of types is fraught with free-for-all allegory. Surely God did not protect every jot and tittle of his word only to leave it at the mercy of the fickle human mind and heart. Indeed he did not. The literal Bible is written on the 'security paper' of prophetic riddle; a layer of meaning 'hidden from the beginning
[10]and revealed after the cross.
This site is dedicated to reading the second book. [11] and the interpretation of it by the Spirit who gave it. [12]
- The 'priesthood of the believer' does not grant the individual the right to interpret scripture for himself. [13] but is a demand upon him to intercede or pray for others.
- Scripture is properly understood when the Holy Spirit assists you in your studies so that you may see Christ in them all. [14] This is done in a verifiable way so that you may teach others. [15]
It is intended that others feel free to participate by asking questions, and as they become proficient, to spin off their own works or contribute here as members of the "fellowship of the mystery". [16]
