Welcome to 2ndBook Press. They say that writing your first book is the most difficult, so I wrote my second book first. I'm kidding. There have been rumors of missing books from the Bible for centuries. The claim is a subtle hostility against the Word of God. It is the voice of the serpent.

Can you test the books in the Bible and prove they are the Word of God? If not, how could you test a book outside the Bible to prove it is the Word of God?

There is a test for Old Testament scripture. Anyone can learn to perform it. When you test a dollar bill, you examine the watermark on the paper. If the watermark isn't there, it is an obvious counterfeit.

The watermark of scripture is not an image on it's paper. It is an image painted by the nature of words to have many meanings.

Consider: Mary had a little lamb. Who is Mary? Is she a fictitious person invented because of need to write a silly rhyme? Is she Mary, Queen of Scots used to make a political statement. Is it Mary, the mother of Jesus, who bore the Lamb of God?

You use pun, riddle, and word play to hide something in plain sight. God needed to hide the message of the cross from everyone, He hid it in plain sight. No one could see it because they did not know of the cross. They had no idea what to look for.

The story of the cross is woven into the historical narrative in such detail that it is like security paper. Books that do not have the 'security paper' are not scripture.

If the original story were to change, the hidden story would also change. The 2nd layer enables the testing of variations in the text between manuscripts. The 2nd layer is so pervasive and in such detail that we call it 'The 2nd Book".

Site purpose []


Jesus said that all the scriptures spoke of him.[1] 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 [2]and revealed after the cross.

This site is dedicated to reading the second book. [3] and the interpretation of it by the Spirit who gave it. [4]

The 'priesthood of the believer' does not grant the individual the right to interpret scripture for himself. [5] 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. [6] This is done in a verifiable way so that you may teach others. [7]

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". [8]

  1. ± Lu 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
  2. ± 1Co 2:7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom], which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
  3. ± Eph 3:9 And to make all [men] see what [is] the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
  4. ± 2Pe 1:20-21 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost. [{in old time: or, at any time }
  5. ± 2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
  6. ± 2Pe 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost. [{in old time: or, at any time }]
  7. ± 2Ti 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. [{among: or, by }]
  8. ± Eph 3:9 And to make all [men] see what [is] the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
