Chapter 9: Rationalization of Mankind

Page 2

I asked God why doctrines that were exactly opposite of His written

word existed in Christianity. For example, when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, Jesus lifted his eyes unto Heaven and said: “Father, I thank You that You have heard me.” [John 11:41] Jesus spoke words of thanksgiving to God. Thank you God for hearing and answering my prayer! That is what

Jesus prayed. Note: Jesus did not say: “Thank you Jesus for hearing Jesus’ prayer.” That sounds stupid, doesn’t it? In other words, Jesus was NOT talking to himself. He was praying to his God. You know, the God that Jesus told us that he was returning to as cited in the last chapter. Remember,

Jesus stated clearly and plainly that his Father and his God were also our Father and our God. This statement of Jesus is plain and clear and it does not leave anything to the imagination from a communications point of view.

Jesus preceded his prayer of thanksgiving to God with the statement

to Martha in John 11:40. Jesus said: “Did I not say to you that if you believe you would see the glory of God?” Once again, Jesus was not talking about Martha seeing his glory: he was talking about Martha seeing God’s glory.

Jesus prayed to his God. He did not pray to himself!

Jesus said it would be God’s glory that Martha saw. Not his!

So I asked God. “Why would the doctrine of the trinity exist given this and other clear and plain words spoken by Jesus throughout the New Testament?” Obviously, they teach opposite such doctrine. Why God?

God gave me understanding and told me: “It is the rationalization of mankind.” I have now studied this subject in depth and I can tell you I have to conclude that there is no limit to the rationalization of mankind. This is especially true when it comes to the Christian doctrine of the trinity.

If you actually believed in the trinity doctrine, you would have to check your brain in at the front door of the church. That is because your Bible studies would come up against the above words of Jesus and more.
