The Race is Run (eBook, ePUB)

An Indictment of Creedal Christianity

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Race is Run: An Indictment of Creedal Christianity demonstrates that the core teachings of the major denominations of Christianity such as the Virgin Conception/Birth, the Miraculous Incarnation and the Trinity are not based on either the Hebrew Scriptures or the New Testament but rather are drawn from the Hellenist-Latin theologies and philosophies of the Church Fathers as expressed in the Christian Creeds formulated and formalised through the medium of the Ecumenical Councils convened between the years 325 AD and 451 AD.

Ignorance of Israelite thought, modes of expression, terminology and cultural norms, together with the Fathers' existing predilections, facilitated the creation of the cult-like figure "Jesus Christ", fashioned according to their image and their values.

This work also features a demonstration that the Christian teaching of Supersessionism contributed to the centuries of Jewish persecution which ultimately led to the Holocaust as well as a challenge to the concept of Immortal Souls and soul destinations called Heaven and Hell and a re-contextualisation of many other teachings and concepts such as Sin, Salvation, Atonement, Faith, Works, Justification and Grace.
