Simple Hermeneutic
How to correct a sentence?
Suppose the original sentence wrote on the white board is this, "You have five lemons." Every one in the class was requested to copy this sentence in the note book.
A scholar wrote like this, "You have five lemons." I give him a tick, a pass, I give him a perfect 5 marks.
Some one wrote like this, "You have five yellow lemons." I also give him a tick and a pass, but minus a mark. He get 4 marks.
Another man wrote like this, "You has five lemon." I also give him a pass. Minus two marks. He got 3 marks.
Another man wrote like this, "You have five green lemons." I also give him a pass. Minus a mark. He got 4 mark.
Lastly one theologian came, and wrote like this, "You have five demons." I give him a cross, minus 5 marks, he get zero. I am angry with him in making a lemon to be a demon. A serious mistake.
This apply to in choosing better MSS, and it also apply to Bible versions, how we are going to choose and reject, those different wordings in the Bibles, which one is better and which one to be reject totally...are they carrying the original meaning, which one does not...
To stress my point on the theologian, the theologians have to write on the white board 5000 times, "I have five lemons." And then he was requested to make 5000 cups of lemonade, and sell those 5000 cups of lemonade in a day, and he has to pluck 10,000 lemons from the fruit orchard in a week. To make him remember lemon and demon have different meanings!
What about the throne and the king, Many kings were over thrown because they were selfish kings.
Some one descript these kings like this, "The kings allowed himself to burn a house, but he did not allow his people under him to lit a candle." So what happened? The people over thrown the king from the throne and then they elect another man to be the king.
History tells us, the evil and selfish kingdoms will not be protected, it does not last long... because the people in the kingdom are suffering, the people will react one day...when they are hungry and thirsty, they will not care about the law and religion any longer, they will over throw the king and his family from the throne. Ended the kingdom. And there come another kingdom, another dynasty. And the hungry people shouted to the king, "You are only one vote, one vote in the election...our votes are more than you....we want our part, we want our power, we want our right." These kings are making a revolution in the people's hearts...
In writing this, is to point you to the theologians, who are teaching VPP, about their hermeneutic, and their errors...making lemon to be demon. The people will react soon, and then the theology will be over throw...and no one regret about it anymore. So there is revolutions in the west and east...history may repeat again...even in the church.
Have fun!
