Dear Mr. Bill Maher,
Congratulations, for metamorphosing from a simple buffoon to an almost perfect orator. I said almost perfect, because you said in one of your broadcasts “I like Jesus.”
You are one hundred percent correct about religion. Religion is a very profitable industry run by wolves in sheep clothing that specializes in deceiving, and fleecing self-indulgent sheep stuck in the worship of the triune god of Self, composed of Me, Myself, and I, hiding inside opulent mega-temples of doom in order to have their ears tickled, and their egos massaged by unscrupulous self- glorified Deceiving Charlatans, waiting for the “rapture” or the hoax of the ages, which will never come
The “rapture,” not to be confused with the Second Coming of Christ, is nothing more than a ruse contrived by wolves in sheep clothing self-gagged under the IRS 501c3 Tax-Exempt Code that mesmerize, control, and fleece the dumb sheep, while providing wicked men lurking in the shadows with more opportunities to legalize more government sponsored abominations, such as Separation of Church and State, Affirmative Action, Forced Busing, Abortion or Legalized Premeditated Murder on Demand, No Fault Divorce, and Same Sex Marriage.
If you would have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, you wouldn't need to travel all over the world to know that Catholicism, Mormonism, Protestantism, and many others religions proclaiming the name of Jesus are in reality business enterprises controlled by the US Government under the IRS 501c3 Tax-exempt Code, whose primary motives revolve around MONEY and POWER, while pretending to preach the gospel of salvation.
God says in Isaiah 29, “These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men.
You must understand that Christianity is a way of life only for those who have been redeemed by the blood of Christ. Christianity is not a religion. Perverse, and greedy men have transformed the work of Christ into a religion. Jesus Christ didn’t come down from heaven to die on a cruel cross, and rise up again on the third day in order to start a religion. Jesus came down from heaven to redeem humanity from the clutches of hell, sin, and dead, and from the coming wrath of God through the forgiveness of sin by His sacrificial work on the cross, and to establish His body the Church or the Kingdom of Light on the Earth, as it is in Heaven.
Jesus said in John 4, “Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”
As a matter of fact, the great prostitute of organized religion is allegorized in Revelations 17, “The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. This title was written on her forehead: MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.”
In your movie Religulous, you asked the phony Jesus, “If the Bible was written by God, why is stuff in the Bible untrue?” Well, nothing in the Bible is untrue, rather, your sinful nature has blinded you spiritually to the truths of the Bible as stated in Romans 8, “Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.”
The fact is, the Holy Spirit or the third person of the Godhead wrote the Bible through 40 men over a period of about 1600 years, from 1500 BC to about 100 AD. As stated in 2 Timothy 3, "All Scriptures are God-breathed, and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, and also they are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ."
In order for you to understand the truths of the Bible, you MUST be born again, as stated by Jesus Christ in John 3, “I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.” “How can a man be born when he is old?” Nicodemus asked. Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb to be born!” Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.”
This is what God says in Jeremiah 9, “Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,” declares the Lord.”
The following facts are a bit hard to swallow just like a bad tasting medicine, but they are good for your soul. You must understand that you are separated from the life of God because of your sinful nature, and you are also darkened in your understanding because of the ignorance that is in you, due to the hardening of your heart. We are all born sinners, and separated from the life of God as stated in Isaiah 64, “All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away. No one calls on your name or strives to lay hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us and made us waste away because of our sins.”
There is no doubt that you have extraordinary oratorical prowess, and you are a super genius among the dumbbells that surround you. You must face up to reality, and admit that you have an over inflated ego, before you enter a building you must park it outside, and when you stand in front of a mirror you bow down in reverence to yourself, and before meals, you thank yourself for the food you are about to eat.
It is easy for you to be funny when surrounded with wall-to-wall dumbbells laughing continuously at every word coming out of your mouth, but let me tell you that you are not as mighty as you think, as a matter of fact you are not only mortal, you are also fragile, and incapable of adding one hour to your life, you are here by the grace of God as indicated by the following sobering facts.
Fact one, no one ever consulted with you about you being born into the world.
Fact two, you didn’t even choose the place of your birth, you didn’t even choose your parents or your siblings or your relatives.
Fact three, you didn’t even choose your height or the color of your skin or the color of your hair or the color of your eyes.
Fact four, your wit, your great wisdom, and your oratorical prowess will cease at your appointed time of death, and then you must face God’s judgment alone, and none of those dumbbells will be there with you to defend you, as stated in Hebrews 9: 27, “Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.”
You don’t strike me as a man on a quest for truth, you strike me as man on a quest for money by misusing the holy name of Jesus. You also present yourself as an arrogant condescending little man, since you don’t have a shred of respect for the points of view of others. I am sure that in your innermost being you believe that you are a god.
Full of sarcasm you asked the phony Jesus, “It is a monotheistic religion, but it is three of them,” and the phony Jesus responded, “just like water, it can be ice, steam, and water,” and you responded, “oh, I see.” Then behind his back you said, “the analogy that Jesus at the amusement park said yesterday was brilliant, about the trinity is like water, it can be ice, it can be steam, and it can be liquid, wow, that is, boy that is, that stopped me in my tracks for a second, that is a brilliant analogy, when you think about it for a minute is still bullshit.”
In that case you must be bullshit also since you are a triune individual composed of body, mind, and spirit. If you have ever truly loved a woman you would positively know that you were attracted physically to her through your mind, but your love for her began deeply in your spirit, also known as your heart.
Let me tell you what else is bullshit. The bit about Jesus being a copy of the Egyptian god Horus, that’s pure unadulterated bullshit. Here’s the real scoop by Consigliere, and posted by Atheist, Les Jenkins.
I am certain that you don’t have any problem believing that the earth is the only planet in the solar system equipped with an atmosphere suitable for sustaining life, composed of 78% nitrogen, 21.8% oxygen, 0.93% argon, and 0.039% of carbon dioxide, and that the earth is an sphere suspended in empty space about 94 million miles from the sun, measuring 7,926 miles in diameter, orbiting the sun at 18.5 miles per second to mark the years, orbiting on its axis to mark the days, while tilting on its axis 23.5 degrees from vertical in each direction to mark the seasons, and if that wasn’t enough, there is another planet called the moon orbiting the earth about every 27.3 days.
I only described one infinitesimal event of the limitless incomprehensible miracles of God’s creation, composed of millions of planets and galaxies pouring forth their speech day after day, night after night, their voice going out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.
But you Mr. Maher, you enjoy mocking the miraculous virgin birth of Jesus Christ with one of the lamest excuse I’ve ever heard, you said, “How can you believe in the virgin birth if it's only mentioned in two of the gospels?” Well, well, Mr. Maher, when reading the account of some mayor event narrated by four witnesses, it is natural that they have different perspectives since it is impossible for all four witnesses to see the exact same things, since all can’t occupy the same spot at the same time. I hope you realize for your own good that you are the real object of derision, not the Bible.
Mr. Maher, since you believe that you are a borderline genius could you please explain to me how the prophet Isaiah was able to write in such accurate details about the gospel of the suffering servant, and redeemer of mankind in Chapter 53 of the book that bears his name, meshing perfectly together with the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John seven hundred years before Jesus Christ was born, and verified by the Dead Sea Scrolls collection dating back to at least 200 years before Jesus was born, found in the Qumran Caves between 1947 and 1956 ?
And while you are at it, please explain to me how in the world the old testament writers knew that the earth is a sphere suspended over empty space as stated in Isaiah 40:22 “He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers,” and in Job 26:7 “He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing”?
“In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead.” Acts 17: 30-31
You can’t see the truth of the gospel because you’re spiritually blind, blind as a bat, just like the blind man whose friend was kind enough to take him shore fishing. While they were getting ready the sun began to peek above the horizon, so the man was compelled to share with his blind friend the stunning beauty of a cloudless sunrise unfolding right before his eyes, and to the best of his ability he began to describe to the blind man the different shades, hues and colors of the unfolding spectacle, but the blind man could not see it because he was blind, and besides he didn’t believe his friend, he though that his friend was also blind, and the description of the sunrise was only the product of his friend imagination.
Jesus says, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life. I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness. I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.”
Mr. Maher, are you willing to embrace Jesus as your savior? Remember him before the silver cord is severed, or the golden bowl is broken or before the pitcher is shattered at the spring or the wheel is broken at the well, and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it, since God will judge every word, every thought, and every deed, including every hidden thing, whether good or evil.
Therefore, you are in dire need of a savior since you cannot save yourself, and Heaven is out of your reach, unless you come through Jesus Christ.
Jesus says, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
You can’t nullify God and His word out of existence just because you chose not to believe, God is not only your Master, your Lord, and your Judge, God is also the Creator, Master, Lord, and Judge over all creation, weather you acknowledge the fact or not.
Consider the matter very carefully since it has eternal consequences, if you don’t have Jesus Christ living in you, and standing next to you as your advocate right after you die, you are doomed.
Jesus says, “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him.”
If you truly want to know if God exists, go to you closet and pray the following prayer, “God, Jesus, I don’t know if you truly exist, but if you do, please reveal yourself to me and save me!”
If you do, get ready for the greatest ride of your life!! But if you don’t, you will be thrown into the lake of fire where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched, and you will be in intense agony forever and ever.
Amen!!!
