My journey has been one of the lonely ones. I practically reason things alone and try to get answers all by myself. Following this method means I change my mind about something I may have accepted as truth at another point.
At first I resisted the change. Many people online want to personalize the bible and own it. It was war internally that made me to take time. And now I am moving than staying stagnant I can tell you that I can say freely that the bible is not fiction nor is it the truth.
My decoding of the bible started off by trying to change the word from either Hebrew/Greek to Bantu words. Quickly I got so many names decoded. You can see from different posts in this blog. Then I tried understanding stories with the new Bantu words. I then realized how ridiculous these stories sounded using Bantu words.
It was as if I am reading fables. The peoples names all of a sudden are not names but verbs. Yes, as a Bantu you can use a verb to name your child but it is not common. So the book I was claiming to be about our history quickly became a book of spells.
It is so hard to communicate this in written form as it might need a chalkboard/ projector to fully show how this book plays itself. For example the Hebrew word for blessing is Baruch which I suspect comes from Setswana word which is not blessing but work. So when grace is said in church - your pastor may be unknowingly committing you to servitude. Yes, reciting it in English is so beautiful but in the original language is not it.
How these words lock nations to servitude is through keywords. Eg Jacob loved to cook but Esau loved to hunt. In the Zulu tribe history Qwabe loved to hunt but Zulu took care of the livestock. Keyword of hunting is linked to Esau in the bible. Another keyword Jacob was cooking a red stew when Esau was too hungry. And which nation is famous for red stews (Nigeria). Just check any stew they cook, it has lots of tomatoes and pepper (sometimes).
Jacob is said to mean a deceiver and many bad things. I feel bad for Nigerians because they put a curse on them to be followers and supplanters. How do I get Nigeria you may ask - from Yoruba. Yoruba to Yarob (remove u). When they gave Jacob meaning in the bible the point was to twist many good peoples destiny in Nigeria and turn them to deceivers. Every time they give a ridiculous meaning, just try and associate the name with a nation and check whether they follow the meaning in the bible. I know it sounds like a far-fetched idea. It sounds like a joke or a lie.
I think very few people will accept the truth.
I don't know how I feel about this seriously.
The only reason I listen to the bible now is only to get more insight on what is causing harm to people.
I have changed my mind about wanting to be the people of the book. I may still change it again.
I am thankful for the lockdowns and the church closures more and more and the fact that I have no job to keep me busy.
The spell is loosing little by little. The less people reciting the bible the better.
