The NDE is a threat to particular brands of Christianity. It is a threat
to the archaic concept of a "God of wrath" as described in the
Old Testament who is human-like, wrathful, jealous, hateful, ego-centric
and murderous. Such false concepts of God is mostly the result of elevating
the Bible above common sense. Often, it is the result of claiming a particular
interpretation of the Bible to be the only valid interpretation. The NDE
reveals God to be of infinite love and mercy beyond human comprehension
- the same God suggested by Jesus in the New Testament. To attribute wrath,
jealousy, hatefulness and such to God, as many Old Testament verses (and
in the New Testament) do, is a big mistake. The following webpages analyze
the Bible as an authoritative source worthy of belief.
