I am the Bible Forensics Auditor. I don’t do ear-tickling sermons or cosmic arm-wrestling matches. I audit the text like a crime scene. I trace every doctrine back to the evidence. And I call out the fraud when Zoroastrian dualism shows up wearing a church suit. Good and evil are NOT slugging it out for your soul. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. He’s a convicted felon on death row, throwing a scorched-earth tantrum because he knows he’s already finished. Your soul is not a trophy in some fair fight. It’s a jurisdiction issue. The transfer of ownership was filed, sealed, and paid in full at the cross. The paperwork is done. The only question left is whether YOU will sign it and walk free. No good thoughts, good words, or good deeds will save you. Only faith in the finished work of Christ. Welcome to the audit. Let’s rip the costumes off the lies. #BibleForensicsAuditor

Paul converted after the movement already existed in multiple cities. Something produced those communities before he arrived. Also – Paul had every reason to stay a persecutor. Roman citizen, Pharisee, rising star. What flipped him? “Better marketer” doesn’t answer that. And Peter and James had none of Paul’s advantages. They still died for it without recanting.

Judges never frames Deborah as a failure or a judgment. She’s introduced as a prophetess Israel came to for justice. God spoke through her. No correction. No shame. You imported that conclusion – it’s not in the text. And yes, I build bodies for a living. Still waiting on your text that governs civil authority.

@FitArmy @RightWingWatch Every other text in the Bible. A single instance of a female ruler is the exception that makes the rule - ironically taken from the book of the Bible that could be called “what not to do” (Judges). This is like arguing with a toddler. Or a “body architect”, I suppose.

Christian nationalist Joel Webbon, who thinks women should not have the right to vote, describes women in civic leadership as a sign of God's punishment on a rebellious nation

Partially agree. That’s why I audit the ancient record instead of defending modern translations. The manuscript tradition is the most documented in antiquity – 5,800+ Greek copies, variations catalogued, nothing buried. The scribal interference problem is real and prosecutable. But “changes were made” and “the core record is fabricated” are two different charges. Which one are you filing?

@FitArmy @Ravens_Eyes72 @kaizen000000000 Unless you yourself are reading Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic, you're reading a 'bad version' of the bible. They've all been changed. Had words and meanings changed on purpose or by mistake, books have been left out or added, etc.

You googled “men lead women bible verses” and posted the results. Every passage in that screenshot is about marriage or church elder qualifications. None of them govern civil authority. Deborah held judicial authority over all Israel. That’s in the same Bible. Where’s your text that overrides her?

I’m sorry, I don’t believe “city councils” existed 2000 years ago. Who leads every church community in the New Testament? The requirements are clear: “A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)” If you can’t extrapolate the entire Bible’s message that men are to lead women (because it is the natural order that God created), you are a product of modern feminism/Marxism.

@Lumberjackish_ @forest_john80 @kaizen000000000 Correct. Which is why the question isn’t whether he existed – it’s why this one produced a global movement within one generation while the others didn’t. “Of which there were many” is the setup, not the answer. What happened that the others didn’t?

By that standard you have no reliable history before the printing press. Suetonius writing about Caesar. Plutarch on Alexander. Thucydides on events before his birth. All of them “just writing about what people believed.” You don’t apply this standard anywhere else. That’s not skepticism – that’s a personal exemption for one subject.

@FitArmy @kaizen000000000 So the answer is 0, NONE of them were even alive when Jesus was, so at best they're just writing about what people believed. Glad we agree.

@Simple_Shaman @kaizen000000000 Define “inspired.” The text itself contains human authors who say things God later contradicts, scribal layers, and disputed passages. The question you’re building toward assumes a model I don’t hold. What’s the actual claim you want to test?

@Simple_Shaman @kaizen000000000 Tacitus writing about Nero’s Christians decades later is still independent corroboration. That’s how historiography works. Same standard used for Caesar, Plato, and everyone else you don’t question.

@muhraydeth @RightWingWatch Isaiah 3:12 is discipline text for covenant Israel in rebellion. I said that. You reposted it anyway. 1 Tim 3:5 is about church elders. Neither text governs who runs a city council. Find a text that does and we’ll talk.

Of course our mothers, daughters and sisters are not punishment, they are a blessing - and wives, in particular are our other half of God’s image - BUT: women in authority over men are the punishment we’ve asked for. You are the one not reading the context of the Bible. Throughout the old and New Testament this natural order is clear: “For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?” - 1 Timothy 3:5 Isaiah 3:12 - “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.”

Jerome disputed the deuterocanonicals. Councils disagreed before Trent. The “73 books everywhere” story is tidier in retrospect than it was in practice. But more importantly – if a thousand years of usage settles it, that’s community consensus, not Roman authority. You just argued against Rome, not for it.

CATHOLIC MAXIMUS@EcciusMaximus·
THE BIBLE HAPPENED IN THIS ORDER: The apostles built churches FIRST…..then they wrote letters to those churches.....those letters then became the Bible, NOT the other way around. This proves Sola Scriptura false This is why Scripture says the Church (and not Scriptures) is the pillar and foundation of the truth.

For the number of times that I see RCs saying “Jesus didn’t leave us a Bible” it sure leads me to the impression they don’t care much about it

@EcciusMaximus 382 AD is the Damasus synod – not an ecumenical council, never universally ratified. Trent 1546 is Rome’s first dogmatic canon definition. Those are different claims. Which one grants Rome magisterial authority over the text?

That’s a graphic. Not an argument. Which specific claim in that post is false? Name it. Source it. Because “corroborate the basic historical skeleton” is not a controversial position – that’s the mainstream academic consensus, including from non-Christian historians. If you have a counter-source, post it. That’s how the file works.

Nobody claimed Tacitus confirmed the resurrection. The original claim was “no evidence outside the Bible.” That claim is dead. You just buried it yourself. Now you’ve quietly moved to “no supernatural confirmation from secular sources” – which is a completely different argument, and one nobody disputes. Secular historians don’t confirm supernatural events. That’s what makes them secular historians. But here’s what they DO confirm: the movement exploded from Jerusalem within weeks of a public execution. The tomb was disputed, not dismissed. The disciples didn’t scatter – they accelerated. You want a Roman historian to confirm a resurrection? That’s not how evidence works in any forensic framework. What you CAN ask is: what’s the most economical explanation for all the documented behavior AFTER the event? The file doesn’t require Tacitus to believe the resurrection. It requires you to explain the aftermath without one.

@FitArmy @kaizen000000000 At best from those sources, you get confirmation that a man calling himself Jesus Christ existed and was crucified. What you don’t get from them is confirmation about any of the supernatural claims. Sorry. Must try harder.

“Knowing good and evil” isn’t moral kindergarten. It’s the Hebrew idiom for autonomous moral arbitration – you become your own god. They knew the command. They knew who gave it. The serpent’s exact sales pitch was “you’ll be like God, knowing good and evil.” He just repackaged the serpent’s argument and called it logic.

Darwin to Jesus@darwintojesus·
If Adam and Eve didn't have knowledge of good and evil, how could they have known it was wrong to eat the fruit? This is a very common point made by atheists to try to discredit the Bible, but like most arguments atheists make it relies on their uncharitable misunderstanding or blatant ignorance of what the Bible says, rather than what it actually means. So let's address Matt. There are different ways a person can know something. Take the color blue, or love… you can know all about these things, but do you really "know" them if you’ve never experienced them yourself? My point is that Adam and Eve knew it was wrong to disobey God, but they didn’t know what it was like* to disobey God. In that sense, they did not have knowledge of good and evil. This is backed up in scripture, Eve has to be convinced by the serpent to eat the fruit because she knows God said don't eat it, and to eat it would be wrong. That's why the snake has to convince her to disobey God. It's only after they both eat the fruit that they know what it is to disobey God, which is why they hide in shame.

The energy finding is real. ENEA did the math. That part isn’t the problem. The problem is the leap. The man in that shroud has a full intact beard. Isaiah 50:6 says it was torn out. John 20:7 puts a separate face cloth folded apart from the burial linens – so how does a facial impression exist at all? Authentic ancient cloth. Unproven identity. Those aren’t the same case.

The Unexplainable Power Behind the Shroud of Turin Proves its Authenticity: How much power is 34 thousand billion watts of energy traveling at 1/40th of a billionth of a nanosecond? This instantaneous power is roughly 10 times the entire worlds electricity generation and consumption at any given moment as the global average electricity use is only 3 Terawatts. Imagine every power plant, solar farm, wind turbine, dam and nuclear reactor on Earth running at full capacity….then multiply that output by 10. Thats the power surge required to equal the power that created the image on the Shroud. Anything slower or less precise would have scorched, incinerated or damaged the fine linen. No natural process or current technology can deliver 34 Terawatts uniformly over a large area in a controlled 25 nanosecond pulse without scorching or destroying the linen. This is why the Shroud image remains scientifically unexplained by any known mechanism.
