The New Testament And How It Was Written

The New Testament And How It Was Written

Witnessing: What was seen, heard, experienced, or researched. This covers historical, personal, community, and legal documentation.  

Revelation: Truth given by God that humans could not arrive at by observation alone.  

Direct speech (“The word of the LORD came…”). Visions and dreams, and inspired interpretation of events.  

Channeling”: Is today’s modern word. Channeling is use to mean conscious or semi-conscious reception of spiritual information, which then passes through the person’s own language, concepts, and understanding.

Biblical terms used are; inspiration/inspired, utterance, revelation, prophecy/prophesying, vision, oracle. “The Word of the Lord came unto…..”. Moved by the Spirit, and communion.

Biblical writers wouldn’t say “I channeled a message”, they would say, “The word of the LORD came unto me…”  “Thus says the LORD…”  “I was in the Spirit…”  “I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you…”

The New Testament, the Gospels and Acts, are eyewitness memory and direct revelation.

The healing stories, teachings, crucifixion, resurrection appearances, travels of the apostles, are eyewitness memory. Authors who are spiritually interpreting what they saw.

The words of Jesus are witnessed events, and Jesus being a Divine Source. The Disciples heard Jesus speak. They later recalled, repeated, taught, and eventually wrote those words so the recording is witness-based and memory-based, not “channeled” dictation.

Jesus claims His teachings are not self derived opinions but come directly from the Father:

My teaching is not mine, but His who sent Me.” “I speak just what the Father has taught Me.” “The words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself.”

When you focus on the words of Jesus, you’re focusing on the only place in Scripture where God speaks directly. Where the “vessel” is not a prophet interpreting. Where the filter is not a human consciousness trying to translate revelation. The message is not by way of visions, dreams, or symbolic language. Accuracy is from multiple eyewitness. Jesus is not channeling God. Jesus is God speaking through a human mouth.

Biblical writers are doing one of two things. Reporting what they saw, or reporting what they received by prophecy, vision or inspiration. But Jesus is doing something entirely different. Jesus is revealing what He knows because He is one with the Father. That is why the red letters are more accurate than any other biblical voice.

Jesus says: “My words shall not pass away.” “The words I speak are spirit and life.” “I speak only what the Father has given Me.” “He who has seen Me has seen the Father.”

Jesus gives life, but man builds systems around the life. Jesus is direct, unfiltered, and divine truth. Apostles, theologians, churches are interpretations and human attempts to explain or expand on what Jesus said. Interpretation is commentary and not the foundation of the Red Letters. If salvation is defined by anyone other than Jesus, it becomes distorted by human depth, human limitation, and human complexity. But when salvation is defined by Jesus Himself, it remains simple and universal. It is rooted in love. Jesus simplified salvation, and man complicated it.”

The red letters contain the full simplicity of salvation. A direct path spoken by the God Himself. Everything added afterward is interpretation, not foundation. The teachings of Jesus on how to live are complete.
