Bel and the Dragon Chapter 1 Discussion Page 2

the story tells us that Daniel had faith in the one and only true God, and stuck to his beliefs. which is what all authorized kjv tells us.

lucifer goes by many names, you have to stay with the original KJV. All these new bibles being printed change or leave out very important words where you do not get the meaning of the verse you are reading. In Revelations it tells you some names used by lucifer serpent the one who beguiled Eve, the old dragon, satan,devil, and in other parts of the Bible baal is one of his names, they are several more, they don 't come to memory at this moment.

Oh,children of God,let us not decieved by the devil like the King did at first. Let find the truth it shall set u free.The truth is the Word of God

I like the part where angel can transport you ...nice We need more Daniel today warfaring and discerning

It is written The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be and that which is done is that which shall be done and there is no new thing under the sun Ecc 1 9. The dragon or beast or anything which is represented here is not anything new, dinosaurs did roam over the earth. In revelation 13 14 we read that people will once again do what is revealed in this chapter. In terms of Bel , who cares what the actual name was. People give nicknames or short names every day. In terms of it being in the Apocrypha, why would God have left it in the scriptures for 1800 years after Christ and only be omitted in the last 200? Not only that, but if your spiritual eyes open, then you ll see these kind of demonic beasts all the time God Bless you all.

Yes this book is interesting but i do not go wit it name Bel means baal and dragon is a kind of strange animal can also be used to describ the devil Such a name should not be seen among the books in the bible But i belive its really removed from the bible maybe it was removed because of it name

Do you really think if something makes you feel good then it is from God This is a poor test The only way to know if something is from God is if it is according to the Law and the testimony Feeling good could be deceitful Satan can easily counterfeit that

We can discern if this is coming from God or the Word of God simply and easily. I learned to just ask myself basic questions... for instance, the simplest question would be: How does this (whatever/whoever, etc.) make me feel? If your answer is "Good" then it most certainly is from God. And vice versa!

At this point all I can say is I"m blessed to have been lead to this reading.I want to know the Lord God by doing the correct things he ask of me and the only place I can find that answer is in the bible.Ill keep searching through any and all books I can find.

This explains why he was in the lions den in the first place~ :o) Thank you!

For those that believe, no explanation is necessary. For those that do not, none will suffice.

whether you want to believe it or not, these were in the bible until about 100 years ago. Whether you think they were the words of God or not, someone did. They were removed for who knows why. Just because they may challenge what you may think is the word....doesn't mean they weren't. Education is an amazing thing.

It is the inspired scripture. To DARYL not trying to call you out, but saint do laugh and rejoice when a victory is done towards evil people. Study all the script and you will see how, Isreal, david and many others rejoiced when they, or the father killed off the enemies. Things and scriptures are hidden for a reason. Mankind tries his best to take the father out of the pics. They rewrite, change names, change descriptions, all to throw his people of. His people parish for the lack of knowledge, but the TRUTH is always revealed.

Yahuwah tells us in his word that his people will not be in the dark of who and what he is capable of or who he is! If you really want to know the truth then you will search it out. It also says in the word that he people will know the mysteries. I think if you are truly walking in the spirit, the spirit will guide you in all things. But if you choose to walk in the flesh then you will have a fleshly understanding. If we are to worship Yahuwah, it has to be in spirit and in truth. Make sure that you’re seeking the truth thought the Holy Spirit. I believe these stories are just part of the puzzle we must understand. We will not really know everything till we are in Heaven. I sure like knowing that Yahuwah talks through every person and story that is laid before us. We also have a story and maybe one day someone will read what Yahuwah has done for us. Inspired or not I don't know, But I do know this, they are encouraging stories and I know that I need all the encouragement I can get with the times we are in and it is not about what we are to do for one another. I hear so much tearing down, we have to have some relief somewhere. This world is a wicked world; all that you read in these stories is the same things that happen every day in this world. So if you disagree with this stories, it would be better you live in a perfect world, but because of sin this world is not perfect and until Christ Jesus returns, it is going to stay that way. We live in a broken world where evil has a foot in. So I leave you with this: “Let Jesus be your guide and you will never go wrong”. Yahuwah bless and keep all you saints!

We automatically do not want to believe that these things are not true like the powers of darkness are not larger than life. We seem to forget that Leviathan is in Job 41 described as a huge sea monster as well as in other parts of the Bible. In Genesis 6 the angels mated with women and had giants and not all of them died. Those kids according to the Book of Enoch and the Neanderthal bones that have been found show that those kids were not normal. The Bible speaks of dragons over 16 times. Whether that was dinosaurs or something else we may never know. Apocrypha means hidden. These were hidden to be shown to a generation that would believe and when all these things would come back. Just DO NOT FALL TO THE GNOSTIC FOOLISHNESS! They were not put in the Bible because the knowledge of these books, though a good read, cannot save ones soul. Not because they are not true. I would be careful on what I say whether it is fake or not about these books. The old Rabbis that studied them believe they were real. If they are the true Word of God then they are Him Hebrews 10:7; John 1:1, 14 and we would be blaspheming if we said they were false Mark 3:28, 29. The Gnostic Books like Adam and Eve, Book of Judas, Mary Magdalene etc... the Rabbis did not believe were inspired by God. All scripture in the King James Version of the Holy Bible (along with the Book of Enoch) is inspired by God (2 Timothy3:16) who cannot lie Titus 1:2. God Bless in Jesus Name.

This was an interesting read. I like how this story does not contradict the Scriptures of the Old Testament. Just like the book of Enoch which clearly explains what took place in the time of Genesis before the flood. There is slot if extra information that has been purposely left out of the Bible we have today. See the Catholic Church had gone to great measures to only allow enough information to be revealed. That is how they have kept power and control over many nations. Give people only enough to keep their interest and then control them with manmade rules and regulations as to how and when one can worship God. It is Semi-Anti-Christ to have done this thing. The book of Revelation speaks about the Great Whore Of Babylon as to how she puts herself up to be worshipped in the place of Christ Jesus. Keep reading, researching and pray to the Holy Spirit and the wisdom of God will continue to be revealed to those who thirst for God. Obey God rather than mankind.

It is hard to take this as Gods holy word. Everything just felt a little off balance and not in check with the Bible.

A wonderful Bible Story. Shows the resourcefulness and cunning of David as well as the strength of the Lord in protecting his servant David from the Lions. It also reminds us that we must be weary people even in religious positions of power as some regardless of the outward pretense may have other motives, the priests had a wonderful racket going on getting all their food and wine by tricking the king.

For all those who continually write on these Apocrypha books, that they are not inspired, open your minds and hearts a little, be not so quick to reject the word of God simply because it is not in the Bible that your mommy told you to read. Love and learn from all the scripture that we have been blessed with.

It is NOT Inspired word of god. If your truly are saved you can tell its not from God !!! Sure it has true storys but the saints don't laugh at those who are evil, we pray for them. I read one chapther and thats all i need to tell you its not the bible. Now you can read it and get better under standing of what was going on in those days.

I believe that word Bel, which means Baal as well. Baal is well known for being a false god. You can find that word in the internet. Search keywords - baal false god

I think that it's easy to deny it in anyway when we are given what was decided was "good enough" by the head church so long ago. I know that if it was part of the Bible originally they had no right to remove any of it.

I think this version could be a result of heresy by someone from a neighbour's grand -grand parent. It has some specks of truth but it sounds off.

I wonder if the secret order he is addressing is the Kaballah... they are kind of like the free masons and they worship a snake god that has wings (dragon?)

I wonder if this is the "inspired" Word of God. When I see anything that is not part of the normal 66 books of the KJV which I have bought, owned and read for decades now, I am a sceptic. I do know that Bible Numerics runs through the Inspired Word of God because of the Work that Ivan Panin did and proved. I hope to emulate his Foundation Work in my own small way one day. Thanks for finding something that may be inspired but I will always err on the side of Caution.

wow. Trust in the invisible GOD
