Central
to the book's plot line is the allegation that "lost books of the
Bible" have been suppressed by the church for centuries. These lost books
claim that Jesus married Mary Magdalene and had children with her. This
radically misrepresents history and is misleading many people. These
alleged "lost books of the Bible" were found at Nag Hammadi, So why
did the church exclude these books from the Bible? Because the documents did
not meet the criteria for authentic Scripture, which involved several central
questions: Was the writer someone Jesus had chosen as an apostle? Did the book
have widespread acceptance among church leaders? Did God's Spirit speak through
it? The "lost books" did not pass these tests. All the books we have
in our New Testament did. When
people question the trustworthiness of the Scriptures, we need to give them a
respectful and an informed answer. It might just make them want to know more
about our Bible—and our God. —Dennis Fisher God's
words of pure, eternal truth To the wise, God's Word is
sufficient.
Bacaan: 1 Yohanes 4:1-3 Alur cerita utama dalam buku itu adalah adanya dugaan bahwa “kitab yang
hilang dari Alkitab” telah dirahasiakan oleh gereja selama berabad-abad.
Kitab-kitab yang hilang ini menyatakan bahwa Yesus menikahi Maria Magdalena dan
memiliki beberapa anak dari pernikahan itu. Hal ini sama sekali tidak
mengungkapkan sejarah dan menyesatkan banyak orang. Kitab-kitab yang diduga sebagai “kitab-kitab yang hilang dari Alkitab”
ini ditemukan di Nag Hammadi, Mesir, pada tahun 1945. Kitab-kitab ini
menyangkal kealkitabiahan Yesus dan mengembangkan penyembahan terhadap
dewa-dewa, pendewaan diri sendiri, dan informasi rahasia. Lalu mengapa gereja tidak memasukkan kitab-kitab ini ke dalam Alkitab?
Karena dokumen-dokumen di dalamnya tidak memenuhi kriteria keaslian Kitab Suci,
yang melibatkan beberapa pertanyaan utama: Apakah penulisnya adalah seseorang
yang telah dipilih Yesus sebagai seorang rasul? Apakah kitab tersebut diterima
secara luas di kalangan para pemimpin gereja? Apakah Roh Allah berbicara
melalui kitab itu? “Kitab-kitab yang hilang” itu tidak lolos tes ini. Namun,
semua kitab yang kita miliki di dalam Perjanjian Baru lulus tes ini. Ketika banyak orang mempertanyakan keabsahan Kitab Suci, kita perlu memberi
mereka jawaban yang terhormat dan jelas. Hal itu mungkin akan membuat mereka
ingin lebih mengenal Alkitab kita—dan Allah kita —HDF BAGI ORANG BIJAK, FIRMAN ALLAH itu CUKUP
