Critics outside the church often accuse the Old Testament God of genocide, racism, ethnic cleansing, and violence. But a rising tide of critics within the church claim that Moses and other "primitive," violence-prone prophets were mistaken about God's commands and character. Both sets of critics dismiss this allegedly harsh, flawed, "textual" Old Testament God in favor of the kind, compassionate, "actual" God revealed by Jesus. Are they right to do so?

The world is full of mysteries. Many are intrigued by earth's mysteries—UFOs, the lost city of Atlantis, the pyramids, the Nebula of Orion, etc. God knows the answer to every mystery.

These hidden, life-shaping values and ideas are not promoted through organized religions or rival philosophies but fostered by cultural habits, lifestyles and the institutional structures of society.

The Bible includes many salient messages that are seldom, if ever, preached, but which are increasingly important for all of us to hear. Many include important facets of Christian theology and eschatology that need to be kept in mind, for they can seriously affect the way that we live. Messages that concern God’s wrath and man’s eternal future should be preached more often, for they alert us to be more watchful of what we say and do, and help us to act more naturally with honesty, integrity and truthfulness.

On making the discovery that parts of the Bible are allegorical, I began to apply the various keys—also to be found in ancient and modern literature on the subject—to many of the books of the Bible.
