Two Voices · No. 01 of 30 · all the sheets
Who is the god of this world?
Paul names him. The Old Testament says whose world it is.
Jesus says this world’s prince “hath nothing in me,” and he obeys the Father. Whose world is it?

If the two halves of your Bible don’t agree
You are not the first to notice. The second-century churches that read the Bible as two voices were burned out of history, and their case can be read again. Start with the free gospel they carried, or the book that sets the two gods side by side, verse by verse.
