Eyewitness Testimony

That isn't what I said at all. I stated that I have two books that document the evidence and I'm trying to briefly share it as best I can starting with what we know, and that's where the objections started. I claimed that the gospels authors have been stated as anonymous, but we have been 'told' who they are and everyone believes the story, but there is no proof for Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The objections started flying about this statement and I'm not sure why. I believe you provided the same comment.
There are people who are generally interested in the conversation and there are people that are only present to disrupt. I read some of the other posts from the person who wanted to get keep arguing and this is a pattern. People can have facts and opinions, and it's the facts that count.
The evidence for Nicodemus, James, Silas, and John is based on forensic analysis of scripture using FBI interrogation training, other audit and assessment training and certification, and 30 years leading and conducting investigations through interviews and document analysis. My investigations results are based on only facts and never opinion. I found that there was no evidence supporting Matthew, Mark and Luke as authors, and scripture alone proves that Matthew, Mark, and Luke were not authors--the ones I mention are.
It isn't off topic, because the Lord had his hand in every step of my career to ensure that I had the skills to do the job he wanted as specified above. I'm a chemical engineer who has had a long career investigating all kinds of issues including those related to process, project, operations, maintenance, shipping/receiving, environmental, safety, and personnel management inefficiencies and incidents at major chemical companies throughout the USA. Mid-career I was hired by Los Alamos National Laboratory as a subject matter expert to assess and audit performance throughout their programs in their almost 50 square mile facility. Most notably, I managed the investigations group and had a specialty job addressing and implementing programs to prevent and address major incidents of nuclear safety and security. I had a direct line to management and Washington D.C. oversight. Included in my career has been specialty training and certification like the FBI interrogation training.
Why do I bring all this up? Because the Lord steered every step of the way in my career so that I had the skills to perform a very unique and effective review of scripture. The only evidence of Jesus that exists are the words in scripture. Since there are no eyewitness accounts of Jesus outside of scripture, I had to dig deep into scripture to try to identify the gospel authors--a major source of disbelief in gearheads like me. Jesus ensured that there were enough breadcrumbs remaining in scripture to obtain answers. Why now and why me? It's above my paygrade, but I can take a stab at it. Prophecy says that the time of Jesus is winding down, and many come to Jesus because of the gospel. But most doubters like me see the conflicts and contradiction of having over 48,000 congregations of Christian churches with various rules, laws, and practices. The Lord with the disciples created one unified church. The eyewitness testimony of Nicodemus, James, John, and Peter bring certainty to the truth of Jesus and with them, rereading scripture reveals only the truth of Jesus--contradictions disappear. Every contradiction that a doubter has was introduced through false teachers who have corrupted the church.
People in the church don't want to hear about corruption-they only want to hear about Jesus, and I admire this. My work is not for those who see only the beauty of Jesus and don't need the truth of the gospel authors. My Baptist born and raised wife is like this. However, my job is to reveal the corruption on the hopes that some will come to Christ through the truth. I know that so far my books have touched a few and brought them to Christ, and this is the only reason for me investigating and writing. The upcoming books that clear up and thoroughly explain the truth of prophecy will certainly be rejected by most in the church. However, I have tried to understand Daniel and Revelation prophecy in the past and failed like everyone else. The truth of prophecy is a beautiful story of the of the future of the church. With the truth one can see how intimately God has been with us from the beginning because history proves that it was all predicted in advance. I have been proofing the upcoming book on Revelation and when I read it, I now understand Revelation but I don't recognize the book as something I wrote. That might sound weird, but it can't be my writing, and I can't take credit for it --just like for the revealing of the Gospel authors.
Certainly I will be ridiculed for what I wrote here, but it doesn't matter because I have a job to do and in accordance with where I'm being led, I am to start speaking of the results. The proof is in the documentation and analysis and some will find it valuable and others will scoff at it. It doesn't matter that there will be those who scoff at the results. I stick to the facts and thus far there have been many attacks on what I have found and written about, but nobody has provided any data or evidence that contradicts anything I have written. My mind is open to evaluate evidence that will adjust the results. I've just tried to do the best I can. Blessings!!

In following along with the subject of attacking newcomers on this site. People are quick to spam and say "prove it what you claim," and this is a valid thought and request. However, when I respond and tell people to prove to me that Matthew, Mark, and Luke wrote the gospels I'm attacked as an idiot, yet nobody attempts to provide proof. Why don't they provide proof -- because none exists for those authors. People are willing to die by their belief that the authors are Matthew, Mark, and Luke--yet there is no evidence to support them as authors--it's all been a story created by false teachers--this is addressed in my second book. The cool thing is that then the Lord took me to prophecy and there I was shown that God predicted the one church of Jesus Christ would become a conglomerate of confusion and contradictions.
I would recommend you read a book by Ellen White called The Great Controversy. It's about the end of time and what is coming on the earth. I find it Biblical. Reading another book of hers called the Desire of Ages turned me from a life of drug addiction to God as I found the love of God in that book. It caused me to realize for the first time in my life that God loved me, the guy who was detested and abused by everyone in my immediate family.
Here's a link where you can download the Great Controversy. The Desire of Ages is in the same series of books as Great controversy, It starts from the fall of Lucifer in heaven and traces our the war between Christ and satan down though our history.

As an example to understand the methodology of identifying the gospel authors that the Lord had me use, I present the following challenge. There have been billions of people who have lived on this planet. I think we can all agree on this--at least I hope we can. Of all the billions of people that have ever lived on this plant, I presented enough details in Post #47 to tell you exactly who I am. There is only one person in the history of the world that matches the description in that post. What are the details that will identify me?
There were only four people in the history of the world that could have written that story about Jesus, and they are Nicodemus, James, John, and Peter through a scribe named Silas.

Congratulations on your journey Gary. I would take a look at it, but am overwhelmed right now with the data I'm trying to assemble. Prophecy in Daniel and Revelation provided a good picture of the time of the end, and I've summarized that in the upcoming books, so I am curious about what Ellen White had to say about it. Maybe you wouldn't mind briefly summarizing?
She covers the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation as well as the other prophets and Jesus. She also covers the Reformation and what has happened since then. She goes on to show what happens at the very end of time. Things like the seven last plagues and the actual coming of Jesus and the resurrection of the saints,
What does she say about the seventy sevens of Daniel?
I did a search and found some info on Ellen White's summary of Daniel's seventy sevens and if it is accurate, what I have written will be at odds with what she wrote. Here is the summary that is on the back cover of the soon-to-be-released interpretation:
[Moderator edit: book title removed] is a must-read for anyone searching for the full and complete meaning of Daniel prophecy. Learn how Daniel 9:24-27 accurately predicted the arrival and mission of Jesus rather than a mysterious future seven-year tribulation period. Understand the meaning of the numbers 2300 from Daniel 8:14, 1290 and 1335 from Daniel 12:11-12, and 1260 from Revelation 12:1-6 which is the key to solving the prophecy puzzle. No longer is the prophecy in Daniel and Revelation a mystery that is hidden from the world."
Why do I think it is correct? Because the numbers all add up and from start to finish the book of Daniel provides a historical summary.

She has many gushing adulants who constantly slander those who tell the truth about her and her false teachings.
You’re a real charmer 7djengo7 with a very general conclusion. I don’t discount anything without evaluating it.
So you say. If I had any money, I'd be willing to bet you've never read any of her writings. You're just taking other people's word for it.

| The liquor-drinking, the smoking and gambling, the horse-racing, the theater-going, the great importance placed upon holidays,—all are a species of idolatry, a sacrifice upon idol altars. --the "Prophetess" |
Apparently you've never read any of her writings.
So you consider that bad spiritual advice?

No. But it it appears you do.
