Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

The Gospel is good, but it’s uncertainty fails to bring genuine peace 
The problem with the holy gospel is that, unlike what happens with Moses words [recorded in God’s Law], 
most of the words attributed to Jesus (peace and blessings be upon him) can't be interpreted in a clear and 
straightforward sense; rather, they can be safely understood only after the events alluded by them have 
already taken place. 
Consider the following example: Jesus tells his disciples that they must buy swords, as things concerning his 
own person will soon get “heated”; as is written- “Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let 
him take it, and likewise his scrip: and 
he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one
. For I 
say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the 
transgressors: 
for the things concerning me have an end
”- Luke 22:36-37, KJV. 
If you were one of Jesus apostles [like Simon Peter], you would think Jesus meant to say you needed to 
prepare for physical confrontation (what else are swords needed for?). But the fact is that, though sincere, 
such literal interpretation would have been totally wrong, as not long after those words Jesus is quoted 
rebuking the use of such weapons. As is written: 
“Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The 
servant's name was Malchus. 
Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which 
my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
”- John 18:10-11, KJV 
If were to be intellectually honest, we would have to recognize that Jesus had clearly asked his disciples to 
get swords; but the fact is that they weren’t sure what to make out of Jesus words. Did he mean to say they 
were allowed to use the swords? Or were they not? Truth be told, they would have to wait for events to 
unfold, in order to know what the correct interpretation was. As is written: 
(1) “And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before
them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man 
with a kiss?
