Reformed Samaritanism General Overview

[by conjecture] that it was the Lord
”- John 21:12, King James Bible. 
And this uncertainty concerning the identity of the person who claimed to be the resurrected Jesus lingered 
until the very end of the narrative, as some of the apostles still had doubts about the whole issue of 
resurrection. As is written: “Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus 
had appointed them. 
And when they saw him, they worshiped him: but some doubted
. And Jesus came and 
spake unto them, saying... Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, 
and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”- Matthew 28:16-19, KJV. 
But if the record of Jesus resurrection is so incoherent, why would “The New Testament” willingly include it 
in his pages? Well, the answer is quite simple [though known only by a chosen few]. You see, the Christian 
writings make extensive use of what ancient Roman politicians used to call, “the power of ambiguity”. 
For example, while on one hand the New Testament claims that Jesus will come back soon («The one who 
bears witness to these things says, “
Yes, I’m coming soon
”»- Revelation 22:20, Common English Bible); on 
the other hand it claims that, in the eyes of God, a thousand years are like one single day (“Don’t let it escape
your notice, dear friends, that 
with the Lord a single day is like a thousand years
and a thousand years are 
like a single day”- 2 Peter 3:8). 
So, when you confront any Christian believer with the fact that Jesus has failed to fulfill his promise of 
returning soon, the believer can always take advantage of this ambiguity, claiming that Jesus hasn’t really 
been delayed; as, “in the eyes of God”, the last 2000 years have been like 2 days! (a very short time!!). 
Thus, just as it happens with the campaign promises of a shrewd politician, the ambiguities purposely built 
into the New Testament give all Christian believers the “unlimited power” to prove [or disprove] almost 
anything he wants. 
And the former explains why we are better off focusing on Moses Five books of Torah, as the theological 
content of these books is clear, and unambiguous; teaching us that there’s only one God [not a Trinity]; a Just
and merciful Being who wants His people to strive on the path of goodness; A fair God, who rewards us 
378


whenever we do the good described by His commandments, while punishing us whenever we stray away 
from the path [without resolving to repent and return]. 
So, no gimmicks, no Monday morning quarterbacking, and no mental gymnastics are required in order to 
honestly serve the God of Abraham. 
As is written: “
