Inerrant Lie #41

Three books of scripture are attributed to the Big Solomy, the son of David, whose practical 'wisdom' compelled the violent overthrow of the Davidic kingdom by ten of the twelve tribes of Israel. Some of the psalms are likewise attributed to the Big Solomy.

Some say the only thing amiss about Solomon was his penchant for the flesh of 'strange women'. The Big Solomy's sexual perversion is, however, more the symptom of disease than the disease itself [Ecclesiastes 3:18]. Ecclesiastes 1:2 makes it clear that the Big Solomy entertained deeper frustrations than strange flesh alone.

In Ecclesiastes 1:2, Solomon writes, "Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity." This is an obvious lie, and one retold by the 'sweet' psalmist's preacher- son four more times in the twelve chapters of Ecclesiastes; the final instance appearing in the eighth verse of the final chapter.

Is God vanity? Is his creation? what about his children? what about his Christ? Certainly all is not vanity. This requires no great documentation to prove, but it does beg the question: what 'God' did the Big Solomy preach about? If not Satan, what 'God' is all vanity all the time?

Mind you: I'm not saying the Big Solomy disdained the words and work of God in calling them vanity. His 'God' doesn't think that way. It is precisely because Satan perceives God as vain that he envys him and all he says and does. Fools get Gold Fever for fools' gold.

As such, this lie that "all is vanity" is true to the one who wrote it and to the fools who love and praise him as 'the greatest king ever.' The lie is the implication that Solomon's 'God' is the same as Jesus' Father. These are not equal, and Solomon's own words aptly describe the difference between them.

"There is [God and his children] that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is [the Big Solomy and his 'God'] that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty [Proverbs 11:24]." The latter half of this selection from Proverbs, is the most apropos epitaph of Solomon and his 'God' I know of. For them all is vanity.

Another lie from "God's ineffable, inerrant word": A number of times in the 'Holy Bible' canon, the LORD is identified...
