The Demonization of Nimrod

(FORT WORTH, TEXAS)

IT APPEARS AS THOUGH AN EFFORT IS BEING MADE TO DEMONIZE NIMROD AND THE OTHER DESCENDANTS OF CUSH. THE BIBLE STATES THAT NIMROD WAS "A MIGHTY HUNTER BEFORE THE LORD," WHICH DOES NOT IN ANY MANNER EXPRESS AN ANTITHETICAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GOD & NIMROD. IF WE ARE GOING TO GIVE AS MUCH WEIGHT TO THE WRITINGS OF OTHER CULTURES AS WE DO THE HOLY WRIT, THEN WE ARE CREATING OTHER CANNONS AND PLACING THEM PARALLEL TO THE HOLY WORD OF GOD.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ANY OTHER WRITINGS FROM ANY OTHER CULTURE OR INDIVIDUAL ARE EVEN REMOTELY TO BE USED TO SUPPLEMENT THE WORD OF GOD. AFTER ALL, THE BIBLE DOES SAY NOTHING ADDED AND NOTHING TAKEN AWAY.
