She said the New Testament is <em>not<\/em> the Word of God. Said the Bible is \u201cproblematic.\u201d Said we need a \u201cThird Testament.\u201d Said if certain pages offend\u2014rip them out. Pour them out. Rewrite the thing. &#8230; what she\u2019s describing is not Christianity. Not even a corrupted version trying to hang on. She\u2019s not struggling under the weight of the text\u2014she\u2019s rejecting the authority of the text.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, the Bible does not allow for female bishops (e.g. Titus 3:1-2). She is also a lesbian, which is warned against in Romans 1:26. She has a &#8216;wife.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Yvette Flunder also has short hair, which is not appropriate for a women, it is shameful:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>2 Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. 3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved. 6 For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. (1 Corinthians 11:2-6)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, Yvette Flunder wanting a third testament and ripping scriptures out of the Bible should not come as a surprise since she obviously flaunts violating what it teaches. She does not accept that the real Creator God gave the Bible (see also the free eBook: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/BibleCanon.pdf\">Who Gave the World the Bible? The Canon: Why do we have the books we now do in the Bible? Is the Bible complete?<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>She, who claims to be some type of a Christian teacher clearly does not believe the following from the Apostle Paul:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em><strong>All Scripture<\/strong> <\/em>means every verse. Jesus taught:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>4 &#8216;Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.&#8217; (Matthew 4:4)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Bible, which Yvette Flunder wants to change warns and teaches:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. &#8230;13 &#8230; evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. (2 Timothy 3:1-8,13)<\/p>\n<p>18 &#8220;There is no fear of God before their eyes.&#8221; (Romans 3:18)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But, sadly, her comment about another testament is not unique to her.

Does PETA have trouble identifying the days of the week? Did PETA leave out statements about God giving humans dominion? Does the Bible show God used animal skins for a covering for Adam and Eve or plant-based clothes? What did PETA do to the account of Cain and Abel? Does the PETA version of Genesis push a false vegan gospel from God\u2019s people? In this interview, Dr. Thiel quotes several passages from PETA\u2019s version of the Book of Genesis as well as points out what the Bible teaches in Genesis as well as scriptures that provide for the truly ethical treatment of animals.
