PERSONIFICATION OF EVIL THOUGHT IN MEN

I have no doubt about what Bible said concerning Jesus and temptation from the Devil. It is not strange because temptation is common thing in Nigeria where I was born and bred. We have never seen the Devil tempting anybody. It was rather men that we saw everywhere tempting their fellow men in Nigeria. If we are honest, we will see that things like bribery and fraud are done by men, not by the Devil. The people who took bribes in Nigeria did not see the Devil like Jesus saw him in the Biblical story. They were tempted by those who offered to give the bribes. It implied that the Devil was a personification of evil thought in mind of Jesus, not a real individual like they said in religion.

Truth of the matter is that everybody has natural line that divided every individual hearts (chests) into two equal apartments. One of the two is positive mind and the other one is called negative mind. It was story-tellers of old that personified both.

The negative mind was Devil's apartment inside the hearts of men including the mind of Jesus. God was dream of Jesus living in the positive mind. The Devil was there singing praises and chants to God just like David sang to Saul in real life. He was a fantastic sycophant in mind of Jesus. It was the chants and negative activities in mind that were called temptation in the story of Bible.

In addition, let me say it here that making of money is not problem. Nature approved it but the people's moral were too bad and ugly in all the ways. They had polluted moral and poised minds due to benighted and erroneous teaching of religion both in the dark ages and in this present age - 21st century. The morals were corrupted. That was why the goodly and wise ones like Jesus and John the Baptist died wretched in Africa. They made good names but the wicked and religious minds decided to sit on their wealth and frustrate their dreams and plans for greatness and power in life.

Look well! I said that Jesus made good name and died wretched because religious leaders were great evils under the Sun. If I may ask! Nobody paid Jesus and John for their good works to mankind. Why???
