Do modern Christians understand that they're interpreting a book that hasn't changed since the Middle Ages? I mean they're still thinking that Jesus is to be some kind of feudal Lord presiding over a kingdom and we are all his serfs living just to serve him. They forget that many teachings of The Bible were deliberately distorted or omitted during that time mainly as a way to ensure social order and to command obedience to the Catholic Church.
If we were to read the ORIGINAL teachings that were included in The Bible it would be totally unrecognizable to most people.
