Heresies:
One ordinary definition of the word “heresy” is:
Heresy is the rejection of established beliefs of a religious body, or adherence to “other beliefs”.

This definition views heresy from the point of view of humans. If this definition were to be re-written from the point of view of the creator, then it would read:
Heresy is the rejection of my established beliefs, and/or the adherence to “other beliefs”.

According to this latter definition, Adam and Eve became heretics when they rejected the beliefs of the creator and adhered to other beliefs. One way to summarize the subsequent history of Adam and Eve, and their descendants, would be to say that most of them were heretics most of the time. This situation existed for approximately 3,000 years, at which time a copy of the creator entered a human and was eventually killed by other humans.

One result, of the physical death of the copy of the creator, was that the penalty for sins, other than heresy, was paid on behalf of everybody who at least professed belief in the creator. Another result of the physical death of the copy of the creator was that the copy of the creator was resurrected, and thereby made to be immortal.

One result of the physical life, death and resurrection of the copy of the creator was that the beliefs of the creator were established again. This situation was soon changed because of the activities of heretics. One of their activities was to insert their false beliefs into the text of the document which purported to be an accurate record of the physical life, death and resurrection of the copy of the creator. This document was eventually called the New Testament.

The New Testament was therefore in the same condition as the Old Testament which was purported to be an accurate record of Adam and Eve and their descendants; but was not an accurate record because it had also been altered by heretics. This situation existed for approximately 1,800 years, at which time another record of the events (which had begun with Adam and Eve) was provided to some humans. This new record was eventually called the Book of Mormon (BOM).

The BOM was also soon altered by heretics. So the BOM did not achieve its purpose which was to unite the adherents of the Old Testament with the adherents of the New Testament. Instead, an additional group of heretics was formed. This situation existed for approximately 180 years, at which time a fourth and final record of the events (which had begun with Adam and Eve) was provided.

The fourth record of events was provided by a novel method. The novel method prevents heretics from altering the fourth record. One way of summarizing the heretic-proof method would be to say that the fourth record consists of parts of the Old Testament, and parts of the New Testament and parts of the BOM. One result of its being composed of parts of documents, which are already widely distributed, is that it is impossible to change it in any way without the change being readily detected by simply comparing the new fourth document to the relevant parts of the existing three documents.

This heretic-proof method causes the question: what are the relevant parts of the Old Testament, the New Testament, and the BOM? One way to summarize the answer would be to say that the relevant parts are those which contain the same words although they were written by different authors. One of the results of the requirement, that the parts contain the same words, is that the 1769 edition of the King James Version (KJV) of the Old and the New Testaments is the only version of the Old and New Testaments which can be compared to the BOM. This is true because the BOM was written by using the words of the 1769 edition of the KJV, not by using the words of any other edition or of any other version.

The meaning of the word “contain” is slightly different than the meaning of the phrase “consist of”. For instance, Isaiah 7:14 contains the words of NE2 17:14; but it does not consist of the words of NE2 17:14. In order to clearly show this difference of meaning, these two verses will be compared below.

NE2 17:14 Therefore, the Lord himself shall give you a sign–Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and shall bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

This example also shows the fact that repetitive words are sometimes omitted. Other instances, in which repetitive words were omitted, abound. For instance, Isaiah 40:4 and Luke 3:5, which are compared below.
Isaiah 40:4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:
Luke 3:5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;

Their composite, with the repetitive words re-inserted, is shown below.
Every valley shall be [made low] and every mountain and hill shall be [made] low and the crooked shall be made straight and the rough [shall be made straight].

This particular instance was chosen because it shows one of the ways in which extraneous words were inserted by the heretics. For instance, the extraneous word “exalted” was inserted in Isaiah 40:4 in place of one of the omitted repetitive phrases: “made low”. Another instance was that the extraneous word “smooth” was inserted in Luke 3:5 in place of the one of the omitted repetitive words: “straight”.

One of the labels for the extraneous words is the label “leaven”. This label was used in Matthew 13:33 and in Luke 13:21 which are compared below.
Matthew 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Luke 13:21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

Their composite, with the repetitive words re-inserted, is show below.
Is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole [three measures of meal] was leavened.

In this composite, the phrase “three measures of meal” is a mention of the Old Testament, the New Testament, and the BOM, for the reason which was already mentioned further above, namely, that the 1769 edition of the KJV is the only version of the Old and the New Testaments which contain some of the words of each other, and some of the words of the BOM. That is to say that no other trio of documents, which purport to be a record of the events which began with Adam and Eve, mesh in this way.

The fact, that the composite of the words which are contained in portions of the KJV and the BOM are the words which the creator originally spoke, is mentioned in three places: Deuteronomy 19:15; Matthew 18:16; and 2 Corinthians 13:1. These three verses are therefore compared below.

Deuteronomy 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
Matthew 18:16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
2 Corinthians 13:1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

Their composite is shown below.
In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

This composite causes the question: established to be what? This question is answered in Deuteronomy 8:3, Matthew 4:4, and Luke 4:4. They are therefore compared below.
Deuteronomy 8:3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.
Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Luke 4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Their composite is shown below.
He answered, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

The combination of these two composites, with the repetitive words re-inserted, is shown below.
He answered, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word [that proceedeth out of the mouth of God] be established [to be] a word [that proceedeth out of the mouth of God].

This combination of these two composites was used to establish which words of the Gospels proceeded out of the mouth of God, and which words did not. The words, which were established to have proceeded out of the mouth of God, are available at http://thisgoodriddle.com  Everything else contains heresies.
