Introduction to this, the fifth edition of This Good Riddle

What is going on here?
One of the events which is occurring here is that the words of the most high God are being restored to view. Why is that necessary? Because they were obscured from view by the addition of words which were not those of the most high God. Why were those words added? The words which were not the words of the most high God were added to the words of the most high God because the most high God said, "Love your neighbor as yourself." One of the consequences of that command is that the most high God loves His neighbors as He loves Himself. The most high God therefore preserves the words of His neighbors in the same books in which He preserves His own words. The disclosure of which words are whose words must nevertheless eventually be made. The time for said disclosure has come. The said disclosure is being accomplished in this document.

Authorship:
For the purposes of this document, some books of the KJV are assumed to have the same author. A chart of the assumed authorship is available here.

Validity:
All of the statements discovered to the present date to be valid because they were confirmed by two (or more) authors of books in the main manuscripts of the Christian Bible (the Alexandrinus, the Sinaiticus and the Vaticanus) have been collected into this document. The statements which have been discovered to date to be valid because they were confirmed by the Book of Mormon in conjunction with the Christian Bible have also been included in this document.

Main entities:
It seems clear from This Good Riddle that the Holy Ghost is either the Most High God (MHG), or an identical copy. It also seems clear that one or the other or both of them have interacted with humanity in various places and at various times in order to accomplish His/Their goal (or goals).

Who, where, when:
Most of the statements in This Good Riddle are about a particular phase of this  prolonged interaction between the MHG and/or the Holy Ghost and humanity. This particular phase of the interaction described in This Good Riddle mainly involved a man named Jesus, and was centered in Jerusalem, and occurred approximately two thousand years ago.

Main outline:
The bulk of the statements on the homepage of This Good Riddle recite the events in the phase of the interaction which occurred in that area at the time of Jesus. They are statements about the birth, life, crucifixion, entombment and what is commonly called the resurrection (more correctly called the raising) of the man named Jesus of Nazareth (aka Jesus, Jesus Christ, Christ, the Messiah, etc.).

Certainties:
The most that can be said with certainty about the sequence of events in This Good Riddle is that Jesus was born before he lived, lived before he was crucified, was crucified before his body was entombed, and that his body was entombed before he was raised.

Uncertainties:
Although the sequence of some other events can often be correctly deduced, this is not always true. So nobody should use This Good Riddle to construct a chain of logic the validity of which depends on Jesus having necessarily recited one parable before another, or even that he necessarily always recited both (or all) parables at each place he was. Although it is probable that he recited many of them at many times in many places, it is not now always known which parables he recited in which place. Nor is it now known in what order he recited them at each instance. (Additional comments about the sequence of words, and therefore of events, are available here.)

Navigation:
The essential statements have been put into paragraphs and the paragraphs have been put into a sequence as outlined above and numbered accordingly. Each number is a link to another page which divides each paragraph into segments. Each segment has been assigned a letter in addition to the number. Each number-letter combination assigned to a segment is a link to yet another page which shows the verses in the KJV of the Christian Bible and/or the Book of Mormon which contain the words in that segment. Some segments were so large that it was convenient to subdivide them into sub-segments. In those instances, the sub-segments were assigned a number-letter-number combination which similarly links to a further page which shows the KJV and/or the Book of Mormon verses. (Additional navigational details are mentioned here.)

Terms of Use:
Viewing this web site constitutes acceptance of these terms of use. This web site is only for informational purposes. This web site is therefore presented on an "as is" basis.

This introduction having been made, onward to This Good Riddle, or to some other segment of essential testimony.
