It says BATS. You said bats are not mentioned in the Bible.

So either the Bible lies, or you lied. Which is it?

James wrote:

The Bible contains no bats.

The Bible says it contains bats:

Isaiah 2:20
In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of
gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the
moles and to the BATS;

Leviticus 11:19
And the stork, the heron after her kind,
and the lapwing, and the BAT.

Deuteronomy 14:18
And the stork, and the heron after her kind,
and the lapwing, and the BAT.

James spoke presumptuously. Many times he has claimed that when he gets
"new light" he accepts the new light. But here he was shown new light
and instead of accepting it and repenting of his error, he has shown
his pride by GASLIGHTING. Like any good cultist he knows that if he
admits to being wrong, this calls into question everything he has said
or claimed to believe, so he must not admit to being wrong, even when
it is painfully obvious. Everyone mark this wicked Pharisee and false
teacher and avoid him like a disease!

James: "The bible contains no bats."

Bible: "Bat ... bat ... BATS ..."

Score: James: 0. Bible: 3.

As I have said before, o thou raisin-picker, you cherry-pick and split
raisins to prop up your PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS, then declare that some cherry-picked verse agrees with your notions all along. How long will
you refuse correction? How long will you reject the truth and prefer
your religion over the Lord's word?

How Watchtower does eschatology and interpretation:

1. Start with a conclusion, such as soul sleep or torture stake.
2. Scour the bible and find isolated verses to support the conclusion.
3. Interpret the verses in light of said conclusion.
4. Demand obedience to said conclusion.

How honest disciples do eschatology and interpretation:

1. Read the bible and study it as a WHOLE as the whole counsel of God.
2. Interpret scripture in light of the rest of scripture as a WHOLE.
3. Read out of the scripture rather than into it.
4. Reject interpretation that is based upon authority or tradition.
5. See what the scripture says, without external influence to interpret.
6. Never use scripture to prop up a visible institution or power
structure, for Jesus said he came to pull down all authority and power
of all religion, and that his kingdom "cometh not with observation".

James has his idol, the Watchtower. He twists ever passage of scripture
to support and justify his idol. Thus he can never understand what the scripture actually says. He is unaware that the Bible constantly
defines human-made institutions as idols. Jesus came to establish a
temple made "without hands" which is INVISIBLE. You cannot observe it
with your eyes or carnal mind.

The carnally minded man wants a institution with laws and a governing
body to be the kingdom. This is idolatry. Jesus established an
INVISIBLE kingdom of creation, that can only be entered into by the
spirit, by faith, not by sight. That kingdom has been on the earth
since the time of the cross, and it continues to this day. No
incorporated religious organization has any part in the Kingdom of God.

If James wishes to avoid being taken to the woodshed then he will cease cross-posting his idolatrous blasphemy to the alt.bible newsgroup. I
don't read the other groups that he spams with his cult fishing bait. So
if he stops spamming his idolatry here in alt.bible, he won't endure
being embarrassed by the truth of the Bible.

Your Watchtower and Kingdom Hall have nothing to do with the Kingdom of
God. The Kingdom of God never needed any help from state-licensed
corporations, which are given a permit from the pagan state to operate
in the market.

There is your mark of the beast, that allows you to "buy and sell" in
the market. A religious organization must incorporate and apply for a
tax permit from the beast to contract and transact in the economy of
the beast. If you want to enter the Kingdom of God you must remove the tax-exempt seal of anti-christ from your own head. "Ye cannot serve God
and mammon."

So although James feigns objection to pagan symbols, his religious
organization has accepted and profits from the greatest of all pagan
rites: incorporation. The first century Christians were fed to lions
for refusing to incorporate under Caesar.

You must get the vampire bats out of your Witchtower belfry to be free.
