Exposing the Lies of The God Culture Philippines

Welcome back to 100 lies the God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie once again concerns the identification of the Lequios and Lucoes. Last time we looked at Timothy Jay Schwab's misunderstanding of Pigafetta's journal.  Today we will look at his ignorance of Tome Pires' Summa Oriental. Even though Tim does use Tome Pires as a source he does not have much to say about what he writes.  The Lequios of Luzon: Key to Finding Ophir and Chryse. Clue #52 18:31 Tome Pires writes The Leqouis bring swords worth thirty cruzados each  and many of these. Many. Cool. It appears a cruzado is equal to that of a Spanish ducat. 30 ducats in today's value in gold would be about 4,500 US dollars. This is a serious sword and a serious amount of money and they had many of them? Wow. One must wonder if maybe these swords are gold plated perhaps like the daggers of the Ophirians. The Lequios of Luzon: Key to Finding Ophir and Chryse. Clue #52 19:35 The island of Japan accord...

Welcome back to 100 lies the God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie concerns the identification of the Lequios and Lucoes. Because this lie is so intricately weaved I will be breaking it down into several smaller articles. The gist of it is that Timothy Jay Schwab identifies the Lequios and Lucoes people groups as being the same. They are Filipinos from Luzon. As I showed in lie #2 Ferdinand Pinto visited the Lequios islands and charted them at 29 degrees north. That means the Lequios islands are not the Philippines but the Ryukyu Islands. However Tim teaches something completely different which needs to be broken down. The first aspect of this lie comes from Tim's total misunderstanding of Pigafetta's Journal.  The Lequios of Luzon: Key to Finding Ophir and Chryse. Clue #52  13:31 While in Visayas Antonio Pigafetta who traveled with Magellan, historian who chronicled everything, writes from Visayas: Towards the Northwest is the island of Luzon which is at t...

 Welcome back to 100 lies The God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie concerns Timothy Jay Schwab's assertion that LapuLapu killed Magellan as a defiant act rejecting colonialism.  This lie is a direct result of Tim's unfamiliarity with all of the primary sources regarding Magellan's voyage around the world except for Pigafetta's journal.  https://youtu.be/130c3XUuPEs Today is a very special day for the world . It marks the five hundredth anniversary of one of the greatest stories in the fight to stop foreign invaders from coming in and taking over our lands.  Y es, the story of a man and his followers who indeed stopped the invasion, killing their leader Magellan.  Then in a separate encounter killing his replacement and brother-in-law and other leaders and then they chased them out of the country with a fleet of ships.  That’s what Pigafetta’s journal says , and we cover.  This is an inspiration to the whole world  who was be...

Welcome back to 100 lies The God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie concerns Timothy Jay Schwab's assertion that the Philippines is Cattigara which is a place located on Ptolemy's map of the world. This lie is a direct result of Tim's unfamiliarity with all of the primary sources regarding Magellan's voyage around the world except for Pigafetta's journal.  Tim's main and only argument for this erroneous assertion is that Antonio Pigafetta recorded that they set a course for that place and landed at Samar in the Philippines. Thus all other claims are bogus. Cattigara, Philippines. Finding the Land of Gold. Solomon's Gold Series 15C.   18:31 So, as you see on the map here Magellan is headed not just to the Philippines but very specifically to between the 12th and 13th degree north which is known as Samar on the map. Just look at it. There it is. Okay you know like Samaria? Yeah Columbus was going where? To meet up with the lost tribes of Is...

Welcome back to 100 lies The God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie concerns Timothy Jay Schwab's claim that Pigafetta's journal is the only eyewitness account to Magellan's arrival in the Philippines.  This lie leads Tim into several major errors as we shall see in future articles.  Cattigara, Philippines. Finding the Land of Gold. Solomon's Gold Series 15C. 2:00 The problem is well, they ignore history, real history, about as valid as you get such as Pigafetta's journal, the only eyewitness account of Magellan's arrival in the Philippines. That would be a DUH! That is wrong on so many levels and reveals the total ignorance of Timothy Jay Schwab and his alleged research team. It is once more confirmation that there is no research team and that Tim is acting all on his own. The fact is while Pigafetta's journal is a main source of information about the first voyage around the world there are other eyewitness accounts. Does Tim even know t...

At this point I have written almost 100 articles analyzing the so-called research of Timothy Jay Schwab of The God Culture. From all I have seen there is no way The God Culture can be a team. If they are they are certainly awful and have no idea how to do actual research. Here is another glaring instance of this incredibly poor "research" from Timothy Jay Schwab and his alleged team. The Search for King Solomon's Treasure Sourcebook, pg. 148 Nowell's source is out of print but the University of Illinois and University of Michigan allow Limited Search of v. 31 through Hathi Trust Digital Library of the text only of this publishing which affirms on P. 438 the words Nowell is quoting. Here are examples: (https://catalog.hathitrustorg/Record/000681729)  Now, what is going on here you may ask? Tim is citing Charles Nowell who writes: Magellan digested Barbosa's work and with his own hand rewrote one passage, which consisted of a list of places between the Cape of Good ...

In part 12 of The God Culture's Restoring Creation series Timothy Jay Schwab issued a challenge to show him a single verse saying that the Holy Spirit is a creator.  Restoring Creation: Part 12: Who Is Elohim? Gen. 1:1 Understood. First Day. 37:36 So, in the beginning Elohim created the heavens and the Earth. That Elohim is two, the father and the Son. Again, Holy Spirit's there but there's no scripture that ever attributes the Holy Spirit as a Creator. It's just not there. You can try to add it. You can try to say, you know, it's equated in some context somewhere. That's fine go ahead and do that but we don't, uh, we just don't placate those kinds of thinkings. We, we go with what the Bible says. Uh, so that's not his role. It just isn't, uh, in scripture. Uh, if it was His role then show us the scripture. Well you won't because it's not there. Challenge met and accepted. Here is one verse that tells us God created the host of the Heaven...

It is no secret that Timothy Jay Schwab who is The God Culture teaches that the Book of Jubilees is sacred scripture. The problem with that book is that it  exalts the law as God's highest revelation  and wrongly tells us that the Patriarchs were celebrating the feasts spelled out in the Mosaic law. What happens then is that the meaning of the feasts (Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost, Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles) are no longer rooted in the Exodus and lose all their Christological significance as well. Case in point is Tim's teaching about the first day of unleavened bread where he says in no uncertain terms that the meaning of Jesus Christ's crucifixion is rooted in the sacrifice of Isaac and not the Feast of Passover. That means Jesus Christ is not our Passover lamb sacrificed for us. The Miraculous First Day of Unleavened Bread. Far More Than We Are Taught. This Is Awesome!!! 46:44 Messiah didn't follow the timeline of the Passover Lamb eit...

Welcome back to 100 lies The God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie once again concerns Martin Behaim's 1492 Erdapfel globe. Timothy Jay Schwab uses this map to "prove" that it shows the Philippines is the legendary island of Antilia. It's obviously wrong and ridiculous. Let's jump right in. The Island of Antilia has NOTHING to do with the Philippines. Tim cites the Wikipedia entry for this island in his video but he neglects to mention the origin of the legend of this island. It originates from an old Iberian legend, set during the Muslim conquest of Hispania c. 714. Seeking to flee from the Muslim conquerors, seven Christian Visigothic bishops embarked with their flocks on ships and set sail westwards into the Atlantic Ocean, eventually landing on an island ( Antilha ) where they founded seven settlements. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antillia Spanish Christians fleeing Muslim invaders set up a colony on the island of Antilia. That should...
