What do you believe about the Bible, and Why? - April 25th, 2012, 05:13 PM
Some think it's a good book.

Others think it's a book of do's and don'ts.

Some think it's the work of men.

Others think it's the work of God.

Some think it's inerrant.

What do you think about the Bible and why?




Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same.

It is the inerrant work of God... If you don't believe this, you call God a liar, and cannot be Christian

Would you mind defining inerrant?

You have levelled some serious charges here. And would you please show me where the scripture states that if you don't believe the Bible to be inerrant you cannot be a Christian?

Is the Bible the same thing as the scripture John?

Would you mind defining both terms?

Which part? The Torah (first five books)? The entire "Old Testament" as Christians call it. The Christian New Testament?





I believe that the Universe is one being, all its parts are different expressions of the same energy,
and they are all in communication with each other, therefore parts of one organic whole.
This whole is in all its parts so beautiful, and is felt by me to be so intensely in earnest, that I am compelled to love it and to think of it as divine

I left it open for a reason. Feel free to discuss what you believe about the Bible.

All are welcome.

No, if you don't believe it you don't believe God said it. Therefore, you would not be calling God a liar. You would be assuming human beings are incorrect about their belief that it's directly from God.

Would you mind defining the purpose of this thread? Wait-I know. It's a talk show thread:

"What do you believe about the Bible, and Why?... Some think.. Others think...Some think... Others think... Some think.."

I think it's the work of men. I think the Torah is holy and sacred to the Jews for good reason. It is a book of "do's and don't" to an extent. We didn't just leave it at that though. The Rabbis have debate, argued and expounded on it for centuries.

The "New Testament" is irrelevant to me but I understand that it's sacred for Christians regardless of what I think about it.

Then don't. That isn't going to stop me from pointing out your illogical comments.

Hey Nutso,

I see that you are able to repeat what I say. A parrot can do that. That doesn't speak to your intelligence.

I asked you a question. If you're not going to answer it, how about just not saying anything at all?

Crazy doesn't help anyone. If you have some truth, bring it. If you can't bring anything then just do us all a favor and shut up. OK?

The OP is about what you believe about the Bible. If you can't answer the question then just take a hike.

Then debate with me. You made a statement, I asked you to clarify it. Are you going to?
