Do you have a Bible? Hebrews 12:2
2006-08-24 18:15:23 · update #2
Yes, I do. With all my heart, soul and mind.

Yes. I do believe that the autographs are the inerrant, inspired word of God. I believe that the Bible we have to do is only as inerrant and inspired to the degree that it matches up with the originals. So when something like the long ending in Mark, or the adulterous woman passage are found to not be in the earlier copies, thus making it very highly unlikely that it's in the originals. I can safely conclude that those parts are not the written word of God. Nor any translational errors, such as found in the KJV or NIV.

The Word of God, written Word of God will defeat Satan anywhere, any place, any time. Listen close now. This is the Foundation. Now that is truth: the written Word of God. But we have to be careful how we handle it. And we want to let our faith rest directly upon the written Word of God. I believe it with all my soul, heart, mind, and being. It's given to the human race and for all times and for all ages, because it is a written Word of God. When we have the written Word of God laying before us, and the Holy Spirit here performing and showing the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, with the Divine promises written here, that, "whatsoever thing you desire when you pray, believe you receive it, and you shall have it.", what do you have to do then? And Jesus proved right there by His action, that the weakest saint on earth can beat the devil upon the written Word of God. Outside of that plan, I don't care how much wisdom's behind it, how many fine millions of dollars of buildings, how many schools of theology, how many holy men and holy this, and holy, holy, holy, makes no difference at all; if one Word of God's Bible is denied, it's of the devil. "...Upon this rock, upon the written Word of God being spiritual revealed, I'll build My Church, and the gates of hell cannot prevail against It." It's the written Word of God, and, "Any man that adds one thing to it, or takes anything from it, the same will be taken, his part out of the Book of Life." The initial way of having faith is by hearing the written Word of God. A man (Jesus) that could take the written Word of God and make it come to pass right before them, and still by their traditions they turned Him down. How we can put our confidence in this written Word of God because It's so inspired, that every phase of It hangs together, and It's drawing a picture for us of what God was, and what God is, and always will be. In other words, you took the Bible instead of the creed. And this 2006, anything that sows discrepancy, contrary to the written Word of God, or puts any private interpretation to It, is the seed of discrepancy.

No I don't. All the books of the Bible (even if as is claimed they were originally passed down from God) were and still are written and interpreted by man. They have been changed, re-arranged, edited, omitted and pretty much twisted then used as a tool to control the masses. Such is the state of anything touched by the hand of man. Don't get me wrong it's not just the bible all ancient religious and philosophical writings have suffered the same fate.

I believe that the Bible (Old Testament and New Testament) is the written word of God written by men who were inspired by God to write what they wrote. God didn't move the pen, allowing each writer to express himself in terms of style and cultural background while maintaining His message through the writings.

The Bible was written by men who were influenced by the Holy Ghost, which means that the Bible was definately written by God, Himself.

all holy books are the words of God. but the bible was misused and altered by priests during the history since they wanted to gain power by making use of religion and the original bible did not let them do so. the Bible that is now available is not exactly what Jesus presented to people. only some parts of it have remained unchanged.

Other than the first 5 books, they are writen under the spirit of the lord.
Moses (the first 5 books) was dictated to by God, Letter by Letter.

If you haven't read it from front to back your opinion is uneducated and therefor dismiss-able to any one who has.There isn't one sentence in the Bible that has ever ben proven wrong. It was definitely written by God through man.
