i have seen that on a movie, and i thought it was a movie thing but since i read all this bible fans i am amazed at you, guys and dolls...I live in a country that was ruled by the church not so long ago, so in here there is plenty of hypocritical christian people who follow the rule "do what i say but not what i do"...but many of you beat them all...Reading the bible withouth questioning anything, believing it word for word , quoting it and thinking that just because it is in the bible your opinions are right...(bear in mind that the bible is full of contradictions)

funny part of this question is that it falls under book divination, you can put a picture of jesus on a magic eight ball, but its still a magic eighball, people have used this practice with many books, funny

Lots of people read the bible and will open it and think that God is talking to them. Well I am a guilty party. Now the bible is not contradictory and people just don't know how to read and understand the bible. Lots of false teachings but the bible is all truth. /the word is God. Read Gensis Chapter 1

The Bible is not full of contradictions. And yes I have opened the Bible at random and found answers.

That's called 'Bibliomancy.' It is discouraged by most modern Christians. Ancient Jews and Christians used a similar method, except that they specific passages set aside for each day of the year. In Judaism, this method is called "pesher." There isn't much difference between this and the Taoist I Ching.

you have a very good point. as a christian, i realize that the bible is very flawed in many areas. even the NT has some contradictions about women.

Yes, there really are people like that. I'd prefer to use a Tarot deck myself, but I guess whatever works for each person.

2 Chronicles 6
4 When your people Israel have been defeated by an enemy because they have sinned against you and when they turn back and confess your name, praying and making supplication before you in this temple, 25 then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel and bring them back to the land you gave to them and their fathers.
I follow that God will forgive me and I should forgive those who sin against me.
