The Bible thrives on being "high and lofty". Something out-of-reach is its' signature. The Bible has been manipulated, concealed and now misunderstood. How can God be the direct author of such darkness and aloofness that fills this "black book of woes." People have been dying, still are dying, and will continue to die, if we don't find a solution to this God paradox.

It's a book of stories. Nothing more, nothing less.

The Bible has not been manipulated and there is evidence backing up the Bible such as the Dead Sea Scrolls. When found and compared them, the only thing found missing was the crossing of the T's and the dotting of the I's. Also Archaeological findings prove dates and times of incidences claimed in the Bible. And its human nature that is always trying to conceal and and deceive people from the truth. And why would we want to live an everlasting life of deceitfulness,murder,adultery you mention it, man kind is the only one carrying out these deeds and not God.

Is it God's fault that a lot of people misinterpet the bible and use it to control the masses and gain power and prestidge.
The bible has been misused by religious fanitics that is for sure. But it looks like to me if your religion tells you to do something that the ten commandments tell you not to a lite should go off and something say don't do that.
I mean that was written in stone by the hand of god.
So don't let a religion teach you that it is okay to lie, steal, commit adultry and be unkind to old people. Or most important God hates violence the bible says that is why he destroyed the people in Noah's day. So no killing.
NO matter who says that is a good idea.

Go to Romans 10: 9-13 read very carefully and follow these instructions. Then you will be able to understand. Until then, be careful what thy saith. The wrath could fall on you, and it is an awful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God.

The bible is only a mirror to show us our true selves and that without God we are lost. Jesus died on the cross to save us from the punishment that is required living under the law so that we wouldnt have to. The only sin that will ever put someone into hell is rejecting their creator.

In God through our Lord Jesus Christ, there is no darkness.The power of HIS HOLY SPIRIT has preserved His written word & it will last until eternity. Man hasnt the power to destroy God or HIS WORD........sinful rebellion by humanity & the power of satan will not prevail either. ( Matthew 24:35) HEAVEN AND EARTH WILL PASS AWAY, BUT MY WORDS WILL NEVER PASS AWAY.....<>< <><

People will die long after the god paradox is solved. Death is inevitable.
