Not at all, there are thousands of denominations to prove it.

God has alawys been clear as to what he wants, it is so easy that people make it hard.They try to add to the bible and to Salvation.The simple truth is that God wants his people to believe in him.He sent his son Jesus down to Earth to die for our sins.Jesus died a perfect person without sin so he could cover all of ours.and if we accpect this and believe in him by asking him into our hearts and asking him to forgive us of are sins we will be saved and go to heaven when we die.It is very simple.Christinaty is not a religon it is a relationship with Christ.Being a christian is not walking around being a nerd not being able to do any thing.I am a Christian and I have friends and listen to all kinds of music and also know I have a father in Heaven that I can talk to when ever I want.If you have any more questions E-Mail me.

Well here's how it has worked for me.
Peice by peice and little by little things in the bible have been taught to me. I can get something out of every bible study but I have often not gotten everything out of every bible study. The thing is, is that in your own rate of spiritual growth, things are explained and ministered to you.... something I may have been taught when I was 10 but only got the 10 year old message (which spoke to my 10 year old soul) would be different from the one that I get now at 37 years old. See? So not always does God's word make perfect sense, no.

Eventually you get it, but I don't think that anyone fully gets everything 100%

Yes and no... for me personally it has not always been easy to know exactly what God wants me to do... but I think He makes it clear what He wants on a large scale.

Of course I have always been 100% clear about all of those things. It is just that different people and societies have different needs depending on their collective state of consciousness, so answers are always varying.

It's mapped about PERFECTLY in the Yad ha-Chazaka ("The Strong Hand"), and Ha'Torah (The Torah)..
---------------------
Many Jewish laws are not directly mentioned in the Torah, but are derived from textual hints, which were expanded orally, and eventually written down in the Talmud and the Mishnah. The Rabbinic interpretation of the Oral Laws are called Gemara.

Jewish tradition holds that the Torah has been transmitted in parallel with an oral tradition. Jews point to texts of the Torah, where many words and concepts are left undefined and many procedures mentioned without explanation or instructions; the reader is required to seek out the missing details from the oral sources. For example, many times in the Torah it says that/as you are/were shown on the mountain in reference of how to do a commandment (Exodus 25:40).

According to classical rabbinic texts this parallel set of material was originally transmitted to Moses at Sinai, and then from Moses to Israel. At that time it was forbidden to write and publish the oral law, as any writing would be incomplete and subject to misinterpretation and abuse. However, after persecution and exile, this restriction was lifted when it became apparent that in writing was the only way to ensure that the Oral Law could be preserved.

Around 200 CE, Rabbi Judah haNasi took up the compilation of a nominally written version of the Oral Law, the Mishnah. Other oral traditions from the same time period not entered into the Mishnah were recorded as "Baraitot" (external teaching), and the Tosefta. Other traditions were written down as Midrashim. Over the next four centuries this small, ingenious record of laws and ethical teachings provided the necessary signals and codes to allow the continuity of the same Mosaic Oral traditions to be taught and passed on in Jewish communities scattered across both of the world's major Jewish communities, (from Israel to Babylon).

After continued persecution more of the Oral Law had to be committed to writing. A great many more lessons, lectures and traditions only alluded to in the few hundred pages of Mishnah, became the thousands of pages now called the Gemara. Gemara is Aramaic, having been compiled in Babylon. The Hebrew word for it is Talmud. The Rabbis in Israel also collected their traditions and compiled them into the Jerusalem Talmud. Since the greater number of Rabbis lived in Babylon, the Babylonian Talmud has precedence should the two be in conflict.

Orthodox Jews and Conservative Jews accept these texts as the basis for all subsequent halakha and codes of Jewish law, which are held to be normative.

Of course not.

Communication with deities, by its very nature, must be received (and given) obliquely; direct contact with a deity causes insanity.
They are NOT human despite the anthropomorphizing we do to make ourselves more comfortable with them.

Good news everyone!

Extensive research into the ancient text known as the "Bible" has shown that this God character, whoever he is, was a bigger flip-flopper than any politician of the 21st century.

He has been very clear but it is us that muddy the waters with our interpretation of things when we don't really want to do it His way. So we try to make things say things different to suit our desires.

Everything believed about god was thought up and written by people. There is absolutely nothing from god.
