The HOly Bible is to to tell us who God is . what sin is, who the devil is and how to battle the devil according to Gods word. IT is to tell us who we are in Christ, and let us know we have the HOly Spirit power to overcome sin.
God wants us to Know HIm and of the plan HE has for us all and to tell us we each have the right to choose for Him or for the devil. There are no other options. God wants us to know we can be forgiven for our sins, and given a new heart that will hate sin as Jesus hated sin and that thru obedience, as Jesus obeyed the Father, we have the power to overcome all sin. HE tells us of Heaven, and the plan of salvation, and of all HE has to send to us, blessings to overflow and HE also warns us of how badly the devil wants to be sure that we receive none of this, and that we lose the prize of salvation that we were given. Devil tells us we cant stop sinning, or that God isnt real, anything and everything he can to keep us from the full word of God and the plan HE calls us to.
We are all called, but only a few will hear , receive and answer the full Call of God IFYOU LOVE ME
That is our high calling. YEs, we are saved by JEsus, absolutely, no other way, and Jesus is our example of just how to do everything. IF ONLY ALL WOULD HEAR AND RECEIVE THE FULL CALL OF GOD.
We are called from darkness into the bright light of God, to Gods authority and to the authority HE gives us over the devil. Once we do that, we can receive fully from God. Blessings still come from obedience, and disobedience still leads to curse. absolutely. Preach on, press on with Jesus, and you will be blessed to overflow. I ask God to bless you to fullness... Press on....

The original teachings of Jesus was to reestablish that which was lost from the previous scriptures or the old testament. But The Roman empire and King Constantine have changed the bible to fit their own idea. Jesus originally taught karma, Reincarnation, vegetarianism and no one goes to hell eternally. He was trying to give pure religious principles but hardly a Christian understand what he originally taught the Original Christian Essenes do google gospelofthenazirenes.com for he original teachings of Jesus. Following the original teachings of Jesus will set you free.

"For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." - 2 Peter 1:21.


The Bible claims special power:

"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." - Romans 10:17.

I am not belong to Christianity, but I can say that BIBLE is a Constitution for human beings irrespective of nationality and time tested. But it does not mean that the BIBLE has thrown away every other religion.

Answer 8

That verse is Jesus comand to saul.

The bible was given to us to so that we could understand God's will and know what sin is.

Answer 9

for training, rebuke & correction in rightousness.... and I believe that the word is God therefore He is showing himself thru His Holy word that we may know Him....so for all those who say that God will not show Himself, they are sadly mistaken because He shows Himself in every word (truth) of the Bible....God Bless!!
