when was the Bible declared as "God's words", and by who?

Question

nowhere in the Bible did it say that the BIBLE (that very same book that fundies are now using) is God's words. so, when was the Bible declared as "God's words", and BY who?

show me a scripture that says exactly "The BIBLE is Gods words".

hector, if they delete this question it only means one thing: they're scared to be questioned because they are not confident with their answers.

Answer 1

The Council of Nicea in 325 C.E. decided the Trinity and then followed several councils that determined that the Bible was God's word.

So far as is known, the first church council which acted upon this question was the Synod of Laodicea which met in 365. This council rejected the Apocryphal books contained in Augustine's list, but admitted Baruch and the Epistle of Jeremiah. It excluded Revelation.

Various councils, following this, adopted canonical lists. One council would admit certain books and the next council would reject them. The third council of Carthage in 397 adopted the list of Augustine which admitted the Apocryphal books and Revelation and rejected Lamentations.

The actions of none of these councils were unanimous or decisive. The list of books adopted was adopted simply by a majority vote. A large minority of every council refused to accept the list of the majority. Some advocated the admission of books that were rejected; others opposed the admission of books that were accepted. As late as the seventh century (629), at the sixth Council of Constantinople, many different canonical lists were presented for ratification.

Answer 2

It wasn't written in order for God to get residuals or copyright income. He inspired others to record His words and/or pass them along to future generations by spoken words. At the start of this great documentation, there were no tape recorders, computers, or video cameras. (Actually there were none of these in Washington's time either, so we had to write things down and pass them along verbally, too.)

If you refuse to believe in God, or the Bible, then just walk away. You won't be judged by a Christian...we don't judge and then pretend to follow Jesus' command in Matthew 7, then judge you anyway.

You really can't tear down a 6.1 billion person community of Christians on the Internet. So, why not find other past times that will better validate your time...after all, time is short.

Christians confessed that they are Corrupting and Interpolating Bible

Concept of trinity Trinity is taken from 1 John, chapter 5 verse no 7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one."
In Bible (R.S.V.) revised by 32 Christian scholars of the highest eminence backed by 50 different co-operating denominations, this verse which is the keystone of the Christian faith has been removed as an INTERPOLATION, as a fabrication and as a concoction. It has not been expunged from the Bible by the Muslims or non-Christians, but by 32 Christian scholars as a concoction fabrication because this verse does not exist in the original manuscript. We Muslims must congratulate the galaxy of D.D.’s (Doctors of Divinity) who have been honest enough to eliminate another lie from the English R.S.V. Bible, thus bringing it closer to the teachings of Islam and the Glorious Qur’an.

There are more than 3,500 versions of bible in this world.

Seventh Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witnesses.
First Roman Catholic Bible was published at Rheims in 1582. Second one published at Douay in 1609. These called RCV version of Bible. The Protestants regarded 7 books as ‘apocrypha’ (doubtful authority) and removed them from Bible. (The Book of Judith, The Book of Tobias, The Book of Baruch, The Buck of Esther, etc.) Jesus pbuh said in the book of Revelation Chapter 22 Verse 18-19 ". . . If any man shall add to these things (or delete) God shall add unto him the plagues written in this Book." On deleting 7 books from bible, the Catholics call ‘cult of Christianity’ to the Seventh Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witnesses.

Answer 4

The Bible itself says it is from God, mankind’s Creator

2 Tim. 3:16, 17: “All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.”

Answer 5

Jesus said it is the Word of God, and every man shall live by it. Jesus also said the scripture cannot be broken.

Jesus is called the Word of God in the Bible.

Jesus said "My Word will judge you". Jesus is the Word throughout.
