Have you read the bible front to back?

Question

And not just nit pick what you want to read...I mean in an all linear reading of it.

If yes, do you you think this book is somehow divine?

I noticed a lot of atheist have read the bible cover to cover...

that says something...

Answer 1

Yup.
It is one of the worst works of fiction I've ever read.
Honestly, if it happened upon an editors desk nowadays, it would have been shredded after the 3d page.

Answer 2

Yes, I have read the bible cover to cover several times. I have also read the translated Koran, and several other books held to be "divine". I do not personally find them to be divine in any way. I am an atheist, and have been for 12 years. It will take a lot more than a book to get me to change my mind about my beliefs.

Answer 3

Yes I have except I did skip some of the psalms but I took classes on it in college so I had to. No I do no think that it is divine at all in fact I found the creation of it to have been quite interesting though.

Answer 4

I read it back to front just to see what it was like.



Just kidding. Yes, I have read most of it. I think it is one of the most horrible books out there (take a look at my previous two questions to get an idea why).

Divine? It reads no better than any mythology.

Answer 5

yes, i have.
and i deduced their are two distinct gods discussed.

one is a Israelite who claims to have created the universe and be all powerfull.

the other claims that the word existed before God and that God became the WORD.

no wonder in the movie schindler's list, the liberating soviet soldier said the Jews were hated in the east. spreading the unbeleivable lies of Jehovah, causing untold wars, probably.

the other god was a harmless Lamb who was SLAIN, that was given power after being SLAIN, thus obviously SLAIN means exactly what it spells, not dead killed forever, like pontius declared Jesus. SLAIN=SiL A I IV(ie I IV=I IIII, to that same pontius) And linear reading of the WORD Lamb shows hidden within Lamb is LarriDI(sealed together) so the I IV=I IIII equals IIII I (upside down)=DI (sealed together). So the larri DI(sealed together) which is IIII I which from another vantage point is a SL A I IV is what some writters called the king of KINGS and Lord of LORDS. And they even preached "all things to glorify Lord God" so italy saw God as DIO cause on His arm was IIII I . which if you had to use words to describe looks like a DIO.

so somehow i fit the description of God and a form of My name is one pretty much every STOP sign in Canada and the USA. see french sign ARRET hids the name /ARRE T, and the english hides the name TOD.

and since some discuss breaking Me, i guess like the bible says God will make His angels the winds. So even though i know you don't beleive the winds that ravaged Califorinia and New Orleans, and Mexico, and recently Atlantic Canada were caused by Me, they bring some comfort to Me.

Answer 6

Yes and yes.

The divinity and wisdom if the Bible cannot be found in most professed "Christians". There is only a small group of people today who truly live by the Bible.

Answer 7

Yes, twice, although I simply scanned the begets (I could only take so much so and so is the father of so and so)..

Nope don't think it's a divine book, simply a book written by men to gain control over other men...

Answer 8

Twice and no I do not the book is divine at all. It is merely the thoughts of different human beings put together in a form that it was never originally intended to be in.

Answer 9

Yes, I have been reading the Bible, front to back for a long time. Yes, it is divinely inspired by Almighty God and through the prophets in the Old Testament and by the actual words of Jesus Christ in the New Testament and those of the disciples in the New Testament.

Answer 10

yes it is very painfull to the christians,but the truth will remain truth, but truth.the bible i read it from page to page.
IT GOT more than 1500 contradiction.is not a holy book.can never lead someone to the right parth.thus why christians are always confused.the worship jesus instead of GOD. the call jesus by more than million names.ask christian who is jesus.they will give u handread ans.ask jesus what does christianity means.they dont know.if this word is latin or english or ahmaric.hebrew. infact they go to the extent of saying is the name of jesus(christ).the bible is a very danderous book.i repeat. its the only book with a verse insulting GOD THE ALMIGHTY.(THIS IS WHAT THE VERSE SAY)WITH THE FOOLISHNESS OF GOD----------

Answer 11

Yes I read the whole thing in a quest for the Truth. I though that I would strengthen my faith. However, it opened my eyes and made me see that it is all fake. Worse book I have ever read. Misogynistic, brutal, sickly twisted, etc.
