Why do we believe the words of men only when it's what we want to hear? I see people use web links in the answers that they give like that's the real truth, somebody wrote it! People argue about what's written in the Bible because it was written by man, and for you Christians yes it was written by man even if inspired by God.
I believe everyone has a right to their own beliefs.
I am not a Christian and have no religious affilates. I do believe in God, His Holy Word and His Son Jesus Christ, because my beliefs are based upon what man has written that I choose to accept as true. Not because man wrote it and I believe what was written, but because my soul (the thing inside of me that makes me different from anybody else) tells me that the Word of God is the truth. I don't care what others believe and no amount of man written words will change what I believe. Each of us must choose what to believe for ourselves. Make your choice based on what you believe. I am a believer, are you?

I read the Bible and recognized the authors voice. I know that it holds the truth and in that truth I have established my faith and trust.

That's the whole problem with religion it was written by men, and no where has God lent his hand or voice, so to say that things are God inspired is simply nonsense, you are an intelligent spiritual and physical human being that came from the source, and no where has God or Christ ever been in the picture, you will find your true God self within not out in thin air that most believers seek, believe what you want but if it's to do with Christ or God then you are on the wrong air wave.

I think people believe because they think it will provide them security after death. I think you are right. If people accepted that the bible could have been affected by people and stopped fighting over tiny verses or use them as a right to discriminate. Maye the world would be a better place.
