in fact the bible was not written by any human, it was indeed written by God. God works through people, he doesn't appear here like people would like to think. That feeling inside of you when you do something you know is absolutely wrong is God. It's your consince.

to try and answere the orginal post. The only way i know how to tell you to understand it is pray. Ask God to give you the answeres you need. And actually full heartedly believe he'll give you the answeres you need.

lean not unto your own understanding, trust in the Lord in all thy ways and He shall direct your paths.


Stop trying to figure everything out on your own.

If, I say again with emphasis "IF" *all caps* , you know in your heart that you really believe and trust in the Almighty then trust Him. thats all.

Blessings!

Cowboy...are you serious? written by God? Please sir..there was no such thing as a Holy bible until a bunch of rapists and pedophiles put one together well after the "death" of Jesus.
This bible we have today, are full of errors, contradictions, and hear say based on what so and so's great great great grandparents passed down. Since God is incapable of contradictiing himself, thus makes the "Holy Bible" NOT the word of God.
As far as this thread, God and his Prophets including Prophet Jesus made the word so that even a small child could understand it. If you can't understand something that's written....it didn't come from God.
peace

God if he exists does not need words only humans do and I will never trust what humans write in the name of God, so there is nothing to understand.

Bravo !.
.

The bible we have today was put together from scriptures that were wrote when Jesus was here. Not just stories passed down by word of mouth.

No thats exactly what they were, oral traditions/stories until years after Jesus's death, then they were written down. And frequently not by the 'accepted authors.'
The Old Testament is a different story....

some people need to realize God reveals what you need to know in exact timing... you don't just poof, get it all at once...its a process. he will reveal as you need it.

Really ?.
There is no proof at all that there is a God let alone God speaking to a man .
People talk about God as if he is their twin.....

Which version.

The KJ... Roman Catholic... Modern english... Bible for children...

Which translation?

Not a single scripture, gospel or whatever that is currently in the bible was written until at LEAST 70 years after Jesus was DEAD. (and most of the accepted scripture was written 300 years or more after his death).

How then can it actually be his words?

More likely to call that book the 'Approved Collection of Constantine'...

as for the old testement... Scholars can't even agree on the meaning of four simple symbols... How then can we trust the translation of the entir work.

Yah.

I don't understand why most people that are not currectly christains always try to find someway to disprove the bible. Of course there's no real physical way to prove or disprove anything. But i tell you it's the greatest feeling once you truely accept the lord and your life will change for the better from that day forward.

Holy crap!!!!

You people are whack.


I suggest reading Dan Brown's newest book, The Lost Symbol.

And if you write these redonkulous 800 word posts, I hope you know no one reads them.

It would best serve all you religious people to realize that Jesus was JUST A MAN, as human as you and I.

Yes indeed Jesus was human/a man. That was done so that he could teach us "humans" better. He was in a sence a role model showing us how we should act and live our lives. To prove it's not impossible for a human to do these things. Yes if we had the faith that jesus had all of us could heal the blind. Christain in lamen terms meen christ like.

Thank you for your pedantic post. But I don't agree it was faith.

To each his own.

And to clearify some things alot of people don't know or seem to think of. The main reason Jesus came to earth in the first place was to change how the world worshipped God. Before jesus came we all followed what is now known as the old testiment. Jesus came to change some of as in for example sacrifice of animal or objects for forgiveness of sins. He came to be the ultimate sacrifice. There was a few other changes but i can't think of them right off the top of my head. That's why in these days our attention is to be spent on the new testiment, those are the rules and regulations for us. Not saying don't read the old testiment, just forcus your main attention to the new NT. And again if there's anything you don't understand, pray about it, ask God for his guidance. Just bow your head and ask for the answeres you seek.

Ohhh I apoogize. I didn't know your role was to lecture.


Nevermind then.

not lecturing sorry if it came across like that. I was just telling you some of the facts hoping to open your eyes. I'm sorry if i offended you in anyway.

"He came to be the ultimate sacrifice."

sorry but that's the most ridiculous thing i've ever read. In fact Christianity is just as absurd...let me clarify...before it was corrupted and hijacked by the Romans.
So let me get this straight...and this is the average logic of christians...that Jesus...who was really God in the flesh.., had to come in human form to sacrifice himself so that they would be allowed in heaven (in other words, for God so loved the world, he killed himself). Let's look past the fact that God made the universe and all of its laws, just so happened to forget to put that clause in.
Jesus ate and prayed regularly. Who'd he pray to..himself? When asked when the day of judgement would be, he replied "i do not know, for only the father knows"
If he was indeed God, why lie?
Even if he was God, christians are sinning by having graven images of him (refer to the 10 commandments). I also love how christians will say, that Jesus presence cancelled out all of the OT...so God contradicted himself? By saying jesus was God, gives God limitations which is impossible. Jesus couldn't perform simple miracles without praying and asking. I know it may seem that i'm christian bashing because i'm muslim, but american christianity gives me giggles...because Christianity in the Middle East where the relgion originated, is totally different.
and btw..cowboy..to be taken seriously, i'd put on a shirt. just a suggestion.
