I have been reading post for sometime now. I have read many of the communities’ viewpoints and discussions, and believe that a healthy discussion encourages and stimulates the mind.
The Bible
I believe in the bible, I take it as the Word of God. End of discussion (for me), do I personally and emotional agree with everything no, but it is the in the bible. I do strive for obedience to Gods Word. ( Because I am limited by my understanding, I accept that God knows better than I do)
I once had a revelation when talking with my wife (I am witnessing here) we were talking about when The king of England that changed something in the bible (I can not remember the details, and they really do not mater)
I was explaining this to a young girl when my demure wife looked at me and said “it doesn’t matter, God would not allow his word to be changed! I stopped.
If I believe God is infallible, then King, pauper nor poet, could change what he wants us to know and seek in his book. some things could be removed, or changed, but the core message of what God wants you(us) to know, could not be changed by man)
So yes you could argue that man wrote it and man is fallible, there fore the bible could be. But no! That is insinuating that man’s will is greater than Gods and that is impossible. Man could not change Gods word, any more than He would allow it.
Our God gave us a tool in the bible to have a personal and fulfilling relationship with Him. The bible can do more good that ten thousand science books. Now some of you will get hot about that but the Fact is, the bible can save your soul, bring you right to the throne of Daddy God and make you whole, make you as He original designed.
A science book will never get me closer to God, it does not show me how to forgive, or even love someone, I would normal dislike. It can not show me how to apologize when I offend my brother. It will not bring me to the only truth that matters. Jesus Christ took a beating for each and every one of us. For every sin we have committed and are going to commit (and we will) there is a scar on our Saviors body, “”for by His stripes we are forgiven.
There is nothing wrong with science, with it I am able to write to you. My brothers, and share and encourage your walks in Christ. I do not shy from science; I am an IT profession with dual degrees in Networking and programming. I am also working on my masters in Biblical studies/Theology.
Science can be used by God,
It does not matter who discover what
It does not matter What other religions say
Read the bible
Know the Gospels
Know Christ
Befriend Him
Fulfill the great commission
Walk in Christ
My point is you can be misguided enough to take part of the bible and not all of it. But it will not bring benefit you. You can have diehard Ideas about the meaning of life and what your human limited wisdom will get you. But it is through Christ we know Father God.
I guess that’s it
Its my opinion I felt moved to share
