Henry and Emmy: While I find your post disconcerting, I, like Kalos, cannot convince myself that you truly mean to say about the Bible what one easily could infer to be a slap in the face of the Holy Bible. The Holy Spirit who indwells all true believers guides and illuminates through the instrument of the written word of God, the Bible. 2 Timothy 3:16 says that all Scripture is breathed of God. We, dear friends, do not test the Bible in any manner. Quite to the contrary, it tests us. Please, again I ask you, please base your statements on Scripture if you believe Scripture is trustworthy. If you believe otherwise, I say ever so regretfully and painfully that StudyBibleForum is not the place for you. --Hank | ||||||

Hi Hank: This is a quick one. I tried to lay out a clear explanation to you. Hope they were not too long May I state that I have no intention of making the scriptures less than they are. They are a miracle and wonder to us. It is perhaps the only book that is so simple in its messages yet impossible to believe without God actually helping through the Spirit. We believe it from cover to cover. For believers to have differing opinions about a passage is not surprising. SOme know more than others. We do believe the scriptures are trustworthy of course. A non believer thinks it untrustworthy. Someone at some time must prove to the unbeliever that the scripture is truth. The Holy Spirit does this. From a believer's view point, it is not testing what the scriptures say is true or false, but how others interpret what they think it means. The scriptures are often twisted to suit the situation, and those doing it can try to convince others of the incorrect intertretation. That is what we all have to test. We have to test every interpretation of others, not the scriptures themselves once we believe that they are God's word. Sincerely Henry and Emmy. |
