Bible Answer: Are the OT Scriptures the Word of God? (You seem to accept this) Was Jesus God? (if you said no, read Isaiah) If you answered yes to both these questions, at a minimum, the recorded word of Jesus' would be Scripture. Jesus refered to the Scriptures that were known to those he was speaking to (OT). That did not mean that the New Covenant would not be recorded. God has always recorded His covenants. Since Malachi is the last book of the OT, wherein does it say that Malachi is the end of Scripture? Since you use the New Testament to argue that it is invalid (a bit circular, would you agree), I suppose its ok for me to use it to suggest that it is valid: John 1 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. 6 There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. 9 The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God-- 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. And the most important: 14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. Hmmmm Curt |
