Bible Question:
You're welcome, Jim D, ................ But I'm still looking for an answer to my question in "Don't sweat the small stuff?" Now I have expanded on that question: ........... First, is my restating of your position ok? Second, if the restatement is satisfactory, how do you determine what historical details are important, and how do you know the important historical events are true? |
Bible Answer: Hi Lionstrong! I'm getting a little cross-eyed trying to read the replies to replies to replies (g), but I think you're referring to a message you posted before where you said "Some unimportant historical details in the Bible are false, but the important stuff is true. The false stuff is unimportant, so don't sweat it." That's not really what I was trying to say, although I can see now why you might have inadvertently drawn that conclusion. Rather than restate what I've posted before, can I suggest that you read the responses I posed to Morant61's questions? I think you'll find my answer in there. If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know. Yours in Christ, Jim D. |
