Hi Prism,
I think that people become more aware of the Living God in our midst through the Scriptures. As you say, the Holy Spirit together with the Bible.
Much love!
Is Jesus the only Way?

How do you know about Jesus?
To be sure I don't question your faith. But I like to follow through this thinking.
Much love!
You appear to be exalting your word above that of Scripture. It says what it means and means what it says.
To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
(Isa 8:20)
I maintain that God is besmearched by those who denigrate His Word.
The religious people in Jesus day exalted their own traditions above God's Word...
Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
(Mar 7:13)
Your disparaging of Scripture is dangerous to anyone's faith...
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
(Rom 10:17)
The difference is as born again Christians we have the Author of the Bible living in us to lead and guide us in the Scriptures.
Your vain attempt to silence those who use the sword of the Spirit won't work!

Not at all my friend, you obviously read with a crooked eye.
It was neither poisonous or antichrist...
"Lord, open his eyes that he may see. "
Bless you.
I took back a like on the rest of the post due to that wording, but the way I see people downgrade the Bible compared their own "revelation" truly concerns me.
Without an objective standard by which to compare ourselves, we compare ourselves by ourselves, and by each other, that that does not lead to good things, when everyone does what is right in their own eyes.
Too many people are too good at fooling themselves. My thinking anyway. But I'll never never set aside the Authority of the Bible.
Much love!

I agree with you, notice there is only few who would recognize it?
Most will welcome the false teachers. Seems many wouldn't recognize an attack on the word of God if someone shredded up the bible in front of them.
Yes, I was quite shocked to be reading some of this stuff. It seems to be not just prevalent here but in many forums. Postmodernism mixed with 'Christian' Mysticism on steroids.
Wow! what I see that should be alerting to false teaching is someone calling the bible scripture dogma or sticking to it as dogmatic and referring to the standing on the authority of the word of God as--idolatrous??? This is a dangerous twisting of the truth.
That is an attempt to state that UP is DOWN and Down is UP!

Yes bro and the few who tolerate sound doctrine and the falling away is happening.
Matt 7:15 "15 BEWARE of False prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. " The ones that will distort the message in the Word of God.
What disturbs me is the ones that applaud it and will try to muzzle the sheepdogs.
Such a fitting comment. You can go back to your kennel. This thread is sound. You are simply overreacting from the flesh...which began when one dog started barking...which sets off the other dogs.
You are free to bark of course.
Show from the bible you think you know...how it doesn't point to God...but rather to itself. And when does Jesus testify of the bible as the way, the truth and the life?
You are stuck with a book...that's all you have. No life.
But that book points to a living God. Seek while there is yet time.
You are so confused that you criticize pointing to God as disrespecting the bible...which is an idol to you.
The bible points to God.

You treat those who disagree with you as dogs.
Man does not live by bread alone . . . but by every word of God.
This was spoken by the Some One Who said, I am the bread of life.
The Bible points to God, but you push away the Bible.
Great verses there; and in Psalm 119 there are also other verses about the power of God's Word.
Faith in the Lord Jesus implies faith in the Word of God ... and vice versa.
I don't see how you can separate one from the other. Now, If I become physically separated from my Bible, well, I still have managed to learn a good bit of it. But even so, God is always with me, fully. But even so still, He is the One Who wrote me that Book so I could know Him.Faith in the Lord Jesus implies faith in the Word of God ... and vice versa.
Much love!
