    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    That god is a myth. My God is none of the above, and in the Bible He is a Righteous Judge and Merciful Saviour.

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    To me that's Strawman Fallacy stuff, since God doesn't botch anything, doesn't reside in mythology, and is not answerable to mankind for His actions.

    Accusing God of anything doesn't bode well. It's not something I need or desire to do.

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    Sigh, yes, all part of the plan. It was inevitable, foreknown, predestined, just like this conversation.

    Human error doesn't equal Divine error, which is an oxymoron.

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    Textual variations like this exist for various reasons, most commonly due to scribal elements. Quote: This is an interesting textual issue that has been discussed by scholars and theologians. In Mark 2:26, Jesus refers to David eating the...

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    Given the context, Deuteronomy literally being a second account of the Law, there is no conflict but rather a more informed rendering. Quote: Explore The Ten Commandments are presented in both Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5, with some...

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    In my worldview nothing in the Bible is a myth, so specific examples all present as per 2 Timothy 3:16-17 2Ti 3:16-17 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for instruction, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness, (17) so that the man of God may be complete...

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    The Bible warns me against myths, so I exclude them in my worldview. "The Bible contains several exhortations against myths and fables, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the truth of God’s word. Here are a few key passages: 2 Peter...

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    You seem skeptical. For me, having immersed myself in the study of worldviews, it comes down to what I want to believe, and that would be taking the Bible as true. Here's the promise that persuades me to follow Christ, and be yoked to Him Mat 11:28-30 Come to Me all you who labor and are...

    A Word for the church (four actually) concerning worship.

    This dissertation seems to jump from a discussion about worship to one about rules for gathering. I must be a bit slow this morning as I don't get the point.

    Were the Gospel accounts a mythology of Jesus?

    Religious academics love this stuff. Some by their own confession never read the Bible for personal guidance and edification, and reject its claim to be the inspired Word of God. Their religion is the worship of the human intellect, especially their own. My unbelieving younger sister was a...

    A Word for the church (four actually) concerning worship.

    Number 7 is often neglected, but what a blessing it brings. I'd rather rest in God's Provision than strive for what the World provides.
