    Is the Bible the word of God?

    Thanks for your reply. You do make some good points. A reduced or lack of emphasis on what is written in order to increase and emphasize what is not. I guess I was observing the over emphasis of what was written (the scriptures) at the expense of the under emphasising the Spirit. Maybe a...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    That's fine if you don't want to share your findings. Personally what bibles people decide to use makes no difference to me. As I don't use any of them these days. The only source I intentionally access is Christ the Truth. Who at this moment has access to ALL TRUTH which is in His Father. I...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    I could refer to an earlier closed biblical canon which only had 11 scrolls/books. Or the many many others that had various numbers of books. The bible or scriptures never provide any numbers that could confirm how many books it is made up of. Who made this determination? Many are confident...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Yes, as Jesus was recorded as saying.... Mat 7:15-20 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Them only? Or every person who confesses that Jesus is the Christ? So when the Spirit Jesus's Father sent, the One and True Holy Spirit, reveals truth beyond what's recorded in the bible and does not contradict it, what would you do with that? Why? Jesus said the Spirit would bring the things...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    Who told you this? Within the bible you won't find this statement. Have you seen the actual amount of information God has available to us by which we know EXACTLY how to not be in opposition and to be pleasing to God? If you were to comprehend this volume your estimation of huge would probably...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    Again, who told them to only select those 73, 81, 66 or 88 particular scrolls and refer to them as the scriptures? Did anyone, of those who's writings were selected, state what your claiming? Who said 88 books contain all that the church, the body of Christ requires and that we should only...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    This highlights why I moved beyond the bible. I found myself being convinced as you are JohnDB, that all truth was in the pages of the bible. It's now so clear how short-sighted and deceived I was and that it was essential for me to repent of this deception of Satan. It was believed that...

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    Good advice, we're better off taking God's words for it hey. That is why a personal relationship with the One Jesus said His Father would send to us is crucial. Because without Him how could anyone know what Jesus is getting from His Father at any given time and giving to us. We need Holy...

    Will you go to heaven when you die? - (or the other place)

    Some might say, that's only when you enter the building and the leader is speaking. Switch off everything except your intellect. We'll if you disagree with them, then you better turn that off too.

    Will you go to heaven when you die? - (or the other place)

    W What a fantastic hope hey! Our new home, our new city, on this renewed completed earth. Yay! Then what about the heavens, the greatest part of the 'whole creation' that's groaning under decay currently like this planet? I can't wait to get out there and explore the whole creation, if...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Jhn 16:12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Were they ever able to bear it? Did Jesus decide to tell them the many things He wanted to tell them? If so, how did He manage to do this as He was departing from them and going to heaven where they couldn't see or...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    And if the 84 scrolls/books were WRITTEN to God's people, it is a mere fraction of what He had already communicated to them at the time the bibles were compiled. What about the majority of what He said that was never written down? Are these not important or necessary? Do we treat them as...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    Have you never read, LatterRain, Man will not live by bread alone but every word that comes from the mouth of God. So 81, 73, 66, 84 books can contain every word that comes from the mouth of God? That is impossible my friend! For sure, read any of these bibles. But I certainly won't be...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    What!!! Written in what scroll? Why did you ADD to what John said after quoting him and presenting the severe consequences of such an act. 18) For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book (BIBLE) If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    No disrespect but I'm looking for specifics relating to the compilation of individual scrolls that were first refered to as scriptures. Then continued till the bag that contained them got too full or heavy or for some other reason. Does anyone know that reason? Why did they stop at 88...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    I keep it simple my friend. The Spirit of Christ in heaven and my spirit on earth communicate together just as we are on this forum. Even though we have not seen eachother in person. Same with Christ and I. The connection is by our spirit. This is awesome. Through this means I have been able to...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    Is anyone able to answer these questions specifically? A reason being is that people hope to find Christ in the scripture as He said, they speak of Him. Actually, were the scriptures Jesus was refering to completed? Or was Jesus refering to a complete, closed, finished scriptures here? Did He...

    Is the Bible the word of God?

    It has been an interesting journey with the Spirit Father sent to be with us and in us, being led and guided into truth. Yes He has led me to experience a lot of things through which truth has emerged. Yet another way He reveals truth to me us through pictures or parables which I pass on to...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Agreed. I'm also looking forward to restoring and developing the rest of creation once this planet is complete. There will be lots of fun, enjoyment and pleasure in carrying out this never ending playtime. Can't wait! I believe it will make the likes of Disneyland appear disinteresting in...
