    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Angelina, Just close the thread down, I don't feel like being banned permanently off this site. I was just seeing how many people would suggest that Bible is not the Bible, because that is what it simply is... the bible. Thanks.

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Angelina, If people are so upset by this forum thread, just close it down. I didn't realize how many people would be upset over a simple concept.

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Angelina, At anytime have I ever said its not good to read the bible? The bible is vital part of the persons building up of faith. You can tell me I am wrong that is fine. Do you live by everything that is said in that book? That is my question. You do realize that good and the bad...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Ritajanice, I never said not to ever read the bible, or look into scripture. Peoples faith become built on the scriptures however, when it comes to the holy spirit, and it given to people who are faith. What does it produce? You know the bible well enough to remember what has been read...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @marks, Everyone make choices marks. You know that. Whether people agree or disagree in the end it's the heart that matters. The heart is not a book, but it has many stories to tell concerning the experience of the soul that passes away from this life. When you say we, are you speaking in...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Rockerduck, Any Bible will do, some people are contingent on which they prefer. Romans 10:17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. - Reading the bible is helpful in building up the faith of a persons faithful standing...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @MA2444, Can you point out in a single quote at any time where I suggest that no one should ever read the bible? You wont find one. Are you confused by the original post? Because I would like to try to make clear direct posts, if it is possible and not confusing ones.

    Why did Jesus say that "He (Holy Spirit) won't come unless I leave"?

    Hello to the original poster, Because sin needed to be taken care of first. That is what I believe about the topic.

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    Hello @One 2 question, There is only evidences that suggest that God exist, you cannot prove it. With what you suggest, my heart believes in the Lord Yeshua, who died, was buried, and raised again on the third day by the holy spirit, faithfully. There has been no one on earth to help me as the...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @LatterRain, Jesus doesn't make sense to people either. It's all good. I'm just talking about a subject which I find to be way out there in the world today, which doesn't seem to fit together, ... With God being Spirit, and the Bible just being a material reference guide to where people...

    Can you make sense of this seemingly insane verse from Deuteronomy 22:20-22?

    Hello to the original poster, It’s just laws that concerned the nation of Israel. As many people stated it concerned the pureness that God desired within the hearts of the people, some stated it concerned the bride and I can see that because of when Jesus stated how far those who lived in...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Verily, Great chain connection and I agree. This thread is basically saying that just because someone has an differing interpretation of how to understand that bible it's all called upon us to love one another... that is the maturity in Christ Jesus. Not this whole bargin banter show...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @Wrangler, Why not just make it simple and just say "The Bible." I'm okay with whatever version a person wants to use just as well as you. You are right though people do take it way to seriously, and literally. It's a wonder if it's so literal, why don't they follow every bit of it.

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello LatterRain, Doesn't make sense... It's a gift if anything. Just quoting this passages doesn't make the bible "infallible." Does it? If it's Gods infallible word, to you - do you also follow everything that it says inside of it? If no, wouldn't the question be "Why don't you follow God's...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @marks, It’s suspected, that Moses wrote the first four or five books of the Bible. Everyone suggest that God is the author? It’s weird how people worship the Bible more than they listen to Jesus words of worshiping the Father in the spirit and in truth.

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    I had admiration for the Bible. I believe it’s a gift that Yahavah has let us have. However it is not a spirit book, it’s not Gods Word, or the “Word of God.” It’s a material book give to us with evidences that suggest Gods existence and also gives spiritually taught lessons. You can’t...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    All the Bible is simply the Bible. While historical places existed within it; no one can even prove the existence of God other than the evidences which suggest the existence of God. The Bible is the Bible. It’s that simple. People can debate the subject all day. It still comes down to the Bible...

    The Bible is not “Gods Word.” It's simply "The Bible."

    Hello @JohnDB, Jesus is the Word of God, made flesh. Not the Bible. The spirit overrides the Bible though the Bible is helpful in us knowing information.
