I've been chatting to a guy at school recently who over the summer became a Christian (or so he says at any rate) but he has some really weird ideas about stuff - like that the Bible isn't 100% infaillible, that hell (fire and brimstone hell) isn't a real place and that we just keep getting reincarnated til we become in a relationship with God becuase hell is the physical pain etc that we experience on Earth therefore accoring to him Earth is Hell (as you can see he also believes in reincarnation)And so I want to try and explain to him in the nicest way possible that these things aren't biblically correct but he doesn't seem to accept any veiws other than his own, especially reading the true nature of the Bible - I mean I believe that the Bible is the word of God and that everything put into the Bible is God-inspired and God-breathed, whereas he believes that the apocrypha and such things are true and so feels that some parts of the Bible shouldn't be in the Bible and that some parts (or rather all parts) of the apocrypha should be in the BibleSo I guess I'm just asking for how to go about explaining that the Bible is the true word of God in a way that he might be able to accept and then from that to be able to show him that some of his ideas ad "theologies" as he calls them aren't biblically correct etcAlso, I want to ask prayer for my Christian Union at school becuase we're slightly divided on some issues (eg predestination and no I don't want this to turn into a discussion on predestination becuase I KNOW its a contraversial subject) but thats meaning that I'm listening to them and going 'well I agree with some of what you're saying' and so this is making me have to go away and think realyl hard about what I actually think on some stuff (not useful when you have loads of work to do for upper sixth anyway so your mind is rather taken up already) so I'd also kinda like to ask prayer that I'd sort out my beliefs and that they'd be biblical true beliefs as wellThis is probably a waffly complicated post but any replies will be GREATLY appreciated!!GBNaomix
