The Book of Life was around from the beginning; but the Bible is not the same thing as the Book of Life. Can you find your name in the Bible?You say I got it wrong that "this book" does not refer to the whole Bible. Without referring to the Old Testament, how would you understand Revelation 13:8?
You demonstrate you don't know what you're talking about. It is "sin of the world" and not "sins." You might want it to read "sins," but it doesn't. You were hallucinating when you read that. It amazes me that people can read the Bible and claim they believe it; but then they can't quote it right. You treat the Bible lightly as if what it actually says doesn't matter . . . . I suggest you leave this forum and reread your Bible; and this time, take it more seriously.When John introduced Jesus at the River Jordan, he said: "Behold the Christ who is the savior of the world who will take away the sins of the world," no John didn't say it that way (but I would have) rather, he said: "Behold the Lamb of God , who takes away the sins of the world."
What does an animal have to do with taking away the sins of the world? We learn that the Jews of old would take a lamb to sacrifice for the atoning of their sins. Now we see, (under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit) that Jesus is the ultimate sacrifice for sins.
To God Be The Glory
I also know nothing about Jews sacrificing a lamb for "the atoning of their sins." That's not in my Bible. I wonder where you got that idea.
