The bible contains what percentage of 'ALL SCRIPTURE'? 2 Timothy 3:16

[Jack]

So you don't know?

Don't you want me to believe you? You said you're going to Hell FOREVER.

Surely you must've investigated this you place so much emphasis on this book you hardly ever quote.

You mean the Book that you forsook, the Bible?

Something seems very off.

Yes indeed, look in your mirror. VERY off!

Why are you ashamed of the bible Jack?

Why are you implying a LIE? Oh that's right, you said you're going to Hell.

Why do you deny Jesus and His words?

Why are you still following demon voices leading you to Hell?

 

[One 2 question]

God has not contradicted himself. If you or anyone thinks so, you only show that you do not understand. Would-be contradictions come from misinterpretation.

Jos 6 And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.....all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.

Joshua recorded, (bible) 'the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword'.

Josh 8 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Take the whole army with you, and go up and attack Ai. For I have delivered into your hands the king of Ai, his people, his city and his land. You shall do to Ai and its king as you did to Jericho and its king.

THEN from the same Source, the Lord, written with His finger, said, 'Do not kill'
kill - râtsach
A primitive root; properly to dash in pieces, that is, kill (a human being), especially to murder: - put to death, kill, (man-) slay (-er), murder (-er).

And 40 years later that's what God told Joshua to do. Dash in pieces with the sword, men, women and children.

No interpretation here just scripture. God's word (command) written down (given to Moses) and God's word (command spoken to Joshua).

What God spoke contradicted what He wrote.

Personally I'm fine with this.

Quoting YOU: "ALL humans have sinned against God and all are going to hell forever and ever."

You included yourself!

 

[One 2 question]

Of course it is--and as I said, don't get me wrong--God has not changed nor stopped speaking. Even so, there are many who make false claims, and few that are true.

I couldn't tell you what percentage of what is being taught in the church is true or false. The truth is is that Jesus is still speaking new truths to His body, His sheep, God's children.

 

[One 2 question]

What book are you referring to, the Bible? If so, you are under the wrong impression-- Men are not in control of God's word--they do not decide what is and is not included--God does.

Most of God's word is not contained in the books of the bible, obviously. We know that every word that proceeds from the mouth of God is inexhaustible as He will never stop speaking to angels, His Son Jesus, glorified humans.

So you are right....Men are not in control of God's word....most of which we have never heard.

 

[One 2 question]

In any case, the Bible is true, and what men do with it is in God's hands. Even the evils of false teachers and their lies, having no understanding--God has intended for good.

Absolutely. Very comforting hey. We wouldn't want Satan getting access to it. Because the next thing is he could start using it too.

If God has not changed nor stopped speaking, can you post the examples God did ?

James 1:17​

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning."​

I am sure there are many, but I would not presume to say who has heard from God--because they say so. But if good and perfect things occur--if we believe--we should know better than to say He has not spoken in His way.

I can only give my own testimony of me calling out to Him and Him answering, of being caught up in the spirit and hearing words unlawful to utter. Then releasing those words when the world needed to hear them--words that were not first in my own mind, but came forth from a well I cannot and do not claim--often rereading them that I too might believe. Unfortunately, the world would rather not hear from God, and when He speaks as He always has, the words are rejected. But I for one know He speaks and give my witness.

What you have quoted goes deeper than the words alone reveal. I'm just going to spit it out--you can believe as a man, believe that God contradicts Himself, or believe there is more to it:

"Ai" means "heap of ruin." God told Joshua to go kill the dead. What does that mean? It means that God alone defines what "murder" is.

Can a man kill a dead man? But here is the difference--God decides, for He alone holds life and death in His hands. And when God speaks through a man--is the man guilty of speaking? That element of the presence of God is in everything, and in this world--likewise the devil.

No contradiction--except in the minds of men.

 

[Jack]

Does anyone know what percentage of 'All Scripture' is contained in their bible?

2 Tim 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

And then you say, "Life with God outside the Bible is great"! You really need to stop listening to demons!

God told Joshua to kill the people of Jericho. So they did. God told Joshua to kill the people of many cities, towns and villages. In fact God rebuked Joshua and the children of Israel for not killing all the inhabitants of Canaan. We are told they were very much alive before they were murdered, slain by the sword as God commanded.

Yet wrote a command, 'Do not kill'. What's not clear about this?

And can't God do this? Who told Him He can't command 2 opposing things?

Our Creator Who spoke everything into existence then continued to speak, a small percentage were recorded and found their way into the bibles.

We have the greatest of all teachers. The Spirit of Truth. And He lives in me, revealing new revelations as He wills. I love Him and the new information He provides.
