So many people believe today that the Bible is considered either “Gods words or The Word of God.”

It’s not true… it’s a collective of God and his people their doings and happenings. It’s simply “The Bible.” Nothing more. If you disagree with an interpretation all of sudden you’re going against “Gods words or the word of God.” When all you are doing is disagreeing with an interpretation.

Why is that? Taught Tradition?

What you take out of it and use of it is at your discretion.

YOu will find out differently when you stand before Almighty god!

2 Peter 1:19-21

King James Version

19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

Now interpretation is used many diffrent ways. So I am not sure how you are using it. But the bible is not subject to interpretation. If people do so, it is called sin.

Great passage that is very applicable!

I don't know what you are referring to. I just simply believe the Bible is the Bible. With evidences concerning the things of God and Man.

When it comes to a subject like end times, I mean you interpret off what you are given. ( And while I haven't studied it as a case in a long time - by the Holy Spirit it helps remind me of the things which were stated.)

The Bible. It's all on the original post.
Welkl based on your OP, it seems you are more against peoples interpretations than the bible.

and though you seem to respect the bible you do not believe that teh whole bible is the inspired authoritative Word of God. that puts you in a dangerous place, being left open to all natural and supernatural interprewtations.
