What Do You Think The Bible Is?

HAHAHAHAHAHA i laugh at all the hardcore people.....the "holy" bible is a book written just like every other book book....the only reason it is special is because the people who wrote it needed something to fall on.....all religion is what makes you comfortable with your life...i am a satanist which is in fact an official religion and we condemo the judeo christian society for being decietful and holding lucifer as responsidble for all problems....now i personally dont care abotu your religion or what makes you happy but being continously bashed in the face with the "perfect" chiristian ideals from the book is absurd...the book is filled with laws that itself breaks...and tells you to refuse your inner beast and hold back the things that makes us man...so i say it deserves a place right next to the book of mormon in my burn barrel outside providing burn material for my fire....

If you don't care about my religion and what makes me happy, then I suggest you don't post at all.

I am really sorry that you feel the way you do. Followers of Christ share the Gospel our of love and concern for our fellow man. Our responsibility to the Lord is to share the Gospel with unbelievers. They are free to do with it what they choose. The Words of Scripture we share are not ours, they are the inerrant, inspired, preserved Words of the Lord. We mean you no harm, we are just sharing the good news of the Gospel of salvation in Christ. While you may "laugh" at and mock followers of Christ, we will pray for you. Here are some words from the Bible...

We expect to be persecuted for our beliefs. You may think it funny but we consider it a blessing, as the Bible tells us.

Pe 3:14But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy areye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;

1Pe 3:15But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

1Pe 3:16Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

The Bible teaches that in astate of rebellion and unbelief you will not be able to understand the Bible. Only in faith and with the guidance of the Holy Spirit will one be able to understand God's truth.

Joh 8:47He that isofGodhearethGod'swords:yethereforehearthemnot,becauseyearenotofGod.

Co 4:3But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

2Co 4:4In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

2Co 4:5For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

2Co 4:6For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Isa 44:18They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.

Rom 1:18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

Rom 1:19Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them.

Rom 1:20For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Rom 1:21Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Rom 1:22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

Rom 1:23And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Rom 1:24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:

Rom 1:25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

God loves you even if you choose to rebel against Him. He does not want to be separated from you.

2Pe 3:9The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

1Ti 2:3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;

1Ti 2:4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

1Ti 2:5For thereis one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

1Ti 2:6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

Eze 33:11Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

Eze 33:12Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sinneth.

Eze 33:13When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.

Eze 33:14Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;

Eze 33:15If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.

Eze 33:16None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

Rom 10:8But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

Rom 10:9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Rom 10:10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

I pray that the Holy Spirit will work in your heart to lead you to Christ.

[QUOTE="ElectronicMagic"][QUOTE="blackregiment"]As I stated, my opinon on the age of the earth is irrelevant to this discussion which is on the truth of the Bible.

If I made a thread asking this exact question will you post your opinion in it? Is that all that is bothering you? The fact that it's not on topic? It's just a simple question.

Rather than worrying yourself about my opinion on the age of the earth, jump in the discussion of the Bible. You hve basically said that is good for nothing other than tinder in a fireplace.

Why don't you give us your evidence and proof that it is not the Word of God.

You have to proove god exists first, you prove something is before you argue that it isn't

I must say your post was a bit rambling. You are trying to blame God for what sinful man does? God created man with a free will. When one chooses disobedience to God and sins as in you drunk driver example, that is not God's fault. that is the guy you worship, Satan's fault. In the garden of Eden Satan deceived Adam and and Eve into sin and a fall.

God is our Creator. He did not create robots. He gave man a free will to choose righteousness or sin. He is not going to force Himself on you. As our Creator, God owes us nothing. He is holy and just and cannot allow sin into His presence. He would be perfectly justified to destroy His entire creation at any time. It is out of love that He provided a path to eternal life in Jesus Christ. I am sorry to inform you that you do not make the rules. God does. The creation is not greater than the Creator.

You are free to reject His plan of salvation if you choose and God will reluctantly give you the consequences of your choice.

Why do you think that a God you mock and reject owes you anything more than the life he gave you? Using your logic, a girl should love you and care for you even if you reject her, mistreat her, and mock her.

Your logic is contradictory.

You better think about this, eternity is a long time.

He can state his opinion. It is wrong, however, to mock the believers of the Christian faith.

You want proof that it is inspired by God? Try reading one chapter of the Bible. Do you really think that man could have made it all up, without any counseling or inspiration from someone else?

Allow me to recount the tale of the Bible:

First there was a god, and another god, and they were like "hey wanna hook up?" at the same time and they both said "whoa! thats what I was thinking!" and they were both very impressed. 9 months later they had 6 billion babies, but at some point they lost count so they just split them into two groups and called one adam and one eve. Then they realized that they weren't even married yet :o Their parents were very upset.

No offense but at least your opinion is consistent with the word in your sig picture.

2Co 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

Luk 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

I doesn't have to be that way.

You want proof that it is inspired by God? Try reading one chapter of the Bible. Do you really think that man could have made it all up, without any counseling or inspiration from someone else?

You are correct. The Bible is composed of 66 separate books, written over approximately 1,600 years, by at least 40 distinct authors, from all walks of life, written in three different languages, on three different continents, all in perfect agreement and consistent. The Old Testament contains 39 books written from approximately 1500 to 400 BC, and the New Testament contains 27 books written from approximately 40 to 65 AD.

There is no other book that has ever come close to this remarkable achievement and wisdom. Anyone that reads and studies it and cannot see the inspiration and work of God in the Bible just doesn't want to. Try getting 40 people on a thread to agree on something and it will be clear that the Biuble is God's inspired, inerrant, and preserved Word.

First there was a god, and another god, and they were like "hey wanna hook up?" at the same time and they both said "whoa! thats what I was thinking!" and they were both very impressed. 9 months later they had 6 billion babies, but at some point they lost count so they just split them into two groups and called one adam and one eve. Then they realized that they weren't even married yet :o Their parents were very upset.

So. What is the point you are trying to make?

Don't make babies until your married? Procreationism is better than creationism? I dont care...

If you post in this topic it's a good idea to have a point.

btw, your "story" is completely false.

huh??? The story is false. It is not present in the Bible, as you have claimed.

I already cry when I see people turned away from God.

I'm fine thank you.

look at what happens when i try to bring levity to a conversation...lobodob

Now you are playing the victim. Mocking God and His Word is not "levity", it is blaspheme and sin. I will not stand silently by and watch you do this.

If you're not being serious then feel free to find something better to do with your time.

It does not matter what you claim your intentions were. Mocking is mocking and that is what you did. You need to ask the Lord for forgiveness.

Pro 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Jam 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Jam 1:6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Jam 1:7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
Jam 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

[QUOTE="J-man45"]He can state his opinion. It is wrong, however, to mock the believers of the Christian faith.

You want proof that it is inspired by God? Try reading one chapter of the Bible. Do you really think that man could have made it all up, without any counseling or inspiration from someone else?

You are correct. The Bible is composed of 66 separate books, written over approximately 1,600 years, by at least 40 distinct authors, from all walks of life, written in three different languages, on three different continents, all in perfect agreement and consistent. The Old Testament contains 39 books written from approximately 1500 to 400 BC, and the New Testament contains 27 books written from approximately 40 to 65 AD.

There is no other book that has ever come close to this remarkable achievement and wisdom. Anyone that reads and studies it and cannot see the inspiration and work of God in the Bible just doesn't want to. Try getting 40 people on a thread to agree on something and it will be clear that the Biuble is God's inspired, inerrant, and preserved Word

I read the entire Bible to become a better Christian. I did not expect to become an atheist within a week after completing it. I didn't become one because I didn't want to see the inspiration and work of God in the Bible. To this day, I still want to seek the inspiration and work of any higher force, whether it be the Judeo-Christian God or a Flying Spaghetti Monster if either one exists. I approached the Bible with a pro-Christian bias to the point where I connected dots just to "prove" to myself there was a God, but then I realized that I was trying to blend too much with what I know and what I want to know. But I still don't have proof that either one exist, outside the text within the Bible, which to me is just text that mix fact with exaggerations. If we had the media we do today, we wouldn't believe in Jesus's miracles, in my opinion.

That said I have nothing wrong with believing in Christianity, although I do not like it when people try to argue against non-Christians by using the Bible as a reference. It's a very ineffective way to convert people, in my opinion.

There are over 3200 fulfilled prophecies in the Bible. Name even one other book that comes close with even a fraction of that.

You can't.

No disrespect meant but if you are an atheist as your post suggests, then you opinion on how a Christian uses the Bible is of no value.

Gal 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Reading the Bible without true faith and the guidance of the Holy Spirit to reveal God's truth is not the answer. if you, in sincerity and faith, ask God to reveal Himself to you in His Word and guide you to the truth, He will be faithful in doing that.

You can't.

Name them.

Well, I must go fo now. See you later and God bless everyone.

Mat 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
Mat 7:8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Rom 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Rom 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

God bless everyone.blackregiment

That can't happen since you believe some of us here are going to hell.
