Recently I discovered through some dialogue with a few un-churched and churched, that there is a theory buzzing around that uses the bible as a tool... The idea that the scripture was written many years ago by many different authors. The common trait surrounding this mind-set was implied that to take the text literally, word for word was somewhat excessive.
Look, from my stand-point and hopefully the opinion of most, the bible is "the Word of God," if He wanted it written any other way He would have had the men writing do so. He does not make mistakes. Buying in to the above mentioned is a prime example of being deceived. It reads just the way He wants. Is there things in there that raise a brow sure but, I'm a man I don't always see things the way God does.
My question to some was, "where does truth come from?" It is always better to leave the answers to God and what He says however, if the Gospel is going to be questioned, where does that leave you? Lost...
The bible is from Him and that's "the God's honest truth!" Just don't take my "word" for it...
Psalm 12:6,Psalm 19:7, Proverbs 30:5, 2nd Timothy 2:15 & 3:16, 2nd Peter 1:21, Jeremiah 1:2, Romans 9:20, Hebrews 4:12, Psalm 119:89, John 6:68-69, Acts 17:11, Revelations 22:18-19
There will be disagreements concerning interpretation and regarding those I say take it into prayer. Always remember at the point of not understanding we need to trust and have faith....
Thirsty? Drink from His well! Michael...
