I take no issue your statement of belief but RM is replying based on a "biblical" perspective. A question of "what the bible teaches" is not the same as "is the bible the word of god."
TF
my point is that everyones belief is based on what certain people wanted to be read and seen in their versions of bibles thruout mankinds history old testament wise new testament wise dead sea scroll wise ect ecte ect
how can you toss aside certain texts books and documents and say they aint no good for this branch of christain religon but yet keep certain texts books and documents for such and such other branch of christain religion
and these decisions were made by men as too what they thought or think gods word should be and put out to beleivers as a whole
kinda leaves a big what if type of scenario as to the whole entire concept of faith and belief when it has been manipulated by man since its inception
oh I believe their is a god and he is a higher power for sure im just saying that the bible has been manipulated to suit mans purposes way too much to be an authentic complete and true source document for people to say it is this way or hells highway for ya
p.s. I was baptized a roman catholic and that branch of the christain religion sure has some serious issues on its do,s and don't,s versus other branches of christain religons
Q.how did that all happen with offshoots of versions of the bible and versions of christain religons since the roman catholic church basically started the whole thing after they decided what they wanted and didn't want in their "official bible"
