You ask Ringman. whistle
Is he actually that delusional to think that was a compliment?
Yes. I take people at their word. Jesus says, "From the abundance of the heart we speak." Or in this case post.

krp, Not that he thought 300 years later his letters would be canonized as God's word. This is the kind of statement you make and believe when you don't spend time in God's Word. Apostle Paul realized he was writing God's Word. If you want me to add to this One Scripture for your edification, I will. This is why he wrote different things to different churches. He was writing to encourage each one with God's Word. 1 Thessalonians 2:13"For this reason we also constantly thank God that when you received the Word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but for what it really is, the Word of God, which also performs its work in you who believe."

Personally, I believe all scripture is given by God and is profitable to the hearer, which also means I like to read my Bible aloud, unless I'm stand hunting.
I've noticed, for a long time, that if I have encountered an issue in working through a problem at work or home, if I start describing the problem to another, those audible words sort the thing out for me and provide the solution. I can't say how often that has been true, because it's been a lot of times.
Similarly, I believe reading the Bible out loud does the same thing for understanding.
I can't ever recall reading a passage and thinking, it didn't belong in the Bible. I appreciate Thomas Jefferson for the smart man he was, but believe the Jefferson Bible shows all men have fallacies.
I also believe everything the Holy Spirit will lead us in, can be backed up in the Bible. If it's extra-Biblical, it may be from a spirit, but not a Holy one.
I can agree with this 100% yep.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of patriots and tyrants.
If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

Is God's word limited to writings? John 1:1-4, 14 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth."

Kent Of course not. Then why did you make THIS comment to me? "You're giving me the impression you don't read your Bible much or at all. No way for me to know other than your outward appearance. Fruit."

Kind of like a dad telling his son to love and honor him or dont show up for the reading of the will, huh? Weird.

But I will tell you this, I won't argue with you over nothing. This whole thread is foolishness.

"Christians are not well positioned to defend Christianity if they can't first defend the existence of a Supreme Being who remains interested in His Creation. Citing Bible verses does NOTHING toward that end." I offered up a philosophical thread for discussion. You and Ringman inundated it with bible verses, often out of context, and seldom with any commentary. And NOW, you decide it is foolish?

Yep, the Bible does a good job of disproving itself, but does nothing to prove itself.

What was God's word to those who had no writings? You try to put God in a man made box. You forget you are finite and God is Infinite. Romans 1:19-23"that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures."
