that's a fair interpretation, i think. i'll reread the bible to see it under this lens

God is seeking a relationship with mankind. God is sinless and therefore he communion with sinless. Humans are sinful therefore God can't communion with us. But God had a solution which is Jesus. His death allowed us to have a communion with God. Some people just don't want to have a relationship with Him. The best gift you can give God is a relationship with Him.

If you want someone to re read the Bible with I’ll try to make time. I’d hop in a vc depending on what time lol

i'm listening to the bible audio book someone sent me (i think it's the king james' version? can't remember) but thank you! i'll probably hop back in here when i have some questions again

Explain elijah and more people in the old testament

Hey I been reading the Bible all year so maybe i can join too

Bro please switch to ESV. I’ve been a Christian for a couple years and read the Bible a couple times by now... the KJV is not where it’s at

sure. but what if some people thinks they are not worthy of a relationship with him? like, they want it, but they don't think they are capable of his attention

Honestly if we find a suitable schedule I don’t see why not

No I was just comparing God's vs angel s glory. People tremble when they see an Angel. Now imagine what would happen if they see God. Bible tells us humans will die if they see God(OT)

Sorry y'all talk too fast. I'm catching up on all the conversation

aren't they all the same? i thought it's just different voice

oof sorry bud 😂

Hinduism

*birdbox theme song plays*

Again man, a lot of Christians feel this way lol. I feel this way at times. What we lowly humans have to understand is that as long as we make the choice to jump GOD will GUARANTEED catch us

I think there is a story telling us that a man did and he went blind

only if we agree with god, though. god won't be there if you don't agree with him

No, lol. KJV is a more “editorialized” version. It was made by one skewed church at the bad commission of a king so that it would be confusing. It’s a pretty bad interpretation if I’m being honest

that sounds like the artemis story?

If you tell God not to catch you then He won’t catch you. It’s your choice

Artemis?

Yeah, and we can go to the greek, hebrew or latin for reference. We do have those manuscripts.

I’m unaware of this story

lol i got the KJV version from a ranting and raving dude yelling at me saying the bible saved his life and push the KJV version at me

Before the flood, human DNA was corrupt. Nephielliem , fallen angel had sex with humans and was trying to destroy human DNA, change Gods plan. In Garden of Eden, God gave a solution to fix fall of mankind. He will crush the head of the serpent.

yeah. the story was a man accidentally stumbled on artemis bathing nude, so she blinded him but allowed him the ability to foresee the future

Oog, please no KJV. If you want to spend money on a really solid translation with study help then I recommend the Sourgeon Study Bible. Olive tree Bible app on phone is also good for going mobile

I recommend the ESV translation

Oh its a different reilgon

It goes back to satan creating doubt in your mind. Like a said earlier you have a take a leap of faith

if he could crush the head of the serpent, why didn't he kill satan right away?

Sin isn’t in our DNA, it’s in our nature

Yelling Geronimo on the way down 😂

I don’t know if our DNA was corrupt more on this later

it's free on youtube! thank god lol

Because we need free will

DNA, nature. what is the difference?

Olive tree Bible app is free and they also have free audio bibles

It’s not literally encoded into our DNA is what I meant. If by dna you meant that it comes naturally to us then you are correct

Lol
