I Follow Jesus
@SomeSouthernGuy it's a good read.
> I Follow Jesus
@ARCADEIUS yes me too but learning about other religions and cultures is very interesting
@SomeSouthernGuy well I mostly use it as a tool when I'm preaching against Muslims
Cool are you a missionary?
> A lot of preachers nowadays are crap
@SomeSouthernGuy Try pastor Greg Laurie.. and John MacArthur, I believe his name is..
I listen to both of those guys
No I just study it and believe it 100% if I could I would be like these Street Preachers
Billy Graham is also pretty interesting
Cleveland street preacher

Dorre Love
Also a local pastor near me Charles Lawson talk talks about the end times more than anything and goes down rabbit holes a lot but he's a pretty good listen

@ARCADEIUS i am always careful about sharing with other faith groups. I am/was friends with a man who was Jewish (he is still friends with my husband but I don’t talk to him very much) and he told me straight out he was not interested in hearing about my faith in Jesus. If people are curious I am happy to share but I really do try to respect people of other faiths. Those who are willing to have a conversation with me, well I share as long as they are open to hearing what I say. But I try to remain respectful at all times. I would never try to “catch” someone in a fault of their religion. I try to only say what the Bible says.
My favorite modern day preachers if anyone is interested are Robert Morris at gateway church Jimmy Evans family life today and Rick warren saddleback church.
Well you only include book that are inspired by God, hence Enoch is not included
You can read is as a "history" book
There are certain books not put in the Bible that are included in the Catholic Bibles. There are also other books not in either. Some are fake and some were not inspired by the Holy Spirit.
Others when compared to other books of the Bible certain books didn't add up. The book of James (not in the Bible) doesn't match other manuscripts. It claims Jesus made clay birds and make them alive. But Jesus' first miracle was turning water into wine.
The book of James is in the Qur'an.
There is another book claiming Jesus married Mary Magdalene, which doesn't add up in the slightest
There are reasons certain books aren't in most Bibles

@kendikane88 yes I agree with this and most of the time you're not going to convince someone with words they're going to have to see that there's something different with your life
I have read the Qur'an...it is an interesting read...but it is a lot

@SomeSouthernGuy
Action over words!!! Something alot of Christian's lack, including myself
True for me as well a lot of the time sadly
@DeButcher I'm just getting to your message to me from yesterday. I don't know what you are talking about "he had you in the first half, lol". I don't know about you, but I am a Bible-believing, born-again Christian. Is that the case with you? If so, your statement that it's always good to get informed about other religions is not an advisable thing to do for Christians. Jer. 10:2a says, "Learn not the way of the heathen". In Exo. 23:13 God forbid the Jews of even mentioning the name of the pagan idol gods, along with forbidding them from having the idol gods (20:3-5). Paul made no comparative religion speech when he spoke to the Athenians on Mars' Hill in Acts 17; instead, he chided them for their vain attempts at knowing the one true God, the God of the Bible, while still giving credence to a plethora of false gods, telling them in v. 22, "I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious." Now, we are commanded to "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:" (1 Pet. 3:15), and, Jude 3, "ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints." But, I don't see that as a charge to study out all religions. Instead, I have a duty simply to preach the Gospel (Mk. 16:15), and preach the word of God (2 Tim. 4:2). It is: study out the word of God (2 Tim. 2:15), not: study out unbiblical religions.
@DrStrange77 I'm just getting to your message from yesterday. No need to be sorry about how I feel. I am just taking what the Bible says and applying it to the situation, and seeing that Mormonism violates the clear and explicit command there in Gal. 1, seeing therefore it is not of God. No hard feelings or anything, I am just applying it and finding that Mormonism comes up wanting. The Bible is the sole authority for faith and practice--that was the keynote to the Protestant Reformation as well as the principle through the ages back to the beginning of Christianity of all Bible-believing Christians. When the last book of Revelation was penned down through John, God sealed His whole book of revelation, not just that from John, but the Bible overall with this in 22:18-19, "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." Therefore, any and all additions to the revelation completed then are illegitimate and not of God. It's too bad that you think Mormonism is legitimate, but if you can see and understand what God was saying in Gal. 1 and Rev. 22 you should be consistent and realize Mormonism is not of God.
@DannyNC1 Satan brought 200 Angels who thought the women of Earth We're beautiful. They had children with women and these children were the Giants of great renown
This is in the times when men begin to multiply over the Earth
What does that have to do with anything?
