the bible is a collection of magical stories written copied and redacted over many MANY centuries.
our current version is from 1611 ish
I personally don't believe God needs a book to communicate with us.
“Needs a book to communicate with us”? Nope, totally agree with you on that.
But to be able to make sure we know the difference between Him speaking to us and the other spiritual beings who are literally out to deceive and kill His creation, how would He explain to us the difference, without a physical document that exists in our physical realm?
Yes, I know you will say man has altered the books, and even that they used “magic” to manipulate and create the “prophecies” within it... but again, God would cease to be God if mere men and lower spiritual forces could thwart His work/plan in His creation (in the way the scriptures portray Him as omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent)
Gotta nap before a doctors appointment. Will reply later if need be 👍
@LukeAG The God question mankind is wondering about since forever is naturally reflected in our life reality and stories also since we started to record our thought dreams and ideas and therefor it is in our culture, history, art, scriptures and so on.. When you look at natures creation from a flower to a Galaxy you can only wonder who, how and why and for what reason. This is what i see in the bible and other religious works, far older then the bible and Christianity. We see stories like the flood based in reality where 12000 years ago something like that happened by the bible attributed to God.. Now with returning knowledge we attribute it to a comet strike.. We see teachings about moral and kindness and life and good and evil that apply to all ages and all people and all religious or not. I can see the good in that, the teachings of Jesus and people like him before and after and i doubt that he even seen himself as the only one son of God .. we all are and God is in us all. That was a radical thing to say in a time where the King was God.. and a certain group (ahum jews kuch) claimed superiority.. Nailed Him to a cross as an lesson. DO NOT revolt DO NOT question authority AND DO NOT question our God.. So to go back to the Bible as a work of men, as a historical record a moral compass a guide to "enlightenment" small parts of that is still in there it's that good, but 30/50 books are completely omitted from the bible most of them are burned into oblivion gone forever so who knows what the full bible entailed but i bet it was a much better and more coherent story, the version we are left with is a by bad men redacted shadow of what it once was or supposed to be. It's time we start adding the missing chapters again. Maybe Q is a chapter.
If they intended to erase all that was against their scheme, and everything you just said, they missed a TON of scriptures that completely stand opposed to the ideas of Humanism, “we are all god and god is all of us”... they missed a ton of verses where Jesus very clearly claimed to be THE son of God and that no other is from God, nor of God, and that humans are completely lost without Him. And they missed all those verses that say that man doesn’t even seek God on his own but only if the Spirit of God draws Him is he able to come back to the Father of all creation, that the heart of man is desperately wicked and evil in all its ways...
nope, if Christ was simply a good teacher, more highly evolved human, more enlightened, or trying to show us that we are all gods, His death and resurrection would have not been the central theme of the entirety of the scriptures, Genesis- Revelation. “They” would have cut out SO MUCH more than they supposedly did...
let me putt this one for you to ponder on... if i gave all the talent to putt into words and gave you a pen and asked you to describe God in all it's glory what would you end up with and a brush to pain the prettiest representations of what God looks like .. what would you end up with.
The Cross of Christ
It is the glory of God the Father and shows us everything about Him
nice one you would putt it all into one powerful sigil
You see you don't even need a bible
God is within if you ask me.. and i think your answer illustrates it.
But I wouldn’t understand that the Cross reveals everything about God unless I had learned about it through the scriptures. Otherwise I would have taken FOREVER to explain all my thoughts about God and painted an entire chapel ceiling to try and explain Him. It’s only because of the scriptures that I know the simplicity and complete understanding of God is found in the cross of Christ
Especially cuz I could talk your ear off due to my personality lol
discussions about religion are always fun 😁
Indeed 👍

I do not disagree that god is everything and we are god, i believe that the idea that we are god is exactly what the bad forces in nature try to abuse... try to manipulate and control US because WE are GOD, in order to remove create the universe they want to be in... this is the reason for the push in virtue seeking, nihilism and narcissism.
But they forget... we are not so controllable... just as they push on one side, they don't realize that we can push on the other, they thought we'ed just bow down to their demands of reality.
That's just my perception though...
God works through his people in mysterious ways ❤
Even if the scripture was manipulated, we all take it in differently, what they removed / left behind may have been suitable to imprint their ideas BUT they forget that perception is subjective and what they left behind could have been exactly what the people of belief needed to understand to push back against the oppressors when the time came.

Sorry had to throw this in here.
oh wow @SirW00f , hahaha... that dem is special... but that is EXACTLY what they wanted the UN / EU army for... to inforce the One World Goverment's laws on sovereign nations
now you know exactly what would have happened if that migration act was signed by the states 😉
foreign army on domestic soil.
a few elected officials of 1 nation that is not in control of said nation as in charge of it like the president, cannot call on the un to assist or defend their interests in their own nation
it's treason to go against sitting president with military forces unless it's voted by 2/3's sitting elected government according to usa laws
also if un complies with said request, they are officially declaring war with the usa
also said request has to be voted on by security council of the un, any military action that is not voted upon first is illegal according to official un charter
besides...we'd kick their respective butts if they tried anything
so what your saying, is that dem should be put into prison
that dem went outside the chain of command....did international relations without auth of president or state dept
which is illegal
