Re: no christian believes this bible verse
2.1. The bible: contradictions, inconsistencies, absurdities and flaws
Christians refer to the bible as god’s holy word and it is the primary tool used by christians to support god’s existence. Well, let’s critically examine this book to evaluate whether there is any truth to this notion. If the bible was truly revealed to man by god and since god is perfect and all-knowing, the bible should be
- - without error, inconsistency, contradiction, flaw
- - be written in a coherent and lucid manner;
- - should be accurate and
- - contain advanced information that would not be known to primitive man
So Trapper has your imagination being led by the bible in the first instant and thwarted by time so you turn to a spiritual belief instead?
"God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth." (John 4:24)
When we realize spirituality is the presence of the infinite in our lives, we know that it can only be a gift. The finite cannot grasp the infinite. The infinite must grasp the finite. In a sense, that is Jesus what Jesus came to do. He died and rose from the grave to make us spiritual people. On the cross He took our separateness from God upon Himself, and in return He gave us His union with the Father. He took our farness from God and gave us His place in the Father’s presence. Living in His accomplishment is what it means to be spiritual. God has made us spiritual people, and any deeds we do are merely the fruit of our relationship with the Lord.
Is that your belief system for that is the only thing that makes any sense plus the fact that the Earth and it's living creatures has been created by the elements.
