I don't understand this,pls clearify it
"And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, ‘Who are you?’ He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, ‘I am not the Christ.’ And they asked him, ‘What then? Are you Elijah?’ He said, ‘I am not.’ ‘Are you the Prophet?’ And he answered, ‘No.’ So they said to him, ‘Who are you? We need to give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?’ He said, ‘I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, "Make straight the way of the Lord," as the prophet Isaiah said.’ (Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.) They asked him, ‘Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?’" John 1:19-25

This faith ish is really fading out...
so, people should just ignore the obvious, be irrational and remain foolish right?
What did God give us brain for?

the major problem is dat people seek rational explanation for evrythng buh not evrythng can rationally be explained, especially things that hve to do with revelation, inspiration and spirituality...things in d metaphysical realm.i am a professional philosopher nd trust me lots of these issues ihve ponderd, querried, denied...using the cartesian method but in d end u would realise dat as humans ther is very little we know nd
understand in the grand scale of things with our over stated knowledge. We tend to mke d mistake of interpreting evrythng only from one paradigm...but if u can extend d horizon of ur knowledge to accomodate other paradigm, u would realise an uncomon standpoint that is neither here nor ther...nothing is proven, nothing is dispeld, it boils down to wht u choose to hold on to...faith or reason- foolishness to heaven or wisdom to hell. I hve come to realise dat not all christians rily understand the word of God or what christianity is truely all about. My advice is dat just like me, take d wager- according to blaise pascal in his wager argument, the ultimate end will tell.

God is not a God of confussion anything from God suppose to be well understood,how do we get his message when what he sent to us is irrational and logically wrong,pls christians dont be blindfolded by what one pastor has told you,seek the truth your self and it will set u free.
Re: Problems With Biblical Inerrancy by zivility: 9:39am On Aug 03, 2014
The Bible contains The Word of God: seek and you shall find

Still there is huge human input in it - look at the bible history. It was in the hands of church for centuries banned to all; only the priest reads read from it occasionally. So u can see how it is inclined to benefit the church organisation. Imagine the words christ gave his life for the church! So he can make it a pure bride for himself!

However, The power of God still makes it possible for the Truth to still be found in the Bible.

The general beliefs deduced from the book are wrong! Jesus did not come for the sinners; He came for the righteous! The prayers of the righteous and hope for a Savior from God brought Jesus out of love to save them from this sinful world. Likewise the death of Jesus was not a necessary sacrifice but a crime against God by men! He was killed because he led people to God and away from dogma Matthew 21: 33. His words: Father forgive them for they know not what they do saved this world from The wrath of The Almighty

That effect is one of strict adherence. It is not unique to Islam. Christianity has its moments too.

You have to give any prospective convert a bible to read. If you are not there to guide him, the bible alone can hardly do the job.

bot101:
i'd advice you to see the effect of the quran in the lives of many muslims when it comes to strict inerrancy. also, you are the one to bring others to salvation using the word as guided by the spirit of God and the bible helps you to know this spirit.

It is not for the following reasons :

1. The Quran has borrowed and in some cases plagiarised stories from the bible and other gnostic books.
2. The Quran can only be understood in Arabic which means it was meant only for the Arabs
3. There are lots of inconsistencies and contradictions in the Quran which is why we need the Hadith.
4. The fruits of the Quran are an immediate put off.

do u think at all b4 u write. Where in john 1:19-25, that talks abt any prophet coming after christ. They ask john if he is christ, he said no. If he is the prophet or elijah, he said no. That he is the voice in wilderness, so where did u come up with a prophet coming after christ. Even if u don't believe in the bible that doesn't mean u shld give it a bad image
Re: Problems With Biblical Inerrancy by sdavirus: 9:56am On Aug 03, 2014
All this ones you guys are saying here will only lead you to madness and u will end up achieving nothing, only confusing yourself more.

For me, I have prayed in the name of Jesus, and it has worked wonders.
Let me share a bit with you.
Once, I was in a bus going back to UNI, here in Nigeria, and we were flagged down by policemen......we got arguing with them, and knowing how notorious Nigerian policemen are for releasing bullets, I decided to retreat, backing the road, and watching them, in case they shoot. Unknown to me, I was walking towards the road, and a long trailer was approaching and honking, but I was too focused on the men.
Next thing I know, I tried to take another step backwards, and it was as if my leg was glued to the ground, and a stronger foot was on mine...........just then, the trailer whisked past, like a feet away.....I looked down, and i was at the edge of the road........ I had to sit down to get back ma sanity.

I've had two friends, come back to life, just because a group of people decided to pray in the name of Jesus. One was shot on duty with the US army, and the other is a very huge actor in Turkey, who OD'ed.

Also felt the touch of an angel, when praying for someone most dear, that had been bedridden for more than 3months. I thought it was my brother grabbing my shoulder, but the hand felt real heavy, like it was Shaq or Hakeem the dream putting their hands on me.
I raised my head, no one. The instant I felt the hand, I telepathically ( that's the best way I can put it) heard "stop praying, your prayers have been answered" those were the exact words. I called her bro the next day, and he was like "you won't believe what just happened, they just discharged her, she's fine" I smiled.

Stuffs like these leaves me in awe of Jesus. If people don't believe he's real or the bible isn't his word doesn't change who he is. He can't change his word to please mere mortals like us. He is truth, and we need to seek him in truth and in spirit. For we to understand God/Jesus better, we need to have the heart and mind of children.

Just as Tom Hanks said in angel and demons or the prequel or sequel, when he was down in that well, and cried to Jesus, he came through. That's the way I see him.


Look to Jesus, and not the letters. I pray all these-your questions draw you closer and not farther.

Amen.

P.S: I'm no preacher, just a regular guy that sins every other day, but has total faith in Jesus, and tries to please him.

Make no mistake about it, the Bible still conveys God' message of salvation for mankind in an effectual way.

When we used the term ' inerrant ' , we mean to say free from error, that is some people who say the bible is 100% accurate word for word and all the stories line up. This is just plain false and tantamount to lying.

I don't lie for GOD.

I cannot reply to all the comments, but let me summarise my position :

1. Unlike the 42,000 denominations and their CEOs Pastors , I am not asking you to join the frosbel church or frosbel line of thinking.
2. I am only asking you Christians to start engaging that wonderful miracle called the Brain and stop thinking with your Pastors Brain.
3. I am asking you to prayerfully ask God for wisdom like Solomon then read the bible again and you will notice that a lot of doctrines we hold dear are outright LIES. Examples, Trinity, Eternal Torment, Tithe etc etc.
4. The Bible overall is still a book with some of the most precious, inspired and comforting words sent to us by the one and only true God.
5. The overall message of the bible is consistent.
6. To say that the bible is inerrant when even Christian Scholars are saying otherwise makes us Liars.
7. I have to re-emphasise this, stop letting you Pastor think for you , he is not God or the final authority, God wants to speak with you directly.
8. Only people who have something to hide will ask you not to research the bible more deeply, in many cases they are scared that their false doctrines will be exposed and they will lose followers and hence MONEY.

Mchtewww, lame! you are welcome! people go to Osun, Sango, Ogun etc for all sorts of things too and they go back to them (Osun et al) to give positive testimonies, you could have called on one of those dumb things then too and come here with this same testimony

It doesn't alter the fact that Jesus is not a God but a man like you that was sent with a message

Or that, the bible was compiled by him years after his demise, even though early versions of the bible which your current day bishop will most frown at seeing in public domain contains salient religious points distict from ones christians practice today

Ever since, due to translations and all that laced with hypocricy, several verses were expunged, while rubbish were added into it

Our world is of two faces, up, down, good, bad, day, night, true, false, you can choose to cling on to the false, while you leave the rest to the rest!

one thing we can be sure of is the fact that the bible has been around for many many centuries. what about the pin point accuracies in the bible? for example the statement that Isaiah made about the shape of the earth, the fact that the earth is hanging upon nothing. he said the earth Is round, at that time no one had seen the earth and about a thousand years later the Greeks believed that the earth was being supported by two elephants standing on an even bigger turtle some people believed that Zeus punnished atlas by having him carrying the earth but we all now no that Isaiah who said what he said a thousand years earlier was right afterall, when in 1970 or so NASA took a photo of the earth from space and confirmed the roundness of the earth. what about personal hygene? God clearly told the isrealites how to take care of and dispose human wastes when even the intelligent Egyptians were still experimenting with human waste yes human waste as possible medicines which ended up killing more and more people
this is like mathematics. correct math can never be wrong instead our understanding of it can
