The apostles did not have the Book you call the Bible. Many of them were uneducated so even the scriptures during their time was far from them. undecided

Instead, those who have the Bible to read have chosen to worship it as if a god of sorts when it was never intended as one. It is indeed a book that contains the Word of God(Jesus Christ) but itself is not holy or divine in anyway or form.

There were many many different scrolls in the different synagogues during even the time of Jesus Christ - some even had the writings now compiled in the Talmud, among other Rabbinic teachings ..so which one? undecided

You say this? Is it different to claiming God told you what you read in a book?

Jesus never said anything of the sort to me Kobo, and I can bet 10k that Jesus never said anything of the sort to you either.

Is it not true that you read it in a book?

Trust me, the below is your truest statement. It is unfortunate that you do not even seem to understand what you yourself write!
I can't trust yoiu because you are merely a human being and those who put there trust in humans are cursed by God Himself.
I do see how you conveniently ignore the part where I state what it is that is important in all that is written in the very same bible.

1. Did Jesus Christ teach you that a book, that did not even in existence when He walked the earth, was a holy book? undecided

2. Did any of the prophets of God before Jesus Christ see a future where a holy book called a "Bible" by those who have it, would come down from God to you?undecided

3. We learn from the book of Genesis that all Knowledge, be it of Good or of Evil, belongs to God - i.e. all knowledge is inspired by God since it all belongs to God. God is the one who doles out knowledge, wisdom, and understanding to All those who seek it. So, this idea that only the knowledge in the Bible belongs to God stands in contradiction to the very word of God as documented in many of its books. undecided

Which Book Did Jesus Use In D Synagouge?
Re: The Letters Killeth Without The Spirit. by budaatum: 8:32pm On Mar 10, 2021
First. You say, "a book". Jesus specifically said that those who read only one book will become malnourished, so do not live by bread alone but by every Word that God wrote.

Second. God does not write in books. God takes mud, crafts it in God's image, and breathes God's Word's in it. This is what John is telling you when he says all things including humans, are created by the Word.

Know that I expect you to disagree because no one has told you to believe this yet and the Holy Spirit has not yet ministered it to you.

Kobojunkie:
1. Did Jesus Christ teach you that a book, that did not even in existence when He walked the earth, was a holy book? undecided
Yes. When Jesus was tempted on the mountain, he said "It is written", three times, and satan departed from him.

Only those who read books, which Jesus obviously did, and who understand, which Jesus obviously did, can say what is written to such effect.

We also learn that Jesus the Word became flesh and lived amongst us, so one should expect some smart dudes to furnish us with the Word that became flesh that we now read about Christ because if they had not written what we now read, Christ will have died and be forgotten when we crucified him.

Kobojunkie:
2. Did any of the prophets of God before Jesus Christ see a future where a holy book called a "Bible" by those who have it, would come down from God to you?undecided
Yes. If they hadn't seen a future where a book called whatever you want to call it would be read by you today, they would not have bothered to write it at all.

In fact, you yourself add to what they wrote with every word that you write here on Nairaland, except that because you are not aware of that fact, instead of allowing yourself to be directed by the Lord God Almighty, you write your own understanding and claim it is from God.

It is your understanding of the Word of God that stands in contradiction, and not the Word of God.

First, you assume that God wrote that which you read in the Bible, which is clearly an error on your part. Then you assume that God's knowledge is in only one single book when Christ specifically said that the reading of one single book will malnourish you as we can obviously see.

I guess it's going to be difficult for you to fully grasp the knowledge that God is giving to you because buda is a mere human being and you seem not to trust the Holy Spirit that is within youself. But I have faith in you, kobojunkie, and always will.

You are one of the weirdest Christians I’ve ever come across. No need for prolix nonsense in response. You’re a christian.
You don’t have any understanding either, you have faith like the rest of the christians but you think you’re unique because you call it understanding. e.g. the Adam and Eve slavery nonsense you insist is correct.

“ Second. God does not write in books. God takes mud, it in God's image, and breathes God's Word's in it. This is what John is telling you when he says all things including humans, are created by the Word.”

Only a Christian reads the above and thinks it makes a lick of sense.

Lol! Martian. I guess you will continue to find it hard to understand that buda is not a Christian, but let me give you a clue all the same.

Christians read a book and believe what they read. buda reads books to understand what is written in books.

But as I said, hard for a Martian to make a lick of sense of what they can not be bothered to understand. Lol.

Which Did Jesus Use In D Synagouge?
Depends, what you mean by "use". undecided
Jesus Christ was no regular at any of their synagogues since He was there to teach a different Truth from that which their religious leaders taught.
It is documented that in one synagogue where He tried to preach His Truth, the people there instead tried to throw him off a cliff after He graced them with His presence.

Luke 4 vs 16 -30 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16. Jesus traveled to Nazareth, the town where he grew up. On the Sabbath day he went to the synagogue as he always did. He stood up to read.
17. The book of Isaiah the prophet was given to him. He opened the book and found the place where this is written:
18. “The Spirit of the Lord is on me. He has chosen me to tell the good news to the poor. He sent me to tell prisoners that they are free and to tell the blind that they can see again. He sent me to free those who have been treated badly
19. and to announce that the time has come for the Lord to show his kindness.”

20. Jesus closed the book, gave it back to the helper, and sat down. As everyone in the synagogue watched him closely,
21. he began to speak to them. He said, “While you heard me reading these words just now, they were coming true!”

22. Everyone there said good things about Jesus. They were amazed to hear him speak such wonderful words. They said, “How is this possible? Isn’t he Joseph’s son?”
23. Jesus said to them, “I know you will tell me the old saying: ‘Doctor, heal yourself.’ You want to say, ‘We heard about the things you did in Capernaum. Do those same things here in your own hometown!’”
24. Then he said, “The truth is, a prophet is not accepted in his own hometown.
25-26. “During the time of Elijah it did not rain in Israel for three and a half years. There was no food anywhere in the whole country. There were many widows in Israel during that time. But the fact is, Elijah was sent to none of those widows in Israel. He was sent only to a widow in Zarephath, a town in Sidon.
27. “And there were many people with leprosy living in Israel during the time of the prophet Elisha. But none of them were healed; the only one was Naaman. And he was from the country of Syria, not Israel.”

28. When the people in the synagogue heard this, they were very angry.
29. They got up and forced Jesus to go out of town. Their town was built on a hill. They took Jesus to the edge of the hill to throw him off.
30. But he walked through the middle of the crowd and went away.

The cheek! Quoting one single sentence and thinking you could get away with hiding how ignorant you are! You must think we are all ignorant like you are, Martian, or you must at least believe so.

What you wrote is in the early parts of the book and could easily be gotten from a list of Heidegger's quotations, so stop trying to play wise and make out you read a book you never read like one who quotes a Bible verse and claims they read the whole book!
