Do not read the Bible with a natural mind and reasoning, allow God's Spirit to open things up to you. Many People on planet earth, are lost and suffering from evil habits and lifestyles because they have ignored Holy and righteous living, following God is for the good of man.


1 Corinthians 2
[14]But people who aren’t spiritual can’t receive these truths from God’s Spirit. It all sounds foolish to them and they can’t understand it, for only those who are spiritual can understand what the Spirit means.




2 Corinthians 4
[4]Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, this is really funny!

So going by your logic whatever information that reaches us first is that which comes from the authentic source, shey?

Then why are you born within the 20th century speaking against the book published in the 17th century? cheesy

My friend the time those books were published is not what matters but the source from which all the publishers got what they translated. You and i are chatting now due to what we know, your ability to translate what you have in mind matters much than when it's translated.

What's written in the Bible isn't from the publishers of KJV, NIV, RSV, NWT or any other TRANSLATION, they're just translations not the real source of the information!

I believe you should be smarter than this! smiley

First of all do you now agree that your logic was misplaced?
The translators of KJV committed a lot of blunders that's what prompted other translations.
So all you need to do is calm down and reason not just hastily dismissing everything simply because you're frustrated with the way life is going generally.
For your information, thieves, ritualists, rapists and many more are results of the frustration hidden within the hearts of many around you. So don't think others aren't feeling the same way you do, but real intellectuals takes things step by step.

The real source of the information found in the Bible is GOD! 2Timothy 3:16
The writers whose names you found as titles of each book are like secretary to the Author (GOD) so it's His thoughts they penned down not their own! 2Peter 1:21

Now the translators found the information and couldn't just turn away that's why they're trying to interpret it for others to grasp the import of the messages.
If they get it right you will see the result in the midst of those putting it to use! Matthew 7:16-18

I am one of God's friends so no matter your grievances or harsh response i perfectly understood what you're going through in within! Proverbs 20:5

So calm down and ask your questions! 1Peter 3:15 smiley

Through different means: dreams, visions and sometimes angels (supernatural beings) were sent to tell them what to write {Hebrews 1:1} they heard and penned down those informations!

My friend, books are meant to be read and UNDERSTOOD.
To anyone who read the book but couldn't grasp it's content such a book will mean trash but to those getting the sense and making the best use of it's content nobody can convince them otherwise.

Ummmmm! And they penned down 4 different accounts of The Resurrection of the same person in the 4 gospels and no one actually saw the resurrection take place.

In Matthew: Mary Magdalene and the other Mary saw an angel. "Come and see the place where he lay. "He has risen"
In Mark: Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome saw a young man.
In Luke: The women saw 2 men who said to them "He is not here; he has risen!"
In John: [Notice there was no angel or young man. Here it was just Mary Magdalene, Peter and the other disciple]
"Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance.". "So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple". "Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb". "The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen". "Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside". "Then the disciples went back to where they were staying"

The points of emphasis regarding resurrection is what matters not what different people who are contemporaries said about the event!

Jesus was betrayed!
He was arrested!
He was arraigned, charged and judge wrongly!
He was executed and on the third day he rose from his tomb.

Do they all agree on these note? smiley

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is coming back again Rapture style... According to the FSM, those who don't believe him will go to and rot in hell where their flesh will be roasted and fed to Spaghetti Monster demons.

No they don't as none of the women and the disciples actually saw the resurrection take place. They only saw an empty tomb and still gave four different accounts.

Well God doesn't have the time to waste on those who have proved to be useless to Him, they will die like all others the only difference between the faithful and faithless is the RESURRECTION hope.

So calm down and learn, what God told Adam is "you will die and return to dust" that was the judgment of the worst criminal in the history of mankind! smiley

Remember they all saw him being killed and later saw him again but this time alive so all what you're reading are what each person could gather regarding their leader who was dead and living again.
Of course they need to explain what they knew regarding his come back after death because they were battle prepared to die for the fact that he is no more a dead man! smiley

Actually the unicorn in the Bible has been linked to rhinoceros, just because of difficulty translating it to English they use the word unicorn. The Bible wasn't written in English so some times you still need to refer back to the original language when interpreting to find out what the etylogy says.
