Bestbrain123:If you're not born again, you're not a Christian. You don't have an experience of the faith. What gives me joy is the ever abiding Presence of God. The sweet Presence of His Holy Spirit. One thing that gives me joy each time I remember is my everlasting home. The joy of it is immeasurable. When the Going is hard, I find solace in the Word of God which never fails: "Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you." Genesis 28:15. |
Maynman:I'm the one most fitted to say that to you. |
Maynman:The number 1 evidence is the Bible. Many books were purportedly written by the apostles of Christ which were filtered away and were not added to the Bible because they were regarded as spurious books. |
Maynman:I just told you the truth. |
Maynman:How did the individual who contributed the article to Britannica come to know that Christians were known to fabricate writings as he said? Was he there? Did he live at the time in question to have arrived at that conclusion? By virtue of church history, we are aware that many charlatans arose in those days who in a bid to either gain undue recognition or promote antichristian ideologies, wrote books claiming to be authored by highly respected Christians. The book of Barnabas is an example. There are many such writings but the Church fathers filtered many of them off. That's why, though there are several thousands of ancient Christian writings as of today, only a few of those writings are accepted in christiendom. This article written by Clement refered to by Sirtea15 above does not fall in the category of those unscrupulous Christian writings. It is adjudged to be an authentic writing of Clement himself. |
