vapid:[b]when i say literal, i do hope you understand the meaning of words. when i say the bible is not to be read literally. I do not mean the incidents in the bible are false. God is real. i mean do not read it like a novel. i give you an example. the story of biafra and nigerian civil war based on the igbos thinking they are not getting a fair shake. now this is a real story right ? now let me present the story to you allegorically-symbolically. two twins named ikechukwu and ademola were born on the same day but ademola was older by 7 minutes and was much bigger , taller and stronger. when it came time to choose rooms in a new house their father built, ademola picked the bigger and better room and this pissed off ikechukwu who didnt think he was getting a fair shake. so they started a war between each other and fought for a very long time. now thats symbolism. is the story of ademola and ikechukwu literally true ? no its not. however did the story that was presented symbolically happen ? yes it did. i hope you have been edified. thats how the bible is written. its true however its not literal. which is why it takes special people with the spirit of God in them to be able to understand the bible.

iskay1971:You guys always ignore clear cut contradictions in the Bible and tells us we need to be born again to really understand it,this is my take on this issue since we are in a world of many many faiths and ideology what if other faith says the same thing? That we should first accept Sango, Buda or even the devil or whatever as our lord and savior then we will gets a better understanding of their faith I really don't think a true God works this way God usually sends prophets with a message of truth to the people which may include a religious text to educate the people about God first then it is left to the people to accept or reject just like taking a class lectures first then exams after not exams first then class lectures after, God don't punish unless he has sent a Warner first God is a merciful God, he usually give more than enough warnings before he can judge us for not believing in him but what you are saying is that we should believe in him first then we will understand his warnings(religious text) |

ShakurM:Let's assume for the purpose of seeking knowledge that what you are saying is logical, help me explain this 3 examples Question 1: "What age was Jehoiachin when he began his reign?" Answer: Second Kings 24:8 declares, “Jehoiachin was 18 years old when he began to reign,” while 2 Chronicles 36:9 says, “Jehoiachin was 8 years old when he began to reign.” Question 2:when was light created? Answer - Bible says in Genesis Ch. No. 1 Verses No. 3 and 5,…‘Light was created on the first day.’ Genesis, Ch., 1 Verses, 14 to 19… ‘The cause of light - stars and the sun, etc. was created on the fourth day’. How can the cause of light be created on the 4th day - later than the light which came into existence on the first day? Question 3: how many bath did solomon had? Point No. 20 - Further, it is mentioned in the 1st Kings, Ch. No 7, Verse No 26, that…‘In Solomon’s temple, in his molten sea, he had 2000 baths. In 2nd Chronicles, Ch. No 4, Verse No 5, he had 3000 baths. Did he have 2000 baths or did he have 3000 baths? – If the previous ones are qoute out of context what of this few questions? Does that means God can't differentiate between simple 2000 and 3000 as in the case of solomon? |

Zakamori:oooh...i taught the writers were guided by the holy spirit...now i know better...the spirit inspired them with the words of god and left them to write otherwise......and for God sake i wouldnt compare the bible with historical books....if it is really inspired to men by god as you claimed...it should be preserved by god from such errors... #atleast we have a common point of agreement...we both agreed it was written by men not by jesus himself nor was it written in his presence... and that like every book of history there are bound to be errors..... FYI....THE QURAN IS NOT A BOOK OF HISTORY AND THERE ARE NO ERRORS IN IT...IT HAS PASSED SEVERAL GENERATIONS FROM ONE HAND TO ANOTHER, ONE SLAVE TO ANOTHER ,ONE MASTER TO ANOTHER ..ONE NATION TO ANOTHER FOR MORE THAN 1400 YEARS AND NOT A SINGLE ERROR OR MISTAKE IS FOUND SO THE BIBLE THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE 2000 YEARS OLD SHOULD BE THESAME IF IT HAS NOT BEEN CORRUPTED. THE QURAN....HMMM ....WORDS OF GOD WELL PRESERVED...I ADVISE YOU TO TAKE A GLANCE ON IT ENGLISH TRANSLATN WITH A FREE MIND...KNOW ISLAM B4 YOU JUDGE IT |

folafola:Many Times Christians post passages from the Quran on war and say that Islam is not valid because of these verses because of the violence. I will quote several verses from the Bible showing the brutal terror found in it, I will be quoting from the OT. Christians should have no problem with it, since its the same God, so hence if the God of the OT said kill then it means Jesus said kill because he has no God. So Christians have no way out of this mess. Note : I have great respect for jesus (peace on him) and the rest of the biblical prophets. I am only exposing the flawed mentality of people when they accuse the Quran for no reason while they have truly horrible things in their own books. Let us begin: ?? |

SuperSuave:I Cor 1:18-25. 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. |

...everthing about the modern christanity is human.....even the divinity of christ was debated in the council of nicea b4 it was agreed that christ was divine b4 the council christ was human and was never a son of God.....in thesame council many gospels of men of god were rejected by MEN because it didnt go well with their expectation...gospels like that of barnabas...a deciple and freind of christ were rejected because it gave the prophesy about the coming of another messemger and xplained clearlly that christ was just human and a great messenger of God and nothing else.....christains read about your history.....i dont think you need the holy ghost to do that... |

elijah2u:yeah..in islam we have such imams like pastors do understand points differently...but we dont and we cant prove the words of God wrong in the quran ..the are always thesame...if the quran says 10...then it will always be 10 on that particular issue even in the deepest corner of the quran.. unlike yours...there is a differece......we are not saying your pastors are contradicting each other...we are saying the Book it self is contradicting it self...not jus on events bur even in common mathematical figures....lets be truthful to ourselves for once |

Zakamori:According to your above statement I still think it is in Christianity best interest not to call the Bible the word of God but it should be called "the word of God according to so and so (eg Mathew , Luke, John .....)" and for your information there's a big difference between typo error and contradictions in the Bible is like calling an apple a orange |

folafola:The scripture that Muhammad came with is called the Quran; which literally means, “that which is recited.” Because Muhammad (pbuh) did not write the Quran, he did not author it. But, the angel Gabriel came and recited it to him and Allah made his heart a receptacle to that, just as a satellite is receptive of waves and gives you images. Is there any other book in the history of the world that you know of that has been preserved, without the changing of even a dot? No book—only the Quran. Don’t take my word for it. Go to the library and read any encyclopedia -read what it says about Islam, Muhammad (pbuh), and the Quran. Read what non-Muslims say about Islam, the Quran and Muslims. Then you will see that what I am saying is universally documented; that Muhammad (pbuh) was the most profound individual in the history of humanity. Profound why? Read what non-Muslims have said. The Quran is the most profound piece of literature in history. Read what they said. Islamic life is so comprehensive, precise and dynamic that it has never changed. Read what they said. All of the previous prophets, their scriptures and their stories and the principle message they came with are mentioned in the Quran with profound detail. Did Muhammad (pbuh) meet them, talk with them, and collaborate with them to write their biographies? No, of course he didn’t. In the Quran, the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is referred to as the messenger of God, and that is his limit as a human being. |

A jester was found searching and reading the pages of the bible since he was a skeptic by a preacher. Curiously the preacher asked the jester what he was doing. The jester replied, looking for loopholes! |

@Op my roommate once had such a problem back then in school and he went to his pastor, guess what his pastor told him? You can't understand the bible until the holy spirit resides in you as the pastor was confused too. Truth be told the bible has been twisted to suit some people's egos, but my christian brothers will not want to accept this. If you truly want to understand the bible then you don't have a choice than to learn it in the original language in which it was written. If you translate one language to another language there is no how 100% of your message can be conveyed. For instance your yoruba bible imagine the stages it has undergone before it was finally translated to the yoruba language. Till today my major problem with modern christianity is that of trinity. If you ask them to explain it then you will be told that you can not understand it. Why then do you want me to believe in something i can't understand? How can God allow himself to be killed by the people he created? How can God even die in the first place? How can God keeps looking at a certain people till they killed his son? Isn't that delusional to believe or even think about it? Though not all christians believe in trinity. |

which means Jesus somehow endorses wine. In the same Bible again I saw in Galatians(can't remember the chapter and verse), where the fruits of the flesh were listed, drunkenness was listed also.
