Bible has Flaws

a) Word of God, by man. 1. Interesting to note, that the Catholic bible has done exactly what AceViper2011 is talking about. They inserted false books into the Catholic bible to confirm their false teachings. When someone understands this from a historical point of view, then the Bible we have today is far more powerful since it's not so obviously tainted by man. What ive just said isnt going to hold alot of weight, but it should educate the fact that man has in the past tried to insert false teachings, and that people today can see from a doctrine and historical point of view, that this alone holds a foundation, over other so called words of God. What i mean by this, is when people look into Catholics and Islam, the historical foundation and alteration by man compared to the Bible, is like chalk and cheese. 2. In relation to writing the bible. Moses actually talked to God face to face. Someone which noone ever did. God dictated his word to man, which is very common in all forms of society, and this form of communication has grounding and a strong foundation alone. Yet God did much more, he forged a nation, man himself man, and died in a historical manner which confirmed all his ancient writings. God created the earth in six days, seventh he rested. Commanding of God. A) The biblical link Aceviper2011 was "killing forbid ex 20:13, then in ex 20:13 command killing." Ill need to wait for him to confirm which two verses he's referring to, since they're both the same. B) It's normal for parents to discipline their children. Only parents who love their children discipline them. God loved us so much, he didnt want man to be cursed, so he killed his own innocent son for us. So we will never be cursed. C) Jesus's deity isnt compromised just because they referred to God as him. John is known to have written all his books based off love. God waited to be known to mankind through a human form, to show that Yahway is a loving personal God, not a alien who lives in statues. John used the words him, to close the gap between man and God. But there is certainly no factual bases for saying that this is made by the hands of man. I urge you to look into the Koran, Catholic bible, bible of Jehovah witness, and Mormons . You will soon learn the difference between books from a real living God who applies rules for all time, and a god made by man. -One of your comments: Man is flawed so what they write is by default flawed. Problem is, they are not writing on their own behalf, they are guided by word and action by something which is perfect. D) Evil. Only example you get is, "If you love your own child, and teach all the good things of how to live, then later in life becomes a mass murder. Can i accuse you of creating a evil human?" RE: God could of gave us freewill to just choose only right things to do. He did, and does. Everyday you have the ability to choose only right things to do. But if there was a button in the back of your head which you flick so you only do good, and not bad, then your a robot who has no choice. He is forced to only do good because of the switch, so he isnt acting in free will at all. RE: ok well god forgot to mention in his word god himself being forgiven. What sin did Jesus commit? He didnt commit any sin, so he doesnt need to be forgiving. RE: if God truely wanted to make his Words all he had to do was basicaly snap his fingers and make a perfect book with no flaws or contradictions. When someone buys a car, but doesnt know how to drive it. Tell me, what is the difference between someone throwing you a manual in how to drive - and someone standing beside you, sitting in the seat by you, talking to you, teaching you how to drive. When your child wants to drive Aceviper2011, will you throw a manual on how to drive at him? Or will you show him personally on how to drive? I used a reference in driving to your question. Because what your saying is, Why didnt God make a manual for the human race? Why not just tell us how to do things correctly? The same reason why loving parents dont throw manuals at their children. Remember, we are made in the image of God, so we humans do things to our children in the same manner as God does to his children.
