I'm not saying God is unreliable. I'm saying man is unreliable.

That's the point.

No disagreement there!

But what is in question here, is the bible. Where do you stand on the reliability of the bible? The word of God.

The miracle, Georgesbluegirl is that in spite of the limitations of the men who wrote the various books, inspite of the soci-political context in which it was penned - it remains the authentic revelation of God's mind to us people.

Amen Sachi!!!!

ok well i have a couple of questions, i have heard many many times by those who dont understand the Word, that i have witnessed to, that dont trust the Holy Word because they believe it was changed by man. Either by mistranslating or repeated translations etc.. They dont understand as well why we have so many verions too.

I put faith in God, and he teaches me in my heart and mind, the more i seek him the more i pray the more i study his Word , the more he leads me into all Truth. You must be led by the Spirit of God, you cant understand the Word unless you are born again.

i have to ask Georgesbluegirl where are the errors in the Holy Word, and you said it had to be "interpreted". Can you please explain these to me, thanks.

this is what you said on another thread Georgesbluegirl::

I put my existence in my faith in God.

The Bible is Inspired by God, but not infallible, for it was written necessarily in the words of men. Revelations is basically a metaphor. "

Amen Brother!

As far as to all the translations? that is a good question.

But praise God that we have them! I like to read various translations, it helps me get a better understanding of God and what He is saying to us.

There are some I wouldnt mess with because they really take away from, but most are good.

Our English language is so shallow compared to lets say greek and even spanish, as well as we use a lot of slangs.

But bottom line is no matter what translation we use or prefer, we must rely upon and seek the Holy Spirits guidence, and pray for God to open our understanding that we may behold the wonderful things written in His word!

Psalm 119:17 Deal bountifully with Your servant, That I may live and keep Your word.

18 Open my eyes, that I may behold Wonderful things from Your law.

This is just my opinion. If you don't like it you don't have to accept it. DISCLAIMER: I am not a christian.

2Peter1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

If scripture claims that it is not subject to interpretation, why do christians interpret scripture? Or should I be reading that this is only meant for prophecies?

But then, don't christians have different interpretations on the meaning of Revelation, which is prophetic in nature. It's all so confusing. Isn't it?

Regards,

Amen Larryt!

Hey undecided, I have a question for you.

What is it that is holding you back and keeping you in a state of being undecided?

Do believe that Jesus is real?

Private interpretation, as in interpretation without the Holy Spirit.

Dear Ayin Jade,

This is just my opinion. If you don't like it you don't have to accept it. DISCLAIMER: I am not a christian.

Private interpretation is the opposite of public interpretation. So I read the passage to mean that scriptural prophecies are meant for public interpretation, or no interpretation. I see no analogy to any Holy Spirit. How do you interpret that in there?

Dear JesusisGod,

This is just my opinion. If you don't like it you don't have to accept it. DISCLAIMER: I am not a christian.

To answer your 2 questions:

1) Nothing is holding me back. Nothing keeps me in a state of indecision.

2) I do not believe Jesus is real.

Regards,

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
