By saying that truth is important to us, (which it is of the utmost importance to me) we are saying the word is important to us. In the "world" we have no absolutes, therefore whatever a person wants to believe is truth to that person. Truth to a Christian must be upheld in the Scriptures which are absolutely true. Our faith and our future rely on the truth of Scripture. We must believe that what God says He will do He will do or we have nothing more than a fantasy like the "world" believes in. Jesus says he is the truth so no Christian can deny the importance of it. IMO Well said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if someone reads the whole thing, and conclude that the Old Testament makes perfect sense and the "New Testament" does not? What then?

And it is only Bible Truth that is of any consequence. Furthermore, Grace and Truth are inseparable, since both came by Jesus Christ.Therefore, all other writings that support the preaching of Jesus are relevant.

Jesus is truth and He is my Lord and Savior. Sometimes I get benefit from reading all the red letters in the Bible. It comforts me to know what Jesus said.Yes, that is the truth. All other books should complement that, particularly, the epistles of Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if someone reads the whole thing, and conclude that the Old Testament makes perfect sense and the "New Testament" does not? What then?yahweh is perfect and just(righteous in all things).they will get what they seek.It means they are still under the shadow of the OT which is not the way to eternal life!

No need for more books or any removed makes it incomplete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a veil over men's minds.OK. The veil was removed with the supreme sacrifice of Christ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
