[QUOTE="Clare73, post: 77639597, member: 309690"] 1) That is good to hear, but your responses do not give that impression. 2) [COLOR=rgb(41, 105, 176)]There is [I]no[/I] belief of the Bible which is not [I]given[/I] by the Holy Spirit.[/COLOR] 3) I likewise wanted to believe it, but could not. I couldn't make myself believe what I did not believe. The way in for me was a sincere commitment, "I'll believe it until I can't." And then, not knowing what else to do, I started at [B]Ge 1:1[/B]. And wonder of wonders, I never reached the point where I couldn't believe it. Rather, with each chapter it grew more and more in power and glory, until the deal was closed in the book of Leviticus, which has remained my favorite book, it being the foretelling of Christ. I have been a student of Scripture for decades ever since. [/QUOTE]
