Exactly.
Hence the problem I have with your statement "I have elevated razeontherock's statement and viacrucis' statement on par with St Paul's because I believe and state that I observe a significant truth in these statements."
It says "In the beginning was the Logos." The term "Logos" is from Greek philosophy, but refers in John 1 to God the Son. It does not refer to anything written.
Do you think that there is not significant truth in these statements, or that somehow St Paul's statements are not just a man's statement that contains significant truth? If so, please explain why, otherwise you really should explain why you have a problem because anyone is left to guess.
Yes, the common translation in English is "Word" rather than Logos. I object to people claiming that the bible is the Word of God, because there is no indication that it is a Christian concept, so far is as evidenced by the example set by original Christians in biblical scripture. All scriptural indications, especially John chapter 1 where the phrase originates, indicate that men either wrote what they thought was their honest belief, their honest recollection of events, or what God has directly told them. St Paul seems to write mostly his honest beliefs, as have razeontherock and ViaCrucis in these statements.
Signature is copy/pasted for future reference:
Psalms 25:14
Friendship with God is reserved for those who reverence him. With them alone he shares the secrets of his promises.
Ephesians 3:12
In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.
Worship the true God: ISAIAH 44:6-23
Galatians 5:22-23, NLT
But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
ViaCrucis
But Scripture seems fairly straightforward about what that forgiveness looks like, it looks like the Son of God hanging upon a cross. Jesus is God's forgiveness.
Razeontherock
Chucking your brain out the window makes Biblical Christianity impossible
