Ok this topic can get REAL blasphemous really fast so I'm going straight to the point. My intention is not to offend but to educate people on what the Bible truly is, the very innerant infallible word of God. Many evangelical Christians would not disagree with my statement.
However, a lot of evangelicals don't believe the word of God literally. Tell me, which is it? If its the Word of God than wouldn't the Bible be infallible and without error? Because, God IS infallible and without error! So why are topics like complementarianism or topics like creationism or topics like Eternal security or slavery or homosexuality or any divorce, or anger, or any other topics taken from the Bible, not only not believed, or even talked about but avoided like they're the plague? If you believe the Bible is the word of God, than these things HAVE to be true because they come from the very mouth of God! The Bible is not only true history but its also breathed out by the very mouth of God! If your god is against the Bible than its not really from the God who created the universe and everything in it!
All this being said I'm not saying these people aren't Christians or that they cannot be saved. Salvation is by faith alone in Christ alone. Salvation comes from God not man and its not our place to say who is saved and who isn't. As we don't save anyone or nobody saves themselves. Salvation is completely, 100% a work of God. How do I know? The Bible says so. How do we know Jesus loves us? The Bible tells us so. How do we know the will of God? The Bible tells us. The Bible, tells us everything we could ever know about God and about life. When Jesus was tempted by Satan he didn't use his own thoughts or inclinations. He didn't attack Satan physically he used the word of God against him. Why? Because the word of God is that, the very words of God.
Otherwise if you doubt even a single part of the word of God it's no longer the word of God but of man. Because God is perfect in each and every way.
Sadly I'm getting the feeling that only my reformed brothers and Sisters will fully agree with me. It shouldn't be that way. The word of God should be viewed and read the same way by all who believe in Jesus. For, how can you truly believe in one whose words you twist to get him to say what you want him to say? Why not just read God's words for what they truly are? God speaking to you.
