People do. The Bible was written by people.GOD doesn't lie.
Plain and Simple.
I've tried. The line is dead.You call Him.
His number is JEREMIAH 333.
Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
People do.

The line is dead.
This does not mean anything to me, AV. You have not rebuked me or made me fear for my soul or any of those things. I do not believe in your religion, AV. I do not believe that your holy book has any sacred truth above any other text written by people. Quoting your holy book to me is an exercise in futility. I do not care what you believe about your holy book, AV.Yes, people lie.
1 Thessalonians 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
You (and others) demonstrate the truth of this verse, when you deny the Bible was written by God; since the verse says, "which effectually worketh also in you that believe."
When you deny It, you show that It is not effectually working in you.
Well, I'm talking so...On which end?

I mean you have no problem reading what I'm saying, right?
All scripture is GOD breathed.Apparently, some people do think it all has to be ultra-literal or that it's somehow not worth the time.
So all of it is literally true?All scripture is GOD breathed.
GOD doesn't lie.
Why would he put something in scripture for it not to be as he says?
Not sure about everyone else but as someone that's a believer of the LORD not sure we can even comprehend his understanding. Or his ways?
Isn't he beyond understanding? His ways so much higher than all of ours combined?
'GOD couldn't have done these things'
Sounds more like us trying to rationalize something we simply can't comprehend
A not an untypical example of misoverestimation of self.This does not mean anything to me, AV. You have not rebuked me or made me fear for my soul or any of those things. I do not believe in your religion, AV. I do not believe that your holy book has any sacred truth above any other text written by people. Quoting your holy book to me is an exercise in futility. I do not care what you believe about your holy book, AV.
So all of it is literally true?
Or is there room for interpretation?
You say he is beyond comprehension so maybe
don't be so sure you know why it says what it does.
The spirit you refer to- why are there 40 000God breathed and literally true are different matters.
There is no place for human interpretation - the Holy Spirit opens the eyes of our understanding.
Beyond comprehension is no reason to doubt what we are given to understand.
You say he is beyond comprehension so maybe don't be so sure you know why it says what it does.
The spirit you refer to - why are there 40,000 sects with different interpretations?
Do you interpret the "flood" story as literal?
The bible was written by people and authored by the Holy Spirit.People do. The Bible was written by people.
The spirit you refer to- why are there 40 000
sects with different I terpretations?
Do you interpret the "flood" story as literal?
So much the worse for any credibility he might have had.
