Does the Bible teach us how to use a computer?
Is every single piece of information in the Bible?

No it does not, However if a human was permitted to marry a computer, God would in fact give outlines how the human is to treat His computer and how the computer is to treat the human. This is the point of this thread.

hmmmm how about this: you treat the ones you love with respect and put thier needs first? Wouldn't that cover it?
For example:

See? It's not as hard as we make it appear. :)
tulc(just a thought) :)

True, we are to love everyone, in that, you speak Truth, but what we are discussing is sexual relationships, Which the Bible clearly defines for a husband and wife, or a husband and his virgin, clearly discusses how we are to treath wives, widows, the elderly. The question is though, why NO MENTION how a man is to treat his husband or a woman to treat her wife ?

This would only makes sense if you aren't deceived and/or blinded from the truth. The Bible, and yes Jesus plainly speak of what marriage should be, but if that isn't the answer you want then you can't see it.​


Instead we see questions ask about how the Bible doesn't speak about cars or even computers, and think that shows something.​


The Bible tells us how we are to avoid certain thinks like fleshly lusts, so that would tell us that we shouldn't look at porn on a computer. So again, it's in there. The Bible covers everything we need to know, and we don't even have to cross our eyes to see it.​


The Bible tells us not to do things in excess, so again, that would mean me shouldn't spend to much time on the computer, neglecting other things like time with the Lord and family.​


The Bible is the living word of God, and it is so neat to see how even today with all the culturial changes over the last 2000 years it still can lead and quide us through our short time in this dark world. It is so neat to know that God and Jesus don't change, and that they love us so much, even when we continue to fall so short of what we can and should be in Christ.​


Our Sunday School listen was so relevent for today. It was over 2 Peter 2, and the spiritual errors that are running so rampant today. I am praying about starting a thread about and including it, but am still in prayer about that.​

You have rightly said.
i would like to comment on your statement

The Bible tells us not to do things in excess, so again, that would mean me shouldn't spend to much time on the computer, neglecting other things like time with the Lord and family.

God is a jealous God, Any time, in no matter what you are doing, if your thoughts are off of Him, this is when satan will creep in and tempt you. There are many things that take us away from thinking on righteous things, thinking on God, all of which satan can use against us. Do don't be as Peter, when he was walking on the water to Christ, and sank, because He looked away from Him. The secret then is, to not look away from Him, keep your eyes and focus on Him, keep your thoughts on Him, and you will never stumble, and satan will not be able to touch you.

Eph:6:11: Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Don't put on some of the armour, but all of it. Don't love sin more then God, The greatest commandment is to love God with ALL of your heart, and with ALL thy soul, and with ALL thy mind, and with ALL thy strength: this is the first commandment.

If then a person loves to commit a particular sin, they do can't possibly love God with All their heart. If then a person knowingly and willingly commits that sin, they can't possibly love God with all their Strength. If a person lusts ( after anything at all ) They can't love God with all their mind. And if they think they can't possibly cease from sinning, then they can't possibly love God with all their Soul.

You cannot say Jesus is your Master and Lord, if you knowingly and willingly obey satan and commit sin, Your master is to the one you obey.

He didn't talk about how children should treat their parents either..

Eph:6:1: Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.

Col:3:20: Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.

So then children are to treat their parent by what their parents say they should treat them.

erm, where is that in the Bible?

If i told you, you would not believe it, If i told you where it says in the Bible that men are not to be with men, you would not believe that either, you believe what you want to, we believe what the Words of God teach. And this is what the Words of God teach.

1Cor:7:2: Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

How do you avoid sex before marriage ( fornication )? What does the Bible teach ? The words of God teach to avoid sex before marriage let every man have a what ? a wife, and let every woman have a what? a husband. This is what Scriptures teach, now the doctrine of men teach to avoid fornication a man can marry either a woman or a husband, altogether changing what Scriptures teach to fit their own agenda, listen not unto them, but obey Scriptures.

I Cor 7: 9: But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. 10: And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:

So then we see here that according to Scriptures a marriage consists of a husband and a wife, For it does not say let not the husband depart from the husband nor does it teach let not the wife depart from the wife, but clearly, so clear in fact that even children can read and understand, that a marriage in the eyes of God and His Scriptures have a husband and a wife, anything other then what Scriptures teach is doctrines of men.

still, the argument keeps on being about literalism/interpretation, is not like is going to end up somewhere

Here is Truth, a person will only go about to interpret a verse, if they do not agree with what it clearly says.

For the most part Scriptures was given to us, so that even children can understand it, leave it to humans to corrupt it and the simplicity of it, to change it into something other then what it says.

For example:

1Cor:14:34: Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.

what it says is what it means, there is no interpretation needed, only those who do not agree with what it says will go about to interpret it into something different. Many interpret that verse to mean they are not allowed to preach, yet it does not say they are not allowed to preach, it clearly says they are to be silent. This is why there is division amongst the brothers and sisters, because the simplicity of the Words of God has been lost, and now they have become confusing, and hard to understand, because of our own interpretations, because we will not accept what it clearly says. God made the Earth in 6 days, that is what it says, but because of scientists, and technologies, and satan, most no longer believe that it was created in 6 days, therefore they go about to interpret Genesis into something other then what it says, saying such things like it is a poem, or alogorical, or just a story that they told children.
Woe to the learned, for they think they know something, when they know nothing at all, and the simple will know the Truth, while the wise think they know it and do not.
Our Father did not give us complicated, or confusing Scriptures, they are easy to understand, easy to grasp, and speak with plainess of speech, He made sure it was this way, that even children could learn the Truth and come to Him through His Words, leave it to the learned to corrupt its teachings, saying things which are contrary to Scriptures, just to suit their own thinking and their own beliefs.
But you child of God, believe the Words, in simplicity and save your soul from Hell fire, For our Father loves us, and He gave us simple instructions to follow, so that we can find our way back to Him. This do and believe, and you shall live in Heaven for all eternity.

That is all quite interesting but rather than rely on the interpretation of someone who does not know Hebrew, let us see how the ancient Jewish scholars understood the Hebrew scriptures on this point? Do you somehow think all the Hebrew speaking Jewish scholars got it wrong and only you got it right?
What am i to do with this generation that is before my eyes? How will they escape the wrath of God ?

Tell me, does our Father desire that we become learned in order to know and understand His Words ?
i will tell you the Truth, i have studies Hebrew and Greek, and even Latin, i have cross referenced with this reference and that, i have studied countless hours upon hours, i have read many books concerning the Words of
God, and to what purpose, all of it is even as dung, i was fruitless, and the Holy Ghost revealed to me, it was a waste of my time and energy to learn all that stuff. For God made His Words so easy to understand, that even children can understand it and learn the Truth therein. What then, we are going to stand before God on Judgement Day and He will condemn us because we did not know Hebrew or Greek? Nay, He will condemn us because we did not merely believe His Words and what they said.
Leave it to humans to interpret it and confound the meaning thereof. Most of the Scriptures is in no need of interpretation, and the parts that do need interpretation are clearly indicated within its own text that it is for interpretation ie this is a parable or revelation.
Children who merely believe the Word, shall be the judges of those who are learned and think they know something.
Tell me, if i interpret a verse correctly, whose interpretation is it ? It is mine is not? who am i ? i am nothing, a nobody, a filthy rag, prone to mistakes and prone to misinterpretations, i am as dung, But if i believe the verse and what it says, whose it then ? it is not my interpretation, because i have not interpreted it, i merely believe what it says, therefore it is not mine, but Gods, and because i merely believe it, it will be counted towards me as Righteousness.
Do you want to know the Truth ? Do you really want to know the Truth that will set you free? Then i beg of you, forget everything you ever were taught, forget everything you believe. Then pick up the Bible and start in Matthew 1:1 and merely believe what it says, and when you come across a verse that you don't agree with by what it clearly says, and try to interpret it into something that you will agree with DON"T, believe what it says, no interpretation needed, and i assure you with no doubts whatsoever, if you do this, or better yet are able to do this ( pray for help ) you will know the Truth, and the Truth will set you free from all worries, and anxieties, and you will save your soul from Hell.
Remember, our Father gave us simple instructions to follow, because we are His children and He loves us, simplicity is the answer. You want to know the Truth, first merely believe it when you read it.
