I hear many many people say stuff like, "But it says this in the Bible so it must be true" or something similar to that. How are you so sure that what you are reading in the Bible is the proper context in which God wants you to understand? or .. if you didn't understand what that meant ^ How do you know that what you read and perceive from the Bible is contextually true? P.S  I would say, "Respect everyones beliefs" .. but of course that isn't going to happen! smile

Well, I dont really know what exactly your asking so I'll just try and answer the best I can smile The Bible is not only the Holy Book of God, it's also in some ways, a very historically accurate book. It dates back as far as time itself. Even other kinds of books written by Romans or Greeks around the time period of Jesus Christ acknowledge that there was a Jesus and they support all the things in the Bible. And last of all, if you are a true and faithful Christian, you should believe the book that God has given to you. I mean, he wrote it through his disciples. He wrote the Bible. If God, who created everything, wrote a book....you have to believe its true. Why would he lie to you? If i answered your question, your welcome smile But if i didnt then sorry! just reply and I'll try again. Haha smile friend me!

Ayee smile Comment and stuff below.You should be my Friend.Coz if ur reading this ur cool...and im pretty cool myself...INSTANT BFFS..woah

Ok honestly the thing is, people don't know what to believe in the bible, at least I think so. It just up to you to believe if you really want to. No one really knows what to believe. But even God said that it is ok to have your doubts, He wants to remain a mystery

If only people knew how much the God of the universe is madly in love with them.

The Word is God-Breathed so....tht's an easy question to answer....God gives you a manual, you should believe in it..espically when it ties in with Science.

It only "ties" in with science because you twist your facts to fit your theories, instead of theories to fit with facts. Dazed

''God''' Just Didn't Tell A Man To Write down some random stories that all have a certain meaning off Faith..Or something..*Shrugs* Anyways. The Bible Was Written By Man. So How Do We Know Its Real? The Bible Isn't Really Proof. Its A Book Of Stories Full of Some Kind Of Faith..And Stories With A Meaning. I'm Really Confuzzled.

The Bible was written over 2000 years ago by people, for people, to interpret what they knew of the world back then.  The unfortunate thing that people don't see, is that things that applied in society over 2000 years ago do not apply in society today. Unfortunately the western civilisation doesn't seem to be able to understand such basic principles of society and human nature. :s

It depends on the person whether he or she want's to believe in the bible or not...

Two impressive lines: "Laugh so hard that even sorrow smiles at you" and "Live life so well that even death wants you see you alive........"
