RE: What is the Bible and Can We Burn It?

in #bible8 years ago

Then why use it? And another thing what we know as the new testament was a recopilation of a lot of manuscripts which were decided on by at least three synods of the church centuries after they were written, a church which by this time and according to protestants was already corrupted by satan, so I think we are in trouble if we think about this. Remember many manuscripts were left out solely on the decisipns of fallible human beings, so even if we are dealing with divine words, how can we be sure what we have now is what God wanted us to have? By believing in corrupt clerics?

Hey, great points!
In one aspect, we don't need it. The first church did not have a Bible until 150 years after the death of Jesus. That was also the largest time at church growth. They truly live by the Spirit. Even after the Bible was put together, most people were illiterate anyway…
This is a quick reply more later…
