He could, and if he ever presented a Bible, I'm sure it would be. But men put the Bible together, of the writings of men, and they disagreed over its contents - and still do. The different strains of Orthodoxy, Catholicism and Protestantism have different collections of books in their Bibles. And there are three primary, differing, strains of ancient manuscripts, and no two of them are the same.

And there was no Bible at all until the religion was legalized circa 325 AD. So the very first Bibles date from around 350, a long, long time after Jesus.

God didn't make the Bible, men did. And they still don't agree as to its contents. There are multiple Bibles. based on multiple different manuscript traditions.

And of course Muslims say exactly the same thing about the Koran...and they'll kill you for saying about the Koran what I just said about the Bible.

Vic: He could, and if he ever presented a Bible, I'm sure it would be. But men put the Bible together, of the writings of men

God: All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness

Vic: And there was no Bible at all until the religion was legalized circa 325 AD

Wrong...the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) was complete by the time of Christ. The NT Bible (in the form of letters) was written, circulated, and recognized as the Word of God long before Athanasius merely compiled the canonized letters.

In his Easter letter of 367, Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, gave a list of the books that would become the twenty-seven-book NT canon, and he used the word "canonized"

Vic: There are multiple Bibles.

Wrong. There many translations of the original manuscripts, which are derived from the original autographs (which no longer exist).

You really don't know much about Christianity, do you Vic?

All I see is a rebellious heathen raging about this or that...finding any excuse to deny God.

Lucifer in the Garden to Eve: "Did God really say that?"

Vic on the forum to anyone dumb enough to listen: "Did God really say that?"

You speak just like your father the devil. You don't wish to be with God in eternity, so you will go to be with the one you choose. Next stop for you...the Lake of Fire. You can change your heart and mind before it's too late but I doubt you will. You've hardened your heart as in the rebellion

Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

Stupid really. Choosing to miss out on heaven.

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

You call the Bible God? The Bible is your God. God is God. Men created the Bible. Obviously.

Which Bible is God? They are all different you know. The Catholic Bible differs from the Orthodox Bible. The Orthodox Bibles differ from one another. The Protestant Bibles differ from the Catholics and the Orthodox, and from each other, depending on which manuscript source they use as their base.

So, multiple Gods? Or the Truth: the Bible is not God. God is God.

There's no denial of God in anything I write.

In fact, I focus very explicitly upon the words of Christ.

This clearly annoys you, probably because you think you have some sort of monopoly over God. If you don't think that, you sure talk that way.

Anyway, enough of this.

I'm going back to work, and later in the day I will continue by slow plod through the Gospels and Revelation (the only places in the Bible where Jesus himself speaks, other than a single line of Paul regarding the eucharist), picking out the words of Jesus and laying them back to back to make a point.

The point I am making is to someone else, but you, of course, are free to look at the evidence yourself.

The "words of Christ" you "focus on"...are they not found in the Bible?

Didn't man merely create the words of Christ too?

You constantly contradict yourself.

Why don't you just admit it...you do not believe in the God of the Bible.

You believe in your interpretation of God, who is someone/something you can control.

Men did create the Bible, and every other written thing. Words do not hang on the air. If we know them and did not hear them ourselves, it is only because men recorded them. The only way to record them before the latter half of the 19th Century was to write them down.

So, the only way to know what Christ said is to read it in a book men wrote? Are the quotes accurate? Made up? A bit of both? There is no way to tell that. We have wag at those men at that time recorded, and we use that as the basis to analyze what Christ, or Thomas Acquinas, or Shakespeare, or Caesar said.

There is nothing remotely contradictory in anything I have said on this matter. You need to go look up “contradictory” and read the definition again.

I can read the Koran too, and see what Allah is said to have said, and analyze that. Do I think that is actually the will of God? Not mostly, no. A stopped clock is right twice a day.

When it comes to Jesus, I have very great respect for what he said, in part because I agree with it. I think he was the son of God, somehow, but that assertion is just a bald one to me. So what? Even if he was, that’s useless information unless we know what he SAID. That is what we can evaluate. When I evaluate what Jesus said, it is quite remarkable. Did Jesus say some of that? Almost certainly yes. Did he say every word of it? I don’t know. But nothing about what he says seems very contradictory to me, and it’s excellent, so I am willing to listen to HIM and think that if by listening to anybody I can act in accordance with the will of God, that this is it. Now, I note clear contradictions between Jesus and Paul, Jesus and James, and Jesus and John, so I have to make a choice. My choice is to come down on the side of Jesus 100% of the time. You will say they don’t conflict. I see how they do, and side with Jesus. And that’s all there is to be said here.

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1cor2.12-14

You are a "natural" man, that is, without the indwelling Holy Spirit. You cannot understand what God is saying in His Word...it is foolishness to you...so you toss out the parts that don't make sense.

#43. To: A K A Stone (#41) (Edited)

I am saying that the words of Jesus stand supreme, because he was the Son of God, and he said to follow him. He did not say to follow the Bible, and he did not leave a Bible. That didn’t come to be until the 300s. There were no Christian Scripture when Paul wrote, for example. There were none until decades after Jesus. What Jesus said and did is recorded in the Scriptures, yes. And what he said is supreme over everything else for, as the Scriptures tell you, HE was the begotten son of God, HE was the divine one, HE knew what was what. So therefore, I focus on him. The Scripture say to stone the woman found in adultery, but HE said “Let him among you who is without sin cast the first stone.” The Scriptures say “eat no pork nor shellfish”, but HE said that nothing that goes into a man’s mouth makes him unclean, only that which come out of it. The Scripture says to kill the sabbath breaker who so much as gathers firewood, but HE said that the sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath; and that it is right to heal on the sabbath, to do good.. The Scripture (James) says that if you break one law, you’ve broken them all, but Jesus always speaks of greater and lesser sins. The Bible had at least 95 authors, each with a different viewpoint in a different age. But Jesus was one man, recorded in five different texts, largely consistent between them. What Jesus says is very distinctive, and often different from what other people in the Bible said. And Jesus was very self-consciously the son of God, and said so. The Bible can take you myriad ways, but Jesus takes you in a very distintive direction. Example: Paul says to not let women teach, but Jesus had the woman at the well teach her whole people. Where other parts of the Bible go in different directions, you correct all of that to Jesus. So, within the Bible itself, Jesus is above the rest of it. And that means that no, you can’t burn witches, even though another part of the Bible orders you to.

Yeah. But obviously the conversation continued.

I have decided that all I can do to state my faith is what I have promised to Stone: systematically go through Jesus, and lay end-to-end the things HE said, because HE is the son of God.

Everything else ends up being "Jesus PLUS", and in my experience, everything that's "Jesus PLUS" ends up being Minus Jesus. And the only person in that whole Biblical milieu I'm willing to listen to is Jesus. The trouble with Moses, Ezra, etc., is that they're pronouncing death and exclusion. And the trouble with Paul, James and John is that what they say contradicts Jesus, and always, inevitably, in a way that I disagree with. I'm aligned with Jesus, and when somebody says something different from Jesus, that difference is invariably worse, in my experience. So I just stick with him.

This makes sense, given that he's God.

But many people have replaced Jesus with the Bible, making the Bible God.

Jesus did not say to do that. He said "Follow ME", and he didn't leave a Bible.

So, when I see Jesus excoriating the Jews time and again for their traditions that completely close off what Jesus was saying, I see Christians and their Bible doing exactly the same thing. And I am unimpressed with this. I am also unimpressed with how mean and carping they are about it.

the Bible ain't God. God is God. Now, what God said is IN the Bible, in the mouth of Jesus. Follow THAT. But the Bible ALSO contains things out of other people's mouths, that contradict Jesus.

Don't follow that.

This makes some people accuse me of being a demon.

I would say that they are tradition-mongering Pharisees, and the Bible is their tradition.

Obviously we are never going to see eye to eye, just as most of the Jews never saw eye to eye with Jesus (and the ones who did, stopped being Jews in time and became Christians). But the Christians, in later ages, erected their OWN traditions that replace Jesus, and did various terrible things like murdering people.

I have no patience for any of that.

And I have only limited patience for the cheerleaders of that, which is precisely what Christian tradition-mongers are.

Just shut up and follow Christ, and all will be well. Is that so hard? Why do people work so hard to follow everybody BUT Christ? The answer is that Christ demands things of people they don't want to do, while the others present a way of thinking and being that is easier, lets them feel holy, without actually DOING what Jesus said to do.

It's "Christian", but it ain't following Jesus.

I stick with Jesus, and I see the tempests of anger that raises.

And I provoke them - just like he did.

But I need to get through the Scriptures and present Jesus, Just Jesus. And let the storm wail away after that - I won't care!

V13

13 is the number of rebellion in the Bible.

"Biblically, the number 13 is also believed to be associated with lawlessness and rebellion. This symbolism associated with this number dates as far back as the Book of Genesis, where it’s implied in Genesis 10:9 that Nimrod, a mighty hunter, was before God. This is interpreted as Nimrod trying to take up the place of God, even though he belonged to the 13th generation in the line of Ham".

"...Judas Iscariot, the 13th guest to make an appearance during Jesus Christ’s Last Supper. Judas is also the one who betrayed Jesus Christ..."

You sound like Jesus. But, what does your Church teach? See? You are responsible for what YOU believe, not for what your “leaders” tell you to believe. I’m not a fan of pedophilia, or coverups, or burning heretics and witches, or saints, or torturing political opponents, or enforced priestly celibacy. The sins of the Church over the centuries are that: sins - I don’t agree with any of it, and I don’t defend any of it. In truth, I use the fact of all of it to attack the absurd notion of general infallibility. Barrow, specific infallibility is essentially limited to Mary. And I pay attention to Jesus, not Mary. I don’t have a problem with Mary - I think that maternal devotion and placing a woman very high is not a bad thing, but Mary is not the focus of my faith, Jesus is. But as far as being a “rebel”, because I happen to be the 13th Vicomte de Voreiz, and some guy is superstitious about the number 13? I’m the opposite of a rebel. I feel no need to “take a stand” in any meaningful way other than stating my disagreement. I feel no need to rebel against the Church and leave it. Jesus did not rebel against Temple Judaism or tell his people to leave it. He told them, instead, to listen to the good, not follow the bad, but follow him, his teachings instead. He did not require that individuals force the institutions to align with their beliefs - an impossible task. He merely demanded that they follow him, and if you followed him, he did care if you were a Jew or not. So, even though the Jews as an institution taught and did things Jesus said were unnecessary and even negative traditions, he didn’t command abandonment of the religion. Rather, he said - effectively - that if you follow him, the cracked traditions of the institutions don’t matter. I’m no rebel. I remain in the Catholic Church because I was born and raised that way and like the people. But I am forthright in telling you - and the priest for that matter (I am in our men’s group and we talk about Jesus every Saturday, and the priest is with us) - what I think is cracked, wrong and irrelevant. So, to call me a rebel is really off the mark. But to ascribe to me beliefs I don’t have because I’m a Catholic? Jesus was a Jew - who obviously ignored all sorts of Jewish traditions, and criticized them, but made no grand political statement of “leaving Judaism” either. Rather, he simply ignored the things that were not true, demonstrating to me what to do. This was to the great consternation of many priests, scribes and faithful Pharisees of his time. He mocked them, he didn’t leave the faith. I don’t mock people who adore the Eucharist or devote oceans of time to Mary. I just don’t do either, staying focused on what Jesus said. This doesn’t annoy most Catholics (some in the men’s group really don’t like me, but the priest loves me because of my pure and faithful citation of Jesus.). Protestants go after me citing traditions of the Church I ignore. But what I actually believe - well - that I express by citing Jesus, 100%. If someone wants to get pissed at me for THAT…we’ll…go right ahead, Pharisee!

Do recall, though, that Jews were polygamous. Jesus did not prohibit the Jewish tradition of multiple wives. He prohibited divorce.

The tradition of monogamy isn’t Jewish (or Muslim, which follows the Jewish/middle eastern tradition). There are polygamous Jews today. The Jewish rabbinical rule is that whatever the tradition of the country is, that’s the local Jewish practice. Yemenite Jews in Israel have multiple wives. Jesus never said anything about THAT. Divorce was his no no.

Monogamous marriage is a Roman tradition, deriving from their jealous goddess Hera, goddess of marriage. As the Church Romanized, the custom of the Romans was adopted in the Church, without much thought, but it comes from Juno, not Jesus. Greeks and Gauls practiced polygamy. Romans and Germans did not. They DID have girlfriends, mistresses and prostitutes, but not multiple wives. It’s a Western thing, not a Jesus thing.

The Russians are invading the Ukraine. We aren’t. We are helping the Ukrainians kill the people invading their country.
