Hi Masko23. Just for arguments sake lets just say there are writings left out of the Bible. Tell me what the Bible has missed that any writing can change the TRUTHS of God's word?
In other words how can anything change what man must strive for in their heart and their walk with God entering into a relationship with Jesus Christ?
Just a few basic examples of Facts that no other writing can change ..........
Not one of us whether believer in Christ or not will escape this truth........
9Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:9-11 (New International Version)
There is only one way to the Father through Jesus Christ.
6Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 14:6 (New International Version)
You must repent of your sins meaning turning from your old life becoming a NEW CREATION IN CHRIST!
If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. —2 Corinthians 5:17
Be CHRISTLIKE! Because if you aren't you are on the path to DESTRUCTION...............
"Enter through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction , and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
-Matthew 7:13-14
God's word has many many other things we can learn from in the Bible but these few basic truths above listed can not be disputed in any other writing as they are from God's word.
Read this..............
There’s something wrong with the world.........
You can feel it.
It’s like a splinter in the back of your mind.
It drives you mad.
You keep searching for it but you can’t find it. You
can’t put your fingers on it.
Your logic tells you it doesn't exist but in your heart and in your soul, you know better.
This world is hiding something. It’s something awesome, supremely powerful and beautiful.
Good morning masko....Yes, the Bible tells me that the Bible is the one and only spoken word of God. Other men and women that are born again believers tell me that the Bible is the one and only spoken word of God. But most of all...God thru the Holy Spirit tells me that the Bible is the one and only spoken word of God.
When a person looks to Jesus and ask forgiveness of their sins...when that person has a change of heart and repents. The Holy Spirit of God comes to live in them. I am a born again believer. I have the Holy Spirit living in me....the very spirit of God lives in me. I have a personal relationship with Jesus....just as i have a personal relationship with men and women here on earth. The difference is that Jesus is God..my Lord and Savior....and of course men and women are just humans.
When the very spirit of God lives in a person...you feel his presense....you talk to him all the time...and in his own way...he speaks back to you....Now...im not talking in a audible voice...or the ole writing on the wall....But God...Jesus...thru the Holy Spirit speaks to a person....as our helper...and guides and directs us each and every day! And if a person is not born again...they are not going to know that and they are not going to understand that.
Its like a humanly love to use as an example. You have people that you love and that love you...Right? You know what that special feeling is when you are around them...or even when you think of them....its REAL....you feel it...its an emotion...a feeling...its LOVE. Same thing with a personal relationship with Jesus. We cant see him...we never have...but his very spirit lives in us so we feel and hear his presence.
John 20:29 (New International Version) 29Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
Now..i dont say this to be a smart hind end...But...Your questions on this are repeating themselves...i think i have answered about as throughly as possible about the Bible being Gods word and how i know and believe.....FAITH
Then..as far as your statement....
outside what you've been told by the bible, which was written and put together by men?
The ole Bible was written by men line....guess what...everything on planet earth has been written by men and women...and im guessing there is plenty out there that you have read and been told by men and women...that you have no proof other than what they have told you...and most EVERYTHING in your life that you have been taught you believe because some man or woman told you it was true....so please...lets dont use that old sorry statement again. The difference is this....Just like in the words i wrote above. The spirit of God lived in the men that wrote the Bible....God spoke to them...in a way im guessing not unlike how he speaks to me...and they wrote it down.
Now...you had ask me before to provide you with some text other than the Bible that makes statements concerning the spoken word of God...i offered you the following words written by John MacArthur that talks about the Bible pretty in depth.
Did you take the time to even read it...and if so...lets hear your thoughts...isnt that the reason you wanted me to show you something so you could comment more completely?
