Why I think my religion is the right one.

Read some of his other posts. I think you'll see his paranoid/delusional side come out a bit more

 

Lorien's always been a little slow with reading comprehension

 

Your newfound obsession with insulting me in every thread I post in was flattering at first, but now you're just getting annoying.

 

Have you considered making better posts? Perhaps even thinking before you post?

I know, I know, the idea seems wild and crazy, but you might just get used to it.

 

*backs out of personal argument between people I don't know...*

 

I just showed the stats that a large amount of people want the Bible over the will of the people when it comes to US law. If you have a problem with the stats, or the conclusion then make a point. Insulting me without backing it up isn't adding anything but clutter.

 

Guys, com'n, lets keep it on a fair playing field and not dive into personal attacks here.

 

it was a happy little thread into yo reared his ugly head.

 

I leave this thread for 1 hour and it goes this far? Wow, anyways, I believe that a true christian is well-defined in the bible. I don't believe in adding any books, doctrines, or anything that contridicts with the Torah and New testament, both of which are the core of the christian / Messianic truth.

 

A true Christian perhaps, but that is different from saying that to be a true Christian is right.

 

Ah, but that set of books was only first canonized at the Council of Trent in the 1500's.

For most of the history of Christianity, there were many more books in the bible.

Plus, of course, even today there are more books in the Catholic Bible than in the Protestant Bible.

It all comes down to which set of books you prefer. It's like an ala carte menu.

 

Can you imagine if Yo-yo and lorien were Generals in opposing countries and they were using missiles instead of words? There would not be much left of each other's country.

 

i'd win, yo doesnt believe in pre-emption

 

The books not included were extra information, irrevelant, lacking purpose. Thats why they were not included. The most important books are there.
They did not contridict, nor bring any negative consequences, they merely were not important. You can always research them all up.

 

Also, and the most important is they were not chosen or inspired by God.

 

Ah, but not every Christian agrees on which books should be left in and which books should be taken out.

For example, the Catholic Bible and the Protestant Bible.

Which is the real Christian Bible?

 

One that is made up of "little books" that any of them do not conflict with what the Bible really teaches.

 

hilarious. Just plain hilarious!!!

 

That's not entirely true. The 'extra' books in the Catholic Bible are apocryphal, meaning "false, spurious, bad, or heretical."

There are also commonly used Bibles that contain scriptures that have been added to support Trinitarian doctrine.

There are also many paraphrased or adapted Bibles, which preserve neither literal meaning nor the consistency of the original manuscripts.

Also, the majority of Bibles have removed over 7000 occurrences of the Tetragrammaton, also a case of adulterating the text.

So, in short, no human can claim to have the 'right' Christian Bible. We can only make an effort to the adhere as closely, literally and consistently to original manuscripts, trying in earnest to preserve the word of God

 

How do you claim christianity to be historically correct, Its really funny,
