What I have been shown so far from being on this group is the lack of knowledge people have around scripture and their complete disregard for it.

Also how people have put their faith and belief in their own created view of who God is based on their own human logic.

For those on this group who have many questions and are seeking Him sincerely, for those who are simply curious, and even for those who do not believe and are here to criticize have an excuse, since they do not know God.

For those of us who do know Him should know better.

Now, what I have also discovered is how much I lack in my knowledge around certain parts of scripture which I will admit, and I plan on studying in more detail.

We all, including myself, need to review how we think and view God especially if we are doing so without referring to scripture.

We will never know everything about God, we will never get it all right, but we should certainly use every source available to us to know Him better, more specifically His word.

It is dangerous to assume who God is without referring to scripture and I’m sure we can understand why that is.

If not, I’m sure there are plenty of people on this group who are strong in their understanding of God’s word, and in their faith with Him who can explain this better than myself.

I hope we all seek God with all our hearts through prayer, the reading of His word, and through the council of the church.

    If it doesn’t agree with scripture, I would have second thoughts of how much faith to put into it.

    2 Timothy 3:16-17 New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
    16 All scripture is inspired by God and is[a] useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work.

    Has there not been a post before on, say, the authenticity of the Bible as a historical document that can be fully trusted as the infallible word of God?

    Well said Jordan!

    I agree with you. Most of us interpret the bible to sooth ourselves OR we search for a version to agree with us. It’s like that on all the major topics. Salvation, baptism, works ect. If a non christian looks at this, it will just secure their disbelief. Most people are not prepared to admit if they are wrong and neither prepared to look at it for a different point of view.

    Show the love of God

    I was with you until you said “council of the church”. Which sect? What you say the church is has become a sectarian beast. I shall take no council from their wayward hierarchies. My Lord lives! I shall hear no other but Him.
