kinda think God wrote the Bible. By the way, what did you read in it this past week?

kinda think that God didn't write anything....He did His writing through the efforts of man (excluding the ten commandments and the stone placques given to Moses of course). He used the Catholic Church as His medium of communication to mankind...everyone knows that. I read in the bible this week the reading from the book of Ezekiel 34:1-12, 15-17 which I read at Mass. I also read the Gospel from Matthew25:31-46 where God holds us responsible for our WORKS wherein He sayy that if you served My needs when I was hungry, unclothed, imprisoned,thirsty etc you cared for Me thus you are saved, however those who ignored My needs and thus the needs of other people were CONDEMNED, just as St James pointed out when he mentioned the importance of our works as well as our faith.....faith without works....not so good!!!

1 Corinthians 3:11-15 New International Version (NIV)

11 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13 their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. 14 If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. 15 If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames.

If you’re comfortable with your works then God Bless You.
