I believe in the bibleI believe in Jesus Christ, who IS the Living Word.
If you say instead you believe in the Bible, so do people who:
- Believe in the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist (Lutherans)
- Believe in "soul sleep" and "Jesus is Satan's brother" - Seventh Day Adventists
- Believe that baptism saves (Anglicans) or doesn't (Baptists)
- Reject the Trinity (oneness Pentecostals)
- Reject the divinity of Christ (Unitarian universalists)
- Believe that getting medical treatment is wrong (Christian scientists)
- Believe that Christ did not come to save all men (hyper-Calvinism)
So "simple enough"?
I prefer to put my trust in Jesus Christ, 100% man and 100% God, one with the Father and the Holy Spirit, co-eternal.
