Go and learn the history of how the Holy Scriptures came to be assembled in the form we now have them, then get back to me. Until you are conversant with the actual facts about the canon of Scripture, not theories spun centuries after its collection by folks eager to justify Luther's shortening of the canon, we will perpetually talk past each other.
Well .. your arrogant sanctamonious comments do not even deserve to be considered!
I guess we'll find out how important it is to know how God's Word was assembled. The Bible is not a bunch of Holy writing .. it's GOD speaking to me.
We're talking past each other because you are NOT BORN AGAIN and therefore you cannot interpret the Word. Jesus warned us through Paul by saying, "it is spiritually discerned" - not studied like any other book - and those who are not spiritually alive unto God cannot discern the Bible's teachings.
You are more interested in the LAW of the Bible - while I'm more interested in God's message to me in the Bible. And .. while Jesus did say "no man knows the day and the hour" - He also said the "church" will know the times and the seasons of His return.
