If you believe that the Bible is literal and always correct go back and read the three things the Bible got wrong that I posted at the beginning of this debate. These three things are proof that the Bible is not the literal truth. If the Bible is not correct on every point then there are two possibilities.

1. the Bible is false
2. the Bible (especially the old testament) is not to be taken as literal truth but as parable or allegory.

Number 2 is the correct rational answer.

Right. That’s why God, literally, dictated the Torah to Moses letter-by-letter.

Sorry, my computer is archaic! I can’t respond any faster. Perhaps you could dictate a moral law then, since God’s is obsolete.

As for the difference between the koran and the scriptures, the cross (a symbol of God the Son dying for His people) and the man on a white horse with a sword(believe in what I say or die) would be a start.

If believing in the infallibility of the Scriptures, repenting and believing is wrong in the end, I won’t have lost much. However, if unbelief is wrong in the end, then all is lost.

I would suggest to you that you ought to read your own comments and then consider the notion that you really have not considered just what the concept of a “fallen Creation” actually means.

It is not possible for me to get into it here and now. Among the reasons being that I simply do not have time, and this is after all not my Forum.

I will say however that it seems to me that you pretty much have no idea about what you are posting of when it comes to what the Bible is really all about.
