>The Bible is the inerrant Word of God. or not.

I have no problem with that conceptually at all. But at the practical and operating level it is not so simple. Which Bible, the KJV? If so, which VERSION of the KJV? The original which contained apocrypha? Which apocrypha? Or the later NKJV which corrected many acknowledged errors but may have added it's own? Etc., etc., etc.

>It is a revealed truth which cannot be discovered scientifically, a person either hears His voice...

Yes, but what if he reveals something different to me than to you?

Thank you for your post!!!

I believe that, if God wanted all of us to think the same way, there wouldn't have been 12 disciples with such different personalities and points of view. If we had to all be like one of them, my choice would have been John because he loved Jesus so very much!

That which all of us Christians, all Christian denominations and the disciples shared is the Holy Spirit. And He speaks to each us about what is Truth.

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. - I Corinthians 2:9-12

My two cents...
