There you go TN putting words into my mouth I never denounce the Bible.
I denounce what the Tradition of Men has done and those before them and even Jesus have denouce periods when the scripture was tampered with.
But it is by the power of the Holy Ghost which testifies of the words that are of God.
I know I have said this repeatedly to you TN & Nic that it was the Spirit of the Lord I felt when reading the Bible that has also witness to me in the Book of Mormon.
So why do you women continue to say I dont believe in the Bible etc that is a no, no, to deliberately to continue to distort my words!
I have never use that kind of tactic on you it is non productive!
According to whom and in what way, specifically, are the Old and New Testaments a "sanitary version" and what, specifically is "omitten [sic], distorted, or deleted"? Which parts of the Old and New Testaments are in error, specifically? Which rabbi scholars of the Old Testament have found it in error? Which scholars of the Aramaic, Greek, and Hebrew languages have declared it substantively interpreted incorrectly into English?
I now further ask, are only the Old and/or New Testament Scriptures that YOU post the "correct, unsanitized, undistorted, and without error", etc., version?
Didnt you say this to nic ???
“My first teething was on the Bible and it is because of the short comings that I continues my quest because I knew from the Bible there was more for the Bible scriptures testify of it which could not be denied.
It is not the scripture that fall short but what has been omitten, distorted, or deleted if a passage says according too, and one looks for it and it it not available, I want to know for myself not someone explination!”

For me and millions of other Christians, the Bible is a complete work of God...
I have successfully completed 60 years of living using the Bible, the Word of God, as my guide ...
It is a Lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path ..Psalm 119:105 ...
I have never felt that I was short changed and/or needed more than the Bible...
It is unfortunate that you did not find what you were looking for in the Bible all those years ago...
however, if you had been looking for Jesus, the Son of God, you would have found Him, right there, in the Bible..
Keep on asking, keep on seeking, keep on knocking, and the door will be opened unto you Matthew 7:11
and while you were searching for Jesus in all the wrong places, He was reaching out to you and loving you,
Jesus shed His precious blood and died in your place, Resty, just for you...
Written in Red
VERSE 1
In letters of crimson God wrote His love
On a hillside so long, long ago
For you and for me Jesus died
And loves greatest story was told
CHORUS
I love you, I love you
Thats what Calvary said
I love you, I love you
I love you written in red
VERSE 2
Down through the ages God wrote His love
With the same hands that suffered and bleed
Giving all that He had to give
A message so easily read
CHORUS
I love you, I love you
Thats what Calvary said
I love you
Oh precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
CHORUS
I love you, I love you
Thats what Calvary said
I love you, I love you
I love you written in red
