Apologies to BrandtMichaels! The system is sluggish and keeps stalling. I didn’t realize my post went through three times. RM please remove the duplicates. Thank you.
Thanks Kosta - unfortunately the rm removed all 3 of your post plus mine (#560).
In hindsight, when I said horse-h—key I should have added that it was mimicry for Col. Potter from the MASH TV show.
Also the important thing lost from #560 is that you should truly read God’s Word w/ utmost respect and awe.
Also there are many former skeptics who have often sought to debunk the Bible and in their research have become true believers ~ saints. One of the best and most recent is Lee Strobel who was an investigative reporter for the Chicago Tribune iirc. His wife found faith and salvation in Christ which led him on a long journey of research and finally acceptance of Jesus as his lord and saviour.
His 1st 3 books (also available recorded and short enough to listen to on your commute) are:
‘The Case for Christ’
‘The Case for Faith’
‘The Case for Creation’
These are well-researched w/ many ‘expert’ interviews. I’d also recommend ‘More Than A Carpenter’ by Josh McDowell (iirc that’s the author).
I recommend reading the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, & John as well as the above for anyone questioning the authority of the Bible and who Jesus truly was/is.
