but they are also the words of men who have heard —and in the case of the disciples—seen the Word, the very image of God not in the form of letters on a page but in the form of a man like us in all things but sin. To spread the Good News, he founded a community who largely through preaching and by common worship - continues the mission it began nearly two thoiusdand years ago.

Not too familiar with God's Word, are you? What you are saying is so not true. And lots of Scripture to show what you have been taught is not true.

Here's just one..."But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the COUNSELOR will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you." Jesus leaves, the Holy Spirit comes. He would not leave us to man, He would not leave us as orphans. Paul never met Jesus but was instructed through the Holy Spirit and almost 2/3 of the NT was written by Paul.

You can't be serious. Many didn't know or understand who He was! You actually think God will leave His Truth for man to pass down? LOL! YOU DON'T KNOW HIM! And you have no idea the power of the Word. They are Holy Spirit inspired. They are NOT just some letters on a page. Tell me if you know anything more powerful than this...

Heb 4:12 "For the Word of God is LIVING and ACTIVE. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it PENETRATES even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it JUDGES the thoughts and attitudes of the heart".

Obviously, you've never had the 'experience' reading His Word if you call them letters on a page. So much for the 'leaving His Word with man to pass down'! Never happen - HE knew what was in man.
