That is where faith comes in. You have to believe that the Bible was not written by man but is divinely inspired. In other words, while men scribed it, God used them as vessels simply to record. There is a much longer and deeper argument to defend why the Bible is unique to other texts.
But again, you either believe or you don't. Not surprised I got a ton of down-votes. The world will reject this message; but that doesn't diminish in any way our commission to spread the good news to others so they may be saved. 1st Gal 1:10. In the end, we can't be concerned about what others may think about us; but continue to fight the good fight and spread the news.
Again, I 100% believe with my heart that the Bible is the only source of truth as scripture is God breathed truth; whether people choose to accept or deny this is between themselves and the Lord.
"Everyone has different truths"
Nope. They may have their perspective, but that is different.
There is only one truth.
Exactly this.
And right there is the deception: Equating perspective and perception with the truth itself.
FWIW, from a Christian or spiritual perspective, this is Lucifer's assertion. "My truth" is as important or real as yours, God."
But whether one believes in the Creator or doesn't, the premise that there is only one truth is foundational to goodness.
Amen, this is exactly why we are where we are. There is only one source of truth, the Bible. Well said Fren.
I'm not sure if that's accurate. If I enter 1 + 1 iny calculator, I accept tells the truth when it says 2.
When I buy tickets to Orlando, I believe the airline receipt is truthful and it will not send me to Boston.
Before the Bible can be declared the only truth, you must first trust the men who declared what is the Word of God to be truth tellers.
Why 27 books of the New Testament and not 26 or 28?
The Bible is truth, but 90% Christians have a false understanding of what the Bible means in many areas unfortunately.
