Lorne,
I am sorry if you have misunderstood my posts, or I have not communicated clearly. I will explain to you a little more about myself.
I was born Jewish, but I believe in Christ. That makes me a Jewish Christian. My Jewishishness is by blood (genetics). The Christianity is by belief. My place of worship is non-denominational (includes different people from different religions). But we follow NO religion.
No religion is totally Christian, although many claim to be. Some have parts of Christianity included within them, but none are totally Christian. In my opinion, as I stated earlier, religion is primarily a man made form of controlling masses and basically a business. I do not believe in any religion to be totally good, but I definitely believe in one faith to be good, and that is Christianity. To be a Christian, no religion is necessary!
I know the Bible to be the inerrant word of God. I know the Quran is not the word of God, for many reasons, including blantant errors within it. And just by its characteristics and teachings, it is easy to discern this.
Now to address your question:
You said, "In past posts you indicated that you did not agree that any writings of man were the word of God."
When did I say that? I said the Islamic scripture is not from God. I never made any such claim about the Bible. The Bible is the inerrant word of God. I totally believe in it!
So I hope that clears things up for you. I have re-read the posts you have referenced that I posted, and they are 100% true and accurate, and should be consistent with this post I am posting to you.
Please let me know if this clears it up for you. Otherwise I will be happy to explain further.....
God Bless, IGIT |
