><>...Welcome Tony... you engineer you...><>

So chill. I, personally, would rather be called 'agnostic' [good definition a few posts
earlier] than to assume I knew what God was thinking [if, again there is one -- I'm
an engineer and you're going to have to prove it to me]


Is your pointing out that you are an engineer supposed to indicate something special to me? Does it mean that only non-engineers have faith in God?

And Tony you engineer you.....I can't prove to you that there is a God...But He can, and if you are truly sincere in knowing Him, He will reveal Himself to you through His word.! It is alive.

Have you ever called upon Him with a contrite and broken spirit. Have you ever humbled yourself before the Lord....I mean I know that you are an engineer and all but Hey...don't let that stop you...for God is no respecter of persons! He will hear all who come to Him in love and sincerity.

Tony if you really want to know God...You can. if you really want to. He is already begun to reveal himself to you and you are resisting Him.
Resist no more Tony, Let Him in and know that He loves you, most of all, be silent and know He is God!

Have a good weekend Tony, God will be with you
Shalom...><>

you are incorrect,,,,,,,
many of the versions of the Bible are translations of translations.
BUT , THE NAS AND OTHERS GO BACK TO THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS AND DO NOT
FOLLOW THE PATH YOU MENTIONED.
The modern accepted translations find earliest documents to translate and or not as you indicated.
The Torah is the most accurate dcoument on the face of the earth.
It's your right to BE A non beleiver...you don't need t spread
untruth inorder to justify your beleifs.

BUT this.....IS A LIE
"The bible [new and old testament] is a translation of a translation of some second
hand stories told by some guys that may or may not have understood what was
going on at the time. "

Doesn't mean much.
but, historically and academically...your statement is more incorrect than the translations.

Tony the Engineer, not to be confused with Tony the Tiger, I believe that Christianity is the only true religion on the face of the earth because it was based upon the testimony of Jesus Christ. He proclaimed that he would be crucified for the sins of the world and be raised again on the third day. Nobody else in all history can claim such a thing, so don't you think it's time to do a little confessing of your unbelief to Him and make things right? -Chris
