There are 100's of verses that contradict everything that even suggests that God knows everything as well.
Statements like this make me shake my head. You call people lazy for not researching things to disprove the Bible, but it sounds like you don't have much knowledge of what the Bible actually says or theology.
Smh. Believe what you want. You make statements with nothing to stand on, yet when I give you scripture, interpretation and translation you act like you can't read or comprehend
With not much understanding.
The problem is not with my comprehension, the problem is with your not being able to prove that what you state is indeed factual.
Yup just as I thought. Even if you have read the Bible front to back you have little understanding of it.There is actually no such thing as Christian Gnosticism, because true Christianity and Gnosticism are mutually exclusive systems of belief. The principles of Gnosticism contradict what it means to be a Christian. Therefore, while some forms of Gnosticism may claim to be Christian, they are in fact decidedly non-Christian.
. He still calls God and the Bible into question and catches in his web those who are either naïve and scripturally uninformed or who are seeking some personal revelation to make them feel special, unique, and superior to others. Let us follow the Apostle Paul who said to “test everything. Hold on to the good” (1 Thessalonians 5:21), and this we do by comparing everything to the Word of God, the only Truth.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. 9) For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Yes, God knows what we are gonna do, but he doesn't swoop in and change our actions for us or predetermined our actions. Plus you said it's not logical concerning a supreme being. He is God. He is way beyond human logic and fully understandings
How are you going to say that about a supreme being, then try and substantiate it by quoting what a MAN has written on the subject?Many questions will remain un-answered simply because we are discussing a supreme being.
We are humans, HIS creation. He's omnipotent, omniscient and omnipotent. Theres no way we will know and understand everything God has said and done.
Isaiah 55:8-9
Are you a Woman? I ask because I'd like to know your feelings on women's rights, and how the bible deals with such matters.
Yup just as I thought. Even if you have read the Bible front to back you have little understanding of it.There is actually no such thing as Christian Gnosticism, because true Christianity and Gnosticism are mutually exclusive systems of belief. The principles of Gnosticism contradict what it means to be a Christian. Therefore, while some forms of Gnosticism may claim to be Christian, they are in fact decidedly non-Christian.
Gnosticism was perhaps the most dangerous heresy that threatened the early church during the first three centuries. Influenced by such philosophers as Plato, Gnosticism is based on two false premises. First, it espouses a dualism regarding spirit and matter. Gnostics assert that matter is inherently evil and spirit is good. As a result of this presupposition, Gnostics believe anything done in the body, even the grossest sin, has no meaning because real life exists in the spirit realm only.
Second, Gnostics claim to possess an elevated knowledge, a “higher truth” known only to a certain few. Gnosticism comes from the Greek word gnosis which means “to know.” Gnostics claim to possess a higher knowledge, not from the Bible, but acquired on some mystical higher plain of existence. Gnostics see themselves as a privileged class elevated above everybody else by their higher, deeper knowledge of God.
To discredit the idea of any compatibility between Christianity and Gnosticism, one has only to compare their teachings on the main doctrines of the faith. On the matter of salvation, Gnosticism teaches that salvation is gained through the acquisition of divine knowledge which frees one from the illusions of darkness. Although they claim to follow Jesus Christ and His original teachings, Gnostics contradict Him at every turn. Jesus said nothing about salvation through knowledge, but by faith in Him as Savior from sin. “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9). Furthermore, the salvation Christ offers is free and available to everyone (John 3:16), not just a select few who have acquired a special revelation.
Christianity asserts that there is one source of Truth and that is the Bible, the inspired, inerrant Word of the living God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice (John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Hebrews 4:12). It is God’s written revelation to mankind and is never superseded by man’s thoughts, ideas, writings, or visions. The Gnostics, on the other hand, use a variety of early heretical writings known as the Gnostic gospels, a collection of forgeries claiming to be “lost books of the Bible.” Thankfully, the early church fathers were nearly unanimous in recognizing these Gnostic scrolls as fraudulent forgeries that espouse false doctrines about Jesus Christ, salvation, God, and every other crucial Christian truth. There are countless contradictions between the Gnostic “gospels” and the Bible. Even when the so-called Christian Gnostics quote from the Bible, they rewrite verses and parts of verses to harmonize with their philosophy, a practice that is strictly forbidden and warned against by Scripture (Deuteronomy 4:2; 12:32; Proverbs 30:6; Revelation 22:18-19).
The Person of Jesus Christ is another area where Christianity and Gnosticism drastically differ. The Gnostics believe that Jesus’ physical body was not real, but only “seemed” to be physical, and that His spirit descended upon Him at His baptism, but left Him just before His crucifixion. Such views destroy not only the true humanity of Jesus, but also the atonement, for Jesus must not only have been truly God, but also the truly human (and physically real) man who actually suffered and died upon the cross in order to be the acceptable substitutionary sacrifice for sin (Hebrews 2:14-17). The biblical view of Jesus affirms His complete humanity as well as His full deity.
Gnosticism is based on a mystical, intuitive, subjective, inward, emotional approach to truth which is not new at all. It is very old, going back in some form to the Garden of Eden, where Satan questioned God and the words He spoke and convinced Adam and Eve to reject them and accept a lie. He does the same thing today as he “prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:
Because u kinda went off on a tangent here I'll just say that you're statements are partially correct however you're viewpoint is going to continue to reference the bible regardless of what I say as I expected but hey to each his own man. I'm not trying to change what u believe in.
I'm a man. What do you to specifically want to know on women's rights? And my view is determined on what the Bible says
No worries, you are not a woman, therefore your thoughts, especially after what you've just wrote, are of no concern to me.
Women's rights is so vague. Try me
No thanks, but I'd love to read your take on why God in the bible thought the sun revolved around the earth.
Smh. No man is smarter than God. Can't wait to see where this is going?
So god in the bible didn't know how his own creation actually worked?
Example?
Joshua 10:12-13
