  • Hello to You All;

    I feel I have a strong faith in God, His Son - Jesus, n the Holy Ghost/Spirit n really love my faith in them...
    I believe that the Bible was once greatly inspired by God, Jesus n the Holy Ghost/Spirit but I believe that today's Bible has gone though too many translation till it got to be available in modern English with translation some times words n sentences can be changed slightly because the translator could use the same wording a common error in translating n also grammar can also be a factor (yeah grammar police worry about online grammar errors it pales to errors in the old worlds) in translations so I believe current bibles can't be 100% prefect let a lone it was translated by Men/Humans (Men) who where imperfect n had to deal Men being the top dog n didn't want to changed that, heck the Catholic's are slowly changing that in their order now n how long only were men allowed to be priest??? Then there is more books in a Catholic Bible then in the King James version, Why??? I thinking to lessened some things King James(or the men that worked on the King James version) n the there is a Geek Bible that has even more books why, why don't we have a complete works of Bible books because men!!!
    So, I believe in the Bible but with a grain of salt because I know men had hand in how it is now...

    I also know that Adam ate from the tree of knowledge so I can not ignore facts about what men have done to the Bible n know there are errors n missing parts to the Bible but believe it is good source to the stories, history n laws from past people/leaders n of course of God, Jesus n Holy Ghost/Spirit but know it isn't a good example is there are sooooo many different version of the King James Bible sample NIV, ASV, NLT, GoodBook n so on which is more correct???

    So I read NIV version with a grain of salt because I believe it is imperfect n unless I learn ancient Arabic or ancient Hebrew I can't know how far off current version are but...
    what I use is better than nothing!!!
     
    I also feel that need to find our own path in faith n not follow a leader blindly, we should know the history (as truthful as we can find it n not from 1 source but from many) of the Bible, history of man, n compare life from the simple lives in the past to the current lives n watch how life grows from now to the future... Knowing that we have brains we need to use them... I am critical of the King James Bible but it was a great thing for us because it allowed us to learn most of the scriptures (that we had access to) on our own n chose our path in our faith... 
    Ok my mind n inspiration on writing this have stopped so I will finish up by saying...
    These are just my opinions...
