I have taught and studied the Bible all of my life. I know today it is misread by the theologians of all religions as it is not physical history. The authors of the Bible especially the prophets, the authors of the Gosdpels and the apostles wrote in alegory explaining God's teachings found in analogies and metaphors embodied in creation. Read the dialogue with these authors in this website and you will understand the truth of this. It will show you how to truly study the Bible in the light of God's Word.
If you really want to know how to study the Bible go to %26lt;christianitybesieged.com%26gt;?
Despite your interesting dialogue with the prophets, the site's premise isn't a particularly new insight. St. Ambrose, 1700 years ago, proposed much the same idea of the Bible as true, but via parable and enculturation.
As to weemaryanne's diatribe, with respect, she appears to know a fair bit less than it seems she thinks she does. There is little difference between such bibles as the Textus Recepticus (close to the era she cites) and the bible as we know it today, other than a one book issue of canon.
Reply:Also try all about God.com It is great and a good study site.
Reply:Thanks for your advice; it sounds really kool. I'll check it out. :0)
Remember, you're special and GOD LOVES YOU!!!
Reply:Which bible? there's HOW MANY versions in circulation right now? And didn't a new gospel turn up recently, in which Judas may not have been the villain after all? How do you godidiots keep up, that's what I wonder.
The Bible of 400 CE and the Bible of today differ by dozens of chapters and thousands of parts. So how do you decide , and who decides, which version is the real word of god? And having decided, how do you plan to make sure nobody reads the unauthorized versions? And if new stories turn up in future, how do you plan to deal with them?
As for your recommended website, I'll pass, thanks. No religion with as many followers, as much money, and as much political power as christianity has any right to moan about being "besieged." Your church doesn't even pay taxes, for f**ks sake!
