You know the Bible’s Author, Jehovah God has preserved his word through centuries of virulent opposition from its enemies, both religious and secular.
So that “all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth. (1 Timothy 2:4)
It is estimated that about 80 percent of earth’s inhabitants can be reached by the use of 600 languages. The text of the entire Bible is available in 115 languages, and parts of the Scriptures can be read in a further 1,860 languages and dialects.

Yes Jehovah wants his people to read his Word,and he blesses his servants who give attention to his Word. Psalm 1:1, 2.
So I think I have all the help I need,thanks.

goodliffe // The Bible is unique. God does things differently from man. And it is not his will that human wisdom should open up his prophetic Word. //
That's interesting ! You say God doesn't want us to know .
That explains why you say we are not to know his words and apparently we are not to know the identity of those who spoke those words.
Maybe that is why there is no contemporary evidence that Jesus Christ actually existed. Apart from the bible there no Roman nor Jewish records. Nothing from Herod , Pilate nor any historians like Pliny alive during JCs supposed ministry.
In that case there is no point in reading the bible at all. Pity really, as well as strange , that God ( Should I even be saying that word ? ) doesn't want us to know.

Right in one Beso. There has been a number of controlled tests carried out in the world to see if prayer has any value . It hasn't ! Many of the tests were carried out on people who were to undergo major heart surgery. They were in three groups . One group were not told they were being monitored at all. The other two groups were told only some of them would be prayed for but not which. The medical staff were not involved at all and only the anonymous results were given to the universities conducting the research .
In all cases covering the operations, the immediate and long term results over a 5 year period were indistinguishable. Two of the hospitals in the US
who had been founded by religious orders were particularly upset by these results .

Yes it is a Pity, but it obviously is would implies having the right mental attitude when we approach the study of God’s Word.
You cannot be filled with the spirit if the world, which is greedy, lustful, materialistic, critical, captious, superficial and irreverent, idolatry, spiritism, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, dissensions, divisions, sects, envy, drunkenness, and expect to understand the Bible.
The Bible assures us that no such ones at all will understand. Only by approaching God’s Word in the spirit of humility and reverence, seriously, with open mind and a consciousness of our spiritual need can we hope to understand and appreciate it.—Dan. 12:10; Matt. 5:3, Simple.

goodlife - "... And yes,I could go on but what's the point? It will fall on your deaf ears and be instantly rejected since it does not conform to your myopic, blinkered, because that all you got is the world-view. (2 Thess. 2:9-11)..."
Very funny. Not.
Why don't you just say that you consider me to be evil and have done with it? It would be much more honest than covertly and tangentially and falsely attributing my quote to a passage in the bible that deals with "Satan's" lies and deceptions.
You've scraped the bottom of the barrel with that post Goodlife. More proof (if any were needed) that the God-fearing people of this world are more than happy to malign and insult those who disagree with their blinkered, myopic world-view.
Pathetic.

We (Atheists) actually understand it (the bible) far more than you can imagine my friend. It is precisely because we understand it that we reject its "teachings". Once you recognise the absurdities, the contradictions, the barbarity, the misogyny, the racism, the cruelty and the abject self-loathing that the bible "teaches", you'll understand why we reject it.
You too have the capability and capacity to reject its "teachings". I assume that you think the Quran is not the literal word of God as all Muslims are taught to believe? If so, you'll be sceptical of the Quaran's claim that Mohammed was the one true Prophet of God upon whom the last and final revelation was bestowed. You will be able to see and understand the exact same thing that we Atheists see: that the Quaran is a fiction - a wilful deception perpetrated by individuals who wish to pursue their own agendas, ostensibly for power and control. You and I can both see that Islam is a sham. It is a false and illegitimate belief. That is obvious to all those of us who have eyes and who haven't been indoctrinated into its cult. You can see it as clearly as you can see the sun on a cloudless day. And yet even though you can see it, you cannot cast that very same critical eye upon your own beliefs: you are wilfully blind to you own faith's failings and lies.
That is the reason why you will always be defensive about your beliefs and why you resort to insults when they are questioned (as per your previous post to me personally). But you already have the wherewithal to unshackle yourself from fear and subjugation: your intelligence. Use it. Look critically at you own religious teachings with the same intellectual rigour that you look at other religious texts.
You know you want to. Have the courage to do so.

Does anyone else find it interesting that it is those most eager to condemn others with having succumbed to the devil's deceitful treachery, those most reluctant to question the provenance of God's alleged word, who are the last to consider the possibility that it is they themselves who have latched a bit to firmly upon the poisoned end of the spear?
goodlife // Only by approaching God’s Word in the spirit of humility and reverence, seriously, with open mind and a consciousness of our spiritual need can we hope to understand and appreciate it. //
Of course. One must be humble to ensure that one's own intelligence does not come into play. Open minded so that no critical thinking would expose its hypocrisy and cause one to hesitate before blind acceptance.
The book must be revered before you start reading or it would be obviously unworthy of reverence.
One also must have a deep spiritual need that desperately need to be filled. Religion starts on developing this need very early by telling us that we are born as worthless sinners. Those who have been brought up in loving environments have their spiritual needs already fulfilled and make poor subjects to be exploited by the religious oligarchy.

Who is this God ? We cant see him , hear him , touch him, smell him, taste him , ! That's all the senses used up . In their total absence logic dictates he doesn't exist . So how can you say the bible is from him ?
If we ignore logic and try it in reverse by praying to him, there has never been any testable proof to show he has ever answered something that could have happened anyway. That is despite the billions of prayers offered daily.
I have asked you this before " just prove to me that any human being has ever re/grown a missing limb through the power of prayer " . ( just a little finger will do ) It should be so simple for an omnipotent god. It could be done in a flash.
PS I'm still waiting for you to tell me who the writers of the Gospels were !
