Only the bible describes the state of the world as we head into the End Times.
Only the bible has verifiable prophecies that can be tested for truth.
Is it not time to take the bible seriously?

the letter in the Times today said: Bible Studies Dear Sir, Keith Elliott writes about the debate over the exclusive authority of the New Testament (credo letters). Christians believe that canonical scripture was established under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. That some books entered the canon 'by the skin of their teeth' is immaterial....

Theland, you led people here to believe you were dying. You weren’t.
Theland, in June you told us that you 'could go tonight or linger for a year or two' - quite a sad, shocking post for many ABers.
Theland - // An imminent death sentence?
No, I had a four hospitalisations this year, one of which was as close as ever to death. Yes the NHS saved my life.
Sorry to disappoint you. //

That's low, even for you.

Your halo is slipping, your underlying nastiness is seeping through again.
Naomi 24 21:14 sun 18 July 2021 If you’re looking for a religious revolution look to Paul - a man who never met Jesus and never heard him speak - because he was the man .who bent the rules and founded Christianity.

I think you're going to have to rephrase what you have put here because this statement is not quite true.

American.S. V Acts 9 .3 And as he journeyed, it came to pass that he drew nigh unto Damascus: and suddenly there shone round about him a light out of heaven: 4 and he fell upon the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest:
He uses the term why are you persecuting me so therefore he must have be around in Jerusalem when Jesus was preaching in the synagogues or on the Mount of Olives ??
Better call, erm, Paul. I'm so confused!

/// Saul was a Roman citizen who was born in Tarsus. He was a Pharisee who was an expert in Jewish Law, and he hated Christians. He dragged Christian men and women out of their houses and threw them into jail. He even stood by and watched as an angry mob stoned the disciple Stephen to death . Saul and Paul, were given in childhood to the person who later became the apostle Paul.- While Saul was on his way to Damascus, Jesus confronted him, and Saul was blinded by a miraculous light. Then Jesus sent Saul on to Damascus to wait for further contact..​—Acts 9:3-22.{ I hope this helps}
Mibs, very good. He’d sort it!

Locusts, Saul/Paul is thought to have suffered from epilepsy. His ‘encounter’ with Jesus came long after the crucifixion. In other words it wasn’t real. It was a delusion.
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night.
naomi24 Saul/Paul is thought to have suffered from epilepsy
L- //// were did you get that informaion
His ‘encounter’ with Jesus came long after the crucifixion.
L-// after Jesus Resurrection . after the 40 days on the Earth and then ascending to the heavens so it wouldn't have been that long?
In other words it wasn’t real. It was a delusion
L-// To saul it was real and he went on to be minister until his death so it was real to him- And now delusion

.? In his young days Timothy was a close companion of Paul the apostle { no mention of any sickness}
Paul associated Timothy with himself in a number of his letters written to different congregations, for example, one written to the congregation in Philippi, Greece.
Corinthians 12:7-10. There the apostle Paul tells of how he suffered from something called “a thorn in the flesh.” Likely, the “thorn” was some kind of physical infirmity, perhaps involving his eyesight. yes but he did have problems with his eyesight because he was Blinded by the Light when Jesus arrived to see saul
Whatever it was, it kept “slapping” him down emotionally. Despite three earnest petitions for God to remove it, the “thorn” remained.
just because he fell to the ground suddenly and had the symptoms of epilepsy that does not mean to say he had this condition because even the servants was as dead because of the intense light ,
locusts - As always, you describe this as though it is proven fact - it is not, like everything you spout on here, it is not proven fact, it is a story.
pmsl here.
Locusts, you’re scraping the barrel. Saul of Tarsus witnessed Stephen’s death. That took place several years after the crucifixion. At that time Saul was still Saul. People who experience delusions usually think they’re real.
Question Author
People who experience delusions think they are real, and people who experience real visions believe they are real.
//People who experience delusions think they are real, and people who experience real visions believe they are real//
And people who think that they have a handle on truth think that they are real....

And what is your truth?

///Andy I don't know what you believe ? but it seems like you keep mocking in the Bible but let me ask you first four little easy questions???? then maybe you will realise it- it is my faith that I believe in the Bible is true .{because archaeology history andand dates which correspond from The Bible to archaeology}
question one most of you heard of the story of an France many people who full believe it is true it is a diary of her in captivity in the Nazi regime in 1940 to 45 IS it true or is it false or just a story
question two most people believe that the Roman built wall between Scotland and England and built by the Romans and history seems to bear this out –But once again is it true or false or just a story ? ?
question three how do we know that the Christian Crusades took place in Jerusalem against Islam by the church who so cold was fighting for the Christian religion {why do we believe it} question 4 how do we know that the slaves trade took place between 1700 to 1800 But the slave trade was abolished by the English outlawing ??? { is just another story or is it fact}
Naomi24 18:31 Tue 10th Aug 2021 Locusts, you’re scraping the barrel ? people who experience delusions .
Bible to me is not a delusion it is a book of facts- data -historical -events and even -history of the events of the Israelites people who lived in the land at the time and their persecution, many archaeology have found remains to prove the bibles and its authenticity? And these events did take place.
Locusts, the bible is not a book of facts. If it were there would be
No dispute.
Belief in the Bible is predicated on the belief in a man in the sky. There is no historical evidence for this before 21 November 1783.
Question Author
The, ''man in the sky,'' is a derogatory term that simply emphasises the derision you hold for something so fantastic that you find it unbelievable. Not because are unintelligent, but because you have not delved into it with any seriousness.
Serious in depth study brings its own rewards.
