    It is at my attention that many people teach the bible just a little bit differently than Jesus did.
    Is that not his book? Is it not he who should be sought after for truth? Can one "improve" his messages? Yes; yes; no.
    The bible, if you believe any of it, is fine. It stands on its own legs and carries the weight of millions upon its back.
    To understand the messages; one must know the deliverer of the messages. Jesus. For without him, nothing was made. All things were made through him.
    If you believe any of the bible; it is important to believe it all.
    The very elect among us will be fooled. So, how do we stay assured of our right standing with God??? Believe ALL that he says; in the spirit of which he said all things.
    This discussion should include whatever comes to mind.
    Time is getting short, again. We only have until our final breath left.
    The bible is the Christian book, and Jesus is first-born of his lineage. He is the king of kings. His father gave him that position, for in him, God was well pleased.  He is the authority.
    Say what he says; take on his mind; follow him. He's going to the kingdom.
    How do we understand what he says? Receive him alone. False prophets have arisen.

      "Is that not his book?"

      No.  It was not written by him, and very little of the book is about him, either. 

      "If you believe any of the bible; it is important to believe it all. "

      And yet we know that much of it is absolutely false to fact.  The flood, creation in 7 days, reanimation of rotting corpses, etc. are known to be false.  Best no believe none of it then?

      "False prophets have arisen."  Indeed they have; we've seen some of the right here in these forums.  Claiming to have received God's word but unable to provide evidence of it, claiming to have the spirit in them but with messages differing from the other "prophets" posting.  Best to ignore them all and let God speak directly to us, with the only problem being that that never (verifiably) happens.

        Hi. smile
        We really do not have to discuss it. I'd like to help some who wonder about it...so maybe you should not be on the list???
        However, for the record, I believe all the things you mentioned, did happen in some form or another. Those facts are strictly protected by each man. In his heart. I mean, each of God's men; in their hearts. They believe the report of the Lord.

                    If you tell me that everyone is welcome into heaven no matter what...you are a liar. Jesus said differently.
                    If you tell me that Jesus is not nor should be focal in Christianity, you are a liar. Jesus (and God) said differently.

            That's easy peasy.

            Mark 15:25  It was nine in the morning when they crucified him.
            John 19:14  It was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about noon.

            What time was that again?

            Mark 16:1-5  When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. 2 Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb 3 and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”  But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5 As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.

            John 20:1-10  Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. 2 So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!” 3 So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. 4 Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen. 8 Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside. He saw and believed. 9 (They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.) 10 Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.

            Rather different stories. One says three people, the other says one. One says there was someone inside the other doesn't. I particularly like the part where one guy and 2 women were wondering who was going to roll the stone away. Good times. I could do this all day.

              Looks to me like Mark 15:33 casts a different light on Mark and his watch... he says Jesus was crucified at 9a.
              Then ch33 says, @noon it was dark; @3p Jesus cried out...easy peasy... wink
              also, it's 9:27a where I'm is. smile what time is it there???

              As for your other story: once all the words are read for each scripture, it looks to me like the exact same story told from two different perspectives.
              Mark started his story on the night of the Sabbath. He then picks up with John on early the next morn. John seems to have singled Mary out at 20:11 he begins with just Mary again after the other two went home. The rest is literary emphasis.
              Is this all you have??? Surely, there is much more that would account for the remarkable "contradictions" that flood the bible, making it not worth the very pretty paper it is printed on...

              Not hard to understand what time.  Mark was using the Jewish time, which would put the crucifixion at or around 9:00 AM or the third hour.  The Jewish day starts at 6:00 AM.

              John put Jesus before Pilate at the 6th hour, Roman time.  Roman time starts at midnight and wopuld have put Jesus before Pilate at or around 6:AM.

              Did Mary only go one time to the tomb of Jesus?

    Jesus was crucified at 9am Hebrew time. He was on the cross six hours. Darkness fell from noon to 3pm. He died at 3pm. You can find evidence of this throughout the gospels. You can also find evidence of it in other writings.

    John does NOT say that Jesus was crucified at "noon", though many translations (e.g., NET, NLT, Amplified, the Message, etc.) do inaccurately interpret the text as "noon". In truth, John states that it was "about the sixth hour" when they crucified him. What does that mean? Was it a different time he was using? Or was it about the sixth hour since the ordeal began - it had been six hours since Jesus' arrest the night before.

    How many women went to the grave? Several. Can you figure out their "standing" - Mary Magdalene, Mary (mother of James), Joanna, Salome, and other women. If you spotted your good pal Joe at an event and told someone about it, would you also mention everyone else there? Not necessarily. Never does it say the other women were NOT present when one or two is mentioned, so there is no contradiction!

        If your statement "reason is the way we get to truth" stands,  no wonder that your truth without Jesus has many faces because the reason of the strongest comes best on top every time newest appears… Jesus said it clearly " I AM the Way and the Truth and the Life." Failure to grasp " I AM "  leads to false conclusion and incapacitate further communication.

            Dialog would be possible at the appreciable level : the godly side doesn't consist of cowards running away. We simply speak a higher wisdom revealed to us by the Spirit, which therefore only those  filled with the Spirit and not the sensuous apprehend; this should  be accepted that the children of God ( (Christians filled with the Spirit of God) are not authorized to reduce God's wisdom- so that can be botched at the reasoning level leading to no conclusion. We compare spiritual things to the spiritual. And,  when we speak we speak the same what God- Jesus of Nazareth or ANY believer would be speaking - we do speak the same mind of Christ.

              You know, I see that quite a bit in these forums.  "I have the Spirit of God and therefore know more than you do; you should believe everything I, or anyone I approve of, has to say".

              Doesn't wash for the reasoning person.  For instance, you claim that Jesus said something specific, based on your research of what someone 2,000 years ago and hundreds of years after the man you call Jesus is said to have lived, had to say about it.  Someone very concerned about maintaining his power grip on the people, someone that did no research/testing himself.  A reasoning person wants just a little more than that.

                …as the enemies of the Creator- only true and living God- are easily irritated when a person whose English isn't first language construct sentences in the way the would be forced for  an apology... You Sir, accept my apology , please and do know that many other intelligent authors never used that as a basis  for putting down another human being, (they accepted my errancy). What bothers most of the enemies of God is superiority of His being , His Word and his children. The ' godly side ' is not what makes me or the other believers "very brave" ( How do you know that ?)- it is eternally established truth for " brave" sinners who turn away from the satan's domain and accepting offer to be part of family of God- once again simply by " "receiving" the eternal Word, ' but to those who did receive him he gave authority to become children of God, to those who believe in him. They were born, not from human stock, not from physical desire, nor from the will of a man, but from God." ( Constructed by TNT scholars ). This is not a religion. God isn't religious as some traditional theory  includes the way of God's dealing as a 'religion'. You might be surprised, that my religion might be good and healthy eating, instead being "member' of any man-made religions. . . Well,  that's completely different subject.

                  Well - all the time you claim to be superior to me I will tend to find fault in your lazy approach to the English language. Why not find a forum in your own language to tell everyone how brave and superior you are?

                  And if you don't understand why your claims to superiority are likely to cause ill will and irritation, I will probably not be able to explain it to you.

                What do you think of the claims of one or two atheists to be more superior than Christians in intelligence and reasoning? I somehow believe that to be the dominant idea. But I have seen no claims of superior-minded conflict headed in their direction.
                Have you noted that particular bias??? I mean, it don't bother me none... I know what I know. wink
                But I think truth is far more important. Everyone who thinks themselves superior  should get the sticker smile

Let those who have God's approval continue to have it, and let holy people continue to be holy." GW Transl.

    Just so we are clear; learning is a forever process.  It is not a matter of letting go of any attainment of knowledge. That thought is so silly, I rarely address it.
    My life of faith is being sure of this one thing. God/Jesus/Bible. (Looks like three things, but they are tight, like one)
    Letting all else align or not.
    For others, they are assured that Pythagoras was right.

        Mar 16:9  Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
        Mar 16:10  And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
        Mar 16:11  And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

        Mary Magdalene first preached the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 

        Mar 16:15  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

        Preach the gospel to every creature.  Believe it or don't believe, it is your choice.

          After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.

          Mar 16:13

          And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them. 

          Mar 16:14

          Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

          Mar 16:15

          And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

      Jesus never told mary to preach anything. If she went out and told people she saw him rise, it was of her own choice.

      He wasn't speaking to her when he said to go out and preach.

      I am surprised sirdent was so deceitful as to leave out the lines that showed who Jesus was talking to. Interesting.

        Thanks for calling me a liar.  You are not the first to do so and likely not the last.

        Luk_2:36  And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;

        Anna, a prophetess,(minister,preacher).

        Jdg_4:4  And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.

        Deborah, a prophetess and a judge. 

        2Ki_22:14  So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, went unto Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college;) and they communed with her.

        Huldah, a prophetess, (minister, preacher).

        Act 21:8  And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him.
        Act 21:9  And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.

        Philip had 4 daughters who prophesied, (preached).

          Well don't leave out pertinent information, and I won't call you on it.

          And a prophetess is not a preacher. And even if they were, no where does it say God ordered them to preach, or even approved.

            Well, the debate will continue about women preachers and the semantics of preaching and prophesying, but Cgenaea speaks because she has the gift of prophecy (not forth telling, but speaking the words / truth of God given through the Spirit and the Word). In the last days, the sons AND the daughters will prophecy. And as Sir Dent has shown, her activities are in line with many women throughout Scriptures, including the first person ever to go out and share the good news about Jesus Christ (who happened to be a woman).

            I'm sorry you all missed her beautiful point about the rocks crying out if the men kept silent. Truly, if the honor will go to the rocks, before that point it will go to whoever is willing for our Lord - women and any other disregarded group.

    janesix & Co. Here's a little something for your journey.
    John 20:17
    Jesus said, (to Mary) “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

    I remember it being also misunderstood that Mary was "sent" by Jesus with a message when he got up from the grave. I know Sir Dent incinerated the bone already, but i found the script of confirmation. John, was given the story to report.
    Thank you, Jesus, for making it plainer, and sticking up for me.
