Bible Discussion Thread

I joined this page as I wished to read about the blessed King James Bible from a basic fundamental perspective. I don't use social media and avoid any "Christian" websites due to the diverse false doctrines. As many have written great words of inspiration and wisdom. I see an equal amount who contribute doctrines which cause discord and a feeling of loss for new believers (denial of pre-tribulation rapture, denial of Heaven after death, denial of permanent Salvation/eternal security, etc). I'd ask this to those here in all transparency and understanding: are we making this a safe place for the newly born again to learn about the Holy Bible with the simple sound doctrines which are taught? Or are we complicating the Word of God?

2 Corinthians 11:1-6

Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

If you're newly born again, the greatest truths you need to know in this Bible are:

Galatians 2:21 - I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Romans 10:9 - That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

God bless you all.

You were right about one thing that you said : are we complicating the word of God , I think we are all guilty of that occasionally , but probably not intentionally .

Dear Daniel , as you read through the posts on here , you will probably realise that there are many different denominations on here . I for one , do not say anything on here that I don't actually believe . We have had many disputes on here in the past , some have gotten a bit heated and some of us have taken breaks from this site or even disappeared completely . I think that all of us on here recognise that we can all learn something from each other and as this site is not affiliated to any particular church denomination , we are free to express our beliefs and hopefully discuss them politely . This is a Bible site , so , I think most of us are more interested in what the Bible actually says than in different church doctrines . I enjoy reading lots of different posts , even when I don't agree with them , it stimulates me to think more about , and try to learn from the Bible . If we all thought the same way and were in total agreement it would get a bit dull I think , we are all at different levels of understanding but we are on the same path I believe . I'm not a 'born again evangelical ' I'm not even sure what that means . If you use language that isn't actually biblical , then I don't always understand what is being talked about . I love the Bible and I think most people on here do too .

Very true, Suze. We all try to do our best on here and learn from one another, pray for one another, and share our heartfelt thoughts on biblical truth.
