![WHY DO ONLY 50% OF CHRISTIANS TRUST THE BIBLE 100%? [2 of 4]
A second testament to the veracity of the Bible is the Jewish copy methods, including the writing of doctrine on surfaces that would last; like the skins of clean animals, pottery, and sometimes even copper scrolls. And by the way, in God's sovereign plan, a lot of these items were stored in the desert where the extreme dryness greatly facilitated the preservation process. It's almost like God knew what He was doing, right? Also, the Jewish scribes had to produce a product with the exact same number of lines and columns throughout every Bible codex (an ancient text in book form). In fact, it literally involved a mathematical formula, a set mandatory recipe for the ink, they could not write anything from a memory, (including insignificant punctuation), those copying had to sit in full dress, they even washed their whole body over and over again each time they wrote the name of God, and even if a king or other royalty addressed that scribe, he could not acknowledge the noble, which was most likely punishable by death back in those days. So keeping the integrity of the manuscript work was very serious stuff! | image tagged in bible,trust,authority,god,jesus,truth | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/40k29v.jpg)
![IS THE BIBLE ONLY SOURCE OF AUTHORITY ON THIS PLANET? YES! And we Christians need to keep that truth! Don't just say it or only have it on your website or just make it another doctrinal statement. If you really stick to that truth, praise God, you will never be steered wrong. Take it, cherish it, and hold tight to it! Instead of a statement only, it has to be your behavior. Many people, including professing Christians, do not follow the dictates of the Bible for what they believe and how they behave. Instead, they more value their own personal opinion, secular society, the educational system, the media, and their friends. In practice, those are what people really believe in. But all that is just a hodgepodge of everything from a fallen society rather than God's Word in the Bible. Just keep your path clean and pure with God because He never gets it wrong. Stick to the Bible as your only source of authority. The sixty-six books of the Bible constitute God's ***ONLY*** written revelation to mankind. If I could do so in writing, "ONLY,” in the previous sentence would have included fireworks and maybe a huge dragon head shooting fire at it, just to emphasis the word more. When Joseph Smith, other Mormons, New Agers, Hindus, or anyone, including a professing Christian, tell you they have a new revelation, or Word from God for you, what should be your response? It must be, “No, I you don't. The Bible is sufficient for me.” "The Bible...is the inspired, verbal (the very words), plenary (all of the words), infallible (trustworthy), [without error] in the original manuscripts, Word of God. The Bible is the sole authority for faith and practice (Matthew 5:18; 22:31-32; Galatians 3:16; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Peter 1:20-21)." The Bible should be, but unfortunately that's not the practice for many professing Christians. Besides the Bible, there has been no other written revelation given by God. Again, there is NO other written revelation from God besides the Bible—period! | image tagged in bible,truth,god,jesus,authority,life | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3sirqm.jpg)
