@secondson saidWhat? I used that scripture earlier, so why are you quoting to me as though I’d not heard of it?
Duh!

@galveston75 saidWhy would I need anyone to “back me up”?
You are just upset that you have no one to back you up except that is FMF who has turned his back on Jehovah. Not such a good move to me as that says it all....
@secondson saidI’m following the thread fine thank you. I misunderstood you quoting “me” from the thread title when I was quoting someone else.
Getting late in the evening over there, right? Having difficulty following your thread? Can't remember what you and others are saying from one post to the next? After all we are 12 pages in.
@divegeester saidYes, I do! 🙂 I find it all 100 % true in my opinion and life experiences. 🙂
Have any of you got a response to the first question in my OP?

“I’ve been brought up to believe that the bible is the complete and infallible word of God. Nothing can be added to it and nothing taken away.
Why? How do we know this?”
I accept that you find the daily working of scripture to work for you in your life, but how do you know that the entire bible is the complete and infallible word of god?

Where does scripture say that it is complete?
Where does it say that man will not try and change it? Etc? Thank you.
@kingdavid403 saidThis is exactly my point, it doesn’t.

This is what I’m asking .. how is one to KNOW? (It is complete, infallible, etc etc )

Spiritually.
However, it is NOT complete: and, man can change it as we all know.
[Matthew 16:16-17 NKJV] 16 Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." 17 Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed [this] to you, but My Father who is in heaven."
@kingdavid403 saidI’m sorry but I don’t understand how this exchange between Peter and Jesus about Jesus’ deity can be transposed to a person knowing wether of not the bible is the complete (I.e. no other holy texts) and infallible word of god.

@kingdavid403 saidIn your view, is your behaviour here, and on other forums on this website, "Christ-like"?
Question? Do you really think that your actions to others here are Christ-like?

@kingdavid403 saidWas divegeester "Christ-like" in your chess clan? How many other "Christ-like" people were members of your clan?
What the hell happened to you divegeester?
You were a member of my clan for at least three or four years and you were never like this. I always considered you a great clan-mate both off and on the board. What the hell happened for God's sake? Either that or you wore a thick cloak back then. What?
@kingdavid403 saidYou see yourself as "Christ-like"?
