    Is progressive revelation believable?

    Their is no physical evidence of God. The best way to know God is through His divine names and attributes and the most perfect creature to display those in the physical world is the human being.

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    I think I said this earlier, I'm not a historian nor am I a biblical historian. You know what, the bible is a very peculiar book and despite what some people think the bible is not just one book it consists of many books. The question is, sense the bible is an old book, throughout the whole...

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    We believe in the bible. But we have to be careful not take it totally literally. They're are mystical, divine and spiritual meanings in a lot of the biblical stories. Like the creation story. How could you believe that story was totally literal? You can't because it totally flips on science...

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    So, every revelation that came into the world had a divine Teacher, or else we wouldn't even know about the revelation / teachings. You have to be really careful with religions that are very old like hinduism. Potentially over time things get convoluted and are not in their original state. I've...

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    You know, it wasn't really the holy scriptures that caused the problems in human history. It was ultimately human selfishness and prejudice that was the real cause. Just like you said: "when one thinks they have God's blessing, they can justify anything". Over time things became convoluted and...

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    Well some of the absolute truth are the foundational spiritual principles that each revelation has taught. For example: God is eternal. The true human reality is eternal. Listening to the Prophets / Messengers / Manifestations are the best way for divine education. Forgiveness. Do unto...

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    Hello. To be honest with you one of the reasons why sometimes I don't reply right away is because there's a lot of big responses from different users and I'm trying to get to them. Another reason is that to be honest I don't go on forums that much and I'm not one of those fast typers. So I'm...

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    Well it's not about saying the one Prophet is right and another Prophet is wrong. If both are ligitament Messengers then they're both right, it's just that they're teachings came at different times and places. That's why we have to have discernment about who's who. The criteria for a true...
