Reasons for believing in the Bible as the literal word of God.

As Jesus warned, don't share your pearls of God's word with pigs.

Matthew 7:6 esv
Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you.

You really think that chanting Bible quotes is somehow
making a point?

There's a reason that atheists are obsessed with disparaging God and believers. They don't believe in Satan nor his angels and demons but they most definitely exist, and they whisper into the ears of atheists, who do their bidding.

Please demonstrate that angels and demons exist. Show me some evidence, and I'll believe.

One of the many things that makes Chridtianity
so absurdly unbelievable is the way its split into
40,000 denominations all claiming the others
are the ones with false doctrines.
But the " untrue" I referred to goes much deeper.
The whole lead- in, the 6 day poof and flood,
and more all through to book, just is not true.
Didn't happen. False history.
Another big reason not to believe it.
Jesus forewarned us so that we would be forearmed that MANY come in his name but prove false at Matthew chapter 7.
Just as we speak of grandfather's day or Noah's day and know ' day ' was Not a literal 24 hr. day.
In Scripture all of the creative days are summed up by the singular word ' day ' at Genesis 2:4.
There is nothing in Scripture to indicate that each of the creative days were of the same or of differing lengths of time.

True or genuine 'wheat' Christianity would be recognized by Jesus' New Commandment found at John 13:34-35.
Just like the fake ' weed/tares ' would be identified by behavior.

Supposedly, some god whispers in your ear, and yet you are the one whose posts contain nothing but snide and belittling epithets about those who disagree with you. Either your god is the evil one, or your god is just you.

So, you could be a tare. Or a goat.

It seems to me that most people want peace so why isn't there more peace on earth.
Satan is the behind-the-scenes puppet master pulling the corrupted world's strings - Rev. 12:12,9
Leading the powers in charge to be saying, " Peace and Security...." as the coming final signal before the outbreak of the great tribulation. 1st Thess. 5:2-3

Not to disagree with me but disagree with Jesus as King - Matthew 25:31-34,37 - Jesus does the judging Not any of us.
What is evil about bringing an end to wickedness on Earth - Isaiah 11:3-4; Rev. 19:14-15; 11:18 B
MAN's l-o-n-g history shows it is MAN who has dominated MAN to MAN's injury, MAN's hurt.
If everyone on Earth lived by the Golden Rule then what would conditions on Earth be like ________________

I didn't ask about Jesus. I asked about you. It could be you who is the tare. It could be you who is the goat. For all of your vaunted faith, it could be some other believer who is the sheep. Only God knows. Not you.

Then you would treat me as you want to be treated, and ignore how I want to be treated.

I would treat you how I want to be treated, and would ignore how you want to be treated.

Sounds self-centered and unempathetic.

Because I find my own to be far more useful.
One's own way is often the way of the world. ( or as back in the '60's ' Do your own thing ' )
I find the world ' doing its own thing ' has Not brought about Peace on Earth.
One's own way has shown that man's way has Not discovered or re-discovered man's purpose on Earth. - Gen. 1:28
Jesus came to teach so that we can discover (rediscover) that humble meek people are the ones who will inherit the Earth.
- Matt. 5:5; Psalm 37:9-11; Psalm 22:26

It is God who appointed Jesus as King who does the judging, Not me. - Matthew 25:31-34,37
Jesus is King (ruler) of God's kingdom government - 1st Cor. 15:24-26

At Jesus' New commandment found at John 13:34-35 we are to love others as Jesus loves others.
In other words, we are to have the same 'self-sacrificing love' as Jesus has (which is Not the self-centered love as described at 2nd Timothy 3:1-5,13)
Thus, we are to have the Christ-like love as defined at 1st Corinthians 13:4-6 which is the opposite of the selfish self-centered love found in 2nd Tim. 3.
We are to love neighbor MORE than self, MORE than the Golden Rule of Leviticus 19:18.

As if that's relevant to what I said.

I don't come in his name.
You do.

And many of your words are false as a
3 dollar bill.

All religions warn against straying,from orthodoxy.
