DAVEH:� Yes, I agree.� But when I was referring to the "word of God", I thought we were speaking of the Bible, which is a record of the word of God as recorded, transcribed and translated by the hand of fallible men.� What comes from the mouth of the Lord cannot be changed, but the way men use what comes from His mouth can be changed.....does that seem reasonable to you, Carroll? ��� And yes, I understand that you believe that what one finds in the Bible is exactly as the Lord wanted it recorded.� But I respectfully disagree.� It may or may not be as God wants it, depending on the accuracy of the transcriptions and translations.� I have previously pointed out various translations that were obviously erroneous.� I'm sure you would agree that some of those bad translations were certainly not meant by God to have been printed that way. > > > >���� BTW......It isn't that God or Jesus would be letting us down, if > they > > > > allowed men to change the Bible.� God gives commandments and if it were > > > not possible for men to break them, then how could they be pertinent!?!?!? > > > > > **I think I touched on this already-2 Timothy 3:5 Having a form of > > > godliness, but denying the power thereof :...
