The writer has very little knowledge of what the bible is - because it is the LIVING WORD OF GOD.

The Living Word of God is Jesus, not a book. The writer is correct. If one worships a book, then any translational or editional error (whether by accident or on purpose), results in doctrinal changes. When one defers to the Church, then the message of Scripture will supersede any accidental or deliberate changes in Scripture.

Jesus is The Living Word! The writer is wrong - he refers to it as only a book. When the Holy Spirit speaks to one through THE LIVING WORD there is NO error!

Yes, Jesus is the Living Word of God. The Holy Scripture is the written Word of God from which Jesus Himself taught. We worship Jesus and we live by His written Word. Just wanted to clarify, since we don’t actually worship “a book”. We do revere God’s written Word, but I doubt there are very many Christians who bow down or pray to “a book”. We defer to the Scriptures; a church’s teachings must come from God’s Word and not the other way around.
