Not a question of what he WOULD do but what he DID do. Why are the Scriptures so hard to believe?

To: count-your-change; ex-snook

Why is it so hard to believe things occurred in the early life of the Church and Christianity that aren’t recorded in Scripture? Scripture itself says that all the sayings and deeds of even Jesus aren’t recorded. (John 21:25). Why would anyone think His Mother’s life (and “death”) would be recorded in exact detail if even Jesus’ deeds couldn’t all be recorded?

It seems to me it’s rejecting an entire portion of the deposit of Faith to ignore teachings that aren’t in the Bible, simply because they aren’t in the Bible. It’s like saying the other things Jesus did that aren’t written in Scripture aren’t important. The things JESUS did, aren’t important, JUST because they aren’t in the Bible.

Ponderous man, just ponderous.
