No Christian has ever equated the Bible with being God.

You admitted it up thread.

Thales, this is the guy I told you about off list. When you get a chance tell him about textual context versus historical definition shift. It might help him with some of his issues.

I don't want to hijack the thread so ping me when he makes one of "those" comments again.

As an agnostic / Metatheist I have to ask. In the dark ages before Skype I would tell my daughters picture that I missed her when I was out of town and would give her and my wife's picture a kiss goodnight, was that worship?

verga: When I lived up north I saw Oral Roberts in person hold a Bible up and tell the crowd they would find God in there.

ealgeone:I'm not a fan of Oral Roberts in any way but to his point....where else will you find out about God if not in His Word??

13These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. 1 John 5:13 NASB

30Therefore many other signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name. John 20:30-31 NASB

I also corrected you in my post 362, 340, 339 on this issue.

Now, as I told you previously...if you're going to quote someone get it right.

You want to have a discussion on the topic....fine. I have no problem with that.

But as you've been corrected and shown to be in error on the statement you aledge I made about "equating the Bible with God", I have a problem with that.
