mauial Sunshine, if you cared to do research you would find that there are translations out there that consulted the oldest manuscripts for accuracy, like the Dead Sea Scrolls. Do you think the Almighty God who inspired men to write the Bible does not have the power...

mauial Your very first sentence implies you are blaming the Bible by calling it a book of fiction. If you would study it seriously you would see it isn't fiction, but the word of God. Again put the blame where it belongs. People in general really don't know what it...

mauial If you had knowlege of the scriptures you would know that Christ is Greek for Messiah which Jesus, Yeshua if you want, was. So why is it wrong for Paul to refer to Jesus as Christ? Jesus was the promised Messiah or Christ. Matthew 15:14 talks about "blind...
