This may be a controversial topic but I still want to ask everyone if do we need to rely our beliefs or our way of living on the Bible? There are many religious sectors now but they have different beliefs yet they rely it on the Bible. What is obvious is that people have different understanding on what the Bible says therefore we are living in different ways yet many of us rely on the Bible. The are people mostly rely on it but there are only people that rely on some of its content. We must know that the Bible is also written by people, not God himself, and it undergoes revisions making it having different meanings. Also, we must know that what is written in the Bible is what happened in history but I might say that it does not happened all on the will of God. What are your thoughts on this?

I believe the Bible is the word of God. The writers are like secretaries writing what God told them to write for our benefit. Each one ifs free to decide to what point we let the Bible influence the way we live.

I don't think so anything that happens is the will of God... And every disobedient are long judge by God before it happens. No man can outwitted him. And yes we all should rely to the Bible... As the Holy Spirit inspired and help the people who wrote it remember the exact teachings and events of Christ life as he stayed.here. The Bible is the manual of life. It state there that it can't be interpreted in the way man interpreted it... We should interpret it the way God does that is why the Holy Spirit is with us. The only people who does not rely on it or do other things against it are the people who wants to sugar coat their disobedience and keeps on satisfying their sinful flesh. No one is perfect but those who try to obey God at the best that they can without compromising that makes them. Perfect in the sight of God. People who do a different thing in God's teaching are saying they are wiser done God and it is better to do their own ways.

Nice. I really like what you've said and I agree with it. Therefore we must still know the truth and the lies on what people says about the Bible. We just need to focus and trust God's will. And we must not just rely on what other says who interprets the Bible, we must also know when it is their own interpretation o it was interpreted the way it should be

The Bible is the written word of God, the Bible is the compilation of God's Word, the Holy Spirit inspired those who put it into writings, the answer is simple, once it is not in accordance with what is written, then it is not of God. JESUS defeated the devil by the written word of God, so also we can do likewise. I believe in the word of God, I believe in the Holy Bible.
