Heb 1:1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets,
Heb 1:2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.
Heb 1:3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
Yes, but is that true? How will you demonstrate that?
Quote:Dear Stimbo,
I know you don't like when I go to the Bible for answers but it has the answers to your questions..
1Co 1:18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1Co 1:19 For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart."
1Co 1:20 Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?
1Co 1:21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe.
1Co 1:22 For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom,
1Co 1:23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles,
Yes, but is that true? How will you demonstrate that?
I think I'll ask those questions every time a theist decides that just quoting a holy book counts as an answer to a question. Maybe in attempting to answer them the theist will actually get the message, which is that their holy quotes aren't an answer at all, to those that don't automatically credit them as reflective of reality.
I live in hope.
