A simple question for theists
#29
RE: A simple question for theists
I find the above discussion very interesting indeed, but again I don't find the answers to the question to be satisfactory, and the references to scripture are irrelevant. God's direct words are supposed to be that of absolute authority. Assuming the Bible is true, a direct instruction from God should take precedence over the Bible, because the Bible simply lays out what God has allegedly revealed to other people. God can still override this. According to the dictates of Christianity, if God says something, absolutely nothing is supposed to be able to challenge that.
