Each time you read your Bible and there is a different outlook, it is God's way of telling you what to do today?

For those who believe, the Bible is a living book.  Which means that the words today are as true as they were yesterday, today, and tomorrow.  When you find new understanding of the scripture it is a little of both going on.  God knows that no one can understand everything all at one time, and he knows that we all learn in different ways.  When scripture messages are "revealed" to you, that is a revelation that God sent to you in a way that you needed to understand it at a time you needed to understand it. Now if you interpret, and it is not God's will, he will find a way to "reveal" that too.  Because if you believe and are truly faithful, God will always provide you with the tools and the information you need.  So, even if you interpret (yourself) and it is a wrong interpretation because you got in the way of your own understanding, God will reveal it to you when you need it.  That is why being a Christian is a journey.  If we all had the ability to read, understand, and apply absolutely everything, then the journey would be over. So, sometimes you will be confused, sometimes you will stumble...but if you are a believer and you ask...he will pick you up when you fall. Just be open and accepting of your revelations as they come and keep studying. Good luck and God Bless.

Look, I've never read the bible before.\nAll I know is it's all on how you want to interpret it.

No it isn't a good plan since it probably wasn't God's plan to begin with. The Bible was created by the church and by religious leaders. So the way God reaveals himself to humans is through personal experience with each one. Of course most of us won't realize that He is doing so.

Basically He is saying if we do what He commands and teaches, and live as close to the way He did, we are true followers of His.  He is often referred to as "the truth", the way and the life.  So really, to know the truth, is to know Him, and He will make you free.  Free from sin and sorrow...

I think it's called "God is Trying to Tell You Something".  I love that scene!

The bible states that he uses others in his work so maybe the way it should be read is that he is using one to punish the other.

God has a plan for you and me and He alone decides when to accomplish His plans. He is a faithful God not willing to let any of us to perish.His plans for us are known only by Him.

The bible is 'Gods' word to us.It says to pray without ceasing. That means on a daily basis.I have had prayers that haven't ''yet'' been answered. They are still in his care waiting for right time or till I realize it isn't His will for my life, and I find peace about it.Hang in and hang on..God is faithful.   ''He is able to do exceedingly ,abuntdantly above that which  I ask or think''

It is my belief that God simply knows the end of each possible path in your life. He knows if you choose road A where it will lead, and if you choose road B where it will lead...but the choosing is up to you.\n\nNo one knows what God's plan is, we can only do the best we can with what we've been given.

For the Christian, God knows all. He knows what we will do and even think. But we don't. He has given us free will. So whatever decisions I make are new to me; I don't know the outcome, but God does.

I would have to agree with you. Most people do not take the time to see all the great things that God did for them that day. Or that God is always with us , giving us a helping hand . However I can see all the things pointed out or Quoted in the Book of Revelations that are happening today. Maybe these people want nothing more then to be with Our Lord & Saviour

Just because I write a book and say God told me what to write, doesn't mean its true, even if I really believe it to be.\n\nIf I kill someone and say God told me to, that does not make it true, but I might feel less responsible by saying it and believing it.  \n\nWhat is that saying...the purpose of some people's lives is a warning to others.  I feel that way about most of the Old Testament.  I do, however, find many of the Psalms quite lovely, and many of the Proverbs, quite instructional.

It is best to do what God has told you to do and do it then. I have been there. You are always happier when you are in Gods will than when out of it.

It's typical Christian behaviour. \n\nThey are right, everyone else is wrong, and God /did/ tell them what to write in the Bible.\n\nWRONG. The Bible is man's interpretation of his God. If God is real, which I don't believe, the Bible does not reflect his wishes properly.

Yes,that is what the bible says.

You compare what you think Jesus is telling to Scripture.  Does what he said in your dream jive with the rest of the Bible?  That is the best way to know.

It always changes depending on my situation in life.  Right now I keep going back to Joshua 1:9.\n\n"Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."
