The Holy Grail

Not everything in the bible is the word of God. Wink Use your spiritual discernment and intuition to sift fact from fiction.

everything in the Bible is the word of God and is there for our benefits

sure have to use spiritual decernment, but based on what do we decern/test this spiritual decernment?

Our intuition? how can we based it on the intuition of a fallen being (us)

btw if not everything in the Bible is the word of God, then all of us (christian) will be in trouble.... how do we know which is and which is not (any person can than pick and choose whatever he/she like and discard the rest) Sad

hrmm, interesting thoughts.

actually i did read the book. makes me wonder why some are so intrigue by the "codes".....hrmm...even if there are codes in da vinci's paintings - so what har ? da vinci isnt there when Jesus conducted His public ministry, he isnt there during the Last Supper.

i like da vinci's painting of the last supper due to its artistic imagination but it never come across to me that he is painting a perfect depiction of what went on that time. how could he if he is not there ? based on a few secret documents ? crap. Laughing

Precisely.... all folks here should watch the movie "Crazy History of the World Part 1 by Mel Brooks" One scene featured the last supper, with Jesus and the 12 disciples having their last meal in a restaurant's private room, a waiter was having difficulty trying to take their orders, in walked Da Vinci because Jesus wanted to record this occasion. Da Vinci proceeded to rearrangement the sitting arrangment to how the painting was done...... Those who have not seen this movie should go get it....

Point is: even if DaVinci is part of the Priory of Sion (which I have serious doubts over), there is no way to connect him to the actual last supper other than painting what he thought occured.

A classic liberal stand. Karl Barth, Rudolph Bultmann and etc. theology.

"how can the Bible be said to be the word of God when there are words there spoken by Satan? Words spoken there by unbelievers? Words spoken there by enemies of God?"

"How can the Bible [all of it] be the Word of God when there are obvious fictional and mythical stories there?"

all of the Bible is the word of God because it was God through the inspired writers who narrated what Satan, unbelievers, his enemies have actually spoken.

You can be sure that what the Bible has recorded about what these personalites have said are the accurate words of what these persons [Satan, unbelievers and his enemies] actually uttered.

You can be sure that all that have been recorded [including miracles] are historical accounts.

When we read bible, everyone will have different perspective in the mind. E.g When Jesus feed the 5000 ppl with 5 loaf and 2 fish. Some will be convince that its a miracle but to some they may think the disciples may have gone out to get more food to feed the people. Believe in your own conviction, its meaningless to convince others to believe your conviction. To some bible is an fantasy book, to some is a prophesy book, to some is an encouragement book. Everyone has different views, know what you belive in and be bless by it. Very Happy
