Do you read the Bible or ever read one?
I haven't and have absolutely no interest in it.
shareI am an agnostic but there is some good stuff in the Bible. I own one and dip into it from time to time.
Romans 11:32 - For God has consigned all men to sin so that he might have mercy on them all.
Matthew 7:6 - Give not that which is holy unto the dogs. Neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn and rend you.
Psalm 23 - Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.
Yes, I have read the entire Bible multiple times.
shareI've read and studied it though not as much lately. It fits very well if you look at the overall picture. I've heard the Bible referred to as God's love story for mankind. It's still relevant today as the guide book for life, especially the New Testament. There's lots of good stuff in the Old Testament, too, for me I especially enjoy the book of Psalms.
shareI have a bible but I rarely read it. To me it is gibberish, no offence to those who believe in it.
shareYou may not believe this but it was pretty much like that for me, too but when I decided to actually seek God, it literally opened up for me and I was very surprised and able to understand it.
shareI don't believe in a "god", but I don't have a problem with those who are believers. I believe in logic and reasoning. No offense.
shareI'm not offended and I get it. My point is, we all have times in our lives where we may be unsure. If you are ever in that state of mind and you'd like to try, do so with a willing heart and an open mind. He says to seek Him with all your heart and you will find Him.
shareI'm actually in the process of re-reading it. It's a hot mess. Not the book itself, but the people in the book. I say this all as a Christian. Even God pretty much said "What have I done?" after making people in chapter one.
