    2 Timothy 3:16  King James Bible

    "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

    This means God used secretaries to write down the thoughts of God so the Bible could give humanity and accurate history of how the world was made and how the human race was supposed to live.

    Blasphemy against that spirit is the only sin that cannot be forgiven. 

    How sad it would be if anyone any other beings on purpose interfered with that purpose and made something or a situation that would stop that spirit or cause it to not be believed. Some writings mention additional teachings to be added in the future from God.  Could that be additional Holy Books?  If anyone in the past did anything to interfere with that spirit no matter where they are from or who there parents are there should be horrible karma for them. There will be all kinds of demotions in the future for doing that on purpose in all the places they go or might exist to infinity or until they get tired of trying to fix the problem.  Those who knew the original purpose and have tired to restore it for the good of all deserve to be honored and treated poorly.

    If you are not immature, then why are you acting immature?

    Grow up and when you have an actual honest question - ask it, meanwhile keep it quiet.

    Because, like any good father, God leaves it to his children to do everything we can.  He never does it all for us unless something is out of our control.

    If an omnipotent benevolent god had created us and wanted us to know so, it could simply have us born with the knowledge of its existence, and what, if anything, it wants from us.

    This does not affect free will, because:

    1) Even people who are 100 percent sure of their religion (the vast majority of people who have ever lived) still commit what their religion considers sins

    2) The deity could still give us free will anyway, otherwise it wouldn't be omnipotent

    It would not use humans as prophets to get its message out, since clearly that channel of communication results in contradictory messages, and cannot be distinguished from messages that are not from the deity but only from the prophet (lies and insanity). The fact that there are many contradictory religions proves this beyond doubt. `

    From this reasoning, I conclude that either

    a) we were not created by a deity at all, or

    b) we were created by one that is not omnipotent, omniscient, and/or benevolent, or

    c) we were created by a deity that doesn’t care if we know it created us and has no demands of us.

    I believe a) is correct.

    He already has

    The Bible is inspired of God. But some may think, The Bible was written by men, so how can it be from God? The Bible answers: Men spoke from God as they were moved or, guided by holy spirit.

     This is similar to a businessman telling his secretary to write a letter. Who is the author of the letter? It is the businessman, not the secretary.

    In the same way, the Author of the Bible is God, not the men he used to write it. God guided them to write his thoughts. The Bible really is the word of God.

    You mean like what the Mormons teach?

    Yeah, I would much rather trust a consistent collection of books written by multiple men over a long period of time than a book that just dropped out of the sky.

    The Torah was originally 'traced' off of stones by illiterate people after Moses received them directly from the 'finger of GOD' which is a reference to an advanced divine etching technology involving acids, fire or both. They learned to read and write only by first learning these 'tracing' arts. 

    That actually happened on a mountain in the Sinai desert. Whether you believe it or not is a separate matter. 

    In the New Testament era, the actual word of GOD is 'written' directly into humans themselves inside the deepest well of human unconsciousness and can be accessed stage by stage by anyone who has been received into Christ's Holy Covenant through the indwelling Holy Spirit.

    "For God, who said, “Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

    "But we have this treasure in earthen containers, so that the extraordinary greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves." (2 Corinthians 4:6-7).

    "You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all people, revealing yourselves, that you are a letter of Christ, delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts." (2 Corinthians 3:2-3). 

    The 'rotting rag' version is just a copy made for the world's benefit and reflects only what is permanently and unalterably 'etched' within us.
