ouch to the girl comment.
hm. There have been so many ideas who the antichrist is. from Hitler to Obama. how is Hamas (whoever he is) any different? I believe we're nearing - probably in the end times already, but it wouldn't help if we say every person that comes along is the antichrist.

In the spirit of keeping it simple, why do you believe in the bible? All I am asking for is your opinion. I promise I will not call you a name. 😄
because I believe that the Bible is God's word. 🙂
no debates. I don't want the "but man wrote it" argument. I don't want nothing. please 🙂

But you have not answered my question. Saying that the bible is something is not an answer to why you believe the bible. Can you try again, please?

I believe in the Bible because I believe that's one of the ways God answers back to my queries, problems, prayers, etc...
if that's still not the answer you're looking for, perhaps you could specify a bit. 🙂

That is closer. Was you born a Christian?
What do you mean by "one of the ways"?

yes.I believe there are many ways God answers back.
Have you done any reading on the Counsel Nausea? There were a lot of books that were candidates for being placed in the bible. Revelations was a very controversial choice for being placed in the bible. Many members of the counsel did not agree on adding that book, but it was too popular to leave out.
IMO Revelations was an Anti-Roman Propaganda Code Book. If you look into it, you will see that there are other examples of this kind of writing from the same time period.

never read, but I know that there were a lot of candidates, and I've heard that Revelations was very controversial.
I have no current desire to, but that is a very interesting statement. 🙂 maybe someday, some other time...

I find it ironic that the bible was compiled by humans placed on a counsel by a war lord (emperor) of the very nation that is depicted as evil in Revelations.
