If You Have A Personal Relationship With Your God Why Do You Need The Bible? by LordReed(m): 9:32am On Mar 14, 2020 |
A relationship implies intimacy which means you would get to know things on a much deeper level. If you are in a relationship with a person would you prefer to read their diary or talk to them directly? Would you continue to hold on to their old diary or be updated with their current thoughts? What is the bible necessary for in an intimate relationship between you and your god? 6 Likes 3 Shares |

LordReed: And why do you want to know? Will that make you accept Christ? The answer to that question belongs to those who have that intimacy. 1 Like |

Oh..that was relevant Lord Reed.. you didn't understand his question. If you are a doctor? Well trained and have been certified? And you are an authority in your field Why then do you need to keep studying medical books even though it is said you are a professional. LordReed: 4 Likes |

peggywebbs: What then is a doctor having intimacy with? Is it something that has a mind, capable of listening, talking back and responding to your thoughts? Please let's all reason before answering questions. You don't need to read a book to know more about a person if you have an intimate relationship with them. Unless that person never existed. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

LordReed: I think your profession is very very relevant here Sir, because whatever profession you must have a PERSONAL INTEREST if you will perform excellently in the field. Personal relationship with God means dealing with him directly but there must be introduction between two persons before their relationship turns intimate! The Bible is like a letter from a loving father to his children, each one of us needs it to fully grasp how to deal with our heavenly father and our neighbours, if you feel you don't need a father apart from your biological human father it means you will only live your life within the circumference of what you learnt from your biological father, but to cohabit peacefully with other humans whose biological fathers differ from yours, we all need an eternal father whose standards can help us! |

Yes it does . The doctor very much believes in medicine..while a Christian believes his God. So a medical books is to a doctor as well a bible is to a Christian. It's really not that hard LordReed. Except you still choose to deny the obvious truth. LordReed: |
Re: If You Have A Personal Relationship With Your God Why Do You Need The Bible? by peggywebbs(f): 3:54pm On Mar 14, 2020 |
Yes to answer your question, a doctor had intimacy with medicine..in fact that's all he lives for. And you need a book to learn about your religion. Its,origin, its rules, its principles. Just as muc much as a country needs law to maintain order. A Christian needs their bible as a guide. Why do you all deny the truth. Even in our daily lives we need books,..some read newspapers, others journals, magazines, online articles. Why? Because they contain knowledge. It's the same with the bible dear. Even atheists need books. If not how else will you keep finding facts to disprove religion? kingxsamz: 1 Like |

Yes doctors have intimacy with medicine. Yes medicine is able to identify problems, resolve them, and elicit reactions by reaching a cure or killing, it works on the brain, the nervous system and the entire wellbeing of the human body. You need a book to know about human behaviour, beliefs, ideology, and so much more. If not why do we even bother with education, media etc. kingxsamz: |
Re: If You Have A Personal Relationship With Your God Why Do You Need The Bible? by peggywebbs(f): 4:00pm On Mar 14, 2020 |
Medical books are based on facts that were once ideas or theories and experimented on. Religion is based on people's lives. You exist and that is a fact. MJBOLT: |

peggywebbs: Does the doctor claim he has a personal relationship with a being called medicine? You claim to have a personal relationship with a god yet you rely on a book. Shouldn't your relationship supersede the book? 3 Likes |
