THE BIBLE AND CHRISTIANITY

Below are some interesting facts or details about the bible and the Christian doctrine that need to be examined :

1. The bible is without error or discrepancy. - Well, church leaders and pastors tell us that the bible is inerrant and does not contain contradictions. But is it truly free from error and contradictions ? We can look at the bible and see for ourselves several contradictions and factual errors. See http://www.freethoughtdebater.com/tenbiblecontradictions.htm

2. Faith alone saves. - Pastors would like us to believe that all is we need is faith to be saved. But James 2:24 says,
            Ye see that by works a man is justified, and not by faith alone.

3. God is everywhere. - Is God omnipresent ? Whatever happened to the belief that God is in heaven ? Could it be that God sees all things without being everywhere ? Proverbs 15:3 says,
             The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch of the wicked and good.


4. Tithing is an important form of worship. - Jesus and his disciples NEVER tithed. Does it mean that they did not worship God ? Certainly not. It just goes to show that it is not a valid form of worship. Jesus and his disciples GAVE. And to give is what is expected of Christians especially to those in need.

5. Jesus commanded His disciples to baptize in the name of the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit. - If Jesus did command His disciples to baptize in the name of the trinity, how come not a single one of them did ?

Our faith must be based on the logical truth. We should see things as they truly are. It is the truth will set us free.
