What did I Misunderstand, Zachariah?

I really hope that you don't seriously think I was being mean spirited in my joking response to you the other day. I would hope that humor can work both ways here. -Z

Again, I see your point. Yes, I guess I'm not thinking it through very well. I've heard many times that the Bible wasn't written in chronological order and it wasn't written all at once. It does cover the (what christians believe) beginning of time as we know it and everything since. Not too many books make that attempt. I guess that's what I was trying to get at. It cover the oldest known items ie.. the beginning. Other "completed" books were probably dating back further than the original "complete" Bible. Thnaks for keeping me on track. -Z

Nope. I'm in the book of Exodus currently. I haven't had alot of time to apply to it recently. Where we left off is probably where we will leave off I'm afraid. We both agree that almost all the backing for the statements made by John (as with the other gospels) were in the book of Isaiah. I haven't read it yet (Isaiah). I don't know where you stand on the prophecies from Isaiah. If youthink they are hogwash then we can stop here because I believe they are truely devine in there nature. What do you think? -Z

Thanks for the input. I'll give the open mind thing a shot. I haven't thought of that. Open minded hmmmmm?
