Backgrounds of wrote the Bible
I do believe it is divinely inspired, else it would not have been around as long as it has. Most historical works are lost or fragmented after that many years but by and large, as a whole, The Bible is still in tact. There are errors in translations and some are minor yet some get blown out of proportion. Then again, a lot of the cut and dry perfectly stuff gets blown out of proportion as well. Just imagine that every word you say gets wrote down, transcribed, passed along, and how someone smart could twist your words. Think major head game.
I watched that with Obama's preacher, and no, I don't like Obama, Bush, or any of the rest of the talking puppets we seem to keep electing, if indeed we do elect them. He said in a sermon that went viral on Youtube, and very much edited I might add, about the chickens come home to roost. Like most who watched it, it just pissed me off. Then I took time to think. What if the man was taken wrong as this was an old saying country folk used. It took me a while but finally I found the sermon in it's entirety. The man didn't talk about our troops but rather our government doing all sorts of evil deeds around the world and how if you do evil it will come back to you. I listened to other sermons he had and I think he is a raciest, but he didn't say what was thought by many who watched what I called years ago, sound bytes. One of the first things though I noticed in the Bible was the way it was written. I say one of the first but really it wasn't until the last few years that I've actually read in it, not read it though. I went to church in spells when I was young. For city folks that means I'd go and stop, go and stop. I took Bible Literature in High School. All the while, I went, set there, listened to the sermon, said amen, and never once considered to think or research for myself. I still don't go a lot to church and I don't look for that to change anytime soon. I don't expect the preacher to be perfect but he needs to know more than I do, and not go along with organized religion. But I stray from my original point. The Bible seems to be written by different types of men. Some you can tell were farmers and others were city people, there is a difference. Just as I could not survive and don't know the way of city people, neither do they know my ways either. When I sold real estate I saw many people who came here looking to farm and be self-sufficient only to go back home or at least close to the city. I imagine I'd be the same way should I try city life. It isn't that one is better than the other but rather they are just different ways of life. Each one is in a way dependent upon the other, connected, just as all things and people are. I really don't see God as putting His hand over the person and making them write as He saw fit, I'm sure that some of the person was in the writing as well as God. One can tell from the writing just which ones are country and which aren't. Country people use a lot of euphemisms in speech patterns where city people are direct and to the point. Just as today, we do not exactly understand the perspective of the other, but thats ok too. Not getting hung on one author is the key to the whole thing. Or as us country folk say, not making a mountain out of a mole hill. http://www.g-kexoticfarms.com |
