Epiphany Of The Day .001
"We are called to be more Christ-like, not to become God." -JMB
Something I've been working on...when we claim to have all then answers, isn't that saying we're God? Shouldn't God be the only one with all the answers?
If a person claims he/she has all the answers, beware! However, there are answers in the Bible, which can be trusted as a trustworthy source of information.
The Bible does not answer everything we wonder about, but that does not invalidate the answers it does have.
I think it says a lot about the Bible that It doesn't have every possible answer to every possible question! Your comment made me think about this: If it did, then it too would (not that some haven't already practically done this) raised to the same level as God! As one author writes: The Bible is the finger that points to God. We worship/follow what the finger is pointing to, not the finger itself! --Borg

I would agree with this statement!
