The Bible is under severe attack in today’s world. What better way to undermine our belief in Scripture than to produce extra books, outside of the Bible, claiming that their omission from the Bible was merely due to fourth-century politics.
Since the Bible has been copied and translated so many times, can we really trust that we have the words of the authors? Critics like to talk about the variants, but they have never been able to demonstrate that these variants have had any impact on any biblical doctrines.
As Christians, we need to have the utmost integrity in all areas and be careful not to be a stumbling block to a fellow Christian. We should make every effort to live at peace with others (Romans 12:18). This does not mean, however, we will never offend a fellow Christian.
Built into “tolerance” is the concept that truth is determined by each individual, not by God. This has led many people to conclude that making judgments on anyone (especially coming from Christians) is wrong because the Bible says ”judge not” (Matthew 7:1).
Many theologians deny that Genesis 3 teaches the doctrine of the Fall and argue it is not original to the text but something that has been forced upon it.
Interpreting Scriptures is not a free-for-all. We must always strive to interpret the words as God intended.
