What year is this???
This is what I have been hearing a lot of when I try to talk about the Bible and the Bible's principles. (Like the man and woman's roles in marriage, Christ's commandments to us, the relationship of the Bible to "modern day" society, etc). I don't quite get this -- ESPECIALLY from believers. Do you really think that God's word is not as applicable today because it was written "way back when"? Do you really think that the Lord that made everything, and KNOWS everything from yesterday, today, and days to come wrote the Bible and "missed" today's society. Like he couldn't FATHOM what the world was gonna be like in 2006?? The Bible was written to be transparent accross any and EVERY generation and societal change. When the societies thought it no longer applied to them, he showed them quickly that it did (Sodom and Gomora). The Bible gives tells us how to live our lives, and Rev 22:18-19 says "Who adds to word .. will add to plagues, who takes away.. he will take take away gifts".

it is as applicable as when it was first written

I don't think it's so much that it isn't applicable, but more that people don't want to get involved with the controversy of speaking about the Bible. I myself will not speak about the bible nor my spiritual beliefs due to the fact that alot of "passionate" people feel that you HAVE to believe what THEY believe. When reading the bible, I think every person has a different opinion and feels a different way about certain scriptures. But when you have someone telling you that you are wrong, it is discouraging.
