In Christianity, when they say the Bible was written by people but 'inspired by God'...?

Inspired means God has spoken to those He could TRUST to write His Holy Words in His Holy book, and not change them to their own liking but to keep them INTACT. He can talk to us within without someone else hearing his words, but the individual God is communicating with almost aways has to be righteous, have no sin, or pretty close to none, and wanting to know Him.

God spoke to His trusted prophets ...some one who is righteous not living in sin. And most of all when all the requirements are met, as in we are "holy" God is more than willing to talk to us or inspire us. If you meet all these requirements....be still and be quiet, read the word of God, Trust and obey and He will Make contact.

And when He does, it might be little things at first, but in time He will build upon it, and is it Righteous communication? If it is, It is God communicating because He is With out sin and we need to strive to be also in order to worship and hear His loving voice, either verbally, or in our hearts and even in our thoughts.

See 2 Timothy 3:16 This is God's way of claiming authorship of the Bible.

Inspiration really comes from education. Some topics can seem to open the doors into a whole new world and excite you to know more.

What better way to be inspired than to realize one day that a supreme being exists and that he claims you as his own flesh-and-blood child and has invited you into his home (with, by the way, the perk of never dying)?

Now that's inspiring, and the Bible is unique in that all of the authors who contributed their writings believed this one thing even though the writings are spread out over 4000 years and many different ethnic groups.

The Bible has many errors in it. Farrel Till has listed some 50,000 errors in the Bible. Though the Bible may originally have been inspired by God, it has been corrupted many many times. This is why I read the Bible out of curiosity; nothing more.

Thomas Jefferson has stated that the additions composed by St. Paul were absolutely contradictory to what the Messiah said. This why he made the Jeffersonian Bible. I don't think that the Song of Songs was ever inspired by God, nor was the Book of Esther. These compositions are so non-divine!

Again, who could believe that David committed adultery, and who ever would like to read that Lot had sexual intercourse with his own daughters?? That's totally unacceptable.

It took God 40 days to write Ten Commandments. Do you realize how long it would take him to write the entire bible. Hell he would still be in Genesis. He just was the inspiration for others who just made up what they liked. Like having Joshua make the sun stand still and the like. No where in the Bible does it say God wrote or inspired the Bible.

Hisszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

we gained't. besides the undeniable fact that, God can. faith is wish for the failings no longer seen, the data of issues to come lower back. The bible is time-honored by potential of religion, then experiencing data of that understanding. certainly one of those thought isn't uncommon. We prepare faith each minute of our lives. We arise waiting for our ft to artwork, our espresso to perk and the electrical powered energy to perk it to no longer by surprise give up, on no account to be seen lower back. spectacular? What different artwork can declare it does precisely because it says it is going to do, if its observed---decrease than any condition, nationality, economic status, male or lady, age or social concern for over 10,000 years? there is too many Christians who've found out that God's observe extremely does face as much as the try of time. No guy's observe can ever try this. the large Wall of China, the ruins of the Mayans, Greeks, even the pyramids---all testaments of guy's "greatness"--can not face as much as the bible's undying grant of eternal love. it won't in any respect crumple. this is a needed human perception, faith. God shines down on us daily, regardless of if we see Him or no longer, regardless of if we get exhilaration from the understanding of His Presence or no longer. positioned the bible's precepts in prepare then try proving it incorrect. that is somewhat the only user-friendly thank you to make sure.

Inspiring [as in the Inspired Word of God] is the act of revealing or disclosing.

Something revealed, especially a dramatic disclosure of something not previously known or realized.

A manifestation of divine will or truth.

Back in the Bible days Jesus spoke OUT LOUD to some people, to others He spoke in a still small voice. I am sure it was both methods He used, as He dealt with many men for them to write His Words out for Him.

What one has to realize is that the author was ACTUALLY Jesus. The men who wrote the Bible out onto tablets & scrolls, merely took dictiation.

Did this explain it to you better dear?

Blessings & Peace,

Inspire like this:

When Luke, the one of the Gospel writter wrote down his 'wisdom' from God, actually, he was never heard about Jesus before. He just write down what God said unto his mind. Then, he came to the first Christians, and show what he was written, and they became confused, coz Luke wasn't a Jews, he was Greek. That's inspire!

not to rock the boat or get alot of hate messagese but the bible itself is a big conspiracy. there are many books that were never added to the bible and man was the one who decided what was going to be put together. i just make sure that my personal relationship with god is secure. he has yet to give me more than i can handle so i must be doing something right without reading the bible. and before all of you bible thumpers get on my case. i am familiar with the bible i just choose to no longer read its pages based on the questions circling from how its information was handled.

The AUTHOR of a publication does not necessarily have to TYPE it.

Almighty God was the Author of the Bible. 40 simple men wrote it down.

Example; When Daniel wrote his , he did not know what he was writing. Or what it was about. And the angel told him to seal it up.

only now, in this " time of the end" are those prophecies coming clear

According to the original text it means that God literally told them what to write.

Consider this: if the Bible were easy to disprove---the many unbelieving critics would have washed it away centuries ago.

What makes the Bible stay alive in the skeptical culture of today's world? Superstition?---they are still regarded as superstition. It is still noted as historically accurate on many accounts. What is it, that makes the Bible not just go away or be relegated by the masses to the consigns of mythology?
