Very amazing indeed. The Bible is not word of God but inspired words
of God.
But why God inspired a writer to write 5000 dead and another writer to
write 4000 dead?
May be that also happen to Jesus, sometime God inspired someone to
write Jesus is Son of Man, another writer was inspired by God to write
Jesus is Son of God and God inspired someone to write in the bible
Jesus is God.
Is that very confusing???
HD, Does God inspired something else from the following:
28One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating.
Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of
all the commandments, which is the most important?"
29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel,
the Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] 30Love the Lord your God with
all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with
all your strength.'[b] 31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as
yourself.'[c]There is no commandment greater than these."
32"Well said, teacher," the man replied. "You are right in saying that
God is one and there is no other but him. 33To love him with all your
heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to
love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt
offerings and sacrifices."
Did God inspired Trinity to you HD?
