The Bible is full of actual events that happened in ancient times and several archaeological findings from ancient times have shown that the Bible recorded events accurately. They are not fables and can be taken literally in many cases, while in other cases God uses figurative language to give us his message--the book of Revelation being a perfect example. Man is fallible, but God's word is inerrant. God has shown time and time again that he can use imperfect man to bring about his perfect will and the Bible is just one example of that. But since your heart is hardened against God, you are blinded to his truth and to his accomplishments.

Lord of the Gay, The bible was made by man to convey common fables so that people without an imagination would understand. So it would not be lost over the years. It is not to be taken litteral. This is because man, who is fallible wrote it! Ummm… Lord of the Gay, The bible was made by man to convey common fables so that people without an imagination would understand.

As I've said before on my blog, Hindus claim they believe in one god, but also claim there are many deities as if the two ideas are separate or different. By making the statement that there is one god but several deities, Hindus contradict themselves. "Deity" is another word for "god", so when Hindus say there are many deities, it is the same as saying there are many gods. For some reason, they don't understand this. The God of the Bible--Jehovah, or Yahweh--is in no way, shape, or form the same as Allah or Krishna. Maybe you should read the Bible and compare it with the Koran and Hindu scripture. These gods don't have the same character as Jehovah and are impersonal and indifferent toward their followers whereas Jehovah is very personal and has an ongoing relationship with his followers, having two-way communication with believers as individuals and as a group. A guru is not just simply a teacher according to Hindu doctrine. They promote themselves as demigods, being a step above humans. Although Christianity has religious leaders who try to promote themselves in the same way, the true doctrines of the Bible teach that no pastor/preacher/teacher is superior to anyone else in God's church. Satyabrata,

I appriciate ur effort but not ur knowledge.so i think a small book called "The Science of Self- realisation",can give u better idea of what Hindusim all about.well this book is available in any ISKCON temple,all arround the world. Trust me, there is one god in this world &we all are his creation.Some call him Allaha,some God & some call him Krishna. One more thing there is a teacher for everything.Without a teacher how u learn to pray God in ur church or Namaj at Masjid .So the teacher who teaches how to pray infront of God is ur Guru.So there is no harm of having a guru in life. May God Bless you. Hi, Harry.

You make a good point about Vatican City. However, Revelation 18 talks about merchants weeping over the city because they will no longer be able to go to the city to buy all types of goods to sell on the world market. It lists all the merchandise that is sold to merchants in the city. Based on this description, it would have to be the whole city of Rome that burns since Vatican City itself is not a trade center. The Bible doesn't necessarily point to the prince of Asturias as the man of sin. The Bible never points to a specific descendant of the caesars as the Antichrist. No one will know who the Antichrist is until he appears in the temple of God to exalt himself as God, according to 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8. I don't believe it's wise to try to point out a specific individual as being the Antichrist because no one except God at this time really knows who he will be. There are many antichrists roaming the world, but we don't know who the Antichrist is. As for the email question, I've elected not to make anyone submit their email if they choose not to. As far as I know, email addresses are not displayed, only a person's submitted website address shows when you mouseover their name when they comment. Jeff,

Vatican City is recognized as a "City". So the Bible might be saying he just blows the Catholic Church leaders up in there little city. I just can't picture all of Rome being blown up as a revived Roman Empire would need Rome as symbolism of who they are. Take a look at the Prince of Asturias Felipe "the Handsome Prince". The Bible points to him as the Man of Sin. Hes a descendant of the Julio-Claudian dynasty and the bible says the son of perdition is a descendant of these Caesers. By the way does it publish your email if you submit it? Hi, I just wanted to say that its possible that all of Rome will not have to be destroyed. Vatican City is recognized as a “City”.
