yes, the bible is confusing! i find myself pouring over it, but not understanding a single word! i do think the bible is true, and people are wondering, "i wonder what he thinks about today and what people say about him" and i think he tries, but the devil is very strong. He can handle everyones hate for him, but he never stops trying to change hearts. if someone doesn't want to believe in god, chances are that they will go to their grave, not believing in god. i do question some of the things in the bible, but i'm sure it will all make sense if i make it up to heaven. that, or eventually things DO make sense as time goes by and the more i think about it. And yes, the world is getting worse, but this might even be close to when Jesus will come and leave behind those who haven't accepted him. we never know when so that's why we have to live every day like it was the day Jesus was going to come. but seriously, think about it! the world is slowly dying from pollution and people are just getting worse. i won't lie though. if god came today, i would probably be left behind..... living the right way is hard, and i haven't gotten it yet! anyways, great right! i hope the answers come to you soon!
Like I said in your other poem: "I am very happy to see someone else who reads the Bible, and you have proven your self very wise my friend, very wise indeed. for you have took, both testaments and put it into turms we all can understand. I know not what will happen after this life but I do understand God is real and he will end the world someday. Very nice job.
Reading this, I get this tune in my head: 'What if God was one of us?' (the Sheryl Crow version) Many of us own a bible, but how many have attempted to read it? (and the same goes for a lot of other religious writings). When I was very little, I discovered my mum's school bible. I used to think many of the parables were like fairy tales, but then and again fairy tales contain much more of the truth than one would think!
So as I grew older I found out there was a lot of truth in fairy tales, as there is in the Bible, though some parts are very gruesome ... but the same is true about fairy tales.
Should we believe in fairy tales? Yes, we should!
Should we read the Bible or any Holy or spiritual book before discussing or slandering it?
Yes, we should.
Thank you for posting, for we take too much for granted!

the bible has been translated so many times that it can't possibly be completely true. i'm sorry to say and i do believe in jesus and god but the whole bible confuses and contradicts itself. bravo for speaking out!!
