Christian Debate: Why Bible Isn’t Inspired by God?

Christian Debate: Why Bible Isn’t Inspired by God?

Pondering in silent night:

Brothers and sisters, is everybody here? Here’s a question I really can’t figure it out. Today I want to seek your understanding of it.

In 2 Timothy 3:16, Brother Paul said, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God.” I, as well as many brothers and sisters, think that all words in the Bible are given by inspiration of God and they are all God’s words, and we never doubt it. However, recently when I read the Bible, I found some contradictions in it unexpectedly. The Bible says: “Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem” (2 Chronicles 36:9). But it also says: “Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months” (2 Kings 24:8). From the two verses we can see 2 Chronicles says it was at eight that Jehoiachin began to reign while 2 Kings says it was at eighteen. What’s more, 2 Chronicles says he reigned three months and ten days while 2 Kings says he reigned three months. If all the words in the Bible are God’s words and given by inspiration of God, then one thing should be recorded the same, and there should be no contradictions. Why are there different versions of the same thing? I am confused whether or not the Bible is given by inspiration of God now.

Movie Clip (5) - Are the Pastors and Elders of the Religious World Truly Appointed by the Lord?

  God personally gives testimony to everyone He appoints and makes use of. At the very least, they all receive the confirmation of the work of the Holy Spirit, exhibit the fruits of the Holy Spirit's work, and can help God's chosen people receive the provision of life and true shepherding. Because God is righteous and holy, everyone He appoints and uses must accord with God's will. Pastors and elders from the religious world all lack the word of God as testimony, and also lack the confirmation of the work of the Holy Spirit. So how could pastors and elders within the religious world be personally appointed and used by God?

    Since a young age, Cheng Jianguang's parents and teachers taught him that rules such as "Harmoniousness is a treasure, forbearance is a virtue," "Keeping silent on the faults of good friends makes for a long and good friendship," "Though you see wrong, it's best to say little" were the touchstones for maintaining good relationships with other people. He took these lessons to heart, and learned to never offend others in his actions and speech, and to always take care of his relationships with others, earning him the reputation of a "good man" with those around him.

Dear Brothers and Sisters of Loving Stage,

Recently, there’s something I’m not clear on. I have communicated about it with many brothers and sisters, but finally, I didn’t get a positive result. Just when I didn’t know what to do next, a sister recommended your website. She said that while she was surfing online, she saw that your fellowship and answers were very enlightening and contained an insightful view about the Bible in reply to questions from brothers and sisters, and that her questions were also resolved through your website. So, I hope that my questions will also be resolved here.
