Christian Unity?

[rexico]

It wasn’t until the late 4th century that councils decided what should be in the Bible. There are many historical writings from the first century that were not deemed to be inspired. In other words scripture doesn’t mention what should be included in scripture so it takes tradition to arrive at scripture.

This a perfect example,"4th century councils decided what should be in the Bible". "Many historical writings from the first century were not deemed to be inspired". Is it bothersome to you that the content of the Bible was chosen by men? Men that didn't know about germs, or where the sun went at night? This same mind set, jailed Galileo for writing that the earth orbited the sun.

Rexico, if you don’t mind, I will start a new post and then answer your question just to keep from de-railing this conversation…..

It doesn't bother me that the content in the bible was chosen by men that had been taught first hand by those that were in direct contact with what Christ taught, and the many letters written by the apostles to the believers in many regions, yet the BS that you used in your ending bear no relevance in choosing the content in the bible.

Think of the many things you are ignorant of, yet you try to cast judgement on others without taking the time to read what you have been offered.

Here is an example of your "strife" we have been talking about. Making up things like they didn't know where the sun went at night or germs? Really rex? :) ridiculous assertion my friend

Just giving you a heads up, rex will not be replying to your post or any other, though I did gave him plenty of chances to amend his ways, and I pray that now we can have some sensible conversations without meaningless replies.
Thank you for your understanding.
