earlier today, i was debating with another cber about the bible. she seemed to believe that jesus walked the earth, but she doesn't believe in god, nor any of the historical stories in the bible, such as the flood that god sent to rid the world of all evil.
i believe in god, as well as the stories in the bible. i just think that over the many years people have made the stories into fairytales. perhaps they overdid it on the describing details by using dramatic hyperboles. people are the ones that leave us wondering about our faith, not god. i believe that they all happened the original way that god planned them, but there isn't very much proof anymore because of people. although, god could also be testing our faithfulnes toward him being in control. what do you think? |

Jewish people believe that Jesus was a prophet, but not the son of God. The foundation of Judiasm is "the lord our god is one," so really, how could he be in the eyes of Jews? Many Jews (non-Orthodox) believe that the stories in the bible are supposed to be valued for their message, and not to be taken as fact. They're just stories that teach lessons.
