My view of the Bible and Biblical criticism
There is no interest on my part to portray myself as a central figure in my blog, it is Jesus Christ who in various ways, I wish to present and clarify for my readers. But I think it may be of value to the blog's "year of small children," nevertheless, very briefly clarify some statements that may be the reader for the benefit and interest. I will not provide a comprehensive view of each of these points, it is not necessary, I think.
When I read my Bible, I use primarily people of the Bible Swedish translation, and then I read the Bible, I have the following attitude and approach to what these books say to me:
1. It is written in the Bible is true!
It does this example that Jesus walked on top of the water surface without any human aid.
It was an extraordinary miracle that took place there and then on the Sea of Galilee.

Of course, I am convinced the Old Testament supernatural elements, such that it is probably red sea that stood up like a valley so that Moses and an assumed number million Jews could walk dry-shod over the sea bed.
I need not enumerate everything that I believe in in the Bible, but simply said, I believe the entire Bible from cover to cover. I do not doubt anything that book says in other words.

2. I read the book so that it is written!
An interpretation or symbolic interpretation is not necessary for me.
It is written in the Bible means just exactly what the text says.
Of course there are prophecies and secret messages in eg "Revelation" I do not understand, but there is no conclusive profile issues in my faith in God.
These "secrets" will be revealed when the time according to God's agenda are inside.
So, it says that I, as a Christian can talk to God the Father in prayer and expect a constructive and effective answer to my prayer, then it means it also so!

3. Biblical criticism then?
Yes, my research in order to produce the Bible clear veracity for those who do not trust the book's message and content, I've obviously met diametrical opinions on certain issues.
Some claim to have evidence of what the Bible portrays, some claim that have evidence to the contrary to what the Bible portrays. Any of these parties are right.
It is a practical and objective impossibility to both truth and falsehood go hand in hand.

It is a practical and objective impossibility to both truth and falsehood go hand in hand.
So, in these researches that I made and continuously doing so sets I wonder about why there are voices against what the Bible reproduce, and to various archaeological, scientific so-called evidence put forward claiming that the Bible's content is unreliable and not even True, it has taken place.
For me, as a Christian, it is obvious that God exists and that the Bible states have taken place.
Simply put, I believe the Bible to be inerrant Word of God!
Because God is omniscient, He has all approaches, all thoughts, all the world's knowledge concentrated and completely clear and widespread front of him.
God does not need to think in order to make a decision or know how events will manifest itself in any respect whatsoever in world history, the present or in the future.

Here I quote Professor and author Stefan Einhorn: "We will of course believe in our ability to understand the world around us while we must never lose our humility. We must remember that we have endless expanse left to explore. One can say that if the total truth about everything corresponds to a big city, so the resin so far we have gathered so much knowledge that it would fit in a shoebox in one of the city's closets. "(1) We humans have our borders where our knowledge does not reach the full, there is even the scientific explanation model, NOT proves God inexistens because man figured out how God designed the world. So, God is objective, simply stated. Thus is also the God says objectively.
In other words, the Bible is fully reliable because the central figure is reliable!
So then return to the question of why there are voices that goes against what the Bible explicitly states have taken place.
My very personal theory is that there are motives behind some of these contradictions, which do not want it to be true, because it would be true as the Bible renders, well then there is not God, and then it means astronomical reassessments within the world of science.
Not to say an individual personal decision for or against the God of the Bible.
You can not walk neutral face such a stance!

For is it that science so cocksure sometimes states in its bombastic (2) arguments against the Bible's perspective, then it is not God, then the Bible is a mendacious (3) storybook, then do not apply objective morality, no committal against environmental and God creator, no afterlife.
Here I am open and acknowledge that there are Christians who lied up fantastic stories with scientific baselines and it shall be revealed, of course.
Only for the truth are we able to something, not against the truth, we have no success.
So in conclusion, then, I read the Bible and understand first of all what it says and what it represents, and is in the same position fully convinced about the content fully.
Of course, that means that I'm tied to this world, physical, legal, ethical, moral laws so I can orient myself up everyday to the best of ability.
I'm not leaving reality every morning I start reading my Bible, and overrides my understanding, no way around!
With my five physical senses so I can learn, touch, appreciate, and rejoice in the environment I'm in.
However, not my senses end or limit, so anything outside our intellect is enigmatic and a form of illusion.
No with the help of my five spiritual senses so I can get in touch with the spiritual world where God very much are. Every human being has these spiritual five senses, but some of us have let the mind be a judge so spiritual things do not get a fair chance to make themselves known or experienced, then there are of course those individuals that is primarily engaged in spiritualism, and do not turn to God who is the source of all that is called spirituality.

So, I consider myself to be dependent on my environment, (and especially the God of the Bible) in order to live and continue in the after life to live in God's plan for my life.
I will in the next blog text, the substance " But the Bible was right: If the deluge "
See you there!
