Stick to the thread. Can you prove your belief from the Bible. Yes or no?

One example of proving ones faith from the Bible is the use of the cross. Could anyone here prove "by scripture only" that we should use it in our worship?

See first of all you need to have a New World Translation as this is the only true and correct version of the bible. Then you must prove to everyone that there version is not right. 🙂 Also you need to go out and pass out "awakes" or whatever it is.

No where does it say in the scriptures that anyone is to worship the cross or use it in worship of God so put away your Straw man already.

I'll declare where it clarifies that you should NOT make unto thee ~any~ graven images, and you can't get any more Heaven above of an image than a crucifix..

Exodus 20 (King James Version orig. ~only~)

4Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

So are you unable to back up your claim that The Bible itself says "it is all inspired by God" ?
Do you admit your claim is false, or will you just ignore my request for clarification?

The Bible is it's own proof of it's inspiration by God. If you don't see that there is nothing I can do to prove it to you.

Geeez Manny. Do you not read my post at all? If you say yes then your not telling the truth.
All the scriptures I've been posting the last 4 months have been from various Bible translations and not once have I used our Bible.
Pay attention and maybe you'll learn something.

I didn't ask you to prove that it was inspired. I asked you to back up your claim that it claims to be inspired. You clearly can't back up the claim so I will take it that you made it up (or were deliberately lying).

First I don't lie and I'm offended that you are implying that. If you can't get over the insulting trait don't expect me to discuss anything with you.

No or course not. If I could prove it all the logic lovers would follow.

I understand where he is coming from; you and robbie skirt around core issues so much it leaves you open to these accusations.

This is what you said in the Evolution Makes Me Cry thread on the 21 Aug 2010 -

Fab I admit I am not a student of evolution


And this is what you said in your evolution and bats??? thread on the 15 Nov 2009 -

I'm not closed minded and I have studied evolution all my life

They seem a little contradictory to me.
