I have read the Bible through its entirety several times. Unlike some others I do not claim to be an expert or "know" what it teaches anymore than the next guy who has read the book.
Yes I know it tells you it can be confusing for some people.
I am actually in awe and impressed that this man has such a direct pipeline to God.
I will takew it this is just another stab at denying Christ.
As far as monotheism and pantheism mixing it is all through the Bible.
True and it is condemned
Lets take a look at Genesis.
And the Gods created man. Yes the word is Elohim in Hebrew. Elohim is a masculine pural of a feminine noun. Essentially if we were to literally translate the passage it would be gods. This is not contended in scholastic circles.
First mention of the Trinity, man is a plural creation too. Not that hrad to grasp the concept. There are a plethora of other passages that make it clear there is only one God as well as many other passages the show the Trinity.
cheap shots at my intelligence and ability to understand the Bible.
Never addressed your intelligence, I stand by the part you have no clue about the bible.
It seems to me like someone is getting a little upset that I am not one of your "sheep" aimlessly following every word you say.

Please feel free to dazzle me with your biblical brilliance and make an ass out of me.
Why wouls any just God allow first born BABIES to be sacrificed based on the actions of one man?
Sin caused it, it is not a matter of God allowing.
How is it acceptable to completely slaughter every man, woman, child and beast that stands in your way to the Holy Land which was "given" to the Israelites by God?
Gene pool problem
What about the story where a man offers and allows his dauhter to be raped rather than offend his angelic guests. I would have to reread and find this exact spot but its in the early parts of Old Testament.
The man is Lot and it is th story of Sodom and Gomorrah and you left out the part about the Angels providing protection and it no happening.
God repeatedly threatens the Jews with terrible things if they turn to other gods.
How could a God be jealous?
Did you really just ask that after just getting finished telling us you have read that thing several times?
It may surprise many that the Koran teaches Jesus was a prophet.
The Bible says he is God choose which ever you wish to believe it makes no never mind to me.
The Koran has the sroty of the nstivity etc etc.
copies alot of bible stories, that is to be expected from something thgat came along 600 years after the fact.
If Christians want to convert then they best know what they are facing and demonstrate the good natured disposition of Americans rather than reinforcing the LIES of the BEARDED FOOLS who tell their people we are Devils.
