We should never argue over things in the Bible. Sure we may not see everything as someone else, but I believe that God gives us understanding of His Word. There are many things that we may not understand, but God gives us understanding when we need it. God’s Word is true whither we understand it or not.

We must do our best to show that Jesus is real and that He lives with in our heart. Sometimes our actions speak louder that our words. We need to ask ourselves, do others see Christ in us by what we say and what we do?

It is so important to listen to others and not judge them, by what they believe. God is the judge, not us.

When we are asked a question about the Bible, we should respect the person asking the question and answer it as sincere as we can. All the answers are in God’s Word. Sometimes we have to search the scriptures to find the answer.

“Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” Colossians 4:6.

It’s good to discuss the Bible with others, but we should never argue over what it says.
