Dear eiko ,

Thankyou for you email...this email is more clear to me.

how are you first of all?

of course,fukuoka is quite far from fukushima and sendai area so i am convinced you are not affected by the recent large earthquake there.

Its terrible news and im very sorry for those of whom it affects.

It really shows the words of Jesuss presence of the conclusion of the system of things to be true..at matthew 24 and at Luke 21 jesus said that great earthquakes would be one of the signs of the "lastdays" (2 tim 3:1)

today we surely see many earthquakes in one place after another as well as all the signs that jesus said would mark the conclusion of the sytem of things.

Anyway, as for your previous statement in your previous email about the Greek scriptures ,the Hebrew scriptures and also newer writings published after the holy scriptures were written, the Hebrew scriptures CAN be sometimes vague or difficult to understand fully.

As you mentioned,Bible books such as Jeremiah and Isaiah to name just 2 are not always easy to fully grasp in our minds.

These books were written by hebrew prophets around 800BCE to around 500BCE to warn Israel to turn back from their bad ways hat God disapproved of.

They also give glimpses of future happenings such as in Isaiah 65...they show the messiahs rule and they also show that jerusalem and babylon would both be destroyed.

These book and most of the other hebrew scriptures served there purpose at the time of the prophets and for a few centuries after their writings.

This information in the hebrew scriptures are no specifically relevant for a christian today.

As roman 15:4 mentions "all scripture written aforetime were written for our instruction"

the hebrew scriptures are very useful to us today to learn from past mistakes of Gods people and how God viewed various acts of the people back then...the scriptures help us to know what god likes and what he doesnt like.

As for the Greek scriptures,these were instructions to Christians not to jews anymore.

Yes ,you are right,some bible books in the christian greek scriptures are fairly concise and do not tell us everything that happened back in the first century.

However, as John 25:21 mentions, there were countless of thing Jesus did and said when he was on earth which are not recorded in the holy scriptures...Jehovah the author of the Bible saw that what is written already in the Bible was sufficient for us humans....he saw that we didnt need more than what is written...he saw that we had everything written down that would help us serve him properly even though being imperfect humans.

The book of Acts is concise yet helps us to understand where the christians came from ,what their assignment was and the troubles they faced in carrying it out....we today can be comforted by such scriptures since they help us to understand what our work today is too and how to face challenges without dying spiritually.

Other Books written by other authors after the Holy Bible had been completed were normally mere copies,reviews,discussions,summarries,theories,hypothesis of the original Bible.

books today such as "the da vinci code" have theories of Humans and not of God...nothing is based on any evidence,neither solid nor weak...

many other books sincerely written to aid the bible and to help sincere seekers of truth of godly truth,while sincere are NOT additional or supplementary information to the bible..

Books written by Jehovahs witnesses for example do not claim to be divine or holy....they are written to help and aid sincere people to understand what is already written in the original bible given only by GOD JEHOVAH.

Revelation warned at Revelation 22:18 that those who take way or add from what has already been written from the holy scriptures will face Jehovahs anger.

God will not allow the bible to be completly changed...there will always be bibles that show Gods personal name and that show truth right down to the end and those that try to change it will be destroyed at his own appointed time.

Anyway,ALL scriptures ARE inspired by God and beneficial for teaching".. (2 timothy 3:16<17)

We both do well to use the Bible and sincere bible aids only to search for truthful information about jehovahs ways and purposes.


anyway,as for today ,im fine,please let me know how you are..

please email me what you think and any other questions

until then takecare

Carlos
