And just how does anyone possible separate God from His word ?
To me that would be like separating man's heart and lungs, from the man...and, the man is still alive ? |

Man is saved by the word of God, not God Himself.
#1.) 1 Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
#2.) James 1:21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. |

| This is the atheism forum. If you think that quoting scripture in here is going to make your point, then you're barking up the wrong tree. |

You may be right.
After all, who would want to gain knowledge from a God who knows everything, both past, present, and future ?
It is more logical to follow man's finite knowledge of things he knows nothing about, right ? |

The problem is that there are a lot of people who don't believe that said God exists and that He has that knowledge.
I'll tell you what: Pray to God for a proof of the Goldbach conjecture or for a proof that P != NP, and post the proof here. That will make a believer out of me. |
