because you refuse to obey the very first requirement of understanding it
In your worldview, the first requirement would be throwing your brain out of the window. There are contradictions in the multiples versions of the Bible. Think about it, blame it on the various people who wrote the texts if you want but you can't deny reality.

Re: ** FOREknowledge**
By now means post 19th century with the advance of telecommunications. What about the billions others mentionned in Tangle's post?
You make your deity looks cruel.

Re: Foreknowledge and Free Will
I remember Jar mentionning the Nicene Creed many times as the core of his beliefs saying. Maybe you shouldn't accuse him of disbelieving things too quickly.
By the way, let me ask you a question. How is important the suffering, death and resurection of Jesus in you beliefs and more importantly, why?
Does it really change the message of Jesus' teachings? You sound like you want/need Christianity to be special like nothing else. Seriously, who cares if the message is the same as long as it's for the better good?
IMHO, that's where Jar is going at.

Re: Foreknowledge and Free Will
Meaningless? So you just confirmed it, the message doesn't matter for you. You only want it to be special, to be different.

Re: Foreknowledge and Free Will
Jar manages to get his own peculiar meanings out of the Bible, which he aggressively insists are THE only meanings possible
Nice projection there Faith, in 4K definition no less!
I'm can't speak for Jar but from what I read he mostly insist on the basic message of Jesus without the extra stuff added and used only for marketing like miracles and all the supernatural stuff.
