A question about God & the Bible?
I let me say first and foremost, I only want to be educated on my question. I don't want anyone flamed, or any fighting. I will delete this thread at the first sign of it. I just simply need some clarification.
I believe in God, Allah, or whatever you want to call the almighty entity that created the universe. I don't believe in everything the bible says. In the last few years I've come to believe that IMO the bible was written by men, for men. It's not IMO, the "word of God", but the words of mortal men, with no divine guidance.
Now, my question is this. What am I? I’m not a Christian, because I don’t believe in the bible and so many things that Christians believe in. Christians won't accept my views on this issue, and Atheists will disagree that there is a God at all. Is there a term/name for what I am and believe in?
I'm feeling very confused by my feelings, but very steadfast in them. I believe that there is a God, and that some things are definitely not right in his/her eyes, but I think the bible and much of what it contains is simply the writings of mortal men.

okay you are a creation of God read genesis
well we beleive that ounce you are saved (ask jesus to come in your heart) you are saved forever and go to heaven. but if you lie doent mean you are not still saved you must ask jesus to forgive you. jesus died on the cross for our sins so we may be forgiven (watch the passion of the crist). people such a disipoles wrote the bible. there is an all might god.
you may have heard or god, jesus, and the holy spirit 3 diffrent god's but they arent. they are one person well think of a 3 leave clover god is one leaf and jesus is an other and the holy spirit is the third, it's all connected on the clover so it is one.

Yes I understand your concept, I just don't believe in it. :)
