Your argument is that "I think I'm superior" because I assume things, that must be the most feeble argument I've heard.

Please come up with something worth arguing instead of using the
"Ad Hominem Fallacy: This fallacy involves attacking" attacking the person making the argument rather than addressing the argument itself. "

Are you upset because I don't agree with you? Well too bad.
Deal with it, it's not the first and last time you will disagree with someone.

Now, you are telling me that you can read in Greek and Hebrew. I think thats an awesome skill to have. Good for you. I know without a doubt that you are an intelligent person but just because you have witts, doesn't mean you understand what the scriptures are communicating.

I hope one day I get the opportunity to learn hebrew or greek or even both, so I dig deeper into the knowledge of Christ.

Just because you can read and understand the surface level (the visible part) in a language doesn't mean you understood the deep structure of what the text is communicating which can be the "intent, meaning, or semantics".

You are what the bible would call spiritually blind. You don't understand although you can clearly read and hear what the bible is communicating, you fail to grasp the meaning.

"Hear this, you foolish and senseless people, who have eyes but do not see, who have ears but do not hear:" Jeremiah 5:21

In linguistics :
Surface Structure: How a sentence looks or sounds.
Deep Structure: The underlying meaning or representation of a sentence.

This is the beauty of language, that it's not just about the constituent parts that forms a sentece what it is about, its the deep structure, it's semantic purposes, being able to understand the correct meaning to take action on the given instruction is what matters.

"This is the beauty of language. It's not just about the constituent parts that form a sentence. Instead, it's about the deep structure and its semantic purposes. Understanding the true meaning, so we can act on a given instruction, is what truly matters."

The medium doesn't matter, if you can get the message across via sound, code, text, images, binary, signals the surface level structure is secondary. What matters is effectively imparting the intended message to the recepient.

If the bible was full of contradictions you would have named one, not just stated it blankly. Where is your evidence?

Just to touch on the word faith, I as a Christian don't blindly misplace my faith.
I truly beleive that God spoke these words, that they are the Truth.

Romans statse that Faith comes from hearing and hearing the word of God.
See that's what you and other individuals including some christians fail to realize. Faith is not blindly beliving in something, it's actually the opposite of that. Faith is believeing in the words of Christ.

Faith literally means decree. So if I have faith, it means I have believed the decree that the Bible has given us because it's sound and truth.

"Romans 10:17 In-Context
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God"

Yes faith "decree" comes from hearing the word of God.

Hebrews 11:3 King James Version (KJV)
Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

This is TRUE, the bible is telling us that the worlds were not created by matter, instead they were created by his word which you can think of as computer CODE which are like instructions to do things perfectly in Christ( TRUTH).

You can think of his word as the perfect instructions to make the computer code compile. Why and how did his word create the universe? Because his word has perfect logic in it.

" In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.""

This clearly says that "LOGOS" aka LOGIC, aka REASON, ACCOUNT, SPEECH created the universe and "WITHOUT" LOGOS was not anything made that has been made.

I know you've read and heard about Jesus but what do you know about the
"Unknown God,"The Image of the Invisibe","The Lamb of God","The Gate" ,"The Bread of Life", "The Truth, the Way, The Life"?
