Hebrews 10:16 KJV

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them.

You can buy one book that you can make notes on. It's just a book, it's paper. Christianity is not a religion around a book.

>>529452

I'm against it, while I'm young.

I inherited a family members bible who passed away, I always enjoy coming across a scripture they highlighted or underlined.

>>529452

>having a personal bible with personal notes is degenerate

is this /pol/ autism?

get a cheap one to take notes in, have a nice one as a family heirloom

that being said I knew a youth group leader who threw the Bible around and stepped on it to prove a point that it’s just a bible. yeah I get it, but have some respect dude

>>529546

how much respect do you think a bible (as in the physical book, not the metaphysical concepts of the Word)?

>>529551

You didn't finish your question.

>>529452

t. Muhammadan

>>529566

Muslims don't believe in The Bible at all tho

>>529452

No, it's not. Unless you're blotting out verses that you don't like you're not doing any harm by marking important passages in the text.

>>529567

No, but they hold their book on a pedestal, never allowing it to touch the ground or be marked. It can't be placed on a shelf lower than any other books and it is a literal crime to do so.

Only a Muslim would put wood pulp and ink on a pedestal.

>>529452

I could see this being degenerate or even sinful if you're one of these Baptists who worship their King James Bible.

>>529506

Don't you think your children or grandchildren would enjoy reading their father or grandfather's notes in the margins?

>>529452

>the bible is the sacred word of God

Wrong, protestant.

Only and I mean ONLY Christ Jesus is the word of God, aka the Logos.

The bible is just texts and letters recounting what the Word said and did, written by wise men who had God experiences.

>>529565

I think he accidentally a word or two

>>529452

a symbolic representation of the word of god, translated into your vernacular for convenience, is not literally the word of god you imbecile. One must text mark any tract if they wish to engage with it as fully as they can. THE bible, which is to say the gestalt of all the scriptures, is holy:~a~ bible is only a book–glue and cellulose.

>Republican Christianity

What does this mean

>Only and I mean ONLY Christ Jesus is the word of God, aka the Logos.

1 Peter 1:23-25

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

24For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:

25But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

>>529839

Believing that making notes in a Bible constitutes some form of graffiti against the Word isn't respect, it's veneration. We don't venerate objects and you know it.

>>533007

As far as I know Fermat doesn't have any theological works. Are you thinking of Pascal? Or is this a reference to his "last theorem"

>>533007

What do you disagree on Rashi with? Can you even read Rashi's script?

muslim tier autism.

God would rather you read the Bible and study it than care about the Bible you have looking nice

>>529452

My RCIA teacher said he would be dissatisfied if our Bibles weren't written up all over by the end of the program, but that was a study Bible anyways.

>>529452

Do you guys just look for things to feel bad about? Things to add to the law?

>>529506

I used to be this way, then I realized that certain passages in books begs to be underlined. I usually underline lightly in pencil, but I still do it.

>>529845

Probably some type of satanic philosemitism pretending to be Christianity.

>>529506

>That said, I never write in books full-stop. I have an almost fetishised belief that books are so precious, so valuable, and something you pass on to the next generation, that marking them up is just not something I can ever do, even if they are trashy old novels or the like.

I have a somewhat conflicted view on this. On one hand I'm obsessed with preservation and keeping media in the state they were intended to be in. On the other hand, personal notes can add a lot of character to a book, without those notes it's not different from any other copy. Does anyone have an idea how to take notes in a non-destructive way?

>>533679

Paperclip your notes to the page or write gently in pencil

>>529452

>Is highlighting or even underlining in pen verses the most degenerate act you can commit?

Reading them is.
