I agree that either they all totally false or are totally true. I don't think they are anything other. If it's God's word transcribed by prophets then there can be no other way. God would not allow his prophets to get his word wrong. It's divine intervention, which I believe in.
I don't agree. if God inspired the word then It would have to have been true. That's the whole point of the Bible that Christians and Jews believe it is inspired. Not 40 different authors trying to keep some jewish people in line.
I don't think they were morons, they were hunted down like animals. Eventually they were going to get caught.
You do understand that Jesus had to die for sins, right? I mean that's what the gospels are all about. He let Pilate judge him. There was no value in being a martyr following Christ except to be called a saint by the Early Church.
Isaiah 53.5: But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.
