3 Nephi is not the original term. The phrase "The Book of Nephi" is the actual title of the fifth Gospel.

Still lacks Enoch.

>>24665047
Enoch is basically an entire Bible unto itself. Combining it into one volume would make it insanely unwieldy.

Could be a good abridgment a la Libro de Mormón. Have you read the inspired version?

It's the same price as the edition without the Apocrypha so why not buy the longer version?

For me it's the KJV, NASB, or ESV.

Enoch is 130 pages in my kindle. The Bible is 3000. I don't think it's that much, considering thay we would probably gdt to 4000 or 5000 with the book of mormon + apocrypha.

Schizo thread.

>>24665195
It's some kind of insane obsessed schizo who spams threads and seemingly replies to himself to push his crackpot theory of the Book of Mormon being written about Ethiopians. I hope he gets a tripcode so I can filter him, or fucks off to /x/ to be with his kind, or gets hooked on talking to chatGPT and leaves us real people alone.

>>24665005 (OP)
This is intended as a question for the deep devoted Christians in this thread:

You claimed that you believe in the bible and only in the bible, right?
If so, how do you deceide which texts belongs into the Holy Book and which not?
I mean, there are no rules or paragraphes about this question in the book itself.

>>24665781
>In this book, I have presented eighty reasons to prove that the Book of Mormon is that of the history of Eritrea and Ethiopia, and its prophecies encompass the entire continent of Africa and the black race in general. I have also successfully identified who the authentic Israelites are in the world. The Book of Mormon contains the ultimate revelations the world has been waiting for many centuries. Its prophecies are incredibly very accurate and reveal the ultimate truths that were hidden from mankind for many centuries.

>>24665770

It's fiction.

That's only protestants. Idk how they claim to know which books are canonical though

>>24665199
>someone can't possibly have interesting thoughts
>it must be false

The Holy Bible is not infallible but I do believe it is the inspired word of God.

>>24665846
Inspiration is the key to understanding the scriptures. The spirit of God is what guides you to read it, when you find a little bit of brilliance. you want more!

>>24665851
That's a very Mormon-coded thing to say.

Christians claim that scriptures are false all the time though, like the gospel of judas. Clearly some scriptures are sacred and some aren't, but what criteria do protestants use to distinguish them

>>24665770
>>24665841
Honestly... If I imagine being a Christian who believes in the Bible exclusively, any possible criticism of the Bible becomes extremely important to me.

I mean, maybe the Bible is the perfect word of God, but the process of writing and canonizing it was done by fallible humans.

So, in order to be consistent with my own ideology, I need to extent the perfectly not just to the text but to the "tradition of transition", too.
So, at least some conciles must be perfect when they deceide what cames into the Bible and what they left out. In the case I doubt this, the perfect, infallible word of God becomes merely guesswork since I no longer know for sure whether a certain vers belongs in the canon or not.

>>24665846

In this case, I have another objection to rise.

The Bible is a message from God containing divine wisdom, right?

If this is the case, why is this book so widely unphilosophical? I mean, large parts lack propositions like "Truth means to be in Correspondence with Reality" or "Ethical Good is what God has commanded", or something like that. I know it is not supposed to be such a book. Yet, the stories provided lack any clarification. It gets even worse when considering how the wisdom is transmitted: Analogies, stories, and things that happened.

>>24666090
>>24665870
John 21:25:
>And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

Did God allow some stories about Jesus to be forgotten on purpose?

The Book of Mormon is insane cult nonsense, so is the Nation of Islam. Both have a weird sci fi tinge as well. The Bible is something else entirely.
