If you don't want to believe in the Bible, that's great. But I still don't understand how you can reject all the various parts of the Bible that say all non-Christians are going to suffer eternal punishment, yet accept the equally ridiculous claims in it that say Jesus is the son of God. Which parts do you think are fiction, and which parts are so undeniably true that to reject them would be unthinkable? Would you care to enlighten me?
Well, this Bible I have doesn't even have a 2 Thessalonians 18. It ends with 2 Thessalonians 2:17 (...comfort your hearts and give up strength in every good thing you do and say.)
2 Thessalonians 1:18 and 3:18, don't exist.


1 Thessalonian 2:18 is "We wanted very much to come, and I, Paul, tried again and again, but Satan prevented us."

Again, I'm not sure what types of Bibles everyone's reading with all these extra words, The King James Bible, or something?
