It should be seen in the same light as all other mythology systems. Just because I don't believe in Zeus doesn't mean I can't get valuable insight into the human condition from reading Greek myths.<br><b>References : </b><br> It’s an interesting collection of ancient literature.

It changes with times and cultures. The mind or heart is timeless as man thinks, feels and reacts in the same way, no matter what time it is. There is a war going on in your mind. It is for who you are. Are you one who chooses to have the thoughts of God, which are higher and quality thoughts, or the mind of Satan, lower and debase thoughts. Thoughts are like seeds in the mind which will grow in the fertile soil there. Actions are the plant of that thought or seed. The fruit of the plant will be sweet or bitter depending on what the seed of thought is. How does one know the mind of God? Can man think so high? Not according to God who say "My thoughts are higher than your thoughts and your ways are not my ways". Just as a parents thoughts are higher than the little child who can not know the whole picture of why and how. The Bible gives us the thoughts of God and, as with any good king that cares for his people, the Bible gives us how to please God and what displeases the King. You ask is the Bible relevant. Any king will judge by the law, but if we do not know the law, then we do not know how to live. The Bible agrees with the evidence written in Creation. With Creation, the Bible is two witnesses that show God and Satan and give us that fact so plain that God said there is no excuse. But man ignores how perfectly is Creation and how impossible the perfection and so discounts the relevance of Scripture. But, truth be known, they choose to ignore because they do not want to submit to God way of thinking. But, judgment day is coming and the Word of God will be placed in the balance like the mark on the wall at an amusement park to see if we are tall enough to ride the ride. The Bible is the standard, the rule by which we will be judged. So I ask you. Is the Bible relevant today?<br><b>References : </b><br> The Bible is not about the physical world.

So I ask you. Is the Bible relevant today?

All the laws of the land (the US and most countries) derive from it. 2.) It prescribes the most efficient, right way to live 3.) If everybody lived by the Golden Rule, the world would be a much better place. 4.) It teaches that marrying a first cousin is wrong. This was before the study of genetics became advanced. 5. ) It teaches that life is sacred. This is RELEVANT to the abortion issue. 6.) It frowns on divorce. This occurs in 50% of the marriages. It gives instructions to both husbands and wives to prevent such. 7.) It's teachings on violence if followed would make a more peaceful society. 8.) It's teachings on reverence for established authority. 9.) It teaches God establishes rulers and can remove them if He wishes. This should sober them up. 10.) Because of Christianity many hospitals, churches, and schools were founded and established. Also shelters for the homeless, battered women, etc. There is more. These are just a few principles. I'll let you look up the references. All you need is a Bible with a good Concordance because you said you were in a hurry.<br><b>References : </b><br>I'm a researcher The Bible is relevant in many ways:

Sounds more like the teacher is trying to discredit the bible because the young Christians can't come to a definition over night about the relevancy of the bible. Will the teacher allot the same time to a question on global warming? Recycling? Health care? Or saving the whales?<br><b>References : </b><br> Its relevancy does not come overnight or the night before the homework is due.
