Again, my question: Do you believe that anyone, anywhere, who just had a Bible, and no other literature, could understand it and be saved?
May I please have a yes or no answer>

Is God's mercy for everyone who will desire his mercy and that will do his will?. And do we not learn of God's will through study of the Bible?
The Bible says study to show thy self approved, rightly deviding the word of God.
Was God's revelation completed once and for all and given to us in the Bible or do you think new revelations are being made and are on going.
I still do not have an answer to my question " Do you believe that anyone , anywhere,who just had a Bible, and no other litature, could understand it and be saved?"
11 Timothy 3 v 16 says : "All scripture is fiven by inspiration ( every scripture inspired)of God, and is profitable for doctrine,for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
v17 That the man of God may be perfect(complete), throughly furnished unto all good works.
John 2 v27: But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him Are we being told here that the Holy Spirit will teach us all things?

The complete scripture in Matt 11 v27
Jesus is speaking and says " All things are delivered unto me(meaning Jesus) of my father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father, neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he (meaning the Son) to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
v28: Come unto me (me, Jesus) ALL YE ( written to everyone) that labour and are heavy laden and I ( the I being Jesus) and I will give you rest"
Is the Son not revealed to all through the Holy Scriptures ( the Bible) since according to your reply ( the Bible was written for all)?

Could anyone, anywhere, who had only the Bible , and no ther litature
understand it and be saved?
Rev 22 verse 19, says "And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things that are written in this book".
To me, this scripture says that the word of God as Written in the Bible is sufficient for salvation and no other words should be added to or taken from the word of God.
11Tim: 3 v15,16,17
And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16: All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
If the scriptures be true, which i believe they are, one could be saved with reading and obeying the Bible only and no other litature would be necessary. Please, may i hear your comments on the above .

To Yeru -- Re: Romans 10:13

hi, yeru.. you made the point a while back to fredhall that romans 10:13 in the context of romans 10:9-13 proved that yahweh = jesus, because romans 10:13 quotes joel who is speaking about yahweh.

this rattled me -- being a monotheist all my life.

could it be true?

King James version says " he who believes and is baptized shall be saved. Are you only allowed to read the one translation?
