I don’t know much about the Bible but it strikes me as a pretty poor citation for anything.
It’s a great citation for what Jesus Christ was credited as saying in the Bible.
“Was credited as saying.”
Indeed.
Yeah, but the Bible is the Christian holy book, so when talking about what Christians believe that Jesus said, it’s a great citation.
For those that read it, you’re probably right.
Even most Christians that haven’t read the Bible will probably tell you that they believe in the Bible, so I think it’s fair to bring it up when talking about what Christians believe or claim they believe.
