He was talking to his eleven disciples on top of that mountain in Galilee. Im sure they preached and created more preachers, who created more preachers. But eventually that line would have died out and become inaccurate. So what did they do? They wrote the gospels. "Word of mouth" isn't something I consider a true source.

Therefore, if you believe the bible, you have to believe that God guided man's hand at authoring it. Also, the bible speaks of false prophets that will bring a word that SEEMS LIKE scripture, but is really demonic doctrine formulated by satan himself. If you are not a Christian, then you've chosen to not accept Christ as your savior. That's your choice. But, be very clear about this: The bible says that Jesus is the only way to God. <--------- Those aren't my words. Those are the words of Christ himself. Again, if you don't accept that, that's your choice.

People... People... and their inaccurate interpretations? What about inaccurate translations? What about... alterations? What the bible is today is not what the bible was meant to be. Which is why I said to take it with a grain of salt.

But oh well... Just forget about what i've said.
