Comment on If God truly is ‘all-powerful’ and ‘omnipotent,’ then Jesus dying wasn’t the only way to ‘save us.’”

Never understood how someone decided in the last 5 centuries that a book isn’t the word of God and hence should be removed.

Arbitrary decisions have been made for much longer than 5 centuries about which books are in and out of the bible, and how to change the text to suit the narrative and culture of the day

if there is a God how can a person understand it’s mind?

That’s kinda the point. It all comes down to what “feels right” for each person, not what’s proven to be true. How do we know any interpretation is correct, and we know what’s actually in “God’s mind”? For all we know, no interpretation is correct and we all have it wrong.
