La palabra de Dios es diferente a las sagradas escrituras

En el Sermón del Monte, Jesús hace diferencia entre lo que dice LA TORÁ Y LO QUE DEMANDA DIOS. Por otra parte el escritor a los Hebreos dice: “Muchas veces y de muchos modos habló Dios en el pasado a nuestros Padres por medio de los Profetas;” (Hebreos 1:1-2). Asi que, tanto la Palabra de Dios, como La Torá, los Profetas los Salmos, y la Biblia son algo distinto. La Biblia Incluye todas las diferentes secciones. Ella contiene la Palabra de Dios.
