    Any regrets

    I would like to comment on those who would deem they can live with Hell. Your preconception of Hell is very poor. Living and Hell do not walk hand in hand because Hell is death. Jesus commonly described it as having weeping and gnashing of teeth. The best description I've heard of "gnashing...

    Continuation of Noah discussion

    Well you guys are full of sketicism on how to fit some animals on a boat for a year... let me ask some questions of my own, and please realise that I often use "evolve" in a broader term than bio-evolution. How could the complexities and perfections (design) of the eye evolve (randomly)? How...

    Why were we created?

    I will attempt to let scripture answer itself for these questions: Romans 6:23a| For the wages of sin is death... It is an eternal law that sin must be punished. Our earthly laws require punishment for crime and they are a reflection of the devine moral law. Romans 9:18-20 | Therefore...

    Scientology

    Well Im thoroughly frustrated because I was in the church library and was going to take out Larson's book of cults (which would clearly lay out scientology and its faults), but alas, I simply photocopied the particular section I needed. From what I read, scientology is trying to mush Lewis...

    Why were we created?

    First, God never distanced from man, man distanced from God. God is holy and perfect and cannot have sin in His presence. Can darkness and light mix? So when man fell into sin, God had no alternative but to cast them out, just like light has no alternative but to push dark out. Second, He...

    Continuation of Noah discussion

    Eon, answer the arguments yourself. You can't just say "They were dismissed." Who dismissed them? I'm sure everyone has dismissed someone's theory at some point. The only difference is that when evolutionary theories are "dismissed" it's the "dismisser" with the "problem." (yay for quotation...

    Continuation of Noah discussion

    Oh goodie, my two best buddies for the other side of the fence. I'll try not to get sarcastic but... Whales on the ark Jim? Comon, Noah obviously did not need to take water animals, or insects or perhaps even amphibions. As for Kinds: You've seen horses bred and dogs bred and birds bred...

    Quick question

    I offer a short and hopefully logical refutation. Factors: (1) The pre-flood world was far more accomodating than the post because of it's Edenic conditions. (2) The population was also much smaller than our "modern" society. (3) The human race was of much greater physical prowess. (4)...

    Why were we created?

    Most Knowledgible Eon, There is a verse in the Bible that talks about how it is the tendency of man that, when God has filled him with good things and given him leisure, he becomes prideful and says "there is no God." So pride may come from a comfortable life as well as from discontent...

    Quick question

    Aww nuts... I was getting all riled up Gen... oh well... Ill just say three things: (1) According to my previous calculations each animal would have 6 sq.' each on the ark. (2) Jim, just because the bible says "its mate" does not mean they were mature, it simply means Noah didn't take two...

    Why were we created?

    Quick note I would like to comment on some things which people seem to misunderstand, especially in relation to giving God glory and words like "slavery" "bordom" and the like. Notice in my origional post I quoted John Piper as saying "The chief end of man is to glorify God by enjoying Him...

    Why were we created?

    Simple... tis found in the last chapter of that venerable book of Ecclesiastes in the thirteenth verse: "Fear the Lord, for this is man's all." God desires to be feared. Not to be scary so to speak, but to be magnified by creation for the infinitely powerful, infinitely beautiful...

    Written History (young Earth/Old Earth)

    Ecclesiastes 1:10-11 | That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of which it may be said, "See, this is new"? It has already been in ancient times before us. There is no remembrance of former things...

    Need Some Help

    Sometimes I get really ticked off at evolutionist's preconceived rut of what is or is not vaild science, which causes them to usurp all rights to "moot." My points are not moot. The theory I presented was in simple format, it has it's more complicated twins in the scientific field. Have you...

    The Love verse

    Pr 6:16 | These six things the LORD hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord...

    Questions

    Eon, these are the facts. If you are not a Christian then you will get a chance to see God, however this will not be the day where you question God, it will be the day when God questions you. That day will be horrifying above all else for those who don't believe. First, all people will...

    "The Grudge"

    Please note that scripture does have specific verses on this issue and it is mere you who "believe" there is none. Your opinion on the scriptures has no scriptural basis (lol). The follwing is a post I made earlier in this Thread.

    Questions

    Good one Gen. I would ask: "What is the meaning of flatulance? How does it glorify you?" Then after laughing for a good 3,000 years or so, Ill ask more seriously: "How deep is your mercy, grace, and love?" And that should occupy my mind for eternity.
