poeple other than timor are welcome to post their thoughts cuz im interested, cuz i might have missed a few things
 
I give you credit for taking the time and trying! I think all of these so called discrepancies can be answered but to tell you the truth, I don't think the people who post such a long disjointed list are really looking for the truth-just a debate.

I also think they could be answered with more in -depth responses, but it would take a long time. If I ever get a day with a long stretch of free time I may tackle some of them.

I'd like to give an additional response to the question "Was Jesus the first to rise from the dead?"
All the others listed ultimately died again. Their bodies have been buried. Jesus died, rose and lives today, seated at the right hand of the Father.
 
Y would god repent. If he is all knowing, and all powerful, he would stand by his actions as night.

"For I am the Lord, I change not."

Bcause if he repents u don't know what else he would regret, also it makes him less powerful and more unsure.
 
ahh, but you can repent and not actually change.

one of the multiple definitinos of repent is "to change the mind, or the course of conduct"


If I say I'm going to bungee jump off a bridge, and when I get there, all ready and set to go, I notice that my bungee is frayed and ready to break. I would repent of my decision of jump off that bridge and not do it. Would I have changed who or what I am? No. I just merely changed my mind about an action.

Whenever the Bible says that God repents of something, it's Him changing His mind about something, because the situation had changed.
 
so god made mistakes. How do u know what was a mistake and what wasn't.
Do I question everything or what. My mind is always on question mode. And I'm getting tired of it.

Again, the only person who actually is saying this is you. Changing your "mind" is not the same as making a mistake and then doing something to correct it. God promised to change his mind on destroying Soddom and Gamorah if 20 good people could be found amongst the two cities. Only 1 man and his family of wife and two daughters could be found.
 
Soddom and Gamorah
what happened there I think I remember something about it. Was there a party or something.
 
yet the playboy mansion is still there. One of my goals is to get invited to a midsummer night party.:D

Quote[/b] ]From the context, it is obvious that the mood of the mob was not friendly. Lot may have assessed that they had sex on their minds, because he offered his virgin daughters as an attempt to placate the mob. Some Christian interpreters maintain that all of the men in the city were present in the mob, and that all were homosexual. Lot would certainly have know of this, for he was a resident of the city. If they were all gay, then he would hardly have made a gift of his daughters to be raped; the mob would have had no sexual interest in women. Instead, he would have given the mob a gift of his two future son-in-laws. His daughters were both engaged to men from Sodom. In their culture, engagement was a binding arrangement, with many of the properties of marriage. It gave Lot authority over his future son-in-laws, much as he had control of his daughters. So he would have been able to sacrifice his daughters fiancées. But he didn't. Thus, we can conclude that most or all of the men of Sodom were not gay.

Another indication that the all the men of Sodom were not gay is seen in a number of biblical references which emphasize that one of the serious sins of Sodom was their neglect of orphans and widows. If all male "Sodomites" were gay then there would be few or no marriages and thus few or no widows and orphans.

A final indication is that Lot's future sons-in-law were from Sodom and were engaged to be married to his daughters. It is apparent that they were not homosexuals.

God was apparently not critical of Lot for offering his two daughters to be raped. If he were, he might have decided to not save Lot and his family.
