Well, the only evidence you could get would have to be of the Mystical sort. The best Mystical Evidence I have seen regarding the Creation Story is from Anne Catherine Emmerich's "Life of Jesus and History of Redemption" (often referred to as simply "Life of Jesus", in four volumes, but you would need only Volume One).[b said:Quote[/b] (timor @ Oct. 12 2003,2:33)]Was the Serpent in the Garden of Eden Satan? What evidence is there to support this? Furthermore, if Satan was merely posing as a serpent, why were all serpents then cursed forevermore to crawl on their bellies (and, apparently, eat the dust of the earth, which they dont)?
I'm not trying to be a jerk...this is serious.[b said:Quote[/b] (mrpopdrinker @ Oct. 12 2003,9:56)]Here is what I am following. Satan goes out and decieved Adam and Eve and is cursed. Now a cursed being cant very well be a archangel can it? Lucifer dident fall form heaven till much later. I meen it talks about him destroying nations and so forth. There were no nations at the time of the garden. So satan and lucifer must be seperate.
I like Anne Catherine Emmerich account, and from that I have contructed a consistent Model of the Story which makes Paradise an Astral-like Heaven, not the Earth that we have in the Bible. And Adam and Eve were Astral Spirits who only became Human Beings when they were cast down -- we were thrown 'into' human beings, we are NOT human beings -- we are IN human beings. This account serves well to explain alot. for instance, God is only Omnipotent IN HEAVEN. But the curse kicked us out of Heaven OUT OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD. Now, God only has Providential Power through the Agency of His Angels. All the Protestants who think they are going DIRECTLY to God misss the point that on Earth you can't go directly to God. This is not Heaven. By the very definition of where we happen to be we need the Intercession of the Angels and the Saints.[b said:Quote[/b] (timor @ Oct. 12 2003,9:10)]LMAO, SnakePower Yoga sounds freaking incredible. OMG, I wanna try that so bad man, you gotta hook me up =D
Anyways, what I get from your post is that you do not take a literal approach to the Genesis account? I know most of the Protestants here do.

yeah,[b said:Quote[/b] (timor @ Oct. 12 2003,10:08)]Where does the Bible *EVER* say that the Serpent was Satan?
And, on the subject of Lucifer, you may be surprised to know that the talk of Lucifer, the morning star, in Ezekial, was referring to an earthly king, not the devil.

So, you little inconsistant twiddlybob, if nothing is written down and nobody knows anything, what makes you so sure of your version?[b said:Quote[/b] (LionOfJudah @ Oct. 13 2003,8:42)]Satans rebellion was written by a Catholic, his rebellion is never stated in the Bible so we are not even sure if that is how it has happened people just accept it with out question. Adam and Eve where created as man and women here on Earth, and the garden was here on Earth.
Lets just explain away everything as we are spirits in a material world, are you catholic or newage now?
I explained how what I said is true.[b said:Quote[/b] (LionOfJudah @ Oct. 13 2003,8:40)]Hey leo you are wrong again we can pray to God anytime we want because our great High Priest made that atoning sacrifice for us so that we may pray to him.
WOW i like how the Catholics have put God in this box AGAIN
God is omnipotient, in heaven but not on earth
WOW that just crys stupidity all over it
The very nature of the greek work for omnipotient means EVERYWHERE, infact you cant even discribe the word right in english because that is how factured our language really is.
