Evidence for God from Science

A basic rule for interpreting just about any lengthy document or book - be it the US Constitution or the Bible or Fun With **** And Jane - is to take any part of it in context . The context for the story of Noah is Genesis chapters 6,7,8, and 9. If DTT lacked the respect for the Bible to spend the ...

Ignoring arguments about the extent of the flood (I hold to a global flood, by the way), the reason is simple enough and directly stated in Scripture: 2 You must take with you seven of every kind of clean animal, the male and its mate, two of every kind of unclean animal, the male and its mate, 3 a...

God was saying that he will not punish the world with flood, its not the flood which is in question but God's justice. In other words, floods, earthquakes will of course come, as they have always been but it won't be because God's justice. So "never again will I destroy all living creatures, a...

I think you are overlooking the proverbial usage here, re read what i wrote, if the words mean land, then it automatically means that the flood is local and all living creatures refer to the immediate in the area. So God was saying he'd never again destroy all animals in a "local" area yo...

no tom, land only means land, it does not mean the entire planet. here is a snippet for you from an earlier discussion. ***** "The word “earth” as is used in the account of Genesis’ flood and other parts of it, never actually means planet Earth. That is where most confusion lies. The Hebrew wo...

not really, the flood could not have been global, it must be local, and if such, then yes its okay to persume that the animals in a certain area died. So you think the bible is wrong when it says "All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died" And whe...

But the ones that weren't on the boat drowned - the bible is quite clear on that.

"All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died""

<Quote="Genesis 7: 8-9">Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.</quote> <Quote="Genesis 8 19:20">Every b...

That's a long post, and I've failed in my attempt to reply to all of it without making my post pages long. So here's my reply to the first bit, on which the rest of your post 'hangs' What Principle does Galatians 6:7 set forth about God? (Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoe...

Hello there I am new to this forum; the website has proved invaluable for me as references. Lately I have been having a long online discussion with an agnositc. My question is, how can I end a discussion when an agnostic/atheist kept saying that I am contradicting myself: "do you realize all t...

DowTingTom, did Ross A. McGinnis uselessly die? WASHINGTON — If there's an opportunity to escape the deadly blast of a grenade, the Army trains soldiers to take it. When an Iraqi insurgent threw a grenade into the Humvee where Pfc. Ross A. McGinnis manned the machine gun, he had time to jump from t...

It is NOT about His death but His Resurrection. It was His resurrection that drew "all" to Him and reconciled Man with God though Christ. You are focusing on His death and WHY it had to happen and the fact is that death HAD to happen for the resurrection to happen. Christianity is not jus...

It appears we have another Magsolo/Snowrider here, seriously what does this have to do with the topic at hand. I would also recommend a book called "Is God a Moral Monster" by Paul Copan, your answers lie there. Just coming back to this after a busy few days with real life and stuff. I'd ...

Isaiah 40:18, 22, To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare to Him? .... 22 It is He who sits above the circle of the earth , And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.
