Age of the Levites to Minister
There is another discrepency in our modern Bibles based on the Masoretic Text. It is between Numbers chapter 4 and chapter 8. In Numbers 4 the ages of the Levites qualified to minister in the temple was between ages 30 to 50 Yet In Numbers 8, the ages are between 25 and 50. In the Septuagint however...

Most people do not know that in the Ancient Septuagint, there are two different words used for "light" in the Genesis account. The first word means "fire" or "torch" When God said "Let there be light" he was speaking of fire. The next word used for fire (when ...

The Two Geneologies of Jesus
Response: Luke 3:23 (not 2:23) does not actually say that Jesus"was the son" of Joseph. It reads that he was "supposed as being" or "was allowed" to be as a son of Joseph. See below: Vaticinus: "And he was the Jesus about years thirty, beginning, being , as was all...

A Tale of Two Donkeys?
Many skeptics have fun with this one. They will point out that Matthew 21:1-7 teaches that Jesus rode upon two donkeys. If you read our modern translations, yes, they are correct, however, the Oldest texts (Syriac Peshitta tranlated into English) read like this: Matthew 21:1 AND when he drew nigh to...

Some Answers to Bible Difficulties
I also have a forum which is too extensive to copy and paste it all. I used to be a skeptic myself but found that archeology and history support the Bible tremendously. Here is the site (under Textual Criticism) that answers the following: http://biblehistoryevi.freeforumsite.com/biblehistoryevi-for...

I am just truly amazed at how everyone here (so far as I have seen) is so intelligent and does so much research. I don't meet too many Christians that know that much about the Bible, history, archeology, etc. Most of my close friends are very fundamental (wonderful people though) and just believe fa...

Regarding the 55 year old formations from Mt. Isa the formations predate the mines. The operations took advantage of naturally existing cave system in Camooweal.

BeGoodForGoodSake Every instance is unique and does not necessarily apply to all cases. Most of the verified older formations are of calcium carbonate. Try re-examining your information. Do you have specifics on this? Locations where this has been proven? I do know of several other accounts short p...
