The whole truth?

Anyone who has studied the Bible much is probably familiar with Isaiah 7:14: Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. The New Testament tells us that it is a prophecy of the virgin birth of Jesus. But as he c...

Re: The sons of Abraham

You gave the biblical accounts with your presupposition that the bible is correct. Why do you refer to the belief that the Bible is correct as my presupposition? Don't you agree with it? According to your profile you are a Christian and Christianity is based on the belief that the Bible is true. If...

The sons of Abraham

Abraham had two sons, Isaac and Ishmael. The Jews are descendants of Isaac and the Arabs are descendants of Ishmael. Despite their common ancestry Jews and Arabs are enemies and there seems to be little hope that this condition will change in the forseeable future. But despite their differences ther...

Re: Finally Picked a creation stance.

The Hebrew word Yom has other literal meanings besides a 24 hour day. From this link: http://www.oldearth.org/word_study_yom.htm I know the word has other meanings but not all of them are literal meanings. In the creation account each day consists of a period of light and a period of darkness and i...

Re: Finally Picked a creation stance.

Theophilis, the bible doesn't clearly say that the world was created in six 24 hour days. The text says 6 "yoms". There is more than one LITERAL meaning of yom. What other literal interpretation is there? Just because you or anyone else says your interpretation is clearly the correct one,...

Re: Finally Picked a creation stance.

The fact is all stances can be intetpreted into scripture. All can be interpreted into scripture but not all of them can be true. All false cults such as Mormons and Jehovah's witnesses can also find scriptures to support their beliefs. It is obvious that not all methods of interpreting the Bible a...

Re: Finally Picked a creation stance.

I just find it very very comforting to know that there is no threat to my faith from evolution - and really evolution is neutral in the debate and it is only the new-athiests that have hijacked it as a tool to promote their natualistic beliefs. What kind of evolution are you talking about? The word...

Re: WHERE DID CAIN GET HIS WIFE?

Chapter one of Genesis describes the creation of the world with the creation of humans taking place on the sixth day. Chapter two gives a more detailed description of the creation of the first humans. When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up—for...

The connecting link

Chapters 38 and 39 of Ezekiel describe an invasion of Israel which is stopped by divine intervention. There is disagreement among Bible students about when this invasion will take place. Some think it is a description of the final battle at Armageddon; some think it will take place earlier, perhaps ...
