There might actually be Christians, who don't believe that the days spoken of in Genesis, are actually 24hour days.There are actual "Christians" that don't believe in Harpazo, There are "Christians" that don't believe in a literal Hell, and there are some that probably don't believe in a real Global Flood.
Tiffany, you do realize that one can interpret parts of scripture differently than you do, and still be a Christian, saved by the efficacious work of Christ, don't you?
Yeah Rick-I totally believe that for sure-anddddddd I do have a few names for some of them in which I will not reveal at this time, but I know that I have to love them because God made me.
And, if I don't-Well-you know-
However, get this one Rick-
I’m thinking fifteen cubits upward and the mountains being covered-twenty-two and a half feet above the summits of the highest hills. Hmmmm
Now I would say that this language is not consistent with the theory of a partial deluge, if you ask me..
Genesis 7:17-20 states: that the flood was increasing forty days.
Now Rick you know that Forty days is a long time to put up with rain.
AND- The waters rose so high, that the tops of the highest mountains were overflowed more than twenty feet. Hmmmmm- Twenty feet?
When the flood increased, Noah's ark was lifted up, and the waters which broke down every thing else, bore up the ark.
So Yeah-I’m believing in the Global Flood because the Bible said it and that settles it.
Now this is Sent With Love Rick-
Oh Yeah by-the-way I'm still wandering if by any chance we may be kin!
Ummmmm-How close would you be from say Lunenberg?
And one more thing-I have lived in Florida Three Times-Daytona Beach, Clearwater and Palm Harbor.
Ooops, I left some info off-
