I wonder if God will listen to my prayers, if I rap a prayer to Him...

I probably shouldn't take a chance. God may hate rap too, and then He'll strike me with lightning!

11th commandment-thou shalt not rap!
John 5:24
24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

God already knows what you're thinking. So don't be scared to say it. Be honest with God. He can handle it. He has His big boy pants on. ;)

He will NOT! Well, I'm pretty sure He wouldn't. Er, He shouldn't. Hope He doesn't. He may just reply, "Resubmit without all the ..."

CRAP, I was gonna say, crap.

Lol speaking of God visibly striking down someone with lightning. I would do anything to actually see God's cloud above the temple and the tabernacle back in the OT. It'd be legit to see him physically....without dying. ;)

Oh, if you saw him physically, who cares if afterwards you die? As long as he does it gently...

What if I pray for an answer and God leads me to beleive in Schroeder's Creation Perspective? Or OEC?

What then?

I'll just say pray for God's wisdom and Let God be true and every man a liar.I believe Gap theory creationism is the right one compared to the other ones and I try to make a case for it but it does not effect anybody's salvation but the majority in the church has been wrong before and it can happen again. God's word has a way of coming along at the right time and proving his word is right and both believers and non-believers wrong.And we look back now and realize it was their interpretation that was wrong or even their world-view,yet God's word was right,it was man that got it wrong.

I notice when I do bring up Gap Theory creationism it seems to upset or offend certian people.Like this thread this we had a person that was conflicted about his faith in God because he thinks creationism does'nt have evidence or a way to confirm it,but yet he can't understand how TE's view Adam and Eve.Well I was concerned for his faith first but I thought he might be talking about Gap Theory creationism based on what he wrote,so I just tried to let him know if he was talking about Gap Theory creationism we do have evidence there was a former world that perished,it is actually alot of the very same evidence evolutionist's use for evidence for evolution.

This is because this evidence was used for Gap Theory creationism before evolution became a scientific theory and we believe it still is evidence for it even today but evolution science has blinded us to the truth of a former world that existed that perished prior to God making this world we live in now. All we are doing is taking back our evidence Charles Darwin used to make a case for evolution. He took the known scientific evidence at the time and made the theory of evolution fit into it,and we believe every since then the modern scientific elite have been "hoodwinked" by evolution. The evidence in the earth shows that we have "A Lost world" A Lord of the Rings type world that has been overlooked because of evolution.

It is a common thing to see critics of the Gap Theory claim it was made up to accomodate evolution and millions of years when this is not true. It is one thing to promote your creation interpretation but to make up things that are not true just because you disagree is wrong,and yet they do.

Despite all of the denials I've gotten here about the Gap Theory I have not been convinced it is wrong biblically,despite the denials of it.Therefore I see no reason to believe it is wrong biblically. Those who think it is wrong have not convinced me why biblically. I have even went back over discussions I've had and checked out the counter arguments and yet they were wrong biblically. I honestly have yet to see or hear of anyone who has biblically refuted Gap Theory creationism despite them telling me it is wrong but not really showing why biblically. I expect to be shown by God's word it is wrong and I have not seen it yet.

Out of hand rejection is not going to convince me,neither is appealing to the majority and what they think. God Bless you all and Merry Christmas.

Anybody who is offended by Gap Theory needs to get a life Big Time. It's nothing more than a bleeping theory after all! Perhaps they get upset because of you...? After all, you do sound like a rabid salesman pushing a product nobody wants. You are very much like those YEC Nazis and KJV Onlyists...

I don't think God cares about which, if any, creation stance you take. It's a detail (and the devil is in the detail :mrgreen: ). It could be any of them (except the Gap Theory :mrgreen: ), or none.
