I don't see it because it's not there! :study: ...you should be able to be a lot less vague if you're defending what you "know" is true.
Apparently my suspicions are justified. Read my previous posts and you'll find the specific reference to the verse in II Corinthians 12:2 where Paul specifically says the third heaven! I'm not quite sure what's vague about that. I continue to provide verses that supplement what I say because I know it to be true.
Yes... your point? I say those bones are there as a result of the biblical Noachic flood... not an extrabiblical, "pre-historic" Luciferian flood.
That's not what the Bible says. Genesis 6:19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female. Genesis 7:15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life. That's what the Bible has to say about it. This tradition that dinosaurs somehow escaped the Bible (with the exception of Job where God shows us that they indeed existed) and dissappeared in the flood is truly flawed. I think we can all agree that when God says it, God means it. He said every. Not a few, not some, not most, but every.
How did what I say put any limit on God's power? Please be specific. I re-read it and I have no idea how you can think that... when you say "God can easily defy" what He says, you are saying God has no problem with lying to His people. I have a problem with that! If you think I'm limiting God's power by saying he is not a liar then I don't think there's any reconciliation between the two of us on that point.
With all due respect, I do not understand you one bit my friend. To even suggest that I am calling God "a liar" warrants nothing more from me to respond to that. I'll let those chips fall where they may. As for the limiting of God's power, you're reading the Bible as some sort of flat history book of what happened. You're missing the clues that Our Father so masterfully placed in important spots and yelling heresay anytime someone doesn't agree with you. The title Living Bible is quite apt. God gave it to us as his letter, and despite our best attempts to corrupt its meaning in the various translations, the Truth is still right there on many different levels.
Yes. Chapter 2... which is after the time frame I gave as the only sensible biblical explanation for the timing of this occurrence.
Which proves nothing to satiate your point nor mine for that matter. Genesis simply documents his appearance in language which is ambiguous. Satan simply appears in chapter two.
Are you not saying there had to be a whole other creation before Genesis 1:2? You have to be saying that if you believe in a gap of a gajillion years between Gen. 1:1 and 1:2.
All in your mind, perhaps, if you feel that way. However, this Truth found in the Bible doesn't deny anywhere that God created all things.
Saying that's a stretch is putting it lightly. Please don't try to make it something it's not... the words have basically the same meaning. In fact, in the Septuagint, "made" in Gen. 1:1 and "made" in Ex. 20:11 are the same word, εποίησεν (Strong's Gr. 4160).
The word is Hebrew word #6213 in most references. It's showing up that way in every version that I have checked including several online versions of the Septuagint. Either way, the specific word does not matter because it still says what I affirm that God created this world and heaven as we know it in Genesis.
