That’s an interesting reply seeing as how you never addressed anything that was presented to you… Can you even admit that God made the garments for Adam and his wife? No killing of any animals was mentioned….certainly no sacrifice was ever offered. God condemned Adam….telling this man, who was...

I did…..and it confirms what I already wrote….. That other word “seiō” means….. “to shake, agitate, cause to tremble of men, to be thrown into a tremor, to quake for fear metaph. to agitate the mind” The second word can be linked to the shaking of the earth as well as to humans….so what is...

Again…what is “hell“ if people ”perish” there? Jesus also said in Matt 10:28…. ”And do not become fearful of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather, fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. [Ge·henʹna].” Is hell (Gehenna) a place of eternal conscious torment or...

All of that is true, but it doesn’t explain why Jesus had to come into existence the way he did. God could have created a son like the first Adam and presented him into the world as his Messiah…..but he chose to have him come into the world through a human mother. The Scriptures tell us why...

In your own case, which was the real you? Being born with sin as our inheritance, we all have choices and reasons why we become “lost”. Remember that Jesus said he was sent only to “the lost sheep of the house of Israel”? Who were those ”lost sheep”? Jesus preached to everyone who would listen...

Please read the reply to @Brakelite above. Mercy is extended to those who warrant it. IOW, God has his reasons for extending mercy when it is encompassed in his will and purpose. No one is extended mercy if they show no repentance. Even those who were executed for their crimes in this world...

Read the account again…Gen 3:21…. ”And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins, and clothed them.” God made the garments that were given to Adam and his wife. It wasn’t Adam’s idea to make “garments of skin” for them….it was God….and the Creator who did not need to kill his...

Did you miss the scripture that tells us that only the woman was “deceived”…..Adam was not…. ”For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.“ (1 Tim 2:13-14 RSV) There it is…..Adam did not make a mistake, nor did he have a...

Strongs Concordance states that “seismos” means…. “a shaking, a commotion a tempest an earthquake” And it goes on to list all the verses where this word occurs in the NT. See for yourself… “Seismos” definition and usage. If you search for the word “turmoil” it is only mentioned in OT...

The law of cause and effect….the “last days” were to be plagued by earthquakes and these shifts in the tectonic plates could trigger massive earthquakes all over the world…..nature will be used to show wickedly proud humanity that their weapons are like water pistols compared to the arsenal that...

This just blows my mind…..read what you wrote…. ”Christ fully submitted himself to the will of God”…..how does God “submit” to himself? “Christ was passive and DID NOT exercise His own will to preserve His life”…..how does Christ have a will that is different to God’s, if they are one and the...

Can you show me a single scripture that states that animals were granted everlasting life? Humans alone were made in God’s image and given the opportunity for everlasting life….animals are programmed for death…humans are not. Animals act instinctively, not consciously. They plan nothing because...

Hang on….what on earth does that mean?… “their stubborn belief in a creation that necessitated the death of creatures in order to evolve”? Where have we ever mentioned evolution? Or that the death of creatures was involved in their evolution? It pays to check with us before you post about...

Not true. The woman was “deceived”……but the man was not. Did you never ask why sin entered into humankind through the man and not the woman? ”For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.“ (1 Tim 2:13-14 RSV) It was Adams...

I am saying that what is written in plain terms allows for no interpretation of your church’s theology. You have filled in the blanks where there weren’t any. Implying something is adding to the story…where does it say that God sacrificed animals to clothe Adam and his wife? Where was Adam told...

I never suggested that it did….The gift is free but it’s conditional…..as was life itself in Eden. In order to keep living Adam and his wife had to obey one simple command…..they disobeyed and lost the right to live….death would inevitably come. Death is the opposite of life. What does it mean...

There are some assumptions here….first is the clothing that God gave them to replace the fig leaves they sewed together to cover their reproductive parts, due to this new feeling that overwhelmed them….shame. God demonstrated by the clothing he gave them that minimal or immodest clothing was...

Adam and Eve did not go anywhere after their death because they were not told of any possibility of an afterlife of any description. One has to believe in immortality of the soul to believe in a “heaven or hell“ scenario to begin with. Did the Jews believe in an immortal soul? Or was this an...

Just to address a few points here….. This is plainly not true…no one is born a child of God or a child of the devil…..we are all born as a virtual blank canvas. Many factors will determine whose “child“ we prove ourselves to be as we grow to maturity…..it will be by the choices we make and the...

It also helps to understand what plant or weed Jesus was referring to…..as you said, a plant cannot change from one species to another and these are two very different species…..one is a useful, harmless plant…the other a noxious weed. The weed in question is believed to be “bearded darnel” and...
