Well as it does not appear in teh Hebrew- it is an irrelavent question. But what about all the rest of "mankind" you hypothesize God created? They had no test and failed Scripture says nothing aboutr these mythic people you say god created. So you are unable to see that if Adam had passed...

Yes He does- so we must leave it to Him to judge. For contentions in teh church, yes! For trying to read the thoughts and intent of anothers heart- no! It takes humble questioning to discover if they will reveal it. This is for the elders in teh church setting and for us in evangelical...

Yes simply misunderstanding the phrase: "haya tohu va bohu" While in teh "qal" haya can mean become, it cannot in the perfect. Also tohu wah bohu simply means an empty wasteland or area. When coupled with teh rest of teh Genesis 1 narrative we see God created teh planet empty and then we see...

Well if you are talking about catholic (small c) then yes the catholic church was founded at penetceost. But as I am talking about the RCC it was born with Pope Leo.; conceived by Constantine and further western emperors. there is a huge difference between catholic and Roman Catholic.

I never said they didn't. And this was written long before Israel came to be! It is also a eupemism or idiom to mean a day! YOu must also remember that Jews considered any part of a day as a day!

Wrong! He would have used the p[lural form as it was more than one person made. Zakar in the singular means one male! nə-qê-ḇāh means a single female. Now the first instance of man in Gen. 1:27 is ha-adam, but that is also in the singular. Ha-adam is the generic term for man which can and...

And being stubborn is not necessarily a bad thing. I have no idea where you get your claims from that place the first two days as indefinite time frames. I take my stance on the bible as written in both English and Hebrew! If the first two days are indefinite then the other five days are...

But when God made humans he made a man and woman singular. So then you do not know if any of them have sinned! We know Adam had one choice to obey or not obey and he failed. According to your hypothesis we can have untold people who are still sinless. We have no mention of them or any...

Well I was simply responding to what you said in post 97. Language, construct and grammar do not justify calling the first 2 days unspecified time frames and the rest normal days. The whole conjecture about light and darkness is just that conjecture! You imply Jesus was created because God...

Wrong and I don't think you know what a straw man is! But if you go to a Hebrew grammar guide, you will see when God made male and female He made just a single one each! Adam could fill teh earth in time. I am sorry you feel the need Adam had to do it in a little bit of time! And what...

By many Christians sure! You don't get a Church overnight. It started with Constantine and was born with Pope . Constantine was centralizing church authority in Rome and it culminated when was crowned Pope and ruler of the whole church-= the First pope to be formally entitled. If you use...

Because we now know that a day is a 24 hour period! They may not have known and they counted the day less precise as we do, but that difference is the same as saying tomahtoe or tomaytoe

1. How do you know they are not talking about a day as we call a day? 2. God specified the time like He did with the other 4 creation days: 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God...

Adam was formed on the sixth day- Just as the bible says. Genesis 2 is a recap of the creative week for the first part. How long it took God to plant and grow teh garden and place Adam and eve init we do not know. But what you are ijmplying is God created a bunch of people, and yet we are all...

Well as I never implied that tongues of angels is gibberish, that is you simply making assumptions of what I actually did write. It is not a hyperbole, but a linguistic tool to compare and contrast deeds versus love. Basic understanding of Greek shows that. He is simply saying that if someone...

that is the great white throne judgment and Christians will not be at that judgment. You forget that sin is no longer an issue for placement in heaven or hell! Jesus is the acceptable sacrifice for all mens sins. One does not go to the lake of fire because they are sinners! No they go...

You are making an assumption that the punishment here is being left behind when the rapture takes place! If they are IN CHRIST they will be caught up! And what determines how many false doctrines does it take to be left behind? How lazy does a Christian need to be? If these are sins- they...

No it evidences my ability to read a text as it is and not add unfounded ages where there is none suggested in the Bible at all! 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of...

And I feel sad that I seem to be a very small voice in believing circles. We as followers of Jesus should overflow with voices of reason and we of all should be critical of conspiracy theories. I know that conspiracy theories have a germ of truth but in Christian circles people are taking...

Paul simply said there are advantages ot that gift frlm teh spirit, but was not better than other gifts. Well I have not surveyed all tongue speakers so I can't give such definitive answers as you do! But Paul said since He spoke in tongues of angels as well! That throws another wrench oin...
