    Grailhunter’s Corner

    You have written a book. Looks interesting. Shows a lot of hard work and good research. I have written several Christian Ebooks, and had a very good mentor who gave me many good hints on how to make them very readable and easy to follow. I would like to pass what I have learned on to you...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    Ah! A clue! Why do you think that Jesus was able to legally forgive the man his sins and will advocate for him at the final judgment? Not arguing your point but getting further information.

    GARDEN SNAKES CAN BE DANGEROUS...

    I wonder if they got some volunteers from the Snake Handlers church to do the job? :-)

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    I wouldn't call it bickering. After all, what's a forum about? People sharing and debating their various ideas and insights into the things of God. If everyone agreed with each other, this forum would not even exist.

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    There is no indication in Genesis 1-3 that they had any children before the Fall. They had Abel and Cain after they were ejected from where the tree of life was. We don't know how many children Adam and Eve had before or after Cain and Abel because we are not told. I can't believe that even...

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    Illogical. It is the same as saying that Winston Churchill was born after the second world war, because we can't depend on history being concurrent events, but events could be out of the order of what was written.

    So, do you really believe that Adam wore some type of condom to stop Eve getting pregnant in all the times they had sex over the 130 years?

    Bible verses most Christians refuse to believe

    The Bible passage that many Christians don't believe is Genesis 1. They treat it as a myth - that the actual events never really happened in the way the literal text says it happened. The problem is that is that Genesis 1 is absolutely essential to the gospel of Christ. If Genesis 1-3 are...

    How to pray? mouth or heart?

    When I pray I just walk along with my hands in my pockets just having fellowship with my Father in heaven, chatting about what is in my heart at that particular time. I am not formalised in my prayers because if I was, the Lord would say to me, "Why on earth are you talking to me like you are...

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    So Adam used a condom, or Eve went on the pill to stop them having children for a 100 years? Come on! It is as ridiculous as the senseless notion that Mary went on the pill to stop her having children after Jesus, in spite of being an ordinary married couple enjoying all their activities on...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    Because all have broken the Ten Commandments, all will be found guilty at the last judgment. There will be no exceptions. Good deeds will not be considered, because people will not be judged on them. It will be the same as a child rapist standing before a judge and saying, "Yes, I committed...

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    If Adam lived for 900 years, we would be able to believe that Cain lived to a similar age. You don't really believe that Adam and Eve didn't have sex for 100 years! Come on! And they were very fertile and there was no birth control in those days. You know, some people switch their brains...

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    Okay. No problems there. But Seth's line was the one that led to Noah, not Cain's.

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    I think that Eden was the region, and the actual Garden where the tree of life was a limited area within it. Adam and Eve were ejected from the precinct of the tree of life, but still remained in the Eden region and had more sons and daughters there, and as the population increased, they spread...

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    So, it is obvious that the angel with the flaming sword was there to guard the tree of life, situated at the east of the garden. That's granted. So, the only answer is that the whole region at the time as the Garden of Eden, and people multiplied and moved away from the region to establish...

    Not by works - but by faith

    You are correct. These things are illogical to the natural human mind. That's why when we share the gospel with the unsaved, we avoid getting into debates with them about these things. It is once a person is converted to Christ that the Holy Spirit can help him understand how and why these...

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    You are avoiding actually quoting any actual Genesis reference to say they had access to the Garden after Adam and Eve were ejected from it because of their disobedience.

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    You have just quoted it. Anyhow, if there is an angel with a flaming sword guarding the Garden and the tree of life, as Genesis clearly says, how come they were able to get back into the garden past that angel? Genesis was written for a reason - to provide clear history about what actually...

    Quote the Genesis verse what it says they were back in the Garden.

    SONS OF GOD, WHO ARE THEY?

    I wonder what version of the Bible you are reading. This stuff doesn't appear in any version of the Bible I am reading (KJV, RSV, NIV, ESV, NEB, NASB, Jerusalem Bible).
