    GEN 1:1-2 SPEAKS MORE THAN CREATION!

    Read the Old Testament genealogy where it shows how old Adam was when his son was born, and how old his son was when his grandson was born, and so on; and you will find that it was 4000 years from Adam to Abraham; after that it was 2000 to Christ, and 2000 years to the present day. That is...

    Heresy within Christianity

    I guess I didn't quite understand what you were saying. To clarify this for myself, I thought of the Scripture: "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their...

    Why do we need priests?

    Your responses are a breath of fresh air for me. :)

    THE AGE OF MAN IS OVER ONE MILLION YEARS

    As I am typing this I am chomping on my breakfast!

    What is the purpose of being born in bodies of earthly flesh?

    You didn't get that from Genesis 1. I just believe what is written in that chapter, no more, no less. Man was created on day 6 and God saw that His creation was perfect. The choice that has to be made here is whether we accept the true Word of God, or the ideas of atheists who are leaving...

    BIBLE VERSIONS CAN AFFECT SALVATION

    You must be one of contentious ones that I was warned about. Resorting to acidic abuse weakens your credibility. I was just very surprised that you didn't get what I was actually saying. The kiwi came to NZ over the landbridge when the level of the oceans went down during the ice age after...

    BIBLE VERSIONS CAN AFFECT SALVATION

    Were you behind the door when your elementary school teacher taught the class comprehension, or are you having trouble with my New Zealand wit? I meant about the errors those people did as recorded in the Bible. Those were the real errors in the Bible.

    Heresy within Christianity

    I took the trouble of watching her whole presentation. She is highly qualified with a PhD in genetics. I think that you will find fault with any authority that I would suggest, because you don't want to believe what God is saying in Genesis 1. It seems that you would rather take the word of...

    Heresy within Christianity

    How can you know that when you, nor anyone else were there? You are saying that you are very sure that there was no Adam and Eve. What are you basing that on? The only substantive evidence according to "operation science" is that it has to be observed, and shown by scientific experimentation...

    Heresy within Christianity

    Were you there? Do you know for sure? I know someone who was there, and He has given us a detailed account of Adam and Eve, who they were and what they did. He was also there when Noah and his wife and family stepped out of the ark. I believe Him because He speaks the truth, rather than men...

    BIBLE VERSIONS CAN AFFECT SALVATION

    Most of the prominent translations of the Bible (KJV, NKJV, NAB, ESV, Jerusalem Bible, RSV, NEB, NIV) all can be viewed as the infallible Word of God, because any errors are typographical and therefore cosmetic and don't significant alter the main text. The main problem is that people cannot...

    THE AGE OF MAN IS OVER ONE MILLION YEARS

    I meant I wasn't sure whether to rise to the bait... Evolutionists are just monkeying around and just swinging from one failed theory to another. They don't know the difference between a champ and a chimp!

    Why do we need priests?

    I don't think that those in the U.S. understand the ANZAC sense of humour. We may not be super religious because we have a more down to earth view of the silly aspects of religion that exists in parts of the U.S. Also, Catholicism, Mormonism, and Islam are not as dominant in our countries as...

    What is the purpose of being born in bodies of earthly flesh?

    The bodies of Adam and Eve were created perfectly. God's evaluation of His creation of man was "good, very good". The human body was created to be immortal, free of imperfection, sickness, disease and death. But because of Adam's rebellion against God, everything changed because it was all...

    Why do we need priests?

    There are some areas we don't want to get too close to, because we never know what might jump out at us!

    Why do we need priests?

    My daughter who was studying psychology at the time, told me that if something is drummed into a child during their childhood, it is almost impossible to get them to believe anything different. I got the New Zealand version of brain washing once. I got my gumboots full of water! :D

    Why do we need priests?

    Have you only just discovered that?? :p When I joined an Anglican church in the late 1970s, the curate told me that after three weeks I would be as mad as the rest of them. I believed him because he was a psychologist with the Ministry of Justice before he became a minister. And he was right...

    THE AGE OF MAN IS OVER ONE MILLION YEARS

    I'm sure whether to rise to the bait or not... Actually the rain took 40 days to flood the whole world. Then it took time for the flood to recede and the water level low enough for the ark to settle on the ground. Then it would have taken more time for the ground to dry out enough to release...

    Why do we need priests?

    If you go to confess your sins to a paedophile priest, he might end up confessing his sins to you!!!
