    The Record of Creation

    The Record of Creation, Part 3 We continue with our examination Gen 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” “In the beginning God created the heavens…” Some students of the word are of the opinion that the “heavens” here mentioned refer to firmament, the atmosphere which...

    Abortion ?

    I’m sorry my sister but this is not how the scriptures say things will go, God is not going to judge anyone until they have had a full opportunity to come to the knowledge of the truth. God does not propose to save men on account of ignorance, but "will have all men to come unto the knowledge...

    The Record of Creation

    Your point is taken, the only reason we say "in a beginning" is to distinguish this beginning and its work, from those previous beginnings, such as the creation or beginning of the spiritual abode or home of the angelic host, and then of course the creation or beginning of the angelic hosts...

    The Record of Creation

    Keep in mind that this account of "creation" relates only to the visible spectrum, the heavens (the universe, stars, galaxies and etc.), and the earth as they pertain to man, all of which is his abode or dwelling place. But more specifically it is an account of creation as it relates to the...

    The Record of Creation

    When the evolution versus creation debate started in the 1800s, the ground rules were clear. At that time the issue was plain and simple. Everybody knew Genesis recorded all the cattle, creeping things and beasts of the earth reproduced "after his kind." There was the "dog kind;" the "horse...

    The Record of Creation

    The Record of Creation, Part 2 Genesis VERSE 1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” “In the beginning...” The original Hebrew text translates it thus, b·rashith bra aleim ath e·shmim u·ath e·artz in·beginning he-created...

    The Record of Creation

    As there appears to be quite a few religious fundamentalist on this forum we have decided to post our own thread on this subject which we believe more accurately depicts the creation work. As with most subjects the pendulum generally tends swings to far one way or another, we hope to show there...

    The Cosmos

    Who said anything about the bible teaching the the earth is flat or that the sun revolves around the earth. We merely said that these were at one time believed, we never implied that such beliefs came from the bible.

    The Cosmos

    Sorry, but this is a belief held by naive Christians, lacking the "spirit of a sound mind".

    The Cosmos

    The Sabbath which God entered into on the seventh day was not a Sabbath from all work as we had pointed out in Post # 15, but merely a Sabbath or rest from the creative work. God is still on that Sabbath, and has since the first advent given to the Son the responsibility of finishing up the work...

    The Cosmos

    I believe we already addressed this in one of our first post, viz. “The evening and the morning were the first day”. The Hebrew word here translated "evening" literally means "dusk" or darkness. What the Divine Author evidently wants us to understand is that each of the creative periods had an...

    Abortion ?

    First of all I believe it is important here to distinguish just what this life (spoken of in John 10:10) is that our Lord is to give and to whom it is to be given. “…I am come that they [mankind] might have life, and have it more abundantly (everlastingly)." In 2 Tim 1:10 the Apostle Paul...

    Abortion ?

    I would say the same go back and re-read what I said, I phrased it as a question, I was not implying you believed either way. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

    The Cosmos

    No the Bible is not wrong; it is your perspective which is wrong. The sun, moon and stars were already there all alone it’s just that they were not visible from the surface of the earth because of the dense cloud cover which shrouded the earth. This “swaddling band” completely hid the light of...

    The Cosmos

    There was a time when many foolishly believe that the earth was flat, that the sun revolved around the earth, but these had the excuse of living in the dark ages, a time of rampant superstition and ignorance, but we have come a long way since then both in knowledge and understanding for any to...

    Abortion ?

    In others words you are a doubting Thomas, you need to see it, to experience it for yourself before you will believe it. Are you not willing to take God's word on the matter as recorded in the scriptures? If not this implies you have no faith in God, in his word. The Scriptures inform us of...

    The Cosmos

    Sorry my friend but I base my conclusions on the laws of nature, and the giver of those laws, the Almighty Himself. It is God who has established the natural laws by which all life exist and reproduces itself, He is the one who set the time period for the gestation of fish, animals and man, and...

    The Cosmos

    It you look closely you will note that it was not until the end of each day that it was stated, “so the evening and the morning were the first day… the second day…the third day…the fourth day…the fifth day and the sixth day. The only reason this is not likewise stated in regards to the seventh...
