Evolution Promotes Brutality

[Extraneous]

You doofus! Study this prophecy:

Genesis 9:27a God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem;

No, im not sure i can agree with that interpretation. America stole the land from the Indians, and justice was not seen in any of it, not that i can see. God is a God of Justice.

Matthew 7:21-23New International Version (NIV)

True and False Disciples
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

Paul had his own issues with this world, and all that naughty, naughty flesh... I suppose you've heard the Bible scholars who suspect that he was, in fact, a closeted homosexual?

Being gay in Biblical times would certainly make on depressed and self-loathing.

I understand.

It's a sensitive issue and frankly I don't like to discuss it in mixt company.

(I know ... why'd I bring it up? )

LOL and WOW.

Ya ... you'll hear just about anything from a "Bible scholar."

 

[Extraneous]

Sounds then like you're trapped in a pointless and futile life, waiting for God to pull you out of it...

We all are. The end is death my friend. There is no escape. Everyone starts cringing whenever someone mentions death. Its just a fact of life however. To live is to die. I want to live however. If everyone else wants to die, thats up to them.

That's the most pathetic and pointless worldview I've ever heard... sad, really.

 

[AV1611VET]

That's the most pathetic and pointless worldview I've ever heard... sad, really.

That "most pathetic and pointless worldview" led to one of the most famous conclusions recorded in Scripture:

Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

Sad but true, You cant deny it. I however have hope. You are welcome to join me if you want.

 

[Extraneous]

Also, it may be sad, but its not my point of view, its actually the Atheist point of view. Its they who say we live only to die. I say we live to be born again.

Speaking as part Cherokee now, that would be a violation of Noah's prophecy.

Speaking of Cherokee, I found this thread pretty interesting concerning N A relationship with Jews and perhaps even the priestly tribe of Levi.

Cherokee Indian - Lost Tribes

Hi,

I was just informed that the Native American Cherokee Nation has been identified as being one of the lost tribes of Israel through DNA testing and ancient writing that they were in possession of. I found this fascinating because I have Cherokee ancestry. I am more white than Native American, but I have always felt an affinity to the Cherokee.

If someone were to find that they did have some biological link to Jews, would it be reasonable for them to learn about messianic Judaism or just stick to being a former gentile born again and converted to Christianity?

I read that about the Cherokee a couple of years ago. It was from the Cherokee in Missouri. Their DNA tests showed middle eastern, Jewish and a significant number of the Males had the Y chromosome of the Levites/Kohenim. So they are not a LOST tribe; they are (if anything) a lost branch of a known tribe.

Thank you, Steve!

I've always called you a "gentleman and a scholar."

Thanks for finally convincing me!

At least, you'll hear the truth.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

Would those be the commandments that man says god says?

How many biblical scholars have you read or known, AV1611? I'd say zero. I have been affiliated with biblical scholars for years and I know from the inside that it is definitely not a field where just anything goes

 

[Hoghead1]

What biblical scholars told you TK that Paul was homosexual? The general consensus is that Paul definitely did not like women. No question about that. However, I have yet to hear any biblical scholar arguer he was homosexual.

Amazing the things you find in a book when you study it.

 

[TLK Valentine]

See my last post. That was pauls understanding.

And if the Bible scholars who beliee Paul was gay are correct, that certainly would explain it.

Having feelings beyond your control for which both your God and your countrymen say you should be put to death for would certainly put one off living...
