NO ONE has ever shown me where science contradicts the Bible.
I wonder why ..... it has been done and known for thousands of years - from YHVH'S WORD!

But no need to talk about this. You have taken another path, listened to other voices.

They try but they always fail. Although sometimes it almost seems like a tie. There are paradoxes to deal with. For the most part there is overwelming agreement between science and the Bible. Satan always seems to come up with something though to try and deceive people the way he was able to deceive Eve.

Of course, it's much, much more similar for humans and chimps, because humans and chimps diverged from a common ancestor much more recently.
6And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

According to evolutionary biology, all living things on Earth are descendants of a single common ancestor, called the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA). Biologists have used DNA sequences to trace the LUCA to an aquatic microorganism that lived in extreme temperatures, possibly in a hydrothermal vent, around 3.9 billion years ago.

Life goes back to the second day of creation 4 billion years ago. Or the beginning of the third day. It just seems strange that everything that ever was in the cycle of life, we were there. Or shared a common ancestor with all life.

I meant science, being worldly, of the flesh, of the world, necessarily

does contradict the Bible. edit in: as you just proved in the post 143.

They trust science, which is falsely called knowledge, yet is leading to destruction; which they willingly follow --- the Voice of science, instead of the Voice of Jesus.

The only voice I listen to is God. This is what Psalm 19 makes very clear: The heavens are telling the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims His handiwork. So the most basic reason that God delights in His creation is that in creation He sees the reflection of His own glory, and He delights in his work.

Paul said people are without excuse. Romans 1 20 "For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse."

Job 12:7
But ask the animals, and they will instruct you; ask the birds of the air, and they will tell you.

Psalm 19 at least is truth.

Stop posting what is not from God if you do actually listen to Him.

Historically, too many ideas posted are not from Him, nor from His Word, nor even possibly true.

Science does not contradict the Bible. If you have a contradiction then show me. You seem to think there are many contradictions. So it should be easy for you to at least come up with one. But then like you say, we do interpret the Bible different. This is where Gerald Schroeder shows us that science copies theology. We see this in the big bang that was a religious belief long before Science verified it was true. I had a dream about this when I was around 8 years old. God showed me the universe was expanding. So the Bible came first and science is able to verify that the Bible is accurate and true. Science gives a witness and a testimony for God. Because Science studies Creation or the Universe.

Jesus did not discuss evolution
Of course He does in the Parable of the birds and the tree. We know now that a tree is a whole eco system onto itself. I have a big bush in the back yard. I use to try to trim it but I quit because it is a whole eco system and it is best to leave it alone. Actually it is on my neighbors property but it keeps trying to expand onto mine.

We are told that the Cedar trees in Lebanon are more beautiful than any tree in Eden. This is the wood they used to build the Temple and Solomons house for all of his wives and children.

If you trust Jesus, He may deliver you from the pit.
He says He will save everyone who does the will of the Father.

Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.

According to evolutionary biology, all living things on Earth are descendants of a single common ancestor, called the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA).
Technically, genetics says that. Evolutionary biology accepts that finding, but it was added to evolutionary theory from genetics.

Life goes back to the second day of creation 4 billion years ago. Or the beginning of the third day. It just seems strange that everything that ever was in the cycle of life, we were there. Or shared a common ancestor with all life.
The last great advance in living things on Earth was eukaryotes. The rest has been an elaboration on that theme. Humanity is unique because God gives us a living soul directly. It's not a biological difference.

It is amazing that they tell us everyone is descended from pond scum but they can not tell us who is descended from Adam and Eve in Eden. They can figure out the cohan gene but that is about it.

If we read the book: "What would Jesus do" It is not so easy to do the will of the father. Some people would say no one is able to.

Love God. Love your neighbor. So simple. Yet so difficult. But on those two commands hang all the Law and the prophets.

We are to love our enemy because who knows if they will make it to Heaven or not. Remember David Wilkerson. You could cut me up into tiny pieces and every piece of me would still love you. I know Nicky Cruse. He came to our church twice. Even he prayed for me. For those who do not know this is a reference to the book: "The cross and the switchblade".

Proverbs 25:21If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. 22For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you.

God has a sense of humor. "Be kind to people who are mean to you; it's good for your soul, and it will constantly annoy them."
