    Evening and morning, and the 7th day

    the Hebrew word for dawn is different, the word dawn is used in other places in the Bible,its most likely it means day. God telling His people to not plow in the seventh year is totally irrelevant, it doesnt change the command concerning the sabbath day.

    "Those Chosen" vs. "go make disciples of all nations"

    I too have answered this,but I will again. Because we have been foreknown and set apart, we are made alive. Just like the passages I provided. For example, Jer 1:5; Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born i set you apart. (He had not been born, but was set apart by...

    "Those Chosen" vs. "go make disciples of all nations"

    Your using a very common misinterpretation here. Yes, God tells us to obey him and that he foreknew us, but scripture always interprets scripture, and the rest of the Bible shows other examples of foreknowledge. For example, Jer 1:5; Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were...

    Evening and morning, and the 7th day

    Ok, I jumped the gun a bit with my last post, but not completely. Matthew 13 just says that Jesus only talked to the multitudes in parables, and whether or not they knew that, (as far as i can see) is unknown. However, the Bible which is the book God has given his people for knowledge, does...

    Evening and morning, and the 7th day

    Any person who studies writing will tell you there are different types of writing, and each author tends to have a different style. Genesis is not a figurative book. It is written as an account, the words themselves make it very clear. Like many places in the Bible, I think God expects us to...

    "Those Chosen" vs. "go make disciples of all nations"

    i am a calvinist, but im honestly just trying to make as much sense of it all, as all of us are. You mentioned "Jacob have I loved and Esau have I hated", so theres obviously some sort of election here. A passage I found dealing with the origin of faith is acts 3:16, which says it comes...

    Evening and morning, and the 7th day

    one is meant to be a chronological order, one is themed. How can you as a christian say the bible is wrong? (That was one of my minor points anyways)

    "Those Chosen" vs. "go make disciples of all nations"

    exactly, and those spiritually dead do not see their own sin. That takes the work of God.

    Evening and morning, and the 7th day

    There are 2 things which seem to make it impossible to read the word day apart from its normal meaning of a 24 hour period. The first is, each time Genesis reads, 'so there was evening and morning, the first day'. Which parts of a possible million year period is evening and morning? To me...

    "Those Chosen" vs. "go make disciples of all nations"

    Jim, consider what your saying here. Your saying that a person inherently saves themselves. That there is this option and God is just there, wishing people will love Him... read my previous post. That isnt how God works in the Bible. When God comes to people it is in majesty and people have a...

    "Those Chosen" vs. "go make disciples of all nations"

    Chief, theres one way to really think about this without worrying about different definitions of words and all kinds of games, and that is to look at what God did with people throughout all of the Bible. If you read carefully, you'll realize that God iniates everything with His people. Israel...
