    Question for TE's that believe in a literal Adam/Garden

    I have a few ideas of what the answer to this question might be, but I’m interested in hearing other opinions about it. Did Adam sin prior to eating of the tree of knowledge or whatever event you believe is symbolized by this?

    The Primeval Age of the World

    This is the commentary on Genesis 1 from The Pulpit Commentary. I thought it gave an interesting perspective. ------------------------------- That this initial section is not history is apparent from the circumstance that the occurrences it describes belong to a period of time which...

    Literal Reading of Exodus

    A lot of focus is put on a literal reading of Genesis, but from a YEC standpoint, Genesis isn’t the only reference to a six-day creation. As with any Bible verse that isn’t readily clear, we must find other scripture to clear up what is unclear. This brings us to one place in the Scripture that...

    Consider the Snake

    I posted this on another forum a while back. Thought I'd post it here and get some different opinions. As I see it, at least three changes had to happen here: the instinct to jump from a tree, the ability to flatten during ‘flight’, and the instinct to undulate. In what order would you guess...

    Christian Scientist and bias

    Have any of you heard the statement that goes something like this: “Real scientist that are Christians put their faith behind them and don’t let it influence them on scientific issues so as to remain unbiased”? I’ve heard that a few times and it recently occurred to me that by them “putting...

    NamesAreHardToPick - got a question

    I'm just curious about this. You have "Special Creation" listed in your "Origin of life view". I've heard this phrase a few times now. If you don't mind my asking, how does this differ from other beliefs?

    Objectivity?

    As a “fundy”, when it comes to objectivity, I use the Bible, as I believe that that is one of its main purposes. What do you use to give you objectivity when it comes to spiritual matters?

    AiG Conference

    As some of you may know, I had the pleasure of attending the Answers in Genesis conference in Waco, TX this past weekend. It was very informative and really put a lot of things into perspective (which is something that I really needed). The conference was held Friday evening and all day...

    Literal Reading of the Bible

    Just wanted to get some TE opinions on this topic. What portions of the Bible do you consider literal? I know it's a pretty open question, but I'm not looking for anything specific. Thanks & God bless

    Evolution Question

    This is an honest question that I have and I am interested in hearing different opinions. This question deals with one of the biggest obstacles that I face when it comes to evolution. How does evolution accomplish something like this? http://www.boomspeed.com/remus/wsCED03.jpg *sorry for the...

    AiG coming to Waco, TX

    Anyone planning on attending? I'm going to try, but the wife is pregnant and it'll depend on how she's doing.

    Confessions of a Young Earth Creationist

    I admit it. My opinions are basically what one would be described as young earth creationists. How can any intelligent person (and yes, I’m quite intelligent) still believe this in the face of all of the scientific evidence that we have today? Well, I have learned that scientific matters have...

    "I Am"?

    I heard a while back that the phrase "I am" in certain contexts has special meaning (bascially meaning I am God). This referring back to when God said to Moses "I Am what I Am" and he goes on to say to tell the people that "I Am" sent him. A few places in the NT where Jesus is speaking, one can...

    It's Science!

    First off, I'm kind of new here, so sorry if I get this in the wrong forum. :) I just thought I'd share something that has occurred to me over the past year or so and the best illustration of it came just the other night. Basically, I've really been noticing how far off scientist really are...

    Hello

    Just found this place a couple of days ago. I accepted Christ about 12 years ago. I live in Austin, TX where me, my wife, and two daughters attend Shoreline. I found this place by doing a web search. Looks like it's a wonderful place. Anyway, that's me in a nut shell. God bless, Remus
