There are hundreds of religions in the world. Many claim super-natural experiences and events. My question is, why should I beleive that the Bible is the word of God and not all the other holy books. Why Christianity? Why is it the only true religion?

The word 'universe' is not there. I doubt they'd have a perception of the vastness of space at that time. However, in creation week the stars were made also. So God, by the Genesis account, created the Earth and Stars, and Sun. That sounds like a description of what people would call the...

Thank you for your reply. However it did not address my question. Of course all true Christians are filled with the same Holy Spirit. But i'll be hard-pressed to believe there isn't an extreme division within Christianity, to the point where un-Christ-like things occur, which certainly isn't the...

I don't think Genesis is describing at all how the universe works. It's describing how the universe got here. I interpret the Bible as I think it was intentioned to be interpreted. Obviously the parables or the beast coming out of the sea in Revelation meant to be literally interpreted. The...

No I haven't but I have read many books (both pro-Creation and pro-Evolution/Big Bang). In fact I just recently found a website called Answersingenesis which has a lot of information on the subject. I realize that the evidence does support, or at least doesn't disprove Genesis. But thanks...

Ok, well I am moving our little discussion about science and the Bible over here. We were discussing the big bang...and the Bible's validity as a source of scientific information. In reply to your last post, where does the Bible say the world is flat?

Right right, yeah sorry. I just love science....as it is God's wonderful masterpiece.

Agreed. But do these saints all agree on doctrinal issues? In heaven will there be cons. and libs. still fighting over whats acceptable to do on the Sabbath? OK. Right. I think ecumenism is wrong. However, but I'm not talking about religion at-large, i'm talking about the division within...

That's because the answer to mans' infirmities is not in science. It's in Christ. This is the same reason Christ did not overthrow the Romans and free Israel from their opression. Though the Bible isn't a Physics textbook, it does tell how God works. If God says He created the earth, then He...

How can we believe everything Paul or John said? They too were imperfect sinners. My point being, though I don't think EGW was infallible, i think her writings were inspired by God. But how do we know which are inspired and which are just her personal suggestions, advice, and admonitions...

1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4And God saw the light, that it...

Any science concerning the past is speculative and subjective because you cannot find empirical evidence for something in the past because all you have is the present. The scientists who developed the big bang theory are surely atheists and with their pre-suppositions of atheism had to design a...

The big bang theory a good theory? It completely undermines the book of Genesis. How is the universe forming and expanding from a singularity consistent with the Bible? Acts 5:29 "Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men."

I'm just wondering what should be done (if anything) about the division amongst Adventists (and throughout all Christianity) with conservatism and liberalism. Do you think God intended that we all separate into our own factions with our own beliefs or should we all be one...? I for one...

Hi, I've been an Adventist my entire life, and have always used the King James Version. I have no problem with the King James and will probably continue to use it for a long time to come. However, I'm not gonna lie, the language, especially in the Old Testament gets a bit grueling to understand...

Praise God! This is an abundance of proof that God's law is still 100% in effect today and has not been abolished by Christ. Christ came to save man, not to abolish God's law. Christ himself kept God's commandments and we are told to follow in His footsteps. 1 Peter 2:21-22 " 21For even...

Lawmakers do not making laws according to the constitution anymore, if so, the Patriot Acts I and II would not have been enacted. They are wholly unconstitutional, but were accepted under the guise that they will provide better security.

You are not saved by the law, but by not keeping the law even if you know it is God's law and that God commands you to keep it, then you will not be saved for you are disobeying the commands of God.

If you beleive in Ellen White, she did write that their would be sunday laws enacted, repeating history. "As we work with all our might, our trust must be in God. Sooner or later Sunday laws will be passed. But there is much for God's servants to do to warn the people. This work has been greatly...

I have to disagree. God did give the Sabbath at it's creation, on the seventh-day. All the 10-commandments on the tables of stone were already instituted and laws already established. They were made on tables of stone merely to remind the Israelites of the commandments.
