    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    So then, if my interpretation does not match up with your interpretation then God did not speak would be your answer? Who then would be right? Today's evaluation of what is right and what is wrong is often evaluated as what sounds true to me or what works for me. If something does not make...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    The Parable of the Sower and the Seeds (Mark 4, Matthew 13, Luke 8) explains that there will always be weeds among the wheat, in the world and in God's Church, attempting to cause discord, confusion, etc...throughout the centuries and time of time. Unless a person understands this parable they...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    So are you actually saying that there is no way to know what God said and did not say? And that if man/woman was to quote God they would be wrong from the get go because we are not able to discern what God said? nor what is or what is not God's will and testimony?

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Inspiration is that the Holy Spirit guided the whole process of the Bible, including the order. I have not made comment of a literal 6 day creation as man understands a day to be. You have assumed this.

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    I do not pretend to know God ... I do know who God is, what His nature is, what He can and cannot do, according to His nature. The Bible tells me this since it is His word!!! I have also experienced what God can do for one who has faith, belief and trust in Him. Do not tell me that I...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    But you have faith that your assumption will be correct. You cannot see your breaks in operation when you press the brake pedal, but you assume, by faith and experience, that the brakes will work. I have faith in God because I have experienced His work in my life and others.

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Yes there are metaphorical components (statements, uphemisms, etc...) I agree used for a purpose to help explain a deeper truth. But if you look closely and read the Bible closely there is nothing that it speaks about that is untrue. Read it in context with when it was written and what God's...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    You seem to have no belief or little knowledge of the Bible so sorry to say this would seem to me, anyway, to be a pointless discussion. I need to see evidence of a transitional man in order to put my faith in evolutions claims and I do not have the thousands or millions of years to wait for...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Well I guess the Bible is all metaphorical and was not meant to be taken literally. No room for God and His Holy Spirit to operate. An assumption operates on some level of faith. Tens of thousands of years? Sounds like a hokee and convienient excuse to buy time for the theory to work to...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    So we must not look like anything at all like Abraham (175 yrs old), or Methuselah (969 yrs old). How am I going to recognize them and Jesus me? Did God not make us all in his image? Did Crist not come down in our image, so much so that he was recognized as being human? The transitional...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    So who or what was the basis of the beginning of everything? The earth, human beings, animals, etc...?

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Stupid question but what is YEC? What constituted the world back then? This is a question that I will search for in the Scriptures.

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Actually I have done some research and it is impossible for a Christian to support macroevolution because it crosses the God-limitation of God creating everything thing according to kind (Genesis 1:12). Macroevolution supports the crossing of the barriers of kind (ie. a fish can become an ape...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Yes they were not there when Christ was crucified, died and buried and rose again but Paul, Peter and Mary were. What do you do with them and the 5000 people that witnessed Jesus after His resurrection? Were you there? I do not think so, so how can you discount their eyewitness except chalk...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Nothing in the Bible has ever been falsified and it does not just contain "some" truth ... it is truth. I think you may need to pick up the Bible and do some investigative truth if you are going to make these kind of statements. If you want an additional source, Evidence That Demands a Verdict...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    The Bible is recorded history ... you better check your facts. It is history as to how the world began and how God choose to redeem all of creation through His one son Jesus Christ. It also records by prophecy when and how the world as we know it will end and how his kingdom will be...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    Please explain to me how the argument is illogical. Either God is a perfect, all-knowing, all-powerful and all-seeing and all-capable God in control of everything or He is not God. Even science has to believe in a God of this type because science has to assume some base structures of...

    Did Jesus believe in a literal Noah's Ark and Flood?

    If a person upholds that Genesis, the Old Testament, the Flood or Jonah in the belly of a whale, is metaphorical, a tale, how does one know what is true and not true in the Bible - the very words of God? Scripture thus becomes subject to man's reason, the created subject to the creator, the...
