    What do you mean "Non-denominational"?

    Hey, you learn something every day! I also did not know what that term meant. I signed up as non-denomination, but since reading all the posts, have discovered that the church I attend is really a Word of Faith church. I didn't think it was backed by any denomination per say, and I still am...

    Long or Short

    :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: HEE HEE HEE, Jim I think the reason hair seems to get thicker when it greys is because the strands are stiffer. Every pulled one out to see how stiff it is, maybe also not as fine as the other ones. I just have my hair dresser razor cut my hair. It really...

    Long or Short

    How cool to see how ya'll look! My hair also seems to be getting thicker, but I keep it short. And, since I've always been blonde, I just keep it dyed Light Ash Blond over the counter and it turns out several different colors because of all the grey. Also, my hair is so much healthier after...

    "not historical events are recorded." did you mean to type non-hinstorical events are recorded?

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    I don't know where you get the idea, Jim, that the Bible is not a history text. I recall a few times when discoveries were made as to tombs and historical sites found in the middle east that were found in direct relation to what scripture said. Everyone knows that the earth was once covered in...

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    Oh, now I see. You can't see it unless you scroll up until after you post your reply. Ok, anyway, my husband thinks there were other creation. Sometimes I wonder too, but then I have too many other wonders to worry about that! About multiplying, I think they would have to have relations...

    Jim, how do I put your reply in my reply (quote message in reply)? Because I forget what you said.

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    That's an interesting concept, grateful, about their children being sinless and still in the garden. Of course, the Mormons believe that God's plan was that they eat so that they could multiply. What would have happened then if they never ate of it? Would they have ever multiplied? My pastor...

    A question about WoF

    When my husband and I first moved from Oregon to Iowa we were invited to a WoF church. We had never heard of it, but it changed our lives. I have not been to any other ones, but from what I have heard, it just depends on the minister of a particular WoF church, because I have heard some people...

    Underhishadow, I like that verse, 1Cor. 2:14. I'll read more in Corinthians. Right now I am stuck in Genesus. There is just so much to learn in the Bible!

    GratefulGrace, what do you mean, "if they would have children in the Garden," they would have been sinless?

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    My past experience was with Mormonism. They believe that God intented for them to eat of the fruit of knowledge to that they could then have sex and bring the spirit children down from Heaven, and that before they ate, they would not have know to have sex. I just don't buy that anymore. But...

    Wow, you are so wise, Jim. I'll have to go back and read Gen again. Do you think Adam and Eve had kids before they were tossed out of the garden?

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    That is how I have felt sometimes, Jim, that a lot of scripture is symbolism. But, then how do you know which is and which isn't. I believe there really was a tree and a garden and that they were destroyed during the flood. That is when God planted it in Paradise, where we will go when we are...

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    Thanx, Dave, for going to the trouble of searching the internet for me. I didn't like any of the sites except the one rapturechrist.com/tree_of_life. It was awsome and answered a lot of questions. It even went into Rev. and explained a lot of things I would never have understood. I don't...

    Tree of Life and Knowledge

    I just discovered that there were 2 trees in the Garden that Adam and Eve were not supposed to eat from. They ate of the Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil. Gen 2:9 mentions both trees. I did not know that! Anyway, it got me to thinking: This chapter also talks about rivers and where they are...
