Before I came here, there were two issues in the Bible I didn't quite understand.
1. How Jesus was mocked during His trials.
2. Why the Bible says not to "cast our pearls before swine, else they will trample them and turn and rend us."
Now I fully understand.
So all that hoo-ha was you playing games and baiting people? You do realise that is against the rules?The verse has always been about belief. It's the different answers that are said that I learn so much. You said it, but no longer claim it. Why? Only you know the truth. Others say it, yet assure me or any audience here, they are not followers. I am intrigued by these reasons for leaving a faith. The top of the lists are boy meets girl, she gets pregnant, boy wants to take responsibility, girl kills baby, boy could not do anything to save his child, and believes there is no forgiveness and chooses to hide the pain.
That can't be your story; that would be weird. There are so many stories, of why christians leave the faith, yet God says he will never leave or forsake you. Let me tell you, sometimes Gods glory shines most in what we have to overcome. The bible never says wolves become sheep, it never says goats become sheep. The bible says the Good Shepherd lays his life down for the flock. There are lost sheep and they will be found. I hope and pray one day you see this.
The verse is a powerful verse. And yes I know it's context.

a vacuum has perimeter of influence or it would not be a vacuum. The perimeter of influence called space had to be created
In a nothing state you have darkness and cold which is the state of nothing.
When science tries to recreate the two pieces that collided to provide life as they know it, at best would have to follow the same physics and laws that were set from the beginning.
Basically in order to make the same good batch of chocolate chip cookies all ingredients, and the way they were added and mixed together, and size and heat of oven and position on tray would have to be the same.
So, "Nothing" is more then the absence of light and heat (energy).
Didn't it ask how abiogenesis works (or came from)?
The only question in the video that seems "difficult" to answer is the question regarding the Big Bang, and that's because it tries to phrase the question in a way to suggest that the Big Bang was an atheistic creation ex nihilo. The Big Bang isn't inherently atheistic, and many ministries encourage people not to use it as an infallible argument for God's existence because of the chance that it wasn't the actual creation event of the Universe (at least not with the term Universe used to describe everything material that exists). It may not have been an ex nihilo event at all.
Science doesn't know how life originated. There are many things science is still ignorant of which is why scientists do research.
Do you really think that the mysteries of faith can be answered via the physical nature of science?
True ignorance is the rejection of the supernatural because it doesn't conform to natural laws; because that implies an understanding of the properties of neither.
So, what is wrong with the bible? To you it's a theory. To me it's the truth.
If God came to the earth, would you believe?
However, it DOES require the faith that the only truth is in the provable, physical world.
Are you saying you believe due to fear?If God DOES exist, you're out of luck.
