I'd love to see them...please show me, b/c when I look up aztec carvings all I find are snakes and mammals; skulls and suns

aztec art - Google Search

you referenced the Book of Job, chapter and verse plz.
First the Behemoth as described in Job 40:15-24, bad translations call him a hippo but how many hippos have you seen with a tail like a cedar tree. Then there is the Leviathan, Job 41 which appears to be what most people call a fire breathing dragon, makes you wonder did the stories come from the mind or did they come from past realities. then on u-tube "man and dinosaurs alive together" and this guy shows old mayan ruins with dinosaurs carved into the stone, there is also another video of ancient carvings and cave drawings of dinosaurs, which would seem impossible if they lived millions of years earlier

LOL you think people could kill dinosaurs? Really? They would destroy humanity very quickly.

Genesis 9:2 - "The fear and dread of you will fall upon all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air, upon every creature that moves along the ground, and upon all the fish of the sea; they are given into your hands"

Human beings are very resourceful, if we could kill mammoths and elephants using the most primitive weaponry, I'm sure humans could have come up with some method to kill them. Plus we often think of dinosaurs being like in Jurassic Park, but as far as I am aware, nobody knows how they behaved or how violent they were.

I have to say, God brought two of every kind to the ark, Noah didn't have to hunt for them, And dinosaurs could of easily fit on the ark, since they start from a egg, It doesn't say which God included, but from the book of Job, and from cave pictures, and aztec carvings, It is clear to see some dinosaurs have been present along with man since the flood

RealTruth101! since dinosaurs did start from eggs and with the hypotheses that eggs were put on the ark instead off the Dino itself, how would Noah know the male from the female egg??.........just curious...........Dave

If God works by evolution, as so many of you trust, maybe the new heaven and new earth are coming as quickly as they can. Millions of years in the making.

Blessings,


A son of Adam,

now a son of God,
but not slowly evolving into one over millions (or even thousands) of years,

Job 41 talks about a Leviathan; which is a sea monster...not a land dinosaur...could have been a whale for all we know.

Can you post the youtube vid for us plz?

Everyone knows that Youtube is NEVER wrong!:D

Are there any Baptists here?

And beyond that, are there any Baptists who trust in the Word of God, from which not the smallest letter or stroke will pass away, at least as much as in scientists? I'm not asking for MORE faith in the Word, merely as much.

I understand if there's not.


Blessings,
H.

Cool, care to post an excerpt of one of these scientist's findings?

I'm not sure what you are looking for but ICR and Answers In Genesis have well educated scientists on staff and froma all various fields of science. I would start there.

mammoths and elephants aren't predatory.

Sharks and whales have been killed for centuries. Most dinosaurs where small and not much larger than a sheep. That being said I rely on the Bible as my final authority and that is clear enough that dinosaurs and man did exist at the same time.

I think I'm ON to something here! :thumbsup:

Hebrews 13:8
"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, yes and forever."

We're becoming children of God as quickly as His divine evolutionary process will support! I mean, who is to say? Maybe "the twinkling of an eye" was metaphorical; maybe a twinkling in God's eye is more like a few million years!

No wonder I'm not Christ'like yet. And of course, that will make the Judgment Seat of Christ kinda long, or the way up in the clouds where that "twinkling" will happen (I'm sorry, "evolve.")

Just look at how far we've evolved morally from just a couple of hundred years ago. Heck, compare our superior morality (and marriage commitment) in the Christian community now to how backwards it was then, or at the 1st century!

And for those who have doubts, be patient with yourselves. There's every reason to believe that you just haven't yet evolved into faith to dispel those doubts. Give yourself a few thousand years of discouragement, despondency, and doubt, and you will see evolutionary progress.

One day you will wake up, just like the fish, with new sprouting leg nubs of faith which will grow into full grown legs of faith and your doubts will be history!

It's just, after all, a matter of time - and progress.


There's every reason to trust in such a consistent God who never changes, and the scientists who explain his processes.

Praise God,

H.

they're in the water. Most dinosaurs doesn't negate the few species that would have ripped us to shreds...again there is evidence of dinosaurs in the Bible.

A whale? you may want to read it again, I haven't heard of any type of whale that his back has rows of shields, tightly sealed together, each so close to the next that no air can pass between, or the sparks of fire shoot out of his mouth, and smoke pours from his nostrils, it also appears that while this creatures home is the sea, he can traverse on land because his undersides are like jagged potsherds, leaving a trail in the mud, and that he laughs at the rattling of the lance, which would mean he's not afraid of being attacked on land by a horse and rider.......not to many whales I've seen walking on land. I don't know how people post u-tube vids, if someone can tell me I will

oh! I don't think God had Noah take dinosaur eggs, but I was refering to how small a dinosaur could possibly be when it begins its life, baby dinosaurs would of been no larger than a small dog, and now that I think about it actually since God was behind the gathering of animals, He may of brought the dinosaurs in the eggs, because God knows what sex each egg contains. The whole thing must have been remarkable, since the animals came by two's and they were not fighting or attacking each other, I must of been the most amazing thing to witness.

My question is. If Noah had dinosaurs on his boat, then how do you explain that dinosaur fossils are over 60 million years old? And we know for a fact they are because of Radiometric Dating. Did noah live 60+ millions years ago?

I know because the bible says so.

I'm sorry but I don't understand the answer. I'm asking you if Noah lived over 60 million years ago?
No, he did not. Neither did the dinosaurs.

Can you explain to me why the ocean is still increasing in its salt content if the earth is millions of years old as you believe? If it is this age, it would have reached an equilibrium at some point long ago. Scientists know this, but they can't explain it, so they dismiss it. It is not in keeping with faith in science.

If life evolved as I think you believe and anchor your faith, why are there no transitional fossils, but only ones with fully formed functional appendages? Darwin's whole theory hung on the assumption that these transitional form fossils, although admittedly not available when he lived, would be surely found and prove the theory.

Believing God's Word changes lives, morally, spiritually. As far as I know, believing in scientists doesn't directly improve one's moral or spiritual life.

Let me ask you a question. If I trust in God and believe His Word, and then eventually die, will I be worse off for having believed His Word if life is in fact millions of years old and the universe is matter and energy, shaped by pure chance? Will my life have been somehow a failure? If so, how?


Thanks,
H.

The realtruth is radiometric dating is a flawed science, can you explain why baby Dima a famous baby mammoth, one part of the animal is 40,000 RCY (radio carbon years) and another part is 26,000 RCY years old, that to me alone is reason not to put a whole lot of faith in radiometric dating. plus there are many scientist who have reported that this form of dating is very unreliable, And it is based on to many assumptions to make it good science.
