Right. It means A Whole Lot.

...nothing at all


OK, Do you have anything of substance to say, at all? Ever?

I'm still standing in awe of your discovery of the other unreported "not sun" that provided the "day and night" during pre-solar creation. But then, fundy's tend to thrive on creativity.


That's nice. What's your excuse for your "six 24 hour days" not matching the geological data? At all? Is this the God Made It Look Old idiocy?

Be good enough to explain how that worked. I could use a horselaughor two right now.


So I've heard. So, was light just kind of lying around, or did it come from something? If the latter, then what was it, exactly? And how do you know? Or, as it appears, you've just made up a pre-sun sun to keep your doctrine afloat.orning, one day.“

Evenings and mornings, matey? You may have heard of them. As the world turns, different parts face the sun, or your hitherto unknown light source, you get evenings and mornings. . And when was it created, and why was it replaced by the sun?

I'm sure you don't. <Laugh>

"It" being what, exactly? A pre-sun sun? A jar of lightnng bugs? God's flashlight?

You seem to have said that before.

Yeah, I reckon we're all in agreement on that.

You need a bit more than the simple existence of light to use it as a unit or measure of time, don't you?

OK, there's light, and there's darkness. How do they become measurements of time? You seem to be missing some vital components. <Laugh>

And how long are they?

Sonuvagun.

I 'm not sure how much of this kind of profounity I can digest, I may need t o sit down.

How long is a day? How long is a night? If you;'re using them as a measurement of time, you'll need some to compare them to, won't you?

"Usually"?

So you just say one each of equals 24 hours (which it doesn't even on earth) and Call It A Day. <ROFL>

Again!? Didn't it work the first few times?


The one where an evening and a morning are always 24 hours. Especially if there's no sun.


"Take, eat, this is My Body" isn't a metaphor. Why can't you just believe what our Lord said? Oh, I forgot. It';s a Hard Saying, who can hear it?

Except what our Lord explicitly said, because "well He can't have really meant that", can He?

Have fun straining at those gnats and swallowing those tasty camels.
Well you’ve proven my point enough. His says there was day and night, evening and morning and you say no there wasn’t.

In the beginning there was light causing day & night as God is the light, therefore no sun was needed, this is the same light that we will experience in the new earth to come.

It was on the forth day that God created the sun placing it in the firmament, which is the same sun that will go dark on that final day.

75 Bible Verses Prove a Flat Earth
Bible verses can only prove that a flat earth concept is mentioned in the Bible.

Proving that it really and literally exists is a another area and you failed in that.

Bible also "proves" your thinking is in kidneys, Jesus is a door, that Nero was a literal animal or that Augustus ruled over the whole world.

Without understanding what you are reading, you will get into many needless (and quite silly, really) labyrinths.

I don’t understand why you posted that video, the guy doesn’t make any sense at all in his discussion. I’ve shown his error and included time stamps to make them easily accessible. If you’d like to address any of them we can certainly do that.
I posted the video for you to understand the Genesis better (because you had some questions about it). For some reason, you made it your quest to "debunk" the expert, instead of learning something new. I am not interested in being his advocate, take the information or leave it, your choice.

Genesis was not written in our era, with our concepts. The cultural rivers' part you did not like, is actually the most useful part, because its the basic realization you must make before approaching Genesis (or any text from a different culture). The overall culture, concepts, genre and purpose is much more important to understand than to know what a specific sentence was supposed to mean.

He did not go sentence after sentence, but mentioned some examples, for example that God resting is not God not working, but God being inaugurated in the temple of the created cosmos (Greek term, sorry).

We don't have to understand Hebrew & Greek to know what is written in the Bible.
Only if you rely on experts and theologians to translate it for you. The same people you dismissed in a previous post as somebody who have no clue.

You are full of contradictions.

I have to disagree with you, if we all went down this path nobody would believe in what the Bible has too say.

This is a logical fallacy.

We do not have only two choices - to read everything as it seems or to not believe anything at all. And there are plenty of people (actually a majority of Christians) who do not believe everything in the Bible literally, but in the same time believe in all theologically important points.

Like in most things in life, a moderate path it the one. But it takes some effort, learning about the text, about the context, about the cultural concepts and you seem not to like this effort, you want to have it quick and easy and best with a tingling feeling of conspiracy. You do not respect the Bible enough to learn it seriously.

If God is the light there can be no evening, which is what is described in the new creation. God is everywhere present, so nothing would be able to escape His light.

Will that be at the fake pre -rapture or at the real rapture?

If gravity will be pwned at a fake pre-rapture, then it will be pwned at the real rapture.

Either way, gravity will be pwned.

So my point stands: evolution is just a theory.

Maybe you saying this b/c my beliefs aren't your beliefs, I don't know.
I read the Bible every night & other related books such as the lost books of the Bible, so to say I don't do not respect the Bible is very upsetting.

No, I am saying it because you do not care about how to work with it properly, you prefer a youtuber to tell you or your own intuitive reading, which is wrong. You ignore or dismiss people who actually study the era, culture and language of the Bible.

You do not respect the Bible enough to learn about it.
