You do not understand science at all, nice try though. It is amazing how high school drop outs with five minutes of effort know more then PhD's that have put years and years into research and study.
God speaks though science. If you read and studied your science book in school you would know that. Everyone reads the chapter on sex and reproduction. Amazing how much confidence they put in that section of our science book. I went to a private school though. So I do understand how the public school system has failed to educate. They only mange to brainwash people into believing drivel like we read in these posts.
That makes sense if you only read Genesis 1, but it falls apart when you read Genesis 2:2-3 and Exodus 20:11.
I agree, the dating methods are based on the idea that there was zero isotopic decay in materials when they were created but nobody knows that. People fail to realize that the dating methods are based on the idea that if the rate of decay remained constant and we calculate how long it would take to get back to zero decay then the material would be X amount of years old. But if that material contained decay the day it was created then that whole theory is busted.
Ok so you’re expecting that when God performs miracles that the laws of physics remain intact? So let’s say you’re riding in a boat and Jesus walks up next to the boat on the water in a physical human body, are the laws of physics remaining constant to what we know at that time?
Well Jesus said that “in the beginning God created them male and female” so that does give us an idea that the earth isn’t 4.5 billion years old because according to the genealogy records in the Bible 6,000 years would be at the very end of a 4.5 billion year time line.
That estimate is based on the contingency that there was zero isotopic decay when the material was created. What if there was already isotopic decay in the material when it was created 6,000 years ago?
The truth is, the PhD's were subjugated to years of mental abuse and brainwashing. The sad reality is, all of them come out the other end like trained circus animals. All they need to do, is regurgitate what was forcefully fed to them over those years. They can't think outside the box, they lose their ability to critically examine anything. They are just used to being fed, so when they enter the real world and the milk bottle is removed, they're lost.
God does not speak through science, whoever told you that was lying to you. God has spoken through the Bible and nowhere else.
Well said brother, I'm glad we agree on the main things, even if disagree on the peripherals.
I am not going to report you this time, but be warned, next time I well. God puts us here to build people up and encourage them. Not tear them down and belittle them so you can build yourself up.
The Bible says Peter sank because of his lack of faith. The word “miracles” as we understand it today doesn’t appear in the Bible in its strict theological sense. The Latin word miraculum is not found in the Vulgate New Testament and appears only a few times in the Vulgate Old Testament for various Hebrew terms that describe.
The word "miracle" or "miracles" occurs 14 times in the NKJV New Testament. Sometimes it translates the Greek word semeion, and sometimes dunamis.
I said it's a lie because you just made that up. you never answered the question, "who told you this" or where did you hear it or did you just make it up as it makes no sense at all.
You're welcome to express your opinion, but make sure you qualify it by stating "in my opinion" so I know it's just your opinion
No, God doesn't violate His own law, as He would if He (for example) issued a decree that people should worship Baal instead of Him. He created the Universe to work in certain ways (we sometimes refer to these ways as "laws" but God doesn't), but as Creator, He can and does sometimes overrule one of those ways. Otherwise, the Flood would not have happened, the Israelites wouldn't have crossed the Red Sea, and Jesus wouldn't have been born of a virgin.
