That's why I put "or Flood" in parentheses -- in case you believed in a literal Noah.
I'm willing to drop this conversation, if you are.
You're entitled to your beliefs, and so am I.
Hey Jack can you tell me who gets to decide when they are more literal than poetic or vice versa? The scientists or Jesus?
The Jews had the Old Covenant priests that kept the teachings and the New Testament has their priests too which maintain an Apostolic line back to the Apostles.
As to Adam and Even the words used here could be two people or it could be mankind.
From Wiki:
All men came from the dust and to the dust they will return, "ashes to ashes, dust to dust."

Inan3, good topic for General Theology. I am sure a post like that would get some responses over there. Including mine.
That is true but the operative word is MAN KIND not Chimp kind or any other kind. Man WAS made in the image of God. The animals and beasts and fish and birds where made after their KIND. That is NOT what evolution teaches.
Or better, read it as fiction, since no one here has put forward a shred of proof for it the whole time I've been here.
Nothing but anecdotal, subjective claims so far.I have.
Evolution teaches to look at facts, not wordplay.

"But how could it be false? I feel good about believing it!" Yeah, not going to hold up in court.
In what testable sense? Remember, that's an important part of evidence.Nope REAL LIFE claims. It's more than just feel good. It's a new life and comes with miraculous benefits and outcomes.
lol, Jesus isn't a Creationist. Please. No need to be so melodramatic.

Testability - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaOkay explain what you mean by testable.
No it doesn't. It teaches speculation.
Good for her!Also, I couldn't help but notice you didn't even put up a token denial about the wordplay.
Sure He is. He believed that in the beginning God CREATED them male and female. NOT COMMON DESCENT as evolutionists believe.
Good for her!
Mark 14:61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
You guys do understand it's one thing for Jesus to do something and another thing for you internet theologians to do it?
Honestly, if you guys are Jesus' best, then I'm even more convinced that whole Great Commission is just being played for the lulz.
Well, having no merits of their own to work with, you have to expect fundies to latch on, remora-like, to whatever will help them advance.
The "great commission" is nothing mroe than a ploy for street cred.
Wait for it -- any moment now, Inan will be congratulating AV for his astute use of scripture, or some such.
