Yes, they evolved into kangaroos from the original created kind that God made.So they evolved - and in just 6,000 years? Or, don't tell me, they are a mutant form brought about by the Fall.

Yes, they evolved into kangaroos from the original created kind that God made.
If you would like to learn more about how this process took place relatively fast I would recommend reading my post here:
God's great creation
By naughty things you must be referring to the direct defilement of animals...the people were having sex with animals. But no, that is not why God flooded the earth; although it can definitely be an attributed reason.
God flooded the earth as to preserve the human genome from contamination.
Additionally, the wage of sin is death. All have sinned against their creator on their creators land, eating their creators plants, drinking his water. Each breathe you take is a gift from God.
Why are you here? To learn? To teach? To fight? It certainly doesn't seem like you are on this Christian forum to learn a Christian perspective, rather, to ridicule it. Is that your purpose here? To ridicule what you clearly don't understand?
Nowhere in the Bible does God say that Jesus is a God.HI stamp,
The believer is not so concerned with physical evidence. You see, for us, if all we're going to entertain as truth is only what we can find physical evidence for, then we'd never make it to Jesus. There is no physical evidence that he was the Son of God, even though God himself said that he was, according to the Scriptures.
Which was added to the Bible hundreds of years later.There is no physical evidence that he was raised from the dead three days after his death, although again, the Scriptures tell us that he did.
We are back to you believing the stories men wrote.There is no physical evidence that he ascended to heaven as his disciples looked on, although the Scriptures tell us that he did.
So, hopefully you'll understand that the believer's faith never rests on the evidence of the natural properties of things. For many of us, and I purposefully use the word 'many' rather than 'all' because you will find those among us who are not a part of us just as the first apostles describe in their day, our faith rests on the foundation that God's word is true. He said the whole earth was flooded and describes for us some of the evidences of that, such as all the mountains were covered and that all creatures that move about the earth died.
It seems it doesn't take much to get you to believe something does it?The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than fifteen cubits. Every living thing that moved on land perished—birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died. Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; people and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark. The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days.
The waters covered the mountains more than fifteen cubits. 'Every' living thing that moved on land perished and it lists birds, livestock, wild animals. 'all' creatures that swarm over the earth and mankind. 'Everything' on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrilss died. 'Every' living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out. People and animals and creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth. The Scriptures seem to take an inordinate amount of effort to impress upon the reader that everything on the whole earth died.
Then we are told that the water flooded the earth for 150 days. Now, we've had a lot of pretty awesome floods recorded on the earth, but there's honestly no way that a local flood will flood the earth for 150 days. The standing water is going to be absorbed by the earth and run out where there are valleys between the mountains. When we accept all the descriptions of the flood, it's really very hard to understand that it could be a local flood.
But, I do understand that there are a lot of people, even among those who call themselves believers, who don't actually believe all that the Scriptures describe.
That's why He's God and you're not.Some people did naughty things. Still doesn't excuse drowning everyone.
That's true.Nowhere in the Bible does God say that Jesus is a God.
I thought we were given free will? if we mess up then don't we pay for it by going to hell? what's the point of having free will if every time we exercise our free will God steps in?Additionally, the wage of sin is death. All have sinned against their creator on their creators land, eating their creators plants, drinking his water. Each breathe you take is a gift from God.
It's based on the fact that it's never happened yet. Basically, the conditions for the evolution of the exact same species would have to be the exact same sexual and natural selection as the previous one. As you can understand, the selective variables are virtually endless, therefore extremely unlikely. Probably approaching the odds of a god/s existing.and this claim base on what scientific source? evidence please.
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.Sure, unless his name was Jesus. Then it's not.

Actually, you believe what men wrote. There's a difference.Hi stamp,
So, as anyone can readily discern, you and I have different understandings of the very foundation of truth. Such a difference cannot be reconciled between our two worldviews.
You responded to my post:
That's not what I said either. I said that God called Jesus His Son. Jesus called God his Father.
You also responded:
Oh, I don't know. People seem to be having a difficult time getting me to believe that the creation is millions and billions of years old or that we evolved as time went along. The Scriptures speak of men 'believing the lie'. They speak of a great deception being sent upon men. As I say, it's a different worldview. You believe man, I believe God.
God bless you,
In Christ, ted
We are given free will and we often use it to sin. Yes, if we sin we go to hell, BUT, Jesus paid the price for our sins by dying on the cross. Jesus was God's sacrifice to humanity. Jesus lived the perfect life and died sinless. If we believe in Jesus and accept His grace we do not have to suffer the consequences—Jesus did for us!I thought we were given free will? if we mess up then don't we pay for it by going to hell? what's the point of having free will if every time we exercise our free will God steps in?
2 Timothy 3:16 states that all scripture is God-breathed. Men wrote it on God's behalf and every word is inspired by the Holy Spirit. The writing style is attributed to the writer but the context is from God.Actually, you believe what men wrote. There's a difference.
Yeah, I understand your assertion. All you have though, is a pseudonymous copy of an ancient manuscript, claiming god told them to jot something down. Now you tell me, who is gullible, the one making the claim, or the one who accepts it?2 Timothy 3:16 states that all scripture is God-breathed. Men wrote it on God's behalf and every word is inspired by the Holy Spirit. The writing style is attributed to the writer but the context is from God.
