Outranking Reality

[Mling]

It's worth a grain of salt, if you ask me.

Ok, how do you define "confound?"

Who cares how I define it?

My only point is, if you think God is the Author of confusion -- like He says He isn't -- you didn't get it from the KJV.

(Maybe you got it from the footnotes of your Amplifailed Bible, but you didn't get it from the corpus of the text of the KJV.)

Ok then...the KJV says that God "confounds," instead of "confuses." Whatever.

You are taking the KJV with a grain of salt now, are you?

I'll stick with the classical.

Translation: "I don't wanna have to deal with all that other stuff because it invalidates my point. So I'll ignore it and pretend it isn't there."

You got a decent reason for ignoring all the other states of matter, or did I get it right just then?

Since you're so gung-ho to try and convince me of something I said that was wrong, here's my post again:

The universe is made up of time, space and matter -- what is called the continuum.

The Bible says:

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

• In the beginning = time
• heaven = space
• earth = matter

Notice the triad of triads here as well?

• time = past, present, future
• space = length, width, height
• matter = gas, solid, liquid

For God to have created the continuum, He would have to be outside of it, else He is a part of the pre-existing continuum itself, and thus not the Creator.

You're limiting God to His own continuum -- a big mistake.

Please highlight the word(s) that are wrong, or I'll continue to ignore your whining about whatever it is you're whining about.

I look forward to your reply.

AV, do you ever get tired of just chasing your tail? Wouldn't it be refreshing to actually make a point, or have a real thought sometime?

Never.

Wouldn't it be refreshing to actually make a point...

No.

... or have a real thought sometime?

-- Who? me? 'Backwater' AV?

No.

Exodus 14 - "During the last watch of the night the LORD looked down from the pillar of fire and cloud at the Egyptian army and threw it into confusion."

 

[TheBear]

Exodus 23 - "I will send my terror ahead of you and throw into confusion every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run."

 

[TheBear]

Deuteronomy 28 - "The LORD will send on you curses, confusion and rebuke in everything you put your hand to, until you are destroyed and come to sudden ruin because of the evil you have done in forsaking him."

 

[TheBear]

Joshua 10 - "The LORD threw them into confusion before Israel, so Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely at Gibeon. Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Horon and cut them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah"

Can God outrank reality?

I think you're onto something AV ....

Okay. Here is your mistake.

• time = past, present, future
• space = length, width, height
• matter = gas, solid, liquid

That bit there is your mistake, because there are many more than three states of matter.

I explained that to you already, in THIS post, but you seem to have ignored that, preferring to "stick with the classical" even though this is ignoring and denying reality.

But then, reality can take a hike, can't it? Whatever it takes for you to justify your beliefs. Just cherry pick whatever bits you like and ignore everything else.

(BTW, string theory implies that there are several more spatial dimensions as well, up to ten or eleven. This would cause additional problems for you.)

If your not saved He can send a strong delusion.

Possibly the delusion that you are saved.

 

[Lion Hearted Man]

You are taking the KJV with a grain of salt now, are you?

AV also outranks the Bible, in addition to outranking reality.

 

[Split Rock]

Great would you like to share with us your study of the scriptures that pertain to this? Or did you somehow plan to teach us the Bible without having studied the Bible first?

I used to be a Christian, but that is hardly necessary. Couldn't God make use of me for His purpose, even if I never read scripture?

But it says so in the KJV1611, as the Bear showed you. It also says the opposite. That's why we say the bible is filled with contradictions. You say it isn't, because you want it to be the inerrant tool of your own making.
