All I am doing is using the scientific evidence to show what science has to say about what we read in our Bible. The evidence is often based on things like archaeology and artifacts. We know that Adam and Eve lived in the Tigris Euphrates river valley around 6,000 years ago. We also know what science says about the people living there at that point in time. I do not see any contradictions, if you look at the original language. If you see a contradiction then maybe you are confused between the traditions of man and what the Bible says in the original language.DENYING the flood, opposing Scripture, 'scientifically' trying to explain the flood away instead of going by what Scripture Says Clearly to all the children .
Ok, listen, we are in a thread about Noah's flood, so lets just do a Bible study and see what we find. Sense you seem to want to take a good close look at this. Lets start with Genesis 7:15 " So they went into the ark to Noah, by twos of all flesh in which was the breath of life."
What we want to look at here is the word "Breath" RUACH. In Genesis chapter one we see the world life chay many times, what is new is the word Breath in Genesis 1:2 Breath is translated "Spirit" of God. In Genesis 6:3 we read: "My Spirit (Ruach) will not contend with humans forever"
I know you like to fight and argue about everything but if you look at the Hebrew word Ruach then you will have an idea of what was on Noah's Ark. Clearly Rauch clarifies the word "Clay". The Bible does not say all life will be on the Ark. Genesis 7:15 says: "Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life in them came to Noah and entered the ark."
So the key word here is "Breath" or "Rauch" not Clay or life. This is what you have to look at when you read the Bible. Just what is the meaning of the synergism when you put these two words together. I have a book I was looking at by Peter Corning called: "The Synergism Hypothesis". Corning is a evolutionist so I am sure you want to throw his book in the garbage and consider his PhD to be worthless. Still I am going to go to Professor Corning and try to understand what Synergism has to do with evolution.
Can you follow me at all here, we are talking about Rauch (Breath) and Clay ( life) and just what happened 6,000 years ago in evolution when God put Rauch and Clay together in a synergism that we read as Breath of Life. God breathed life into man at this time.
syn·er·gy
ˈsinərjē/
noun
noun: synergism
- the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects.
In Genesis 6:7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
I can clearly understand the people who believe that the Bible says the whole Earth (Erets) was destroyed at the time of Noah in the day of Noah. But science tells us otherwise. The physical evidence shows us that we are talking about Adamah the "ground" and we are talking about Rauch and the Breath of life of the Spirit of God.
You have to reject science and history to say the earth was destroyed in the day of Noah. Because clearly what was destroyed was the Adamah, the Garden of Eden was destoryed. But Noah saved all of the plants and all of the animals on the ARK.
Do you remember Genesis 2:7 "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." We have the "dust of the ground" the "breath of life" and we have man who became a "living soul" We have a synergism between two ancient Hebrew words. breath and life, living and soul, dust and ground.
Also we have four rivers in the Garden of Eden and this can be used to help us find where the Garden of Eden was. There is a lot more here to go on. Things like gold and onyx stone. This also could help us to find where the Garden of Eden was located. Lots of clues for us to work with.
