I didn't get that from the post at all

Rather an encouraging of a disconnect between those who hold to evolution and those who hold to THE TESTIMONY of JESUS
Did you not read the first sentence? One would have to know all the interpretations to make that claim.

It is possible to accept the Scriptures as purely God's word without accepting the literal inerrancy of the Creationists. In particular, the Garden story need not be 100% accurate literal history in order to be divinely inspired.
i guess it would depend on what one is not accepting

No, the Bible is either divinely inspired or it is not. I believe it is, but I find that no reason to accept the scriptural interpretation of the YECs.

Ohhh the young earth creationists

And what is their position that goes against THE TRUTH?

What is the difference between us?
I'm still having difficulty in understanding your position and how it is even different from mine

I don't even know anything about what a creationist believes

And I do believe that all of GOD's WORD is absolute infallible truth

So it appears to me that all this time you thought I was a creationist and I thought that you somehow were

So if you don't mind giving me a catch up lesson on what a creationist believes I'd appreciate it

Of course the scriptures are inspired by God. They are all about Him. So much is prima facie evidence. But that does not mean they are necessarily and wholly accurate reflections of Him. I am inspired by the Olympics, but I doubt I will ever win a gold medal. And the same I suspect to be true of the authors of scripture, who, as far as I can tell, were all fallible men, subject to the philosophical assumptions and social mores of their age.

Best wishes, Strivax.

Since you put it that way, now I completely understand your side of the argument. Enlightenment is great!

Seriously? Is this middle school?
Yes. I'm just a child
Please bare with me if you'd be so kind

You are so enlightened that you should be instructing those who arent

I prefer to be clothed with you. Especially if you are a child. But I will bear with you.

That's because the law which came outwardly didn't move inwardly where it belonged from the beginning

When you read a book is it because you
L. O. V. E. the author?

Or because you're just reading a book?

Or is it because you are interested in the context of the book?
Or is it because you have to for a project?
Or is it....

We can all play a version of the What IF game but that doesn't make you argument more true.

But that won't chsnge what is TRUTH

And to those to whom THE PROMISE has come know HIM intimately and are taught by HIM and are able to effectively and rightly handle HIS WORD because they are led by HIM...HIS SPIRIT

You realize you are basically preaching, correct?

You are entitled to have your beliefs, but I would accept they will be questioned on the science portion of the forum.

It's because 1 John 2:27 and John 3:8 are TRUE
