I don't think so.Yes, in fact, ch. 2 focuses in on day 6 when both Adam and Eve were created. It was a very full busy day. The Fall, however, could have happened days, weeks or even years later.
You meant this:We'll see.
Or,
There were 7 popes named Paul. Five were fallen. The six was. The seventh was John Paul, who died after 33 days. The next was John Paul II, under who's reign the sex abuse scandals rocked the church. Revelation is all metaphoric, but likely the Lord's return is imminent.
Unfortunately i don't recall by heart, only that there's a passage in Job, forgot the rest, i'll have to look it up...The Bible, Hieron, does in fact preach a flat earth and a geocentric cosmos. This was quite common in ancient cosmologies. Where did you get the idea it didn't?
I see no difference between your process theologian and a new age theologian when you continually insist you know more than God who is the author of the bible. As God told Job 38:4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.Look, BornAgain, I am not a New Age theologian. The least y u could do is label me properly. I am a process theologian. Process is a major movement in contemporary Christian thought. And note: In serious theological discussions, it is a major no-no to cast aspersion on the Christianity or character of your fellow Christians. You are breaking the rules of this forum. Hence, your post is wholly unacceptable to me. If you can't be respectful, I am not interested in talking to you.
Also the religious principle which ToE is build upon was around during the NT times yet Jesus never mentions it.
That won't work, Extraneous. If Gen. 2 is referring to a kind of second creation, what happened to all the people in Gen. 1? The Bible never speaks of any preAdamites or anything like that. Also, since 2 was written before 1, the writer did not intend it to be a second creation.
Well, I wait to see what you come up with on Job. Also, there are about 70 major passages in Scripture that claim a flat earth. Funny, you missed those in your biblical readings.
The circle of the earth refers to the apparently dome-shaped sky about the earth. In Isa., God sits at the top and looks down, seeing everything happening on earth. The purpose of the passage is to say God sees all. Therefore, the prophet had in mind a flat earth. Otherwise, if spherical, God could only the top.
The Garden and everything in it was created the 6th day, that explanes everything i.m.o.You appear to be contradicting yourself, Extraneous. If the animals in 2 are not the same as in 1m, then yes, we are dealing with a kind of second creation. And yes, you will have problems accounting for all the personnel in Gen. 1.
I agree Genesis 1:1-2:4 is from a different writer than Genesis 2:4-25.
because it has a contradictory chronology.
In Genesis 1 it's about "God", and from Genesis 2 on it's "the LORD God".What makes you believe this?
Genesis 3:1No it doesn't. The animals in chapter 1 are not the same as in chapter 2. Chapter one refers to real animals, but chapter 2 might refer to Satan the serpent. It seems likely that this may be the case, seeing how Satan the serpent is mentioned shortly afterward.
