I wasn't quoting you, but you insinuate that the accepted word of God is a pack of men's lies.Never said "it's all a pack of lies."
God allows free will mankind to learn and grow in wisdom. Jesus never forced anyone to believe anything.
And obviously the Gods allowed Lucifer to rebel.
I don't blindly accept evolution, proof is in the fossil record. However it is fair to say you blindly accept the pseudo-biographical creation story of the Hebrews.
I wasn't quoting you, but you insinuate that the accepted word of God is a pack of men's lies.
In any case, you have contradicted yourself: suggesting that the Word of God is not in control of the Word of God in the hands of men.
So...I ask again, which is it? Is God the Word, the Author of the word that shall not return unto Him void...or is He not the Word, nor in control, and powerless to have providence over His word in the hands of sinful men - not in fact [all] powerful?
No.I don't blindly accept evolution, proof is in the fossil record.
You blindly dismiss it, using ambiguous arguments of unbelievers.However it is fair to say you blindly accept the pseudo-biographical creation story of the Hebrews.
The fossil record has been compromised countless times by flooding. Its unrealistic to believe the stratum has been undisturbed over the course of many thousand years. They may be able to date rocks (if that is not flawed as well) but they cant use rocks to date fossils accurately because flooding mixes everything together. Flooding creates stratum, uncovers it again, and recovers it yet again, countless times. ToE is just too big, and too complicated to say that its anything but a fallible theory. I wouldn't stake my soul on ToE. What does it profit, if we gain the whole world but lose our own soul? Such scriptures are important for us to follow, but if we just discard them and instead follow a fallible theory, then we only hurt ourselves. ToE, like politics and religion, distract us from following the commands of Christ.
Yet you imply Christ our LORD lied a lot.I don't think I contradicted myself, did you set a legalistic Pharisee trap of some sort? I missed that.
God is God, he is Living truth, the Word of truth.

So they made Pauls words equal to Jesus words. Same goes for the other apostles, men who often stumbled over the teachings of Jesus were "suddenly" struck DIVINE!
Jesus never commanded anyone to believe in young earth creationism.
The idea is yours. That somehow God is just along for the ride, a mere Captain of the ship He set adrift.ScottA, it definitely does not assume that creation is greater than God. That's a totally irrational reply. Where did you get that idea?
...You assume that your partial assessment of things is conclusive, not knowing the end from the beginning. And yet, there is One who knows...and you presume to place Him in the role of Ruler only, rather that Creator and also Finisher.We do experience evolution every day, Berean 777. In fact, we experience it moment to moment. No thinker thinks twice. Moment to moment we are new persons. We are continually evolving. And that happens because moment to moment, we feel an initial aim coming from God to help us become more beautiful. So moment to moment, everyone also experiences God. In the Christian mystical tradition, evolution goes hand in hand with a mystical experience of God.
No.
Why do you think they are looking hard for the missing links, and try to sell us fossils as being missing links, which are refuted later, usually in silence.You blindly dismiss it, using ambiguous arguments of unbelievers.
Christ confirmed Genesis, so you must think Christ lied.
Rather the opposite...He never commanded us to follow worldly scientists either.
Agreed, but I have NO fear of anything science might find about Gods material creation. I take the speculations of science for what they are. But more than just a theory, God is here now among us. Jesus is right here right now in spirit.He never commanded us to follow worldly scientists either.

But is is good to seek evidence for God and the Bible content using the scientific method.Its fallacy and idolatry to seek God in science.
That Satan rebelled earlier and then deceived Eve is not an issue. God created him earlier, too, since the angels watched as God created the world and they rejoiced (Job 38:4-7).* The crafty beast had already fallen before he began working to trip up Adam and Eve.
* Adam and Eve arrived on earth as two adults, previously educated. They spoke the same language as the beast.
* Life had already evolved on this old earth; Cain and Able made contributions to a religious order. "Flocks" and "fields"???? There were many more people than just Adams family.
* After killing his brother, Cain decided to leave his parents, he fears tribes out in the world. God even agrees, puts a "mark" on him. Cain finds a wife among the Nodites.
* Imperfection of Gods children may be inevitable, but Sin is a choice.
* Paul never knew Jesus, he never heard Jesus preach the original gospel, he brought his own Pagan beliefs to the remixed gospel that emerged after the cross. Paul and others are simply wrong to speculate that one man brought Sin into the world. Besides, to follow the story as it is written in the Bible it's more accurate to say "one fallen angel" brought sin into the world.
Hmmm....That Satan rebelled earlier and then deceived Eve is not an issue.
Try the difficult path of having a relationship with God in the search for truth rather than the easier path of a relationship with a book.GOD HAT ON
