Context, my friend, context! God did not say that "all the world---"; Caesar made that decree, and as far as I know he (Caesar) thought that his empire encompassed the whole world, so this may be just a colloquism OR he could have believed it literally, or it could have just been wishful...

Two facts you are assuming that may not be accurate; 1) to cover Mt. Everest 2) over 11 feet of rain per hour for 40 days 1- you don't know factually that what is now Mt Everest even existed then; it just may be that "any hill over 500 ft. was created post-flood." 2- Although it may have been...

Nothing to do with the "FAITH" argument. The point is, when science directly or subtly, contridicts the Word of God, which are you going to believe? Now obviously, I hope, I'm speaking of ANY area that the Word does address; not some area where there are just differences of opinion! As I've...

So one of them is going to stay home & play "housewife" huh? What's wrong with letting each one have his OWN health ins. through his job like most people? Ever heard of "POWER OF ATTORNEY"? OK, what's the next "DIRE NEED" that they should be getting that only a CIVIL UNION can supply?

UTEOTW, I'm glad to see the truth is beginning to dawn to you! You're now saying what most of us have been trying to say for hundreds of posts; "Just accept what God said, as He said it! No more, no less"

Careful, TC, comments like this will get you accused of keeping true "intellectuals" from becoming a Christian. It's OK to believe God so long as you don't believe Him literally. People that do that are just uneducated, simple, showing their fundamentalist ignorance and driving "thinking"...

Calling "Civil Unions" necessary for this is ridiculous. This situation is why WILLS were invented. You can leave anything you own to anybody you wish. Marriage, civil unions, or shacking up has no bearing on this.

I read the book by Hugh Ross, and as well as I remember, his proofs were nothing more than the evolutionists use to "prove" and old earth; IE science. I would have absolutely no problem with an old earth if I were not a Christian, but this fact changes my whole paradigm.

You wouldn't by chance be referring to the settlement between Edgefield and Augusta, would you? The name of that place, if I remember correctly, was (is) Murphy Village. Yep, from all I heard about them, they were super con-artists.

Two more good "EYE SITES" (O-O-O-O-H-H-H-H) 1) Vision Simulation Site http://www.my-vision-simulator.com/ 2) Magic Eye http://www.magiceye.com/

Well spoken, exscentric , very well spoken!!!

I’ve got to tell you of my experience with a revival choir many years ago. The evangelist was Bill Glass, & choir leader was Ron Patty (Sandi’s Dad). One night he had us learning a song for that same evening, & he was taking a unique (to me anyway) to teach same. He would sing the different...

Paul of Eugene sez: Glad to hear it. Now, What does God SAY?

You are obviously having a problem with your eyes. Nothing is mentioned re: mine or God's interpretations. Please go to the "WHALES" thread for an explanation that, hopefully, you can comprehend. I'm tired of your accusing me & others of equating our opinions to God's. You have had a habit...

For some unexplained reason, UTEOTW, you seem to be totally unable to process the following fact: "We believe God, not science" That IS our interpretation!!!! You say that rock is 100,000,000 years old; we say that it is ~6-10K years old & that's simply how God created it! Or to say it in...

MARANATHA!! I think that if, when we get to eternity, we find that God was just "joshing" us about His claims of creation, He will tell us that He actually created it all with one-- "let there be--" --in less than one micro-nano-second! Think maybe?? :confused:

Dodgeball was probably my favourite. Hated playing on an organized team of anything; cow pasture football & sand-lot baseball were tops though! Never cared much for basketball except for horse. My youngest aunt (just 5 years older than me) & her friends (mostly sisters of my buddies) and me &...

Remember it vividly! One of my favorite pastimes was not a game, but aggravating bees. I would take my Red Ryder BB gun and lay down in my front yard that was covered in clover, and shoot the stems of the clover when a bee would land on a flower. The bee would usually fall in the grass...

Right on Brother!! Just taking God at His word, m'friend, just taking God at His word!!!
