Do you accept the ages of those in Genesis?

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll go in there and check it out.

Brother!

Do we all here agree man before flood could live almost 1,000 years old?

I am a man of God who walks the Narrow Path, believing and leaning on the Biblical World View of the Scriptures. I have one thing to say about anything in the Bible! "IF GOD SAID IT, THAT IS ALL THERE IS TO IT!"

Good question .... Shalom!

........, just few week before methuselah died GOD sent the flood.

If God sent the flood a few weeks BEFORE he died, and since he was not on the Ark, just how did that work? :tongue3:

Just a suggestion but it is not necessary to give your exact address in your profile. This is displayed in the upper right corner of your posts and there for all the world to see.

I have to say I have never heard this position you are espousing here. It is very interesting. I disagree with it but it is interesting.

Rev,

The only thing I can relate to that is, that the water above the earth in Genesis 1 and 2 was used to make the world flood. It may have been sort of a filter to protect from some of the harmful effects of the sun. Right after the flood, the age rapidly went down. ie Abraham 175. Today, our span is about what Psalms 90:10 says.

Good advice not to give out your address. But hey, anyone could find mine on the internet if they looked long enough. I am not going to give it out but then again, do not think anyone wants to come breaking down my door at 2 in the morning.

Osmosis hahaha. A solid force between two life styles. (Or something like that)

About the question the flood before Methuselah's death
It seems odd to me that the flood would take place before the son of one of the most righteous men in history died. Would God kill such a man as to those who were evil continually, of which he was not one? I don't believe that is the case. I did a careful timeline about a year ago and determined the flood came the same day Methuselah died. God does not destroy righteousness with the wicked.

This is my opinion of course but I think I will stick with it.

A mistake that men often make is that it matters what we agree upon. God said it. End of story. Truth isn't based in what we believe or agree upon.:laugh:

So if I agree that Jesus is God and you don't (hypothetically) we're still brothers?

Jesus being God doesn't need your agreement. The truth ain't changing because you believe something else.:thumbs:

Not what I asked, is it?

The question was, If we disagree about the nature and character of God, are we brothers, as in believing in the same Christ?

Over two days now, and still no answer?

How come?

Just in case anyone might be interested, here is a wiki link that describes the "differences" between

Masoretic, Septuagint and Samaritan texts:

I believe we are brothers and sisters in any sense because we are created in God's image for He is a spirit and we must worship Him in spirit and in truth, and we are created in His likeness in our bodies because we need to grow in righteousness. Those that enter hell because of their rejection of Jesus Christ is no less our brothers and sisters for the Son of man came not to destroy souls but to save them. Being a brother or sister does not in itself imply that we are destined for heaven. This is my opinion.

We are brothers and sisters when we have the same parents. Not simply because we were made in the image of God. Those who are lost are not the Fathers. Those of us who born again have the Father in heaven. Therefore we are brothers and sisters.

james said that a double minded man cannot expect anything from God, as will be tossed to and fro by the waves, so how can the Church say Abotionbith sin and woman choice, or gay marriage both sinful and shows love of Chrsit and now acceptable? that we can say God create din 6 lietral days, but used the evolutionary process afetr that etc?
