  • Homeschool Mom on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Please pray for my children and others who have grown up in the Christian faith, professed salvation, perhaps followed in believer's baptism but have fallen away and are not walking with the Lord. Truly there is not greater joy for a parent who loves the Lord Jesus to see his/her children walking in truth and may I add the opposite is true that there is no greater sorrow when they are not. In these days where wheat and chaff are being separated, please pray for the lost to be found and the rebellious to repent and return and redeem the time as we see the day of His return quickly approaching.

    Know I am praying for you brother Adam. As many others here are. Peace be with you.
  • Benjamin - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    I'll pray! Thanks for sharing, I have been in similar situations, and from my experience I can say that I believe God will show you the way if you're just patient and prayerful and attentive to God's guidance. He will make a way for reconciliation. So don't be discouraged, God has a way! God bless you!

    Thanks Richard

    Scientists base their data, like carbon dating, they set the point of calculation on the oldest thing they could verify the date of the object. Sunlight causes the formation of C-14 in the atmosphere, and radioactive decay takes it out, so the accuracy can be 1000's of years off. Nothing on this earth has been dated for millions of years. Also, they measure the amount of time it takes the light to travel from a star to get to the earth to date millions or billions of years. On day 4 when God placed the great lights the Sun and the moon and the stars it was instantaneous in 1 day.

    Scientists also say the earth was one landmass called Pangaea and over the earth's history of billions of years the mass divided due to the tectonic plates called continental drift. You may not agree but I believe this was done in the days of Peleg. In the Hebrew language, the name "Peleg" means dividing by a "small channel of water" and is also root associated with the meaning of an earthquake. With God, all is possible so I take this verse as literal.

    Genesis 10:25 (KJV)

    And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided;

    Richard, you are right, in Job 41 many commentators say it is a crocodile. If one would read Job 41 you will see this creature is not any creature that's here today. I also agree with you that things we have been taught have created blind spots (scotoma) and unless we clear our minds before we study we will not hear or see the truth, the preconceived ideas in our mind will block what we are reading. As Jesus said, "because they seeing see not" "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear". The number of days and evening and morning throughout the Bible means 24 hours. No part of evolution can be interpreted from scriptures.

    If I've wronged someone, I don't wait for a perfect time to apologize, because that time may never come. Life short. Not to mention, the longer this insult obstructs your friendship the harder it will be for you to finally apologize or even for him to accept it. When I've sinned against someone, I swallow my pride and flat out cold ask that person's forgiveness. The only way I can do this is by the Holy Spirit's conviction. If your friend rejects your efforts to mend the relationship, that's on him. All you can do is your part. I do pray that you will step forward and he is ready to forgive you and that things heal between you too. Your friendship may never be the same--but it can be better. And think of this: by humbling yourself to apologize to this friend you will be a witness of the Christ way. God bless you!

    Again, if you watch the video I suggested you will probably learn more in an hour than you have in 30 yrs about many things, I did. This guy is a independent Baptist evangelist, you will love it!
  • David Allen on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    please keep myself and my daughters and there families in your prayers
  • Phillip on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    First and most importantly I want to give praise to GOD for answering prayer to restore a friendship and a softening of a coworkers heart. There has been some positive progress, although on good terms. it is not the same as before, something, the connection that once was is still missing, There is much more progress needed , there has been a start or seeming an positive step forward on being on good terms with this individual. In spite of all of this I would ask/request continued prayers. For the purpose of context..

    My prayer request is for my friend..Daniel with whom I work...his carefree attitude and playfulness has made work more enjoyable.. He is a bit younger than me but seems wiser beyond his years. Anyway, I was unintentionally rude( an idiot) to him and it has caused an awkward situation. I want to apologize but it has been hard...I pray that GOD will provide the right time and moment. and the wisdom to know what to say... I do want to make it right... I would like to rekindle the friendship..so I humbly ask that GOD will reveal that to him, possibly through other coworkers( as there is a lot of gossiping where I work, and I have spoken highly of him to others quite often.) certain truths, it was never anything personal but rather just the reflection of the fact that my people skills leave much to be desired.. via dream. I also want to pray for his salvation. I can not determine if he is a christian or not. He seems to be a decent person. I pray that he will come to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, if he does not already

    So to summarize...Please pray for my relationship to get better with a coworker. Daniel..someone who has made the most positive impact on my life by helping me with my struggle with and to somewhat overcome SAD (Social Anxiety Disorder). Unfortunately our relationship has dissipated due to my own stupidity at times/(lack of people skills ) and it truly does break my heart that we don't have what we once did.
  • David on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    please pray for Kristie and myself , pray the Lord gives her strength and courage to face what is before her , pray that the walls and things that have separated us be removed once and for all
  • Cindy - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    You made the best and most important decision when you accepted Christ as your personal Savior.
  • Richard - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Then you do not believe what God proclaims Skip, watch Kent Hovind's creation series #1 (there are 7, all outstanding!) If you have not watched this guy your missing some great stuff. On youtube. The Bible says "IN THE BEGINNING", period. I promise im not trying to be ugly but the fact is we(pretty much all of us) have been brainwashed since kindergarten because of dinosaurs (Kents #3 video) and cavemen and not being able to rationalize the time frame because the first book they handed us in school was something like "learn about dinosaurs" - that lived 450 billion years ago! Dinosaurs are all in the Bible, but the word dinosaur was not created till the 1800's, the word used in the Bible is dragon, leviathan etc. Job is a good example
  • Taylor Broadwell on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago

    The smallest of all three me"s

    is in my youngest memories..

    In the green pastures i will forever find her there ...

    Beside the still waters she plays without a care...

    By her tiny right hand God led her to this place...

    He let her little body fall

    And set a choice all Gods children face...

    No words were spoken by her Heavenly Father that fleshy ears would hear...

    Her soul was gathered in God's love that innocently was without fear...

    He gave her the choice of live or to die..

    She chose to live and she told her Heavenly Father why..

    She knew by death ... here she would remain..

    In the presence of God's love .. no words can explain..

    She answered

    "" i would like to live so i can play""

    God restored her soul. By his gift of life. ...is the very breath she breathed..

    Where she had fallen as dead upon the grass ..

    Her first death has come to pass...

    God opened her eyes

    She was able to see...

    There was no veil to divide....

    God opened her ears to hear.. upon her heart he wrote his law for her life she would abide..

    He planted a seed and its hidden in her heart...

    Such a gift found in the words she sews....

    In Gods love she continues to grow..

  • More on the Godhead in the Bible on Acts 3 - 4 years ago
    Reply to Rod:

    Using the Search Box on this website; type in the words, Trinity or Triune. Those 2 words ARE NOT in the King James Bible. Cover to cover.

    If you type GODHEAD, you'll see 3 scriptures be fetched by the search engine. Read these.

    Acts 17:32

    Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

    Comment: people will buy paintings of the Godhead and decorate their walls.

    Romans 1:20

    For the invisible things of HIM from the creation of the world are CLEARLY SEEN, being understood by the things that are made (us), even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

    Colossians 2:9

    For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead BODILY.

    Comments by me. Genesis 1:1 is clearly understood. God Wills; Jesus (The Word) speaks; the Holy Spirit performs. "Time. Force. Action. Matter". Four things all scientists have tried to explain throughout time. Earth is the only planet that has water.

    Christians have the mind of Christ. We're all enabled to see the Godhead at work; on earth and in our lives. How? The Holy Spirit indwells us in our born again spirits and teaches us the Word of God. Seek and you will find.

    If we can just read the Bible and accept what is written in it; believe, apply to our lives; and like little children do: believe what God says about Himself. If you doubt or debate, you're in a ditch. Your faith is a shipwreck.

    God is on the Throne. Jesus sits at the right hand of God, making intercession for The Saints of God. That's us. The Holy Spirit is present on Earth, PERFORMING what is in the mind of Jesus Christ.

    How hard is that to understand? The Godhead works together every moment. A Bible ENCYCLOPEDIA shows all of the Holy Spirits names. There are many. Learn all of them. Praise and worship that He is at work in your life. Do not grieve or quench the Holy Spirit.

    Thanks
  • Chris - In Reply on Genesis 1:1 - 4 years ago
    I would say that the NIV would be the most popular, used extensively by individuals & Churches. Then, the KJV, NASB, RSV, Catholic version, GNB, ESV, etc. would all be popular depending on the Church, age of the reader & ease of reading.

    But for accuracy, I would still nominate the KJV & NASB as the most preferred. Others here may have their own views.
  • Charles R Peek on Genesis 3 - 4 years ago
    Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: When God made Adam, He made him a "body", a "soul", and a "spirit"

    Genesis 2:7 "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, (that's the body,) and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; (that's the spirit, ) and man became a living soul" (body, soul, and spirit.) According to Luke chapter three, Adam was the son of God."

    A son of God is a creature that is sinless at the time of his creation. So in the Bible you have "Angels" called sons of God, Adam is called a son of God, the nation of Israel are called sons of God, Jesus Christ is called the only Begotten Son of God, and when YOU get born again, and made a new creature, you are then called a son of God.
