Hath in these last days spoken unto us by HIS SON, whom HE hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also HE MADE THE WORLDS.
Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of his person, and
UPHOLDING ALL THINGS by the WORD of HIS POWER,
when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high
Being made so much better than the angels, as HE hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
My Comment: Atoms, Molecules, DNA strands, etc. Jesus held and now holds everything, as it says, in His Hands. Makes me think of that old bible school song, "He's got the whole world in His hands."
He's holding everything in its place. He's THE WORD of GOD.
Some scientists DENY Biblical involvement: Darwin, Hawking and others. It's a shame others who follow their lead, may miss out on seeing New Jerusalem; seeing Jesus and the Light of Gods Glory.
Maybe to some it's just not real to them because man doesn't get any credit for their Discoveries? Simple people just believe what God has revealed, in His Son.
There is a book of Remembrance in which is recorded the conversations we have about the Godhead. Angels lean in to hear what we speak out. Ought we not to keep a lid on our weak faith concerning these matters?
I once had zero faith in these things until I read the Word of Almighty God; repented of my sins and received Salvation.
I have a brand new belief system. I'm learning something new every day. The other day I learned that every Jewish word that ends in HIM is speaking of the 3 persons of the Godhead: like Elohim
( I'm not sure how it's spelled, but this'll work)
And Goodnight dear ones.
and the earth and heaven were created at the very beginning but I was without form, I would say. And the spirit of God was there and as that explosion spread out into the universe; the sun was created; and in fact scientists say that the earth split of and collide with another planet that create the moon early in that process as they have technology where they can go back in time, seems unbelievable to me but that was in the same scientific show where the moon was created early and that was how they knew. But did you ever notice the order of things as it is good proof in the consideration of that question; and or others that you had asked.
That is my understanding of that great and tremendous explosion still expanding today.
It is wrong for me to judge you and if you are serious; I will attempt to answer some of your questions and some thing that I can understand about one of the questions, The other thing is that this site has a search block and you can find a lot of things there and also you can easily find all of the previous comments on any issue. I do not know if you have done that but it is nice to know. So your questions.
Most of the "Scientists?" believe in a big bang - In the beginning God created the heaven (singular) and Earth - The Sun and Moon had not been created until V :16 - what was the Earth spinning around then?
The big bang was a massive explosion an
Tgank you for your help.
We can see what we see. To me science is a point of view; beautiful to consider along with scripture. I believe in "let God be true and every man a liar". God doesn't lie to us. All we like sheep have gone astray to other interpretations.
I was an astrologer for 22 years: so I studied planets and stars. Rather than ask God, I did it myself. I had books of planet movements, forward, retrograde, forward again. All to interpret a seekers life. I wasn't getting rich off it, but I had notoriety. People believed in it through me. It is occult and in the Bible it carries a death sentence. Horoscopes are a lie. They draw us away from what God plans for our life. The stars didn't explain MY life. Then I met our Creator! It's burned into my brain the first time after that, I was sitting on a swing looking at the sky and all I saw was God in his creation! I wept buckets.
God hung the planets, stars, comets, asteroids and everything to circle the Sun. He orchestrates their movements. Earth is anchored by Him; protected by Him. Pure unadulterated faith in God keeps us safe in his care. The moons travel with the planets they are attached to. Sometimes forward, sometimes fixed, sometimes retrograde. We don't know why, because who can search out what God does? Someday only Gods Light will be our source. Don't you want to see that? A whole new view to be inspired by; with Him as the Creator of inspiration.
God has been teaching me all of my life since I was a child. I just don't know why. We're not just floating endlessly on this rock we call home: living, dying. Traveling aimlessly through it. Like ants, we don't see the foot thats coming down on us. We've been given the opportunity to search for WHO made all of this. Ants never look up.
God is Beautiful, through and through. Come and see the Goodness of the Lord!
Receive Him as Lord and Savior.
I believe your approach may be backwards.
The best advice I can give you concerning understanding Scripture was found in a book called "How to Enjoy the Bible, by E.W. Bullinger.
If you believe in our heavenly Father and His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, then take the leap.
Read the Bible and BELIEVE it!!!
Read with common sense. In other words, keep and separate what is literal from what is FIGURATIVE. Not a page of
God's word can be turned without His use of figurative language.
Take advantage of Parallel Bibles, Bible Concordances, Bible Dictionaries, Etymological Dictionaries, Bible Commentaries, Lexicons, etc. to enhance your understanding of Scripture. The Bible was NOT written in English.
Build your foundation of belief.
Instead of comparing everything you understand of the world and trying to match it up with Scripture, now you can use Scripture to determine whether what you hear in the world is correct or not.
God Bless you in your journey.
Also for me, it is about the nature of my research and my thinking, I check it as soon as I think about it. The problem is that I wake up early, when it is still dark, thinking about it and if I don't do it then; I can't remember my thoughts on it in the in the morning. I have research all issues; all in vanity; and it was enjoyable; except I was younger then and now; it is time for good nights of sleeping and a regular life style,
I once thought that I would become a writer when I got older and that sleeping in the day and writing during the nights; my best hours for thinking would become my lifestyle and that I could do it as God is with me; but I don't think that He minds if I quit because I feel that I have done the job that He trained me to do.
And I think deception is deceiving people and we know that the Bible does not agree with that. So I would say that it say that we are suppose to discus the Bible of course as Christians as other, of course discus their religions also and in so doing; we can look after one another. Take care that no man deceives you and that you deceives no man; and that is why we discuss scriptures to be sure we do that.
I did not come to discuss scriptures, I came to do the job that I was trained to do; and I think that I have done that. If I am right on with what I say scriptures say about deception; then I know that my job is done, and it is time for good nights of sleeping and a regular life style,
Most of the "Scientists?" believe in a big bang starting life, and Apes turning into humans.
Strange but I can't seem to find that in any of the bible translations. Another thing I 'll run by you Misheal is this
They also tell us we are spinning around the Sun and the Moon!
I read in the Bible - In the beginning God created the heaven (singular) and Earth - The Sun and Moon had not been created until V :16 - what was the Earth spinning around then?
No Christian has yet to been able to give me CH & V to show me it spins and set my mind at rest, So I keep coming up with questions they would rather not hear All they can muster is Isa 40:22 But Hey! a CIRCLE is not a Ball
Any picture the scientists present are all CGI including the Earth
what are your thoughts on that Mate?
I'm not pointing a finger at anybody and saying "You are wrong!" All I want is someone to give me scriptural proof that i am the one that is wrong
Gods rich blessings to you and your family
I did watch a show recently: someone proved that all the planets had water at some time. Now they are ice worlds with no water or life.
Only earth has water and life. Wonder why?
Ice on the "poles". :D
God says the Moon is a light - NASA says it is solid - You told me everyone knows the Moon is solid!
So tell me this - How do they know - Has everyone been to the Moon? - No not at all! Most people blindly believe what they are told by Scientists and NASA ( That openly displays in red "THE SERPENTS FORKED TONGUE")
I encourage you to do some research on them Science also tells us we came from Apes!!! Do you believe that?
Let God be true and every man a liar Rom 3:4
The Bible tells me - The Earth is a flat non- rotating plain - The center of what is known as the FIRMAMENT - The Moon Sun and the stars revolve around us
In the beginning God created the heaven and Earth - The Sun and Moon had not been created until V :16
Another question for you ! ....... Does it mention it was spinning?? - If it indeed does spin give me Chapter and verse because I have missed it - Because I also want to know" WHAT WAS IT SPINNING AROUND" as the SUN MOON & STARS were not there!!
Cheers Mate -I'll give you time to digest that information
are humans the only animals that can think about their own thinking
My answer Yes, we are the only animal with a mind.
are humans the only animalsto have language? No, other animals have repetitious language. Look at a sparrow for example.
can animals thinkand reason No. animal develop their Brains, repetitiously,
how doanimals thinkwithout language once again, animals do not think; but they develop their Brain repetitiously and Neuroscientists, evolutionists and genetistist call it thinking as they believe that thinking comes from the brain and people do not have minds.
can animals thinkarticle no. they see articles and develop then repetitiously;
Also I call it semiconsciously developments as opposed to subconsciously thinking. My Theory of mind development is sub too conscious to unconscious. Animals are semiconscious too conscious to unconscious. We can do both but generally we only go the the semiconscious stage unless we decide to use repetitions in our development. If we go further than the semiconscious repetitious stage accidentally; we develop disorders. .
can animals thinkrationally NO; Brains only repetitiously
what doanimals thinkofhumans,
depends how repetitious we are, and they are. it depend on we and they but, of course animals do not think but you can develop them repetitiously quite a bit; and they get use to responding to you and others depending on how you treat them;
however there was a man on twitter who had a bear trained repetitiously and had a picture of the grizzly with his head in the bears mouth. i advise him that that was still a wild animal who any second could eat his head. he was never heard from on twitter after.
I will try to address your quires as best I can - possibly not all in one email - If I do manage to - Well and good!
Firstly what do I think God would say to a person asking God "Do you hear my prayer?" I think he would have said - "Of course I hear your pray Peter! My Holy spirit dwells within you! I hear your every word speak, in prayer or ingest - Your every thought, and in fact, I know exactly how many breaths you have taken , and exactly how many you have left.
Do not think that you were stupid asking that question! - Even David in the many Psalms he wrote kept crying out "Hear my cry oh Father, hear my cry oh Lord. Even though the Lord had done many things for him,
I believe that the scripture "where two or more are gathered etc" is related to the prayer of agreement in the verse above
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20 "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
I'm am not a bible teacher by any means But - I am sure this means that there is more power for God to act when two or more UNITE IN prayer As in -
Deuteronomy 32:30
How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?
You see there is power in numbers - when people get together pray and do anything in the name of the Lord
But!
Even when you are alone God still hears you - Did he not enter you life when you asked for salvation?
Matthew 21:22
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive, and you shall have them
Well Mate! I will leave it there for now and work through your questions slowly - you will hear from me tomorrow -
Gods blessings to you and your family
By the way - Where do you live?
If the book of Genesis is one cohesive book, then why are the events of Genesis chapter 10 concerning the dispersion of the children of Noah given to us BEFORE the cause of their dispersion in Genesis chapter 11? (i.e. the scattering of the sons of Noah in chapter 10 took place BECAUSE of the events that happened at the Tower of Babel in chapter 11)
If Adam and Eve were the first two humans on earth, where did Cain find a wife?
If Adam and Eve are the ONLY two people from which all humans descend from, then why does God make a point to distinguish between a Jew and a Gentile? ( 1 Corinthians 10:32)
Why do we have different races on the planet after 6000 years of inter-breeding? A change in the location of a person does not make him a different race!
Why does the HEBREW definition of the word "Gentile" refer to a FOREIGN nation from the nation of Israel?
Why is the word "man" in Genesis 1:26 given in plural and defined as "mankind in general"?
Why is the word "man" in Genesis 2:7 given in singular form, with the article, denoting the particular man Adam?
Some of these topics may require research; ( 2 Timothy 2:15).
Remember, the Bible was not written in English!
There are many resources available to help gain a deeper understanding of the Word of God: Concordances (Strong's), Interlinear Bibles (Green's), Commentaries, etc.
May God be with you in your quest to understand Scripture!
I now know that the Adam made used the leaves to make a covering and that God used skins to do so.
Thank you and please comment to me again of you think that I have what God made wrong.
If the Moon is a light, as God proclaims it to be - how come NASA claim they have been walking around on it!? You must be joking. It reflex light; and so it gives light; and everyone knows it is solid; as for NASA, ask them, However, there is nothing wrong with jokes but i never seen joking on so many questions especially all at the same time of seriously looking for serious information on the Bible; and it seems to me, not the thing to do; as for those other questions; I couldn't refer you to appropriate verses.
Thank you for your comments.
The two separate accounts of creation can be found in Genesis 1:26-29 and Genesis 2:4-7.
Genesis 1:26-29 is the 6th day account of the creation of the different races that make up mankind, both male and female. The blessings and instructions given in Genesis 1:28 were given to those particular people.
Genesis 2:4-7 is the 6th day account of the creation of the specific man Adam. In Genesis 2:7, God gives us detail as to HOW both Adam and ALL of mankind are formed by Him (from the dust of the ground), but these verses concern only the particular man Adam.
Genesis 2:15-17 are the instructions given to the man Adam that are different than the instructions given to the rest of mankind. Adam was that particular man chosen by God to "till the ground" ( Genesis 2:5) and be a farmer in God's Garden; and try to resist Satan.
Genesis 2:21-23 is the formation of Eve FROM Adam. This is not creation of mankind, both "male and female" as found in Genesis 1:28, which concerns all of the races. This particular lineage is very special for all of mankind. It begins with the divine act of our heavenly Father taking a "rib" from Adam and creating Eve (one from one + the Lord God) and ends with the divine act of the Holy Spirit through Mary bringing about the promised birth ( Genesis 3:15) of the Lord and Savior of all the earth (one from one + the Holy Spirit) ( Isaiah 7:14).
I believe that you are partially correct concerning Adam. Adam is the first man and Eve is the first woman.. OF THE LINEAGE THAT WILL BRING FORTH THE MESSIAH; as 1 Corinthians 15:45 states. The other races were created on the 6th day along with Adam. We know this because God ENDED all of His creative work by the end of the 6th day ( Genesis 2:1, 2).
Also, if the light of the Moon is supposedly reflected sunlight - Why is it colder in the moons light than in its shadow? (Not a theory - But a proven fact)
Furthermore - When I observe the Sun and the Moon in view at certain times - With the Sun fully risen in the East - Why is the Moon only partially lit in the West?
Should it not be fully lit if there is no interference from the so called GLOBE Earth?
"Debating cosmology of the creation of Yahweh has zero to do with salvation I readily admit -
But all to do with DECEPTION!
In Mat 24:3,4
When the disciples asked the Lord - "What will be the sign of your coming and the end of the world - He simply said - take heed no man deceive you - YES! i understand he was talking about false Christ's.
But regardless, deception is designed to deceive! And it presents its self in a multitude of ways.
What I am simply trying to point out is this - If this so called "Giant step for mankind" on a so called solid surface of the Moon is presented as fact - Then what do we do with Yahweh's words of truth in Gen 1:16 that states, it is a LIGHT ( Check out what Wesley's comment about light!)
PLEASE!!! - If you cannot reply with fact or scripture - I won't waste my time in reply!
Sarcasm and ridicule were never attributed our Savior - So if you proclaim to be a Christian Please follow his example!
My ultimate result from anything I post is simply this - "What is the TRUTH" and weed out DECEPTION- "Ignorance is no excuse - If an alternate point of view is presented - And willfully ignored!"
As I said before - If anyone can give me fact and or Scripture to prove what I believe is wrong, then the truth will set me free! - If you cannot, all I ask is you have an open mind to research what I have said - Then I pray, the truth will set you free!!
God's Blessing to all who read this
We have examined the Scriptures and come to different conclusions. This is the beauty of the Word of God. Let us all keep learning and growing in His word.
I will leave you with some final thoughts and questions concerning these particular topics.
The information concerning the two separate and distinct accounts of the creation of man and the separate instructions given in Genesis 1:26-29 from that given in Genesis 2:4-7 can clearly account for the creation of mankind in general and the creation of Adam in particular.
If we are all ancestors of the singular man Adam you say accounts for Genesis 1:26-29 AND Genesis 2:4-7, how have we such distinct and separate races upon the earth after 6000 years of interbreeding?
One race mating with the same race does not produce another race or all the races; neither does migration.
If we are all derived from one man, than we would only have one nation to speak of because we would all be of the same lineage! How then do we in the third dispensation of time (when we are all with God again) still find a distinction between the house of Israel and the other nations? In Revelations 21:24, we find the different Kings of the nations bringing their glory and honour inside the gates? (i.e. they live outside the gates; and we are all with God at this point in time.
We are ALL of the family of God, i.e. of one blood ( Acts 17:26, 1John 1:7); but all are NOT of the same lineage.
If God makes a distinction between the lineage of Adam and the nation of Israel from every other NATION upon the earth, shouldn't we!
