1 | Inspiration extent to every part | Bible general Archive 1 | moedee | 29041 | ||
I Greek You in the name of Christ Jesus! "Study to show thyself approved of God, a WORKMAN that needeth not to be ashamed, Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth." 2 Tim. 2:15. This forum helps Gods people to do that. My question isn't trying to set no one up, I think any time you talk about Gods word there is a win - win situation because the devil is defeated. Now the WHO said something happen between Gen 1:1 and Gen 1:2 is God. "In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth" Gen. 1:1 "The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters" Gen. 1:2. That is was not originally so we know from Isa.45:18 Now the Prophet Jeremiah records a vision of the time Jer.4:23-26 So my question on Inspiration extension between the creation of the earth and it becoming "formless and void". I was seeking to understand a time when God account of the destruction of the Pre-Adamite Earth. So the latter part of your answer I would agree with inspiration doesn't mean that every detail in history is included in Scripture, but it was just a question seeking an answer for which I thought this forum was for. No Harm Intended!!!!!!!! "Peace Be With You Until We Meet Again" |

Greetings Moedee! No harm! :-) I was just curious as to why you choose Gen. 1:1 and 1:2 to discuss inspiration. I thought you might be wanting to really discuss the "pre-adam theory". I have written on this issue before. I think that there is no Scriptural evidence to support that there was a race of people living between Gen. 1:1 and 1:2. Here is part of what I wrote previously: ********************************************** "Look at Jer. 4:23-26: "I looked at the earth, and it was formless and empty; and at the heavens, and their light was gone. 24 I looked at the mountains, and they were quaking; all the hills were swaying. 25 I looked, and there were no people; every bird in the sky had flown away. 26 I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert; all its towns lay in ruins before the LORD, before his fierce anger." The questions that must be answered in looking at a passage like this are: 1) What is the context? 2) What is the time frame? 3) What cities are mentioned? The context of Jer. 4 is clear. The Babylonians are coming in from the north to attack Judah (Jer. 4:4-6). This attack is part of God's punishment for Judah's sin and rebellion. The time frame of Jer. 4:23-26 is the near future, not the distant past. The cities mentioned in Jer. 4:26 refer to the cities of Judah, not ancient Demon cities. Jer. 4:23-26 is simply a passage (in an apocalyptic style) describing the near future destruction of Judah by the Babylonians." ******************************************** Thanks for the response!
