561 | How many years in between Adam and Noah? | OT general | Norrie | 17243 | ||
Sorry, you're right, I was thinking Adam's existense and Noah's birth, but you did put the extra 1 in this time-I guess I got you all confused w/my mistake. :) | ||||||
562 | How many years in between Adam and Noah? | OT general | Norrie | 17222 | ||
I had to be more than that. I found an old email I saved about Bible chronology, it doesn't go into the detail of exactly how much time between Adam and Noah, but it does go to the flood and Noah was 5-600 yrs old by the time the flood came, so a thousand years is prob closer. I believe I read that Adam was still around when Noah's daddy was born but not Noah. Anyway, here it is: Jim Kalua here: Adam to the Flood Equals 1656 years: Gen.5; Gen.7:6 Flood to Abraham Equals 427 years: Gen.11:10-32; Gen.12:4 Abraham to the Exodus Equals 430 years: Gal.3: 17 Exodus to Solomon's Temple Equals 480 years 1Kgs.6:1 Solomon's Temple to the Death of Ahab Equals 116 years: 1Kgs.11: 42; 1Kgs.14:21; 1Kgs.15 :1,2; 1Kgs.16 :29 The Death of Ahab occurred in 853 BC. NIV Study Bible page 502 Total number of years 3962 [3962 plus 2000 AD Equals 5962 YEARS] The 430 years: 3962 - year of Flood Equals 2306 BC The promise was made to Abraham at age 75 Gal.3: 16,17 2306 - Abraham @ 75 years old Equals 1879 BC Gen.12:4 1879 - 25 years to birth of Isaac Equals 1854 BC Gen.21:5 1854 - 60 years to birth of Jacob Equals 1794 BC Gen.25:26 The Hyksos started to gain power in Egypt. 1794 - 130 years when Jacob enters Egypt Equals 1664 BC Gen.47:9 The Hyksos where at the height of their power around this time with Joseph at the head. 25 plus 60 plus 130 Equals 215 years. Joseph was 39 years old when Jacob entered Egypt and Levi was about 42 years old when he entered Egypt. Ruben was born near the second year of Jacobs second seven year contract. Simmion was born about the third near the fourth year. Levi was born somewhere aroud the fourth year and fifth year Joseph around the sixth and sevent year. 137 years - 42 Equals 95 years of Levi's life in Egypt 1664 BC - 95 years Equals 1569 BC Ahmose I (r. c.1570-1546 BCE), was the founder of the 18th dynasty, one of the most outstanding in the history of ancient Egypt. His principal achievement was to weaken the Hyksos, who had dominated Egypt for some 300 years, http://www.terraflex.co.il/ad/egypt/history18-20.htm#18th 1664 BC - 215 years Equals 1449 BC 80 Moses age at the Exodus plus 1449 Equals 1529 BC About the time Moses was born. Amenhotep I (Amenophis) was the son of Ahmose I, and ruled from 1546 to 1526. Thutmose I , (r. 1525-1512), Thutmose II (r. c.1512-c.1504 BCE) He married his half sister Hatshepsut Hatshepsut (Hashepsowe), d. c.1482 BC, was one of the few women to rule Egypt as a pharaoh. After the death (c.1504 BC) of her husband, Thutmose II, she assumed power, first as regent for his son Thutmose III, and then (c.1503 BC) as pharaoh. 1529 BC - 40 Equals 1489 BC about this time Moses ran away. Thutmose III , (c.1504-1450 BC), was very young when his father, Thutmose II, died and was until 1482 the co-regent of his aunt, Hatshepsut. Jim Kalua |

565 | Is it a sin to play the lottery? | Bible general Archive 1 | Norrie | 17039 | ||
Let's see, if we follow the reasoning that because it's not spelled out in the Bible, it's OK, I guess we can assume that since there's nothing specifically saying no, it must be OK to smoke crack, shoot heroin, all that kind of stuff, right? I don't think so. :) | ||||||

I heard my pastor preach on this one time. Seems it was just one of those man made rules the Pharisees were so famous for making, kinda like the one where you can't spit on the soil on the sabbath because that would be irrigation but you can spit on a rock. He had a list of ridiculous rules but I forget most of them. :) | ||||||

569 | Opinions of J. Falwell on WTC attack. | Rom 3:23 | Norrie | 16697 | ||
I would think that if the militant islamic groups' personal vendeta is against "christian america" not "secular america", they are sadly misinformed. Most of our churches are so watered down, they don't even know the gospel, much less preach it. They are trying so hard to be politically correct, they lost the meaning of the gospel. Maybe it was the Christians fault when they didn't protest over Roe vs Wade, or when they didn't protest when prayer was taken out of schools. Then they didn't protest when the gays pushed their agenda, now they all have a stronghold and won't let loose. Has anybody been on a secular, liberal forum and listened to what's being spouted there? It will turn your stomach! I was at this one for awhile after the terrorists to find out news, this is a very liberal, Godhating, alternate lifestyle promoting forum, but they were being good after the attack, seems to be coming together. Then somebody brought up the Pat and Jerry thing. Then it was back to business as usual. These people hate Christians, when Jesus talks of being persecuted, these are the persecutors. If anybody wants to see how down and dirty it really is, I'll be glad to give you the link, but be prepared to barf. These people are proud of what they are and they hate anybody that tells them different. To them, the namby pamby, feelgood churches are OK, but don't say they are any kind of sinner, why that makes you are hater, just as bad as a terrorist!!! Most Christians just hang w/other Christians, they have no idea how bad it really is out there, go take a look, it will surprise and sicken you! Oh, there was another forum I haven't checked in awhile too because it was so sickening, I just couldn't stomach it. It was called Christianity General. I doubt there were any Christians there at all, maybe one or two hanging in there, but you can't reach these people, they hate Christianity so bad, they just eventually run you off because you get so sick of listening to their drivel. They don't want to hear anything about the Word, they just want to put it down. Maybe that's where we should all go and bombard them. But then, Jesus said shake the dust off... |

570 | Opinions of J. Falwell on WTC attack. | Rom 3:23 | Norrie | 16691 | ||
DATE: September 17, 2001 FROM: Jerry Falwell WHY I SAID WHAT I SAID by Jerry Falwell Despite the impression some may have from news reports over the past several days, I hold no one other than the terrorists, and the people and nations who have enabled and harbored them, responsible for the September 11 attacks on this nation. I sincerely regret that comments I made during a theological discussion on a Christian television program were taken out of their context and reported, and that my thoughts - reduced to sound bites - have detracted from the spirit of this time of mourning. Like most Americans, I watched the September 11 tragedy unfold on television. I immediately called our Liberty University family of thousands together for prayer at 2 p.m. on the day of the attacks. On Wednesday, one day later, I led the Thomas Road Church in another call to prayer for America. On Friday, September 14th, President Bush invited me to join him, his family and administration and 3,000 others to the National Cathedral for a special Day of Prayer and Remembrance, where we asked God for His comfort, protection and wisdom. Since then, by television and radio, I have attempted to call together millions of people throughout this nation and around the world in remembering all those who died, and praying for our nation, the victims of this barbarism, and their loved ones. On Sunday, September 16, the Thomas Road Baptist Church, where I have served as pastor for 45 years, gathered thousands of dollars for the families of New York firefighters. Our members also gathered a huge collection of tools, clothing and other materials for the New York rescue and recovery efforts. My statements on the "700 Club" on Thursday, September 14th, were called divisive by some whom I mentioned by name. I had no intention of being divisive. I was sharing my burden for revival in America on a Christian TV program, intending to speak to a Christian audience from a theological perspective about the need for national repentance. In retrospect, I should have mentioned the national sins without mentioning the organizations and persons by name. I stated the deep concerns of millions of American evangelicals over America's sharp spiritual decline during the past generation. Over 40 million unborn babies have been aborted since Roe v. Wade. We have expelled God from the public square and the public schools. We have normalized an immoral lifestyle God has condemned. American families are falling apart. Because of our national moral and spiritual decline during the past 35 years, I expressed my personal belief that we have displeased the Lord and incurred his displeasure. I was asking a Christian audience on a Christian TV program to claim II Chronicles 7:14 and repent. I was calling upon the church to heed Proverbs 14:34, which says in paraphrase, "Living by God's principles promotes a nation to greatness; violating those principles brings a nation to shame." I was blaming no one but the terrorists for the terror, but I was chastising us, the Church, for a generation of departure from God. I was doing what I have done for nearly 50 years in the pulpit - confronting the culture and calling for national revival. ILL-TIMED COMMENTS My mistake on the "700 Club" was doing this at the time I did it, on television, where a secular media and audience were also listening. And as I enumerated the sins of an unbelieving culture, because of very limited time on the "700 Club," I failed to point the finger at a sleeping, prayerless and carnal church. We believers must also acknowledge our sins, repent, and fast and pray for national revival. We are all involved in a very sensitive period of national mourning. We are closing ranks and coming together in a time of great loss, as we are also facing the likelihood of imminent war. And if, in that crucial context, my statements seemed harsh and ill- timed, I truly regret this and apologize. But, I repeat, I blame no one but the hijackers and terrorists for the horrific happenings of September 11. But I do believe God's protection of us as individuals and as a nation is dependent upon our obedience to His laws. |

571 | Where was God? | Bible general Archive 1 | Norrie | 16661 | ||
American Destiny Billy Graham's daughter was on TV this morning and really gave a Solid Perspective to the country... I'll paraphrase from memory, but one of the questions the show host asked her was, "We're all so angry and we're all turning to our faith during this time, but how can a God who is good allow this to happen?"... She responded, "God is angry too when things like this happen! We come to Him now, but we've been so busy telling Him we're angry at Him and pushing Him aside. Telling Him, 'Get out of our schools, get out of our government, get out of our lives', and in gentleman fashion, He has moved away from us, He has lifted His hand of protection and blessing. What we need to do as America is not ask why would God let this happen, but we need to go to God and tell Him, 'We're sorry! We're sorry for pushing you out of our lives, forgive us, protect us and bless us'. |

572 | Are there stillborn Christians? | 1 Pet 2:2 | Norrie | 16557 | ||
Charis, I agree w/you about "cheap grace". Most people don't know about repentence or what it even means, I know I didn't. I thought repentence just meant being sorry for your sins. I grew up Cath, go to confession, say 3 Hail Marys and that was it. To me all I had to do was to believe Jesus was my Lord and Savior, that I'm a sinner, He died for me, rose again on the 3rd day and I'm sorry I sinned, I didn't quite grasp the "sin no more" concept. How many people are in that same boat? It took years before I finally realized it, I just didn't know. The main change in my life was that I was listening to preaching tapes (Copeland) and following along in the Bible, went to conventions, but I still lived my worldly ways otherwise. I didn't belong to a church either, but the few I ever visted were basically preaching accept Jesus as your Savior, never did hear what real repentence was. How can you know if you're not told? | ||||||
573 | 'Conscientious Objection' Biblical? | Ex 20:13 | Norrie | 16504 | ||
Ed, in regards to the argument about the law in the OT, what about these passages: Matthew 5 Christ Fulfills the Law 17 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. 18For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. If He is not destroying the law, wouldn't that mean the law is still in effect? |

575 | Should Christians practice nonresistance | Lev 26:6 | Norrie | 15977 | ||
You know you can't reason w/terrorists or sociopaths (sp?). They have no qualms about killing. And by the way, since God said "When you go out to war in your own land against the enemy who oppresses you... sound the trumpet... then you will be remembered before the Lord your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.", and "When you go out to war against your enemies... when the Lord your God delivers them into your hand...", it does not mean that God is against defending oneself or one's country against oppression. |

I would be interested to know what the ones who claim the 6th Comm means any kind of killing period, regardless of the circumstance, thinks what should be done to the people who perpretrated today's attack? Do you think they should be allowed to keep on killing as long as you don't? | ||||||
577 | Is inter-racial marriage wrong? | Bible general Archive 1 | Norrie | 15721 | ||
An interesting note I've thought about before is in Genesis, everything was created after it's own kind. In light of what you just said, it does seem that to make a successful marriage, you should have two of the same "kind" of people. It's definately harder to make a success when you are of different religions, cultures, ethnic backgrounds, ecomonic classes, even educational backgrounds. I'm not saying it hasn't been done successfully, but it's a lot harder. | ||||||
