242 | Is Seth really the third child? | Gen 5:4 | New Creature | 96297 | ||
The following verse specifically states that not only did Adam and Eve begat sons, but daughters as well. Gen. 5:4 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: |

243 | Who are the sons of God in Genesis 6:2? | Gen 6:2 | New Creature | 108096 | ||
EdB Since Scripture no where gives indication that angels can pro-create, or that their numbers increase, and the fact that no indication is given that new ones are created, then to assume that they can reproduce, cannot be supported by Scripture. So unless someone can provide me with Scripture that would state such is so, at this time I must reject the notion that angels can, or ever have pro-created. See my second reply to sdtaylor99 The following Scripture does however make a distinction between humans and angels Matt 22:30 For in the resurrection they (referring to humans) neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

245 | angelic beings pro-create or not? | Gen 6:2 | New Creature | 108191 | ||
Dear EdB Let me clarify my position Since I see no conclusive Scriptural proof that would lend weight to the assumption that angelic beings ever pro-created, either with their own kind or with other kinds of beings, I will assume they have not been created with that ability, until proven otherwise by Scriptural evidence. Shalom New Creature |

246 | when te sons of God came | Gen 6:4 | New Creature | 48648 | ||
I don't think you understood what I said. First of all angels don't marry or pro-create. Mt 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. When Gen. 4:6 speaks of the "sons of God" it isn't referring to angels. It is merely a reference to humans who are believers in the Lord |

248 | Genesis 11:7 Who is "Us"? | Gen 11:7 | New Creature | 68325 | ||
Concerning different languages When God created Adam, Adam spoke every language in the world. Of course there was only one language in the world at that time to the best of my knowledge. But then, this is only my bad attempt to add a little humor to this thread. Blessings New Creature |

249 | Did Shem exit the Ark at 98, outlv Abrm? | Gen 11:10 | New Creature | 140616 | ||
Glenn It appears that Jacob was 50 years young when Shem died. I also find that Abraham was 58 years young when Noah died One last fact that I find amazing is that Noah's father Lamech must have personally known Adam. Lamech appears to have been 56 years young when Adam died, and 113 when God translated Enoch. Can you imagine how the accounts about the building of the ark, the the wickedness of men and the flood as well as the account of how God took Enoch were being taught to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob?

Amen Glenn Genesis appears uncomplicated in dating the parentage, and Biblical events. When the Bible says: Gen. 5:3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth: we know that Adam must have truly been 130 years old when Seth was born to unto him. Likewise Scripture says: Gen. 5:6 ¶ And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos: How much plainer can God possibly make it for us. Seth was obviously 105 years old when Enos was born unto him. etc. etc. etc. All one needs to do is take all the begatting dates to learn the time table of the early patirarchs, and flood time line. Genesis in my opinion is an accurate account of the times deaths and events in the lives of the people of God. Why people like Reese want to make it more difficult than what is written is beyond my understanding. I don't know where Reese comes up with his dates that would contradict Scripture, and neither have I seen any such proof that Scripture as it is written can not be trusted. There are many liberal theologians in the world who would have us believe that the Bible doesn't really mean what it says. If God didn't mean what He said, then why didn't He say what He meant. Some liberal scholars have even attempted to insert a "gap theory" between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2. Someone once said: "It takes four years of Seminary school to teach an individual that the Bible doesn't really mean what it says. I have as yet to find any valid proof that the Bible can't be trusted as it is written down for us. Until I see valid proof that the Bible cannot be trusted then I will continue to believe what Scripture says. Blessings New Creature |

Glenn Interestingly there are over 500 Flood legends worldwide. Ancient civilizations such as (China, Babylonia, Wales, Russia, India, America, Hawaii, Scandinavia, Sumatra, Peru, and Polynesia) all have their own versions of a giant flood. These flood tales are frequently linked by common elements that parallel the Biblical account including the warning of the coming flood, the construction of a boat in advance, the storage of animals, the inclusion of family, and the release of birds to determine if the water level had subsided.

252 | Did Shem exit the Ark at 98, outlv Abrm? | Gen 11:10 | New Creature | 140703 | ||
Ed Adam Clarke gives this commentary on Luke 3:36 Luke 3:36 - Of Cainan - This Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, and father of Sala, is not found in any other Scripture genealogy. See Gen_10:24; Gen_11:12; 1Ch_1:18, 1Ch_1:24, where Arphaxad is made the father of Sala, and no mention at all made of Cainan. Some suppose that Cainan was a surname of Sala, and that the names should be read together thus, The son of Heber, the son of Salacainan, the son of Arphaxad, etc. If this does not untie the knot, it certainly cuts it; and the reader may pass on without any great scruple or embarrassment. There are many sensible observations on this genealogy in the notes at the end of Bishop Newcome’s Harmony. (Adam Clarke) |

Another Commentary on Luke 3:36 this one from John Gill Luke 3:36 Which was the son of Cainan… This Cainan is not mentioned by Moses in (Genesis 11:12) nor has he ever appeared in any Hebrew copy of the Old Testament, nor in the Samaritan version, nor in the Targum; nor is he mentioned by Josephus, nor in (1 Chronicles 1:24) where the genealogy is repeated; nor is it in Beza's most ancient Greek copy of Luke: it indeed stands in the present copies of the Septuagint, but was not originally there; and therefore could not be taken by Luke from thence, but seems to be owing to some early negligent transcriber of Luke's Gospel, and since put into the Septuagint to give it authority: I say "early", because it is in many Greek copies, and in the Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions, even in the Syriac, the oldest of them; but ought not to stand neither in the text, nor in any version: for certain it is, there never was such a Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, for Salah was his son; and with him the next words should be connected, |

255 | What does the Bible say about tatoos and | Lev 19:28 | New Creature | 95400 | ||
Darcy yes Thank you Concerning tatoo's and body piercings, I like to tell people, that if God wanted me to have a tatoo or a body piercing, then He would have created me with one or several of these. But since God doesn't make mistakes and everything was initially made perfect by our loving Creator God, then what can I add to His perfect work? Gen. 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. God Bless you New Creature |

256 | body piercings and why not | Lev 19:28 | New Creature | 186045 | ||
You seem to be supportive of body piercing. Can you post anything from the New Testament which lends support to that practice. I know the following verse in the New Testament is addressed to woman, but I also believe it should apply all the more to men. 1 Pet 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel; 1 Pet 3:4 but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. In other words we should be more concerned about the internal inward condition, rather than outward external adornment. |

257 | Why is tithing yet preached today? | Lev 27:30 | New Creature | 94637 | ||
Dear DarcyA you stated; "We are to be blessed in giving so I do like what the pastor at my church says "If you are not blessed don't give." The trouble I have which such a statement as that is: It conveys the message that I will only give if I am blessed in return. It places a condition on our giving. And by using that logic an individaul could say: Lord, I am going to stop giving because I haven't personally noticed you giving me any blessings in return lately. Are you merely giving for what you can get? It's true that God doesn't need our money. The reason why God loves a cheerful giver, is because our giving is evidence of our recognition that all we have comes from God. He owns it all. 1 Chr. 29:12 Both riches and honour come of thee 1 Chr. 29:14 But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee Deut. 8:18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, Finally God desires that we give willingly, and cheerfully. The man who does this will as a result receive blessings. But the main motive of our giving should not be, to see what we can get back in return. I hope your not thinking that way. There are wrong motives that can be attached to giving In His service New Creature |

Amen Hank below is a comment I came across. I thought you might be interested in this. Specific Bible Knowledge Declining Ninety-two percent of Americans own a Bible. Two-thirds of Americans say that the Bible holds the answers to the basic questions of life. However, as pollster George Gallup points out, apparently "We revere the Bible, but we don't read it." That is, while general esteem of the Bible is high among Americans, knowledge of its basic content as well as the specific use of the Bible are on the decline: Less than half of Americans can name the first book of the Bible. Two-thirds do not know who delivered "The Sermon on the Mount." One-fourth do not know what event is celebrated on Easter. Twelve percent of Christians thought Noah's wife was Joan of Arc. Eighty percent wrongly thought that the phrase, "God helps those who help themselves" was found in the Bible. (It is actually from Benjamin Franklin's writings.) Over the past two decades, those who read the Bible, at least occasionally, has dropped from seventy-three percent to fifty-nine percent. Only fifteen percent of Americans participate in Bible studies. Two-thirds of Americans say that they are just plain "too busy" to read the Bible. This growing Biblical illiteracy causes pastors too much time explaining common Bible stories to parishioners rather than teaching what those stories mean for daily living. Pastor Andy Dzurovcik of Faith Lutheran Church in Clark, New Jersey, is on target when he declares, "The Bible is the bestselling, least read, and least understood book." “Mother, I found this old dusty thing high on the shelf.” “Why that’s a Bible, Tommy dear; Be careful that’s God’s book!” “God’s book!” the child exclaimed; “Then mother, before we lose it. We’d better give it back to God, for you know we never use it.” Blessings New Creature |
