Nolan, your answer is a very reasonable, well thought out one. The following is in no way intended as a criticism of you or your writing. . . . My problem is with all the endless debate over this verse, a verse that doesn't have a thing in the world to do with the doctrine of Christ, Salvation or anything else that has any impact on our daily lives. Under questions on Gen 6:4, I counted 29 postings since Feb. 27, 2001. . . . I point this out only as an example of the many questions that have been debated to death on this Forum. People at the Forum have a real knack for asking questions for which no clear verse of Scripture exists to provide an answer. That may be kicks for some, but how are we edified, how are we benefited, by all this idle coffee shop chatter? . . . Surely we can find questions that do have a Biblical answer. Does EVERY question have to be highly controversial and speculative in nature? It would be nice for a change if we at the Forum would address questions that do have an answer. Questions that do not divide people. . . . I'm not totally against controversial topics, but do we have to major on them? Is that the main reason this Forum exists -- to argue, insinuate, insult, and criticize one another? (Again, Nolan, none of this is directed at you personally or at the reply you gave re the question on Gen 6:4.) |

JVH, I agree. There is such a thing as sawing sawdust or beating a dead horse. Many of the questions and likewise the responses have been good and solid and instructive and spiritually uplifting. But a fair number have not. Some have been way out there. I even wonder sometimes how we've escaped the "Who made God?" question. Questions should be of the type that can be properly answered in light of Scripture and answers should always be founded on Scripture. This forum should encourage and enhance Bible study, not drown in the murky waters of bias, bickering, and wild conjecture. --Hank | ||||||

Hey there JVH and Hank. I had sound reasoning for Genesis 6:4 and I was not trying to be divisive or turn people away. This is the first time that I actually addressed the question of Genesis 6:4, and if either of you find fault with me then we can handle this outside the forum. However, I agree with writing divisive posts. This is something that should not be done! I pray that everything that we do, even what we write may help to draw people to Christ, not to turn people away. To show you that I am not trying to 'beat a dead horse', I will not respond to this question again. However, I would rather get some feedback on my question/note (even though I now cannot reply to it in the forum) than be made an 'example of' something. | ||||||
