101 | what is Genesis 1 all about | Gen 1:1 | BradK | 220144 | ||
Hello Herb, Welcome to the Forum. Genesis 1 essentially details the account of creation... "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." (NASB) I hope this helps, BradK |

102 | can satan hear my prayers in my mind | Gen 1:1 | BradK | 223934 | ||
Hello Linda, There is nothing from scripture to indicate that Satan can read our minds- or by inference - hear our (silent) prayers! I hope this helps, BradK |

103 | When was the beginning? | Gen 1:1 | BradK | 224781 | ||
Hello Hoth, In answer to your question: Scripture doesn't say! As JFB notes, "In the beginning—a period of remote and unknown antiquity, hid in the depths of eternal ages; and so the phrase is used in Prov. 8:22, 23." I hope this helps, BradK |

104 | Luke 19 Story of ten servants! | Gen 1:1 | BradK | 227079 | ||
Hello pastorsd, Welcome to the Forum. You're asking a good question. The text in Luke 19:13 tells us, "And he called ten of his slaves, and gave them ten minas and said to them, 'Do business with this until I come back." Then, in verses 16, 18, and 20 were given the 3 accounts. Yet the parallel account in Matt. 25:14-15 says, "...called his servants and entrusted to them his property. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability." We're not given a specific number of servants. The inference here looks to be only three but maybe more. Scripture doesn't tell us or provide any other clues as to what happened to the other 7. So, my conclusion is that God, through the inspiration of Luke's account does not wish to relay any more details than the narrative contains. The point is not in the detail of "how many", but what each did with WHAT he was given! Luke 19:26 "I tell you that to everyone who has, more shall be given, but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away." I hope this helps, BradK |

106 | Man before the Bible. | Gen 1:1 | BradK | 234618 | ||
Hello Camus, Have you read Genesis 1? Perhaps you could be a little more specific in your question? Egyptian history cannot precede creation- Gen. 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth..." (NASB) Biblically, the early chapters of Genesis provide a narrative of God's creative work, and the fall of man. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

107 | what did God create on the first day | Gen 1:3 | BradK | 225305 | ||
Hello Dianne64, Your answer can be found in Gen. 1:3-5 Gen 1:3 Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light. Gen 1:4 God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. Gen 1:5 God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day. (NASB) I hope this helps, BradK |

108 | Can aliens be real? | Gen 1:6 | BradK | 227981 | ||
Hello soconfused... There is nothing within scripture that mentions aliens or other life forms. It is a topic beyond what is written, so to say anything else would be mere speculation. God created the universe. Gen 1:6 "Then God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." Gen 1:7 "God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were below the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so. Gen 1:8 "God called the expanse heaven. The Bible is not intended to be an exhaustive text about science (or creation), but it does provide the account of creation as written in Genesis 1. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

109 | DOES THE BIBLE TALK ABOUT DINOSAURS? | Gen 1:24 | BradK | 159152 | ||
Hi mrmethod, Some things are just not specifically mentioned in scripture. However, Genesis 1:24-25 reads: "Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and it was so. God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good." Job is the only biblical book to refer to what may have been dinosaurs (Hebrew “behemoth” and “Leviathan,” 40:15; 41:1). [Willmington's Bible handbook] I hope this helps, BradK |

111 | Humas most intelligent in the universe? | Gen 1:26 | BradK | 169262 | ||
Hi Paul, Though there is no direct scripture that states that humans are the most intelligent creatures, you can probably find the implication in Gen. 1:26-28. As an aside, everything in nature obeys God- except man! I hope this helps, BradK |

112 | Genesis 1-27 | Gen 1:27 | BradK | 141340 | ||
Hi Robina, Welcome to the Forum. Allow me to attempt an answer for you. First of all, I think you're referring to John 4:24 where Jesus says, "God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." Note that Jesus says 'God is Spirit', not "a" spirit! Second, Genesis 1:27 simply says "God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them." The Creation account in Gen. 2:7 tells us that "Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being." It says nothing about us being "first created as a spirit then He formed our bodies out of the ground..." You have to be careful in reading scripture to not "read into it" something that's not there. This is where I would say you are incorrect- in that sense:-) My questions to you would be: 1. What makes you believe that we were first created as a spirit? 2. What is the Biblical basis of your understanding in reading Genesis? (What does the scripture say?) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

114 | was there a nation of Adam an nation Eve | Gen 2:1 | BradK | 81698 | ||
Dear ydeedah, There is no mention in Scripture of anything having to do with "a nation" of Adam or Eve. There are references to "a land of Havilah" (vs 11), "land of Cush" (vs 13), and "Assyria" (vs 14). If you haven't, you may want to read through Genesis 2 and 3 where we have the Edenic Covenant (2:15-17) and then the Adamic covenant (3:14-21). Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |

115 | creation | Gen 2:2 | BradK | 220726 | ||
Hello jacobp, Gen. 2:2 reads, "By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done." (NASB) I believe scripture to be quite literal in It's account of creation being 7 days. "The word "day" may refer to a prolonged period when used without any qualifying words. But when qualified with a numerical, it is defined and limited by it to a day of 24 hours. In 1:5 it is further limited here by it;s boundaries "evening and morning" as well as by the 7th day." [The Companion Bible] "Theistic evolution" is not taught nor supported by scripture. I hope this helps, BradK |

116 | Interpretation | Gen 2:2 | BradK | 220935 | ||
Hello Rick, I don't believe Keliy was throwing the bible out- quite the opposite! The Word of God clearly states in 2 Pet 1:20, "But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation," (NASB) You state, "I believe we are all to interpret the Word of God, but it will be up to God Alone to judge our interpretations and our lives lived based on those interpretations." Where exactly in scripture do we find this teaching? It appears that you're offering a defense of subjective interpretation? Scripture is not open to any and every whim. The Historic Christian Faith supports no such notion! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

117 | Remember... | Gen 2:2 | BradK | 220966 | ||
Hello Rick, As my 9th-Grade teacher was fond of saying, "tell me something I don't already know". You're appearing to be one to quote things out of context and are simply side-stepping the issue by failing to give adequate scriptural support to any of your "views" Possibly you have not read nor are familiar with About Forum and Terms of Use. Please take the time to do so if you haven't. It will be of benefit to all of us. Our gracious host, the Lockman Foundation in their doctrinal statement holds: We believe that the entire Bible is the inspired and inerrant word of God; the only infallible rule of faith and practice. In About Postings: Postings must be Biblically based and not opposing the Bible's sole authority (sola Scriptura), Christianity, or the deity of Jesus Christ. Whenever possible, postings should include supporting Bible references. Rick you're welcome to your views, beliefs, etc. However, when they fall outside Orthodoxy or show ignorance of the appropriate protocol here on the SBF, it leads to uneccessary strife!

119 | free interpretation | Gen 2:2 | BradK | 220970 | ||
Hello Rick, Might I then ask: did you understand all that you read and are you in agreement with the Terms of Use and About Forum?

This post is not submitted as an effort to foster divisiveness, ill-will, dissension or other disruptions to this forum. 4. I have carefully proofread my post and believe it represents my best efforts. If I'm understanding you correctly, your understanding of "free interpretation" is at odds with the Lockmans' TOU and About Postings!

120 | Do you believe in being chosen? | Gen 2:9 | BradK | 126036 | ||
Bruce7, It might help if you could qualify your question with a reference as to what exactly your looking for:-) It's a bit open-ended. I would have to believe in being chosen as scripture tells me I am. Particularly Col. 3:12: "So, as those who have been chosen of God..." 2nd Thessalonians tells us that "...we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation..." Obviously there are numerous other references such as 1 Tim. 5:21, 2 Tim. 2:10, Tit. 1:1 and 1 Pet. 2:9, etc. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
