41 | Commentator? | Is 14:16 | Stultis the Fool | 126953 | ||
When you say "commentator," how do you mean? Does our friend BarbaraC102 not fulfill the role of a "commentator" of the opinion this verse is speaking of Satan? | ||||||
42 | Thoughts? | OT general | Stultis the Fool | 126943 | ||
Does this definition consider forces that act against the earth allowing for orbital decay? Certainly the Earth's orbit does experience decay. Aditionally, some years ought, by biblical event, to be longer than others. Consider the events in 2 Kings 20:8 through 20:11, and also the events of Joshua 10:12 and 10:13. Thoughts? |

45 | This post is restricted. What gives? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126805 | ||
I understand what you say, however, I must give do credit to the creator where all life is concerned. I am familiar with what the scriptures say regarding creation, be fruitful, etc., but I wish to steal none of the glory from the Creator. Soloman believed we were all created by God [Ecclesiastes 3:20, 12:7], and as such I see no reason to apply semantics here. I am certain that all ment are created by the Lord, just as I am sure they are given their spirit from Him. I see this post is restricted. What gives? |

46 | Unreasonable? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126771 | ||
I am not. I am stating that the Author of Hebrews uses the creation account as allegory, and his allegory contradicts a literal 7-day 24hour creation. Read it for yourself. Hebrews 3:5 through 4:11. If the Author of Hebrews feels at liberty to allegorize the creation, is it unreasonable for us to ponder such things? | ||||||
47 | Can I help you? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126766 | ||
Jesus chose appropriately, and Grace was not yet with us when he did so. I agree that man is condemned by the Law because of sin, but free will plays the most important role. If you cannot recognize temptations role in sin, I pity you. We will not be tempted with more than we can bear. We have every capacity to choose between right and wrong. The Law of moses was created to identify sin, that we should not sin. God gives us all we need (right down to salvation and grace), to avoid sin and defy the flesh by walking in the spirit. I am sorry you feel you are constrained by more than you can bear. Can I help you in any way? | ||||||
48 | What then do we need to sin? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126708 | ||
You say I understand what "sin nature" is, and you agree that it gives Christ the capacity to sin, but you argue it is unnecesary to have a "sin nature" in order to sin. So, what then do we need to sin? | ||||||
49 | 7 twenty-four hour periods? | Gen 1:5 | Stultis the Fool | 126705 | ||
Yes or no, was the "world" created in seven twenty-four hour days, according to the description in Genesis chapter 1? |
||||||
50 | Allegory? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126703 | ||
Yes, we will enter into "rest," as described by the author, but we will not enter "Today." Therefore, we must be "dilligent" to enter that rest [Hebrews 4:11]. This rest here refers to the Sabath Day, as spoken of in verses 9 and 10. At any rate, the use of the word "day" in Genesis is metaphoric, especially coupled with the concepts of "morning" and "evening." Additionaly, the author of Hebrew's tells us God completed his works from the "foundation of the world" [Hebrews 4:3], and we know the foundation of the world was created first of all things, along with the heavens. [Genesis 1:1] The passage explains that the world was "formless and void," thus the "foundation" upon which all else was built. Therefore, if all was finished from the "foundation" of the world, how is it that 6 more days of creation remain, unless there is allegory? We are all in agreement that God the Almighty can create the world in seven days, even 24 hour periods as defined in the modern sense. Is it also unreasonable to believe that all could be completed from the first day, in an instant, and the summation of his work bloomed over the next five days, in due course with his desire for creation? |

51 | How do you explain? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126699 | ||
How then do you explain Paul's description of "Sabaths" or "Holy Days" in Colosians 2:16 and 17 when compared to the Author of Hebrews explanation of the creation of man and God's rest found in Hebrew's 3:5 through 4:11. Here (Hebrews) the author thoroughly explains that "God's rest", or the 7th day of creation, is something we strive to enter, and while it is "Today", which, by intent, we can surmise must refer to the 6th day, we should strive to enter "God's rest." Either the author is allegorizing the 7 days of creation, or else he is displaying quite literally that the 6th and 7th days of creation were no more 24 hour periods than the first 4 days. In either case, something is debunked here: 24 hour creaction period following day four OR allegory not being present in the creation. Again, I find Paul's refference to "shadows" lends great credance to this concept. |

52 | Allegorical? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126690 | ||
So, use of the word "day" is simply an allegorical measure for the simplicity of our understanding, yes? This should be especially true considering the words you quote were written by Peter 1500 years later than those written by Moses in Genesis. | ||||||
53 | 7 days? | Bible general Archive 2 | Stultis the Fool | 126677 | ||
Was the "world" created in seven twenty-four hour days, as described in Genesis chapter 1? | ||||||
54 | Do people disbelieve? | John 17:22 | Stultis the Fool | 126664 | ||
I am not entirely understanding the dilemma... God is Jesus. Do people on this forum disbelieve this thing? | ||||||

Well done? | ||||||
56 | I need some help. | 1 Cor 6:16 | Stultis the Fool | 126622 | ||
I am thoroughly confused. I would like to know what others understand the meaning of Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 6:16 to be. To avoid any problems, I will not reply to any posts to this thread; I just wish to gain some definative understanding of this scripture. Please, I would just like to hear as many opinions regarding what this scripture means. | ||||||

58 | Definitions, please? | Matt 18:6 | Stultis the Fool | 126592 | ||
Can you define "Darwinian materialism" please (site some sources, please)? Also, can you please explain what Paul means in his statements regarding sex with a harlot in 1 Corinthians 6:15 and 16? | ||||||
59 | Is my assessment of them wrong? | Matt 18:6 | Stultis the Fool | 126468 | ||
I am amazed at the lack of concern dedicated to this topic. If Theo-minor is wrong, why is he not being refuted with sound, contrary scripture? I am asking, are Pauls words in 1 Corinthians 6:16 incorrect? Is my assessment of them wrong? Silencing this topic will not help those who are incorrect reach any amount of understanding, nor does it address the issue in question. |
||||||
60 | Am I wrong? | Matt 18:6 | Stultis the Fool | 126463 | ||
Hank... Interesting methodology. Is this how everyone who is presumed wrong is taught the truth? I am re-posting a reply I made to another part of this thread, and adding a couple questions: "I would like to add that my posts to this subject do NOT advocate the taking of the union of marriage lightly... On the other hand, I certainly imply that we do not take seriously enough the act of intercourse. Here it is dismissed as sin quite casually, but I believe the scriptures show that the implications of the act are much more far-reaching then some would like to admit." I assume you can refute what is being posted here with some form of specific scripture. Am I wrong? |
