Subject: Creation and Restoration of the Earth |
Bible Note: First the word Katabole means to lay down a foundation. Not a flood so I don't know why you keep calling the flood a Katabole. Now the foundation of the earth was apparently laid and the ground was drawn from the waters to form dry land. Why is that so mysterious? Not God didn't create vain place, he prepared a perfect world for us to dwell in and Genesis 1:1-7 gives an overview of the stages that occured to accomplish that. 2 Peter 3:4-7 (NKJV) 4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation." 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, 6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. Where is this talking of a two floods? It doesn't mention two floods yet you suggest that this passage simply ignores the Noah's Flood the one that destroyed all of mankind except Noah and his family and is talking of the Flood that is never mentioned anywhere else in scripture. God said we must have two or three witnesses for a verdict. Noah's flood and many times that number. Can you show me one other witness to this flood? As to name calling what name did I call you? I don't recall calling you any name and I reread my last post and I don't see any name calling. Please explain so I can correct myself if I did, it was never my intention to call anyone a name. If you are referring to my use of the term Strawman which I think you might be. I wasn't calling you that I was saying you were using strawman arguments which is commonly understood to mean your arguments are based on very weak implications being used to support ones position. |
