    Why Evolution is real science - let's settle this "debate"!

    Why is it denying scripture to see that God can make the earth and heavens or some part of it go back to its first condition. Just like He said would happen to man. Genesis 3:19 (KJV) In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou...

    South African medical community confused

    “Omicron” sounds like a super villain’s name. Like the one they skipped “Xi”.

    Why Evolution is real science - let's settle this "debate"!

    I gave you reason for why what you had provided doesn’t fit with the Bible, and you dismissed it with a wave of your all-knowing hand. Now you play the victim? Moses wrote the creation story in Gen 1. Moses wrote Ex 20:11. They are in agreement. If there was an additional catastrophe that...

    Why Evolution is real science - let's settle this "debate"!

    Au contraire. All you done is offered another viewpoint, but you haven’t shown why your viewpoint is correct. The more obvious is that it is talking about actual days, with an evening and a morning, since that’s what’s described in both the Exodus 20 passage (sabbath day) and the Gen 1 passage...

    Why Evolution is real science - let's settle this "debate"!

    My favorite is Exodus 20:11 (KJV) For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. If God made all in heaven in six days, then it wasn’t just the “land” He replenished...

    Why Evolution is real science - let's settle this "debate"!

    This is probably a waste of effort, but… So it’s ok for you to attack God’s competence, but not ok for me to attack yours? Then you shouldn’t think God is incompetent. Which is worse? You saying God is incompetent, or me saying you think God is incompetent? You shouldn’t wear your belt around...

    Why Evolution is real science - let's settle this "debate"!

    If “science” is “knowledge”, then by saying “the Bible is not a science book”, you are saying “the Bible is not a book of knowledge.” Full Definition of science—first definition: 1 : the state of knowing : knowledge as distinguished from ignorance or misunderstanding What you’ve described is...

    Why are Christians embracing Evolution?

    Man was created scientific “by nature”. But education has a downside, as illustrated by the tree of knowledge.

    Why are Christians embracing Evolution?

    Yes, I would agree. And some of those are confusing what some say about dinosaurs being fake as part of God’s word, because of false teachers.

    Why are Christians embracing Evolution?

    Christians regularly redefine “death” as “separation”, which effectively nullifies God’s warning about death for disobedience.

    Elect According to Foreknowledge

    I appreciate the clarification. And from your description, neither Israel nor the body of Christ is elected to salvation, but both are elect unto something, right? Israel, to be God’s ministers to the Gentiles, as you say. And the church? What are we elect for or to?

    Elect According to Foreknowledge

    Then you disagree with @JudgeRightly that we are not elect, at least in some way?

    Elect According to Foreknowledge

    Thanks for your rote response. But Paul, who you are saying was writing to the body of Christ, was calling the Colossians “elect”, while @JudgeRightly says “we are not elect”. Are you saying @JudgeRightly is not part of the body of Christ?

    Dinosaurs are fake and leads to atheism!

    So, I think the title of the thread gets it backwards. People who first believe that dinosaurs are fake, and make up their minds about it based on false premises and biblical eisegesis, will often become atheists because they feel like they are lied to by trusted "biblical" leaders, and they...

    Elect According to Foreknowledge

    Was Paul not writing to the body of Christ here: "[Col 3:12 KJV] Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering"? And was Peter not writing to those that didn't used to be a people? [1Pe 2:10 KJV] Which in time...
