Which is why it's important to know what the Bible ACTUALLY says, rather than going off of what we think it says. What "tree with the poisonous fruit"? Surely you don't mean the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? If so, do you mean "poisonous" literally or figuratively? If the latter...

Keep reading. Jesus is giving context for what He is about to say: Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.” And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and...

Correct.

I don't particularly disagree with anything here... Satan being cast from heaven is a description of the events in Genesis 3. He is currently roaming the earth. He will eventually be banished to the pit for 1000 years in the end times. It's literally as simple as that. https://kgov.com/three

No. Satan was in the garden, which WAS heaven, where God dwelt, a paradise, the mountain of God. The Garden of Eden was only one place on earth. Yes, the earth was a paradise, but Eden was a special place on earth on a mountain, the one where God lived. He was kicked out of heaven, out of the...

Correct. Correct. A more rational explanation cannot be found. AMEN!

This describes the events of Genesis 3. These are prophecies that pertain ONLY to Israel, as a warning to them in their rebellion against God. The simple answer is no. There's no logical pathway from the former to the latter, simply because they are completely unrelated events.

Moving this to its own thread... More responses to come after this post. Idolater, there is so much wrong with your post it's hard to even know where to begin. I'm not sure where you got your version of Biblical events from, but it clearly wasn't the Bible, and reads more like a fantasy novel...

Most of it is, making it hard to read. Homepage > Theology Online Welcome Center > Newbie Central

Democracy is bad for a nation. Just look at what happened to Korah and his posse... Any form of government that includes man is weakened simply due to man being part of it. Thus, the goal should not be, "What is the perfect form of government?" but instead, "What is the form of government...

The only correct use!

Good point. Allow me to rephrase. God cut off unbelieving Israel, and started adding people to the Body of Christ, which had been a mystery...

Yes, it does (cf. Acts 2:1-4). The problem is that it also supported my view, or at least, didn't contradict my position. Peter was given the authority to do so by Jesus Himself. Special pleading. Keep reading. As RD pointed out, and as Scripture states quite clearly, yes, he is. "He...

Appeal to tradition is a logical fallacy. Don't base your beliefs on logical fallacies. As stated above, in this case, it's not an appeal to authority, it's an appeal to tradition. Appeal to authority is "X is an authority, X said P, therefore P must be correct." Appeal to tradition is "P...

Because that's what this site is for. And you've been repeatedly answered that we believe the Bible. Why do we need to believe a creed or statement of faith? The tenets of our theology are contained within the Bible. If you have a problem with that, then maybe the issue doesn't lie with...

Uh.... Hmmm. You're delusional. @Idolater "Scripture" for the Apostles WAS LITERALLY what we now today call the "OLD TESTAMENT." The entire thread is still there for everyone to read, you numbskull.
