About 7500, actually, give or take 100 years. And the flood happened around 3290 BC, again, give or take 100 years.

Only if man was ONLY DUST. But since man is more than the dust of the ground, when the Bible talks about man returning to dust, it's only talking about the physical portion. Which means you're left with explaining what happens to the other parts of man, the soul, and the spirit. Man, when he...

The context explains what he's resting from, specifically. "And God ended His work which He had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done." The word "rest" here means to "cease from doing." Got literally stopped making things, because man was the finishing...

@DLH Regarding your post #202, Remove the "QUOTE" tags from anything that is not a quote of a post from TOL. Putting everything within QUOTE tags makes it impossible to respond to your post, as the site thinks that there's no text to quote.

In what way does disobedience to God fall in line with what I said, which was: "(and by [destroy], I mean that a man, by being destroyed, would cease to exist)"? More to the point, do you think that "being destroyed" (again, by "destroyed," I mean that they would cease to exist) would satisfy...

It doesn't.

No, it doesn't.

Just answer the question, Derf! If God created man in such a way that he would last forever, regardless of the status of his physical body, do you think that there would be anything that could destroy man? There's a reason I'm asking this question, Derf. There's an important point I'm trying...

"Death" isn't a form to take, Derf. You're avoiding the thrust of my question, which is about God's intent for man to last forever. Let me reword the question: If God created man in such a way that he would last forever, regardless of the status of his physical body, do you think that there...

This: Was in the RESPONSE to that answer. Thus it has not been answered yet.

Still waiting on an answer for this.

@Sherman might know. She does more of the technical stuff with the site, and if not her, then maybe @xfclown ?

It's not me saying it though. The Bible repeatedly tells men to humble themselves, and it says repeatedly that men humble themselves, and it's ALWAYS in response to something God has done. So Moses and Aaron came in to Pharaoh and said to him, “Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: ‘How long...

This is exactly what "firstborn of the dead" refers to. Colossians 1:17-18 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.

No, sorry, you don't have that right, no matter the circumstance. My health and wellbeing is none of your business. The only people who have access to that information are myself, my doctor, and those who I see fit to disclose it to. That doesn't include you.

Been rewatching that series recently. So good!

You're forgetting that the energy you're describing is already part of a much larger and more complex system than, as you put it, "The energy from the sun becomes more ordered but less powerful when it hits the earth. Some energy is stored and some is radiated back out."...

Saying it doesn't make it so, and it certainly does nothing to refute the argument that both I and Clete have presented that establishes logically that infallible foreknowledge necessitates no free will. Above, "T" is defined as "You answer the telephone tomorrow at 9 A.M." Or did you not...

Thank you for your entirely subjective opinion. I have far more faith in the human body being capable of handling a virus than you do, apparently, especially if I'm naturally immune to the virus. Here's what I abide by: My neighbor has the right to choose to be afraid. If he is afraid that...

Ok, troll.
