Hello Jaiket You ask.."What do we know about God ?" Quite a lot, because God uses his inspired word in the scriptures and he allows us to see an appropriate substantial amout about his nature: He has a name, he makes himself seem personal to us so that we can relate to him. Isaiah 42:8 "I am...

Hi Juantoo3 Thankyou for the links regarding this subject. They are interesting articles. Unfortunately the link to the carbon dioxide one won't show. I couldn't help but notice in these articles the similarity of opioid effects from cereal products relating to a fairly common ailment. It...

The scriptural view and hence religious view of what faith is in the words of Paul. God inspired words ...... Translated from the Greek, the original syntax .... (Hebrews 11.1) "Is yet belief of being expected understanding of practices exposing not being looked." Garbled ? Sounds like Yoda...

Hello Bananabrain I watched the first episode and didn't bother to watch the second. He is known in the Creationists circles as a brilliant scientist, in the sense that he knows his stuff, but more dangerously so how to magically put his abiogenesis theories across as if they are fact. Gloss...

Hello 17th Angel Your quote: I have been studying the Bible with JW's for 4 - 5 months or so... I see them as my friends.... We get on well and I have recently been seeing alot of bad stories and publicity and rumours maybe.... If there are any JW's here could you clear up a few questions...

Hi e-man. To follow on from my previous post. Your quote: The book of Genesis has two different versions of creation, that make no sense, one says annimals were created first and the other says that they were created second? No, sorry, it doesn't, espescially if you look at the original...

Hi e-man Your quote: You say that that site "does not follow the story and order of the events" What bible do you read? I am useing KJV, The bible if read from the first page to the last page OUT OF ORDER in places thats one of the reasons no one can agree on any thing. A good example of this...

Hi Thomas Your quote: It would appear that Christ was aware of his mission from his childhood, in which case I would suggest he would resist any invitation of marriage as something that would detract him from his purpose. Very true. I think that the theme of the whole scriptures make it...

Hello Thomas Sorry for the late reply. You ask a good question. Your quote: If, as some suggest, the translation should read 'a God' and not simply 'God', is John then not preaching polytheism? No, not really, he is only recognising polytheism, because he would be recognising...

Hello Quahom1 Your quote: There is no belittling anyone about their choice of wording. There is only pointing out the fact that the use of a single word, or letter in the pharase or sentences can and does change the entire meaning of the phrase. My logic is sound, nor do I consider my...

Hello again InChristAlways Sorry for the late reply, but I can't get on here often. Your quote: Hi E99. Did you happen to notice that the word "brimstone" in revelation is also derived from theos as I never noticed that before untill I started looking up the different usages of "theos"...

Hello Qualohm I've shifted your thread regarding the transliteration of John 1:1 over to this discussion from the rapture one, as its obviously more appropriate here. I think that it is right to contest the common translations of John 1:1 that you have put up, as I believe that they do not give...

Hello InChristAlways Your quote: Contradictions can also come about by bad Translations and ones interpretations also, correct? Yes.... If the Greek and Hebrew language scholars have done their translating work correctly, there should be no argument as to the truth found in the bible...

Hello Tao Equus You've got a bee in your bonnet ! Your quote : Seems to me like you forever go back to fitting your argument against a backdrop of a perfectly dilute and diffuse pre-biotic soup. Has a coastal rockpool the same chemistry as a geo-thermal pool or a freshwater pond or the...

Bob: Flat earth....? A little off topic, but it did sprout up in this discussion as a side line to abiogenesis, creation and the biblical view of creation regarding a globular earth as opposed to a flat earth. Your quote: They depict the Earth as a flat circle, not as a sphere. My...

Bob.... Okay, I'm weeks behind on the debate ! Busy time of year. Your new link is interesting, more theories, reasonable ones that don't seem to bring in insurmountable improbabilities, but still with many problems regarding restrictions in chemical combining. The hydrothermal vent theories...

Hello bob.....I've been away, so a late reply. My quote: Your powers of observation are truly stunning!! Spot a mistake and attempt to belittle the one making it... Your quote: Well it's not like it's a small mistake. It is more like trying to discuss Christianity with someone who says...

Hi Bob... Your quote: You have an exaggerated notion of how much the microfossils tell us, or how much they could be plausibly expected to tell us. What we see are little bubbles, of various shapes and sizes. When, as is common in the later Archaeozoic, we see a rod-shape as well as a size...

Hi Mansio Your quote: If the name of God is such an important matter to you why do you give a wrong name to God ? It’s not the wrong name. It’s the proper anglicized transliteration of YHWH from the Germanic rendering of the name. The name of the true God as the tri-syllable Jehovah is...

Hi Tao Equus Just to interject an off subject point regarding the Isaiah scripture, circular or flat earth etc ! And you did say that you put this creation discussion up originally as a challenge to my creationist beliefs, assuming that I believed in a creation event from 6000 years ago. I...
