    Jesus is not God

    So who is it about? You don’t really think Jesus would be the cause of mischief in the world do you? Or could it be that he knew those who would be his followers would suffer from people who would be their enemy? The sword would come from people who hated his followers. Jesus prophesied that...

    Article, “Internal Proofs of Bible Authenticity”

    I could show you all kinds of related Scriptures, and reason on them with you, but would it affect you? Why would Jehovah put man on the Earth, if His purpose was ultimately for humans to live in Heaven? He’s already got the angels there….why put us here first? Is God going to straighten /...

    Do you realize, by saying the Edenic account is myth, then there’s really no reason for Jesus to die? It has no value, if his sacrifice wasn’t “redemptive”, ie., had nothing to redeem.

    What would have been the outcome, if Adam hadn’t eaten the fruit, ie., disobeyed the command not to eat from that tree? (And yes, as I showed you a few months back, it was a command — see below.) He would never have died! You can’t see that? I never said immortal, and neither does the text...

    Jesus is not God

    Does it really depend “upon who says it”, or is it if they agree with you, ie., if their pov is similar to yours? I think that’s the choice that @YoursTrue was meaning. (YoursTrue, if I misunderstood you, please correct me.) Sometimes, even the most well- reasoned arguments won’t make any...

    For us, no threat. It might even be good! But for Adam, he was created perfect… iow, he would never have died! Have you never thought why does the Bible, in recounting the generations immediately proceeding Adam — up to several generations, in fact — reveal his descendants as having such long...

    Hey back atcha. Hope you and yours are well too. Not sure. I think the year they used back then was lunar- based. About 360 days, if i remember correctly. And adding an intercalary month every so often. If the Hebrew year could reference an indeterminate time period, that would present a...

    Not when they were slaves! Lol. Then, you say, “The Hebrews…. owned slaves.” Not while they themselves were slaves!! That was the context under discussion. Prove it. Show the references. Lol. No I haven’t. Supposition is what you have. Facts…

    Yom doesn’t mean 1,000 yrs. But one of it’s definitions can mean an indeterminate period of time; and this is what the text reveals.

    Luke 3:38… “son of Eʹnosh, son of Seth, son of Adam, son of God.” And by extension, us…. Malachi 2:10 Good night

    But it was true! In fact, since Adam died at 930 yrs. of age, this is more proof that “Yom” (day) in this text did not mean a literal 24 hrs.

    Re: death entering the world… There had always been death prior to A&E, for billions of years. The deaths of organisms, enrich the soil, helping to make it productive. Didn’t you ever wonder, why God didn’t explain death to Adam? (Probably not, because you’ve never looked at the text...

    I’ve gone over this with you before to some degree, haven’t I? What do you think the Israelite sacrifices were all about? The building of (first) the Sanctuary tent, and (later) the Temple? Grief! That formed the basis of the entire Israelite society! And further, we have Daniel’s statements...

    Did you know that your response, “Every culture developed a particular style of pottery, and at the time all cultures bought, sold and owned slaves including the Hebrews”….. …is completely out of context?!! It seems you are the clueless one, lol.

    Article, “Internal Proofs of Bible Authenticity”

    Really? Now these people, according to the Bible, had been slaves! They hadn’t had the freedom to develop a ‘particular style of pottery.’ Measuring is best. But inductive reasoning isn’t based on measuring; it’s based on guessing / philosophy, and that can be misleading.

    Are you familiar with the Biblical record? Have you read the pertinent accounts? Heres one: Deuteronomy 8:10-12 Some changes, though, were quite evident. Regarding Jericho, I posted the information already…archaeologist Titus Kennedy… Everything from the pattern of how the walls collapsed...

    Hey Blü2, how’s it going? I have time constraints (due to other responsibilities), so right now, I can only address these: I say there was. Otherwise, Jesus’ sacrifice of a (perfect) life for a (perfect) life - the Mosaic Law’s standard for justice - has no value or meaning if Adam didn’t...
