Hi everyone. I'm a new member and I don't know if this is the right place to post about this. I've just started reading the Bible and finished Genesis and Exodus. I'm reading it in Spanish, so sorry if places, concepts or names are translated wrong to English.

1) The Babel Tower: in...
Its been a little while since we re-visited the low hanging fruits of genesis, so at the request of @setarcos I intitiated this thread.
So what are your doubts about Genesis?
Personally mine would be the amount of non-scientific information in it. They would include but not be limited to the...
Genesis 1:28-30
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29 And God said, Behold, I have...
In Genesis 2:16-17 it is written:
16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
If we look at...
This is continuation of our study; a deeper look into the events of the Garden of Eden.
in Genesis 3, it is written:
And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live...
It is written in Genesis 2:
21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22 And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 And Adam said...
Quite often I see the things in the Hebrew Bible presented as 100% literal word for word accounts of events that actually happened / existed
~ The Garden of Eden and the serpent
~ The flood and the ark
~ The firmament
etc
Now, I personally believe the Bible is " God's word "...
John opens up with: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
I don't quite understand this. Clearly the author of the book is trying to parallel this with the opening of Genesis "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." However, Genesis...
I believe that the Bible does not contradict itself, and when we read that light was created before the sun, then the only logical explanation is that sunlight is not daylight.
this is the best video about the global flood of noah's time i have seen.
this documentary is well produced and pleasant to watch and describes conclusively how the geomorphology of the earth was shaped by the rising and receding genesis flood waters 4400 yrs ago.
Please move this question to the place of greatest interest in these forums.
What is the official doctrine of the pentacostal church regarding the foundations of the world? a church member has been preaching both the bible and the theory of evolution. But I'm not asking you what you think, but...
Hello my friends,
You may have seen me haunting these hallowed electronic hallways, to bend the ear of anyone who will listen saying "pssssssst..... have you heard about the real gematria?" :)
Well, in-between hanging out here I managed to write a book, and next week I'm launching The Genesis...
if you could only name one biblical verse, what is the most important one for you and why?
Mine is
Genesis 9:6 Whoever sheds the blood of man through man shall his blood be shed, for in the image of God He made man..
Why? because this verse, as spoken by God, makes it clear that all human sin...
So my question is: why does "God" refer to himself in plural? (Let us create...)
I did some research, and the Trinity isn't even mentioned in the Bible (at least not as "Trinity", there are hints of it). Why would a "God" that claims to be only God refer to what looks like others like him (as...
Gen 2:7-8 And Jehovah God forms the man—dust from the ground, and breaths into his nostrils breath of life, and the man becometh a living creature. 8And Jehovah God plants a garden in Eden, at the east, and He sets there the man whom He hath formed;
So, in Gen 2:7 it says man became… So what...
Lets say the Exodus didn't happen, or Genesis is entirely made up. Not a single instance in these books happened. Do we toss out the whole thing? can there still be spiritual truth in a book full of myths?
Or maybe say it turns out the Jesus of the bible never existed, is there still worth in...
The laws of physics tell us: Matter cannot be created (nor can it create itself).
Question: Has anyone ever seen something come from nothing? If you have, your eyes are lying to you.
Question: Do you believe something can come from nothing? If you do, you are lying to yourself.
