You are very correct. If everyone thought the same way this thread would be 1 post long. Thank you for taking time to read and post. Like you, I still like to see the other ideas out there.

Take care!

This my be out of place but who is to say all the other religions "bibles" are wrong. Don't they also tell a story of creation? So its basically pull the books of the shelf and believe what u want. I think i'll shop in the non-fiction section myself.

I'm a firm believer that you generally believe what the people believe in the region of the world you are born in. I guess I'm the exception to the rule though.

Im still waiting for the holes.


Having trouble finding them?
How do you know that I won't believe you. You said, ask me questions so I did. The answer does not surprise me.

You are drawing conclusions on material you have not researched. You state half truths and draw your conclusions and wait for answers in which you will not believe anyway.

God vs. Science

Most anti-God scientist are bible illiterates. Nobody has proven the bible wrong yet. If there was something wrong dont you think somebody would have found that "hole" by now?

I rest my case

God bless.
The 6 to 900 year thing is a real stretch for any imagination. Ok there was 8 of them still don't make it morally right

Britt, Were you truly saved according to the Bible?
Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Joh 3:4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Joh 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

I understand that you have changed your veiws. The thing is if you were honest in your acceptance of Christ at that time you are still written in the Lambs book of life.
Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one.

If you were sincere. Then you are going to Heaven no matter what you think or say. I know your location says your on your way to Hell. You won't be giving them a lift. But they will be wondering why you aren't driving.

Believe me I am not judging anyone. That is up to God. I just believe that the Bible is 100% correct.

Just so every knows this. I don't think that I am better then anyone else here. The only good in me is Christ.

See what I mean. Draw your own conclusions

Jesus Christ - still intimidating after 2000 years.

I LOVE IT!!!

Yeah.... I find it hard to believe Jesus as intimidating. Probably the most compassionate person that has ever lived.

KBennet, you asked about Noah and the Ark. How could 1 guy fit all the animals into a small ark.

Well, a couple things. 1) He did not NEED adults. In fact, baby animals eat less, go less, sleep more, and they would have a more productive life. 2) He did not NEED every little variation of animals. He would need a canine and from 2 canines, we get all these dogs, wolves and coyotes.

For those who believe evolution is true, how did water come about? It is needed but yet nobody has explained how it came about.

You know... I'm glad that you asked that because I have thought about this many times in the past. I was always told (even to this day by my mom) that once saved always saved. Now if you want me to be completely honest with you... I really don't know the answer to that question. When I was ten I most definitely believed in God, Jesus, that he died on the cross for our sins, that Shadrack, Meshack, and Abendigo survived in a roaring furnace, that David beat Goliath with a smooth stone, that the walls of Jericho came down, and that Eve was created from the rib of Adam. Pretty much everything in the bible I believed. I can still, to this day, recite all of the books of the bible (a shock to all my friends or anyone that knows me). I remember talking to the preacher and, at the time accepting Christ. Now don’t put too much stock in this because a few years earlier I believed in Santa and the Easter bunny. Now my question is this… Was I old enough to actually be accepted? If you want me to be honest, I don’t really feel like I reached an age of reason until I was around age 14. So here is the real question: I did honestly believe when I was 10. I started questioning everything when I was around 14. And today I don’t really believe at all. So what is your opinion? My personal opinion, if I am to be honest, is that I wasn't old enough to be saved. What do you think?

Judging by your previous post here, I don’t think there is any question as to your true intentions. All of your post have been balanced with your beliefs and seemingly a desire to learn about others.

Thank you.

Water came when 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atoms combined to create a water molecule.

Now you lost me. You may have made perfect sense to yourself but what does Jesus have to do with Noah's little family love?

I have a simple question for you and since it has been debated on here a bit so far can you tell us how old you think (know) the earth is?

Not intimidating to me. Just to the non-believer.
