Alfa Seltzer:

I didn't interprete. the book is very clear on creation.

obadiah777: bible does not say anything of this nature. i suggest you read it carefully. can you quote the verse in the bible that backs your post

texanomaly:
First of all, how long is a day to someone who thinks in terms of eternity? Have you considered that?

obadiah777: from your interpretation it took 6 days to make the earth ? lol bible does not mention anything about the world being created. the world could be millions of years old for all i know

Alfa Seltzer:

A day on earth is 24 hours to anybody.

noblefada:
Let me ask you a question, Adam 930 years, when did it start counting?

Alfa Seltzer:

I don't know. Its the holy book of god that said it. If you doubt the book, say so.

Anyway, no matter when it started counting, the verse made it clear that "in all together", he was 930. So start from anywhere you want, he died at 930. Except you are calling the most holy word of god crap. Are you?

joe4christ:

Bros, biblical scholars are of the opinion that from the period of creation in Genesis to this present day, the earth is just about 6000+ old, maybe you should do some research yourself by making maximum use of your google.
Thanks anyways!

noblefada:
Good, its started counting after the fall, when man disobeyed, and Adam was already adult n married to eve. So when u want start making ur calculation take that into consideration.
Let me help u a bit, man was initially created to live forever. So how old do u think the earth is

JMAN05:

what biblical prove does this bible scholars have? the bible didnt tell us how long it took God to create the earth?

Alfa Seltzer:

Let me highlight it for you because you may have blinded yourself to it.

Genesis 5:5

5 [size=15pt]Altogether,[/size] Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.

It means, in all in all. count from wherever, adam was 930 years old when he died. period.

macof: Man was never suppose to live forever. our home is heaven. our llives are just borrowed

noblefada:
No God created man to live for ever Gen 2:16-17 NET 16 Then the LORD God commanded the man, “You may freely eat fruit from every tree of the orchard, 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will surely die.” man would have lived forever if he didn't disobey the above instruction

1st. Where does the bible say that god created man to live forever?
So saying that if you eat this , you will die is the same as saying if dont eat this you will live forever?

2nd. In Genesis 2:22 " 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 forever".

So here we see that God is afraid that Adam may attempt to eat the tree of life and live forever, something he and his fellow elohim never intended for Adam.

Anyone with common sense to should already know that no biological entity, infact, nothing lives forever. The dynamism of the universe requires that things start from simple to complex, and then break down to simple again.

How you not heard of the carbon cycle?

If your god created man to live forever, how would the earth's resources and ecosystem have coped? There is only a finite number of humans that can occupy a finite earth.

When will you graduate from junior sunday school?

texanomaly:
Hmmm...I've never thought of that. How long were they in the garden before Eve partook of the forbidden fruit?
Interesting.

noblefada:
No! the reason for the word Altogether was because is lifetime was split when it was being narrated, how long he lived b4 giving birth to Serth, how he lived afterwards and then the total.

noblefada:
Actually the mystery of that part of genesis is very interesting and the explanation is right there in the bible! that's why I just laughed when atheists, that know next to nothing about the bible come here n start bragging, I know straight away its due to ignorance.
Let me give u another clue, first I said man was created to live forever right? what if I now tell u that Adam & Eve actually the live so millions of years b4 the fall? (remember the clue is in the bible)

Alfa Seltzer:

Exactly!

Alfa Seltzer:

I had to laugh at this. Really.

macof: So if man lost immortality cus of eating dat fruit, how can u explain other animals case of death

macof: So if man lost immortality cus of eating dat fruit, how can u explain other animals case of death

macof: Christians free urselves from mental slavery and stupidity

noblefada:
Actually not only animals but the whole earth! Man was giving dominion over all the earth and its inhabitants Gen 1:26- 30, pls go back and read the charge God gave to Noah after he came out of the ark. So man's disobedience did not only bring corruption n death to him alone but to everything he had authority over. In fact the earth is gradually dying.

plaetton: This might be of some value in this discussion.
