Hahn , thank you for this response . I expected a possible intellectual discussion to sprout from that and not someone looking for names of evolutionists to feed on grin

I believe man has a purpose of creation until that purpose is achieved Christ will tarry . So if its God's will for man to continue his existence for the next 1000 yrs , then yes man will .

Everything will fall into place to perpetuate his existence

i. Some computer scientists believe AI can obliterate the human race , then the creation of conscious robots may not be achieved
ii. Some scientists claim climatic change will have adverse effects on humanity , that will be dealt with
iii . Chances of asteroids hitting the earth will be reduced to nothing etc

Ok. No problem

KingEbukasBlog:

His ideas of the events in the bible being allegorical are not totally out of line . He presented them smartly but I'll surely find away to catch him off guard . I hope sukkot knows more questions are coming . I really want to more of his knowledge smiley
But ifeness is just looking for where to cling on . He refused to be a viodict and had to believe in aliens . He makes up his own stories and regurgitates fantasies and fiction from Hollywood movies

But you suppose understand wetin I mean na wink

in regards to those beholden to the scientific rationalism. Do they have explanation of the first cause? If NO , then am sorry to say this, scholar8200 was right.
And if they claim there might be no first cause needed then watch these men attribute the fact of the Creator being Un-created and from everlasting to everlasting, to their intellectual inventions (extrapolations, assumptions, estimations and ideas with much leeway to adjust it for crying out loud!). Indeed the whole reeks more, not of natural inquisitiveness, but a conceited drive egged on by rebellion!

Lol.
It all depends on how you choose to learn about the universe and existential issues.

If you have a million bits of scattered phenomena in the observable universe, you can do one of two things.

You can begin to observe, study, analyze and assemble the pieces one by one, over time, or, you can just tell yourself that it's a Toothfairy, no questions asked, none required, case closed.

This is the difference between you and I.

You reject facts and scientific ideas for magic, and then you have the effrontery to scoff at those that prefer the tedious process of observation, experimentation and analysis.

2 cor. 4; 18.
while we look not at things which are seen but at things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal and the things which are not seen are eternal.

There re two types of people, those who believe in God and those who don't believe.

Its is pointless arguing with an atheists

Are Christ's apostles symbolic or real . If they are symbolic , what are the individual representations of

a. Peter - His rock
b. Judas - The one who betrayed him
c. John - The Beloved , and whom the revelations of the events of the last days
i John's revelations were allegorical . Can an allegory be embedded in another allegory?
ii . John pleaded for Christ's return

Revelation 22:20

20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

... doesn't this expose the fact Christ's been born on earth isn't allegorical ?

We can kick off with the above .

well christ being born on earth is not allegorical. however there are many christs and not just one and all those people you mentioned are the different attributes of the different christs. john the revelator was a christ ( which christ means anointed ), paul was a christ, and judas represents the followers of christ who abandoned the ways of the truth and sold out to the ways of the world. for evidence that there are many christs >>>>

i corinthians 15 vs 23 Christ the firstfruits; <<< CHRIST THE FIRSTFRUITS ? FIRSTFRUITS. MANY OF THEM. PLURAL NOT SINGULAR

it is simply allegorically expressing how yisrael will lose their control of the world and will be overtaken by several empires starting from the babylonian and ending with the roman and the doctrines of these empires will flood the world hence THE FLOOD while yisrael will have the word of God sealed in them hence hiding in the ark, the ark being the word of God that is sealed in them while floating in this barrage of doctrines from all the nations ruling the world. thats the story in a nutshell

So can you explain this verse :

2 Peter 3:5-7

5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.

6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:

Well first of all, not everything in the bible is what it seems. certain words mean something to me and you but to the bible they mean something else which is why the bible has to be deciphered precept upon precept. lets take the word water for example ? to you it means liquid water. but here is what the bible ( keep in mind the bible was compiled 500 years ago so its in old english and old english words today are not what they meant back then ), so here is what bible means by water when we go precept for precept

revelation 17 vs 15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the wh-ore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

SO THATS WHAT WATER MEANS. IT CAN BE PEOPLES, MULTITUTUDES, NATIONS OR TONGUES AKA DOCTRINES. SO BACK TO INTERPRETING YOUR VERSE

it says that those in rulership now ( the gentile nations as at that point in time ) and the sealed elect members of israel and the non-sealed members of israel were all created together in ancient times ( thus emphasizing reincarnation of souls ). however rulership of israel was perished by the barrage of heathen doctrines when the heathens took over the world but this heathen rulership will be perished by fire on those who refused to tow the path of God. so fire means tribulation. so there will be heavy tribulation when the end of the age comes, and the tribulation will be on those who refused to seek the path of truth and this tribulation will bring about the end of an era and the start of a new era.

you can call it whatever you want but in order to get the wisdom that is hidden within, there are certain protocols that have to be followed. if you dont follow the protocols you are wasting your time. all the wisdom knowledge and understanding in the book is hidden and locked. you have to unlock it by following the protocols wink wink cheesy

Not necessarily due to evolution, but Adaptation. i.e Tanning.

But you left out the part where humans reengineer their bodies and cheat death. due to the intervention of artificial intelligence. tsk tsk. too much cherry picking.
