GOOD AND EVIL EXIST IN GOD. THAT'S WHY HE'S THE SUPREME SPIRIT.

imagrg:
God created man and gave him an option: Either to do good or embrace evil and die spiritually.

Good and evil are man's intent that is a consequence of the free-will man is subject to.

To do good is to adhere to the Supreme Will of God. To do evil therefore is a deviation from God's Will and plan for man.

It is man's inclination to evil while appears more alluring that destroys man and subjects him to eternal damnation.

You mention them if you know!
Some of the names of Allah is exactly like that of satan the deceiver!

advocatejare:
Did I respond to you, the person I responded to does not worship Yahweh, he worships Allah and Allah is guilty of what he was accusing Yahweh of.

To you, stop interfering in what you know nothing about before you carry load wey no be your own!

tctrills:
No I am saying God did not make evil. Evil and Good are eternal. None was created

If we want to start talking about dates, that's a different topic entirely. The current discussion is not in your favour so you shifted the goalpost to date anomalies. Meanwhile, you and I know that no one can be perfectly correct about dates. We can only approximate and yet in the approximations, there's never a guarantee.

I don't want to engage in fruitless arguments just for the sake of it. It's just another way of wasting time with folks who are totally sold out to their own biases. I have better things to do with my time. I'll rather engage in things that edify my spirit than waste time on useless arguments to no profit. It wouldn't end, it's endless argument.

The more you write, the more I counteract you and vice versa. So, I'll just ignore. We can argue on other topics later on. I'll stop wheh I have already driven home my points. I've done that here already, so bye, except you want to be arguing with yourself.

Even from his face we can see that he is unhappy and dead!

Cursed are all homosexuals and atheists whether hiding in a place called church or not!

Jesus loves you, repent.

Physical reality is different from spiritually reality. I have spiritual reality as well as physical reality. You have none.

FxMasterz:
They're not just dead people but dead nations. Are you looking for testifiers among dead nations?

FxMasterz:
A more honorable person would have made a more noble response after I argued that the existence of the legend itself is confirmation and that the Bible painted more details about it.

You should go and ask the writers of the article to examine how the black sea flood covering an area of 150,000 square kilometers could suggest evidence for the Noah flood. At least you know better than those archeologists who made the deduction. Am I the writer of the article?

FxMasterz:
If you're a honourable man, you wouldn't start talking about years when we're talking about floods.

FxMasterz:
Chai!

They agreed that a catastrophic event must have happened with the dating of that event going back to about 5,000 BC which is about the same time as the flood of Noah according to the article.

That's further buttresses by the the opinion that says the witnesses of that catastrophic event must have passed down the story to their descendants. They believe that this stories so passed down by the survivors could have influenced the biblical stories of Noah. What could be clearer than this?

We know that the biblical story wasn't influenced externally. It was a divine revelation to Moses. The event was vividly described.

If Noah's flood really happened, then there should be legends preceding the biblical account. If there are no such legends, then the biblical account could be faulted.

The fact that survivors have their own side of the story passed down apart from the Biblical account gives credence to the biblical account. The biblical account provided fuller details so much so that a date could be fixed for the event.

Now, if there are no such legends, atheists would be the first to ask why it is that only the Bible is talking about an event that happened to everybody? Now that there are references to it in other cultures, they've got to change the narrative to ',it could be infiuenced'. They can't even talk in absolutes. Whatever the Bible claims, it does so in absolutes. There's no 'it, may', 'it could' nonesense in any biblical position.

FxMasterz:
How can anyone say some floods are the flood of Noah? The said they found evidences that suggest that Noah's flood happened.

FxMasterz:
The bolded was a Digression in the article referencing what others said. Read objectively with no bias. The writer of the article was pointing out that judging from recent discoveries, the fliood story might be true, and that there's a researcher who is hoping to find something bigger that could ultimately confirm the flood story.

FxMasterz:
The writer wrote for the topic and not against the topic.

That 'enormous wall of water from the rising Mediterranean Sea' is what you would fail to see.

No one can unearth flood, whether recent or ancient. What you can see are clues that suggested a flood Happened. And that's exactly what the article set out to achieve. To give us pointers. Rather than argue with me, you'll do well to go argue with the writer against his topic.

FxMasterz:
Go back and read. They never said it was a local flood, did they? There were examples of local floods in the article. The title of the article itself says Evidence that Noah's flood Happened. You guys love deceiving yourselves.

FxMasterz:
That yoruba story position is your opinion.

There are many such legends. I wouldn't bother myself with them because they still wouldn't profit you.

There's an ongoing archeological effort in the black sea. You may want to read about it through the link below:

Science generally is on shifting grounds. You can die today hanging your life on the current scientific knowledge or findings. After your death, science would find new things and therefore change position. Meanwhile, you're already a loser.

FxMasterz:
Tell me whether I mentioned flood in relation to the Yorubas. I only mentioned the name Noah, and you and I know who Noah is.

The Yoruba flood story would be very distorted if there's any, so any reference to that is useless.

Stories become more and more distorted as they age. The only thing you can get from a story of over 5,000yrs is a clue and nothing more then that.

FxMasterz:
Many bro. Even the Yoruba has a culture of calling someone with a noble character 'Omoluabi' which is a compressed form of the sentence 'Omo ti Noah bi' which means a descendant of Noah.

People like us should not be making absolute statements on events that happened 5,000 yrs ago. It's unwise. Even if we depend on what archeology has found today, do we know what archeology may find tomorrow? Archeology would still make discoveries after we ate long dead.

FxMasterz:
There's falsehood in your statement Cultures holding on to the flood story ate not necessarily situated in proximity to large bodies of water. There are cultures alien to the Bible, whom Moses never knew about, who have references to the man Noah.

These event happened about 5,000 yrs ago. That time the study could only be passed down orally since books were not yet invented. Oral stories would definitely become nyths to people who lives 5,000 yrs after the actual events. But the fact that the story is present in extra-, biblical legends and cultures that are virtually unknown to each other is a pointer to the fact that such a tragedy took place.

Your Nile River refutation stands on a faulty premise.

FxMasterz:
After you must have proven that He doesn't.

FxMasterz:
This response is illogical. We were talking about a global flood.

FxMasterz:
If there has never been a flood, why would the story be found in other cultures?
.
Remember that, story telling predates book writing. The only way people could pass information to the next generation is by telling stories which could later on be regarded as myths to those who were born thousands of years later.

The Bible gives better clarifications of the story than what those cultures present. In the Bible we have the full details of the event.

First tell me what science must find to prove a flood. The Bible recorded that before the time of the flood, there never had been a rainfall. Grasses were watered by mists. So, let's know the evidence that science wants to see. Is it the ark of Noah that was made of wood? Do you expect such an ark to survive after 5,000 years?

The name Noah is present in some cultures that never read the Bible, and were virtually unknown to Moses.

The fact that there are stories of the flood in more ancient cultures is in itself a proof and not a refutation.

FxMasterz:
Where are those people today? That's my question.

FxMasterz:
Using a question to answer a question. I know where He resides.

FxMasterz:
According to you. Can you prove that?

FxMasterz:
Are you the reality?

FxMasterz:
According to you.
