I have read it. I stopped reading after the first 8 lines which are inconsistent with history.

The right up stated that Jesus was "created" starting from council of Nicea. My single poser to you earlier fault that completely and am sure the whole writeup was built on that faulty ground.

Followers of Jesus existed before Nicea council. The conveyor was a follower of Christ. Documents existed of followers of Christ. Hence, pointing to 3rd century as the beginning of "Christ" is an activity of trying to console a troubled mind.

You will need to do your research and again and very well in this to have better evidence.


I also discovered you honor the law of Moses and the Prophets. Then I wonder how you haven't seen Christ in their words. He was the voice of the prophets. The faith in the writings of Moses and the songs on the lips of the psalmists.

For more than a decade you've been here arguing day and night over what a book says and you're expecting a right thinking person to take you serious that it's not affecting your existence!

I'm sorry guy whether you agree or not both snake and donkey talked, your forefathers in atheism can't stop those that believe in it!

Have you read the Bible well and understand what it says? This is the basis of our discussion. I will want you to confirm to me first that you have READ the Bible well and UNDERSTAND its teaching and can confirm its false or contradictory.

I am not working on hear say or online reading.

Kindly confirm this first.

Bacteriologist:


I was a Christian for 20 years of my life. I have read the bible many times than I can possibly remember.

Genesis is the first book of the Bible. I have read it from beginning to end more times than any other book. From children class to Sunday school to preparing for youth fellowship when I was the prayer coordinator.

Hopefully that clears it up for you.

Although that even is irrelevant with why the Bible is inconsistent. How do you reconcile these paradoxes and contradictions in the narration of Genesis stories?

hupernikao:


Firstly, put aside the 20 years. You can attend a place for 100 years and never learnt anything or even being exposed to the wrong thing. So years isn't knowledge.
But this is aside.


To the real issue.

I guess if you have read the Bible well, I don't think you will ask the question you asked for me to questioned your Bible reading.

Your interpretation of Noah's story is a pointer that you aren't reading the Bible as a Bible student but as a story book.

Bible presented theology not science or stories. The writer Moses was a prophet, a theologian not a scientist or astrologer. How then do you pick his book and be reading as if you are reading scientific discoveries.

Even if you have been taught that, you need to start reading it for what it is now.


Hence the inconsistency you are seeing is because you read it with a wrong mindset for what it's not written for.

When you read Bible, find theology in it not science. Theology will point you to God's plan and the essence of the writings.

---

Moses wasn't the first to write Noah's story, he didn't also claim the first to provide that knowledge, it's a knowledge well documented in several ancient book if you care to read.

The people he wrote for (Israelite) already heard this folklore in Egypt, Mesopotamia and other ancient world. It wasn't a new story. But Moses presented God's truth using the story.

So, what a serious student of the Bible will ask is.

1. What then is Moses communicating in writing this story of Noah.

2. What was the theology being revealed which wasn't found in other writers.

---

So, find out what he was teaching his people since he wasn't teaching science and animal kingdom.

That means, don't read such story and be confused about the narratives. If you read it well for the purpose it was written you won't be confused.


What does all these mean for you?

It means, Read a prophet book as theology not scientific. This is a simple and common sense that most critics of Bible struggle to get. . Don't be one of them.

This also implies that, if the interpretation you were exposed to about Moses account of Noah's story is what you presented earlier. Then the 20 years of your sojourn in church can't be counted as knowing the Bible.

sonmvayina:


What is the theology behind the story of Noah...please tell.

hupernikao:



Have you first accept him as theologian, that is what he wrote wasn't scientific discoveries or you still see him as an old fake scientist?

sonmvayina:

What is the theology behind the story of Noah...please tell.

MaxInDHouse:


It's about how some angels did what is abominable and were cast away from the midst of God's heavenly organization.
So after loosing their dwelling places in heaven they returned to the earth and became deities people began worshiping throughout the earth before God called Abraham out and introduced Himself as the one and only true God!
So the story of Noah teaches us that demons or fallen angels are behind false religions that's been practiced throughout the earth today!

sonmvayina:

Lol...tiooooor.
Well, way of the mark
In any case I was not talking to you.
The letter killeth...your still trying to interpret the story. That is not the spiritual message in the story. Obviously the story never happened. It was adapted from the babylonian epic about Enki and Ziusudra.

MaxInDHouse:


The highlighted is all what any believer need to know that you should be ignored?

sonmvayina:

Lol..
So where did all the waters go?

How did the kangaroos get there from Australia?

So what do you understand by the letter killeth?

sonmvayina:

What did you take from the story...that is what I am asking.

In other words what is the spiritual message in the story.
