Jeromejnr:No shame anywhere. |

dmandy:Congratulations! |

Jeromejnr: ![]() Please help your principal out o. Answer him because I think he is doubting the creation story himself. Poor Him. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 3:58pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:Well, everyone has what he beleives. As far as the belief does not hamper your relationship with Christ. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 4:01pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:Waoh.... Do you actually believe that line? Anyways, helping out your principal will do no harm to your relationship with Christ. I can assure you that. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 4:08pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:Hampering your relationship with Christ there meant that Jesus won't look you in the face one day and say "depart from me, you worker of lawlessness" or "I never knew you". I am not talking of going to chirch , or reading bible or praying. People do all those and still work lawlessness. Certain denominations also hold beliefs that encourage lawlessness. But the people there don't know that. They think they are serving God. So this particular topic at hand whether one believes it a certain way or not, does not mean one will be eternally lost. I am more against doctrines that could lead people to hell or deny God's power to help people in their various predicaments. I hate powerless empty words and vain religious practices. |

Jeromejnr:What one believes (including the creation story) is the foundation for his faith/doctrines/religious practices(vain or valid)/word(empty or loaded). You can do better than this bro. Come out clean... answer olaadegbu so that we can learn. Don't behave like him. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 4:18pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:From what I read. He believes in the creation story. I dont know if literally or figuratively tho. So either way, there's no issue. Besides I have stated my say on the issue. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 4:21pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:Why you guys dodge questions is what I don't understand. Well what do I know. Flex. |

Jeromejnr:The Bible only talks about one beginning. If you disagree give us a supporting biblical verse. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 4:29pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:You never asked me a question. But to support someone's claim. So why do you rant like to be evasive was my aim. Throw me your doubts and I will answer you, its better not to remain in ignorance but as wise as others do. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 4:30pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:Okay Sir, I will be back. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 4:32pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:No, I never I asked a question. But someone did, which you gave a longer-than-Nile reasons why you won't answer that simple question to support your claim. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by OLAADEGBU(op): 4:38pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:In a day or a million/billion years? ![]() |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 4:42pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:You never asked a question but you needed an answer. What word will I give for that if not a banter. Someone did ask a question and answers were given. He never complained but you took it upon yourself to vent your emotions. Repent and beleive the Word so you could be truly free. ![]() |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 4:45pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:No vex abeg. I am free. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 4:45pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:In eternity actually. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by OLAADEGBU(op): 4:49pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:Which side of eternity? ![]() |

| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 5:01pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:I don't have to go into all details now. Why don't you read Gen 1 and 2 carefully again. And take note of Keywords such as "Replenish" "the differences in Lights" "earth and water" Then second Peter 3:6. And also Is 14:12. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by OLAADEGBU(op): 5:08pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:Good. That means I can expect your answer in this side of eternity, any time soon. ![]() |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 5:09pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:Given. ![]() |

Jeromejnr:Jesus gave us a clue here: "That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation. From the blood of Abel to the blood of Zacharias, which perished between the altar and the temple; verily I say to you, it shall be required of this generation" (Luke 11:50-51). When was the blood of Abel shed? |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 5:22pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:And also Ezk 28. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 5:24pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
OLAADEGBU:It was shed where we saw it was shed. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 5:25pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy, I hope you are trying to learn. ![]() |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 5:31pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:Yes ooo brother. I am learning how to evade questions. I am very sure you have forgotten the question self. A reminder. How long is it from the beginning till Adams creation? |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 5:35pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:Answer have I given. Don't try to be cunning but wisely driven. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 5:48pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:Sorry if I misunderstand you. But I missed it, how long is there? |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Jeromejnr(m): 6:05pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
dmandy:How long is too much for your finite brain to grasp. Why don't you try explaining how long it takes for a human baby to be born to a wasp. "For reasons such as this, atheists forsake their own mercy. Look to the Word(Jesus) alone, for In Him is your rest. Beware of debates on frivolous issues for they do nothing but only promote strife and ungodliness." The Lord has spoken. |
| Re: Is The Adam And Eve Story To Be Understood Literally? by Nobody: 6:53pm On Sep 16, 2015 |
Jeromejnr:okay Sir, @The lord The summary of the above is 'I can't tell'. That's better than long story. |
