Mathscum:
You sabi Bible.

Good for you o.
The issue Na to apply am for our life no be to know am

BackllGodNaija:
The issue is neither to sabi Bible nor to apply it in your life, but to know the Truth and walk in the Truth. I know the Truth and walk in the Truth, but do you?

Mathscum:
I know the truth but I don't work in it,. The spirit is eager but the flesh is weak

Inteltower:
thanks for that revelational truth you just shared.
I read that part of Genesis few days ago and I was amazed that there was a light before the sun.

your write up gave further insights and the stack truth

God is great as even the lay man would understand brilliant work

the stupidity of atheist I don't get

let's just keep preaching & teaching the gospel.
edifying ourselves and sharing this light of truth abroad

God be praised
Christ be praised
Holy spirit be praised

kingxsamz:
Please tell us how God stopped the Sun and the moon as stated in the Bible.

sotall:
Another unintelligent defense!

There is no significant difference between what happened on the first day of creation and the fourth day .

Except God made a mistake on the first day, why repeating what he has already done?

On first day...he created light and separated it from darkness. Then called the light day and darkness night.


Then fourth day created another two lights which he also named day and night.

How does this add up?


For we know that majority of the light that reaches earth comes from the sun. And at night, the light from the moon is a reflection of the sun's light.
There is another type of light which is the light of stars which is insignificant to us.


Now my question to the original poster, where is the light God created on the first day if the sun (the light responsible for Day and night) was created on 4th day?

Image123:


The Bible does not say that the sun or moon were created on those days. If i recollect, it says they were made. They were assigned or re-assigned as it were. Do the remainder math.

sotall:


You seem more confuse than him.


Now read: Genesus 1:14-16

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.


Pls pay attention to verse 16.

Then explain to me the difference between "made" as used here and how it differs from "create"

Image123:


You should rather pay attention to this verse.
Gen 1:1  In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The word "created" is deliberately used in verse one and conspicuously missing from the passage you quoted. Also see the below.

Gen 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

Create is more of origin and first time. Made as used in the verse is to assign or delegate. This is kindergaten, i hope you guys don't disturb me further on this simple stuffs.

sotall:



Now take a look at verse 16

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.


Read the last sentence and understand it.

"HE made the stars also"


How does this mean assigning or delegating?


Sorry sir you dont twist English language to defend the bible.

Made as used here doesn't mean delegate or assign.

Synonyms that fit into that verse include form and create

Delegate or assign doesn't fit in

FatherOfJesus:
Dude, the only source of light in the solar system is And has the sun. No history ofofny other light.

why not read a little more of biology and physics texbooks to help you know that you can't create a sun after a plant. That wasn't how I created it, whoever wrote the bible was high on alomo

Inteltower:


so sorry for yourself. please what's the nature of light and darkness and why do they exist.

if I start asking you questions regarding your own body you won't be able to explain.

I just can't my time on you. keep believing in your foolishness that everything happened by a big bang or chance.

one more thing.

close your eyes and what do you see ?

and what sees the thing that you see ?

maybe day and night had am agreement for there to be time and seasons on earth.

sotall:


The arguement is simple and straight except you wanna tell us those who translated made errors. Now read from verse 25-27.

I want you to look at verse 25 and 26 and tell me how the words "make" and "made" means assign or delegate?

Then proceed to verse 27 and compare to were the word " create" was used.

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

i have clearly shown you that two different words are used in the account, and that with purpose. You should do well to ask nicely instead of shifting goalposts up and down. We are talking about the sun and the moon and how the Bible does not say they were created but MADE(appointed). Man was created and appointed. Everything basically was made, because they have purpose. God appointed them or made them for a specific purpose. So there is nothing strange about God making(appointing) beasts, plants, and whatever else. there is no error in translation. It is your questions that birth the explanations of the words(original).

Errrrm, by STOPPING it, how else?

kingxsamz:


Please, explain logically how the Sun and the Moon can be stopped.
Are they moving around the earth?

sotall:


Stop shifting the meaning of words in the bible to suite your unintelligent narrative.


In verse 26 " it says let us make man in our image" . It didn't say create.

Then in verse 27 it says " So God created man in his own image".

I am quoting this verses to prove to you that the word made as used in the bible means to create or form.

It is very evident in verse 26.


Except there is another way to understand your own bible

sotall:


It is your tiny brain that invented the meaning of the word " made" to mean appointed.

Why not use same reasoning for Genesis 1 vs 26?
