OLAADEGBU: Is it in thousands or millions or even billions of years?

nnatom: Note, the bible is not a story book. and messages are not passed like your reader Edet lives in calabar.


King David is the
man after God's heart and God made a
promise to him. CHRONICLE 17:11-14
11 And it shall come to pass, when thy
days be expired that thou must go to be
with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed
after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I
will establish his kingdom.
12 He shall build me an house, and I will
stablish his throne for ever.
13 I will be his father, and he shall be my
son: and I will not take my mercy away
from him, as I took it from him that was
before thee:
14 But I will settle him in mine house and in
my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall
be established for evermore.

and this God fulfilled by sending Jesus whoes lineage could be traced back to David through Mary. for more information go to this thread

OLAADEGBU: Tell me. How long ago do you believe dinosaurs last walked the face of the earth?

sweetylicious: I think its the territorial climate,but where does west Africa particularly Nigeria fall

OLAADEGBU: I thought according to the evolutionary worldview, dinosaurs disappeared from the face of the earth about 65 million years ago. How then did your carbon dating come up with 40,000 years in dating their fossils? If the Bible says God created dinosaurs around 6,000 years ago which one is closer?

When the scientists calculation and interpretation of data does not match the clear meaning of the text in the Bible I will rather go with what God says in His record than reinterpret the bible to meet faulty man's assumption because I know that God's word is infallible.

OLAADEGBU: As far as I am concerned, I only have 7 senses to discern the truth. Sight, hearing, touching or feeling, smelling, tasting, conscience and the Word of God.

OLAADEGBU: Carbon-14 dating is mostly used in dating once living things and not for non-living things and they can only give dates in the thousands as opposed to the purported millions or billions according to the evolutionists worldview.

The assumption of the rate of decay which is the ratio of 1 to 1 trillion. If this assumption is not true, then the method will give wrong dates.

kingk: Here you go again....who's christ?....and who did he say he's

Tell me who he's and I can confidently tell you that there's no salvation outside him.

chrisviral: To you its just to satisfy God amusement, but to thousands of christian, it's to teach us to what extant God can really revive us.

OLAADEGBU: We are talking about ¹⁴C here. Radiocarbon is more often used to date organic materials, it can't be used directly to date inorganic materials. It can only give dates in the thousands of year range and not in millions or billions as your worldview would want us believe.

chrisviral: God looks out for everyone and mets out to everyone what he or she deserves.

OLAADEGBU: Don't even start what you can't finish. When a scientist's interpretation of data does not match the clear meaning of the text in the holy Scriptures I don't have to reinterpret the scriptures because I know that God means what He says and says what He means. He is infallible. And since the Scriptures are the inspired, infallible word of God I scrutinise the standard interpretation of Carbon dating by asking the following question:

1. Is the interpretation of the data taken from observational science or an interpretation of past events?

2. Are there any assumptions involved in the dating method?

3. Are the dates provided by ¹⁴C dating consistent with what we observe today?

4. Do all scientists accept the ¹⁴C dating method as reliable and accurate?

That is why I asserted that all radiometric dating methods use scientific procedures in the present to interpret what has happened in the past. Answering the above questions would enable good scientists to examine the validity of the standard explanation of ¹⁴C dating.

kingk: The purpose of sending the deciples is for them to continue the good news of the kingdom, the father(God) and everything concerning his plan for mankind....moreover, prior to jesus massage, there're even good ones but the evil is great..that's why he sent them including me to tell the world even to you that we all should abide in one love.

panachuku: one day these men will be rounded up and beheaded.

chrisviral: The only difference is that God mets out evil to those who deserve it, say a punishment for disobedience and the devil is just busy sharing out evil to both good people and bad people, he is just in the business of doing evil...

highyo: THAT'S NOT WHAT WE ARE DISCUSSING HERE

kingk: Oga you're twisting this issue ooo. For me, I've tried to tell people that your religion alone won't take you to heaven, rather ones lifestyle, here in verse 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. please bro, is this verse also to the pharisees
As we could see from verse 37- 39 it really emphasised on love so if anyone should have the love in him/her, same will make heaven be it of any religion.

briantex: before you create a topic,try reading and understanding the bible

OLAADEGBU: Your assumption based on a belief in evolution, which assumes the earth must be billions of years old.

MrAnony1: By the way, having a handle here and the ability to be contacted directly does not prove that you or me or Seun or anyone else created nairaland. Try again.

Joagbaje: That's a good test. It's different from sickness. God doesn't tempt with evil. If God ask you to do something ,it's different from bringing sickness upon you.

Joagbaje: James 1:13
Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.[/color]

rawpadgin: no matter what they do they cannot drag the name of my God in the mud

kingk: oga, here you got it all wrong again..........from Jesus statement, He's the way, the truth and the life. meaning if the same muslem should keep to the greatest commandment Matthew 22:37-40 New International Version (NIV)

37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

malvisguy212: in the old testament, when the God want to reach out to the people it's through his prophet and they start like this"the word of God came to me" what dos this mean? When adam sin, man lost communication with God,but after man ask for forgiveness, the only way God would reach out to man it is by his prophet,but the people would not listen to his prophet, some they killed others they reject,God decided to take the realm of the flash,and reconcile man back to himself,now, wither man chose to be ignorance of not,the scripture has been fulfilled,you have a choice to believe or not to believe
