The 6000 Year Earth

[Charles_Darwin]

You laugh now, but if it was not so sad, I could say I would have the last laugh. You see, most who choose to believe the world don’t believe in God or know God. I know God and I know his Word is true, thus knowing that most in this world will spend eternity in torment. So I can’t laugh, because I love you and do not want you to live eternity in torment.

You must understand that this life on earth is like a mist that is there and gone. Eternity is forever and forever is a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, etc, etc, etc, time.

More daft threats.

If the world is 6000 years old then your god must be trying to trick us, for ALL the evidence he left shows its 4.5 billion.

“By”, if the Word is thought of as the Source of creation; “through”, if He is being considered as the Means; with or without reference to His being the Source. FWIW, the Biblical literature was truly brought into being by men - as God is the Primary Author of it, they, whose action is secondary to God’s & never independent of His action upon then, are also fitly said to be the men through whom God so acted. His activity does not swamp, but “real-ises” & vivifies & “dynamises” that of creatures: not least in the Conception of Jesus. It is a great mistake to think of God’s action as “crowding out” that of creatures: such a thing is impossible, because the two kinds of action are incommensurable: they have no “third term” in common.​

There is no fourth.​

“by” or “through” has the same meaning if we accept your reasoning of the Scriptures being given through men, who actually wrote them i.e. did the manual work. In the same vein God the Father used God the Son to create the “heavens and the Earth, etc.” so you could say that the planning was done by the Father but it was the Son that did the actual creation, so God the Father did not physically created anything.
As for the 4th person, unless you believe that God the Son left the heavenly realm when he incarnated, thus leaving the heavens short of a Person, the man Jesus, in his human body, ascended to heaven. Where then is God the Son, the incorporeal third member of the Trinity? If He is with the Father and the Holy Spirit what happened to His corporal form?

The Holy Spirit is not the Father of Jesus Christ.​

I don’t know how you can say that when the Bible clearly states that God the Holy Spirit came upon Mary? If the Scriptures said that the Father came upon the Virgin then you’d have point. But it doesn’t. Unless the Father used the Holy Ghost for this birth the same way He used the Son for the creation of the Universe, by proxy. You can’t have it both ways.

The Conception of Jesus is like every birth, apart from this: the procreative action of the human father, which is a feature of the birth of every other man, was by-passed. The action of the Spirit of God is present in every procreative action - whether of Jesus, or of his fellow-men. That does not mean that other human fathers are not fathers of their offspring; it means that the Spirit is as truly “the LORD, the Giver of life” when action through their action, as He is in the Conception of Jesus. Most conceptions involve a mother, a father, & the Spirit - that of Jesus, by contrast, left the father out; the action of the Spirit was not mediated by that of any human begetter. Jesus has a Father - but He is not the Spirit, & not a man.

This means that Jesus was not fully human as he only had one human parent.

hahah when did I say I don’t believe in god? I just don’t believe in your utterly absurd biblical interpretation. If you can produce 1 verse stating that that the earth is 6000 years old. this is a prime example of evangelical misinterpretation which makes about as much sense as the alleged prediction of apache attack helicopters in the book of revelation made by some evangelicals hahahah If you torture the bible enough you can make it say anything you want.

you love me? hahaha yes im sure. The only thing that will spend an eternity in torment here is your mind which has been filled with such evangelical nonsense and propaganda I don’t know where to begin. All the evidence points to the earth being 4.5 billion years old and the universe being 14 billion years old.

So im going to burn in hell because I don’t follow your particular “brand” of Christianity is that what you are telling me?

Seeing the utter nonsense you espouse makes me glad that I left evangelicalism when I did.
