I think the lesson is relatively obvious. But I'm not sure what your getting at. I assumed you were trying to infer that I am throwing stones, which I'm definitely not. So what are you asking?

Acts 11:26
And when he (Barnabas) had found him (Saul), he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
Note: that names in parenthesis I placed there for...

Well, I guess we will just have to agree to disagree, since for every historian/archeologist that you find that says todays 'civilization' started prior to 6000 BC, I can quote one that states that this creation started around 6000 BC with the Egyptian culture beginning around 3400...
Who's casting stones? You think I am? - It's the Bible I'm quoting, not me. I'm just another sinner. I'm quoting Jesus, and He is the definitive expert.

x. I'm not young at all - ;-) - But I am a creationist
1. nope - only an estimate based on palientological evidence that shows up on earth - which is probably not even close to the real age of the universe - afterall, God is eternal and that goes backwards as well as forwards
2. yep - Life...
That's right - God did give the message to everyone - He said that only through calling upon the name of Jesus can you be saved, not Muhammed, not Ghandi, not Vishnu, not Allah; Jesus and only Jesus. Read the Bible. that's what it says.
Now you've all heard as well. May God bless you and...
Your exactly right Deut - It is a statement of faith - and there is no way to absolutely prove or disprove it in this world - we are far too limited in our scope.
But as C.S Lewis said (I think it was C.S Lewis) - 'In the final analysis, when science can no longer answer the questions...
Peace to All -
Please allow me to clarify what seems to be a HUGE question all of a sudden; that is - 'that the Bible and the scriptures in Hinduism (and other religions) all have the same messege' - they don't!
The Bible teaches that Jesus is the Way, The Truth, and The Life, and that...

God created what we call science during the creation period when He generated all the laws and rules that make up science. He set in motion all the laws of Mathematics, physics, quantum Mechanics, electro-magnetism, etc that we know today as sciencific principles. Isn't that a positive...
Excellent question :) -
There's 2 short answers to it:
1. Why would God lie? He's the one that said it (remember - the Bible is His word through men - not man made [this could be another discussion thread ;-)]), and what God says becomes truth by the nature of the power of His word...
