Genesis 1-11
Creation down to the languages being confounded. Tons of stuff there, depending on what text you are looking at. I think there are three different pages a person could all be on. The MT, the KJV and the JST. I am on one end of the spectrum, and you are on the other. I will defend the KJV as long as it is translated correctly.

You mean till or tithe?Deut 13:1 said:
I believe the Christian perspective should be to believe Gods wordDeut 13:1 said:
.So much of the Gospel rests on the foundation Genesis lays down, If you believe its myth then from what did Jesus reconcile us from?
Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. Romans 5:11-12
Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. Romans 5:18-19

Good point, I agree.NetDoc said:
Although as soon as a Christian regards mans ideas about our origin over what God has said about it then there bound to be lead away from the truth. How can we understand God when we are unwilling to accept what he has said is this earths history and origin, not only that but if you regard other theories about our origin eg evolution, you inevitable have a God who created everything using death, disease and sufferering which dose not reflect what the bible says about how God created us nor does it reflect Christs character, the saviour who could heal the blind instantly, make the lame walk instantly etc.

Steve: Thanks for the answer, your first sentance was useful, then I felt you left Genesis 1-11 for the gospel.

yes but i did explain why as a Christian i believe the gospel is very relavant to Genesis therefore should influence a Christians perspective of it - and that is the point is it not, a Christians perspective of Genesis? If a Christian regards the Gospel as very important and Genesis is explicitly related to that gospel then how is outlining that relationship between the two not useful?

Yes, I know, that's why I didn't want to bother posting them if you weren't at least mildly interested.Deut 13:1 said:Sure, just be pre-warned I don't give much credit to something that popped up over the last 200 years by someone who my personal opinion of will never be posted.
Moses 5:5-8 "And he gave unto them commandments, that they should worship the lord their God, and should offer the firstlings of their flock, for an offering unto the Lord. And Adam was obedient unto the commandments of the Lord. 6 And after many days an angel of the Lord appeared unto Adam, saying: Why dost thou offer sacrifices unto the Lord? And Adam said unto him: I know not, save the Lord commanded me. 7 And then the angel spake, saying: This thing is a similtude of the sacrifice of the Only Begotten of the Father, which is full of grace and truth. 8 Wherefore, thou shalt do all that thou doest in the name of the Son, and thou shalt repent and call upon God in the name of the Son forevermore."

Excellent post, Aqualung !!! This is exactly what needed to be posted, from the lost parts of Genesis. The KJV has omitted this very important scripture, from the original, unadulterated, Hebrew text. Adam knew about repentance, and the sacrifice that would be made, by Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of sins.Aqualung said:
Adam offered the firstlings of his flocks, as an offering for sin, which was done in similitude of Jesus Christ's future sacrafice for his sins.
