    Challenge for those that believe in billions of years for the age of things. Give anything that is more than 6000 years old. NO ASSUMPTIONS ALLOWED.

    Yes people are and were wicked but God told the truth about them. And yes God did punish some of them. Devil knows Christ from his creation by God. Bible is historical Please put up some contradictions.

    Well said, Sargonski. According to the Christian theological and apologetic websites I read online, the Bible was authored over a period of 1,500 years by forty men, from three continents, and in three languages: Hebrew, everyday Greek (called "Koine"), and Aramaic (an ancient language...

    Denial by non-Muslims of the Qur'an's commands to commit violence.

    I get your point from the beggining , but you don't understand what you are presenting is vague. First , let's talk about dust. Genesis 3:19 "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground,since from it you were taken;for dust you are and to dust you will...

    How can you be a True Christian™ if you don't take the Eden story literally?

    An omniscient God does not change His mind as humans do for trivial reasons, trying something different, making a mistake, or other such reasons. God may change His response depending upon human choices and actions, but those always remain consistent with His unchanging Character of holiness...

    How can you be a True Christian™ if you don't take the Eden story literally?

    The Bible also states that God doesn't change his mind, such as Numbers 23:19, which states, "God is not a man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said it, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?" And Malachi 3:6 also says, "I...

    What does God want from you?

    There are scriptures in the Bible that claim God is omniscient (Psalm 139:1–6; Isaiah 46:9–10; 1 John 3:20), omnipotent (Psalm 147:5; Job 42:2; Daniel 2:21), and omnipresent (Psalm 139:7–10; Isaiah 40:12; Colossians 1:17). The Bible also implies that God regretted creating mankind (Genesis...

    Where are the Dead?

    If I thought all the groups calling themselves Christian were following Christ, I'd feel free to join. But I don't. There are many things to say about the scriptures you posted but suffice it to speak of my first comment.

    Where are the Dead?

    Actually, this is more of a compendium of why you missed God. ;)

    Meanwhile who decides what's evil in your opinion? You?

    Where are the Dead?

    Appreciate your opinion. Actually, having so many translation is a bonus. Not to mention that all of these books, written over dozens of centuries, creates a miracle in and of itself in that they speak with the same thread of subject even when one person didn't know what the other person had...

    Where are the Dead?

    @Trailblazer, Given how inadequately the authors of the Bible depicted their personal beliefs about the afterlife, it's not surprising that Christians have differing views on what happens to people after they die. According to the Christian theological and apologetic websites I read online, the...

    Islam vs western values

    I have a question ... How did you determine that God is the good one in the Bible and satan is the evil one? How did you determine that "God is extremely good, fair, and merciful" .... ? 'Cause I'm not seeing it.

    Islam vs western values

    Please show a scripture that says don't beat neighbors. I don't know what they were. But, I believe God's punishments are for evil and unrighteous people. But, in the case of animals, in Biblical point of view they can be killed even if they are not guilty for something (lambs and doves were...

    Christians- How do you know Jesus and the Bible are true?

    Well, I believe God does make mistakes, assuming he even exists. According to Genesis 6:6-7, God regretted creating not only mankind but also every animal, every creature that creeps on the ground, and the birds of the air. These verses suggest that God recognized his mistake in creating mankind...

    I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things

    No we just offer the true meaning of Isa 45:7 and many refuse to accept it. IOWs Isa 45:7 is not an unequivocal statement that God creates evil, as varying translations show. God remains the same and does not change His mind when nothing happens to cause Him to come to a different...

    I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things

    Yes. This is comething you have mentioned before, and I've been researching it. The pattern is, God changes its mind concerning curses, but doesn't change its mind for blessings. Numbers 23:19? Balak is asking Bilaam to reverse a blessing. Malachi 3:6? The prophet is encouraging the...

    I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things

    I think it's highly unlikely that you'll ever find a devout Christian who will openly admit that their "loving and merciful" God creates evil, despite Isaiah 45:7 unequivocally stating so. On the contrary, you're more likely to see some very impressive mental gymnastics used to try to explain...

    Suffering and evil

    Perhaps if we check the original word usage 'evil', it will help. EVIL That which results in pain, sorrow, or distress. In order to convey the correct thought in English, the very comprehensive Hebrew word raʽ is variously translated as “bad,” “gloomy,” “ugly,” “evil,” “calamitous,”...
