Is the Holy Bible the timeline for mankind's existence?

Man you never cease to amaze me.

 

He's teaching you the wrong way.

He can teach a message of acceptance without the Bible.

But if he is to teach the Bible, he needs to teach it right or don't teach it at all.

 

Seriously, just think about it.

Mankind didn't take long from the days of Adam to make a mess of the Earth. GOD even had to flood the place he became so wicked in such a short time.

The next Earthly cleansing of evil will be by Fire. stay tuned

 

But he believes he is teaching right, so how are you to claim your way is more right than his if both he and you use the same source and share the same validity of arguments?

It is all relative.

 

People look for God, and they often find hm. Outside of the Bible, therefore they do not believe the Bible, so are they fools?

Right, however people tend to go to church and listen to the pastors. The Bible itself is a means of telling people what to believe.

I am looking to finding answers on my own, however I do not believe the Bible will be my primary guide.

 

Right.

You don't understand much regarding ecology and biology do you?

 

No, the Bible is a blueprint of time. mankind's timeline. people just choose to deny it.

Wandering in the wilderness. Go as you must.

 

It tells the history of mankind's existence? Really?

Where does it mention China? Or the peoples of the Americas? Or Europeans outside of the Romans? Or India?

 

Right, a blueprint that is not totally accurate.

A point that you habitually avoid in this thread.

.... then you fall into the paradox of claiming that your beliefs are valid than another person's even though you are both playing the game of unfalsifiable claims.

 

Or WWII?

You know, just the minor events in human history.

I guess the authors must have skipped that in writing a book from the beginning of mankind to end.

 

Not fools just lost and the BIble is not there to tell them what to believe, it is there to tell Christians HOW to believe. That is a big differance, its main job, the reason it was put together was to stop heresy and unite all of the Christian world by giving them something to look too when they worship. Something that they can test their beliefs agianst to insure that they do not go agianst what is the accepted forms of our religion. At least that is my perspective of it.

 

Yes. There are only one true road lead you to the only true God. There are no confusion from God. Why would he create other religions to confuse and create conflicts to the people whom he want to save and love? The answers is those religions are created from the devil to confuse people, so they won't find the truth, and fall with him in the end.

The Bible is the words of God to tell you the whole history of the universe and human from the beginning till the end. To lead you to the road of life, not destruction. To discern what is good and what is evil, to not be deceived.

Be my guest. Any other answers you find other than the Bible will only lead you to destruction.

 

For myself being an athiest, the bible is irrelevant to my philosophical beliefs. Although i do appreciate the religious element to historical indepth beliefs.

And also, if mankinds history can be contained into one book. Then it is worth a look. But can it explain the millions of years of evolutionary cycle and meteors crashing into our humble planet, the degree of life evolving and changing to produce humanity.

Or just a collection of vague parabbles? Who can say.....

 

God created human in his image, we are not descendants of monkeys.

I didn't say other things in this universe that didn't go through evolution, What if God created the little life forms and matters and let them evolve except human and angels? It's very possible.

We are special in the eyes of God.

Not my words, but there is reason to believe that the earth is more than 6000 years old.

 

What are you trying to say?

Why did you quote the first part of my sentence, but not the second part?

I also said, it could mean, "To God a day like a billion years and a billion year like a day".

Do you still believe the earth is 6000 years old? Is that what you trying to challenge me?

 

The accepted form of religion? Is that standard not control?

 

Laughable.

You are basically saying your faith is more right than other faiths that other people believe just as strongly in.

You are living in a paradox.

 

Right. And what about Genesis would exclude the idea of evolution?

11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

14And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

15And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

16And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.


...

 

It is naive to believe that all religions utimately lead to the same road, no, it doesn't.

 

Then, evolution is wrong, everything is created by God.

 

The Holy Bible is only book which exactly tells our beginning and end.

 

well not exactly...

 

I didn't say all now did I?

So what about practicing Buddhists? Their path leads to only destruction? Why do they disagree with you?
