So the 10 commandments were written on slabs of Uranium? Makes sense.
-
What are you taking about? Have you been watching too much Indiana Jones?
-
No. Look back in your old testament. Somewhere in there, should you use a KJV, it says that those who handled it died, and had a loss of hair and nails. All three of those are side effects of radiation poisoning.
-
The bible doesn't say anything about hair and fingernail loss. When the Philistines stole the ark God plagued then with tumors and mice until they returned it to the Israelites. When the ark was in the temple the spirit of God was atop the ark, therefore anyone who had sin would die if they went into its presence, because sin cannot exist in the presence of God without being judged and the penalty is death.
-
Read it again. It is in there.
-
Please cite the verse. But regardless, what does it prove?
-
The Ark had to be carried 1000 to 3400 meters ahead of the Israelites, on wooden poles. Those who touched it died, and the handlers suffered from hair and nail loss. This is stated in one of the passages describing the Israelite's journey through the Wilderness. I'm looking for it as you read this.
-
Please do, but again, what does that show? God wanted it handled a certain way and those that disobeyed, died.

The info can also be found in Exodus. Besides, how do you know, as stated in the article, that God isn't just some ET playing the part? Or that the bible isn't just a bunch of mumbo jumbo. The bible certainly Doesn't disprove the ET theory. The Ark legend itself shows signs of Radioactive material within the Ark.
-
That's complete speculation and wild theories. The hair and fingernail loss is not in the bible. And the other points are straight out of the writers imagination, not from the bible. And the bible says that God is eternal so that rules out the et theory, because an et would still be subject to natural laws, thus not eternal. The bible explains that God wanted the ark handled and cared for in a certain way and when people disobeyed they were judged. Anything else is futile speculation.
-
The image of God is eternal.
-
No sir, that is not what the bible teaches.
-
It doesn't teach different either. Maybe God is just the thought in some minds? That would make him eternal. That would make it so we can't be God.
-
It does teach different. Jesus is God and he physically entered into the world.
-
It never says Jesus is God.
-
Oh yes it does.
-
Where? Where does it say, literally, that Jesus is God.
-
Here's a couple, but there are more. http://bible.com/100/exo.3.14.nasb God said to Moses, " I AM WHO I AM"; and He said, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.'" http://bible.com/100/jhn.8.58.nasb Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am." http://bible.com/100/jhn.1.1-14.nasb In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Edited by CybrWyteTygr: 9/7/2015 12:23:33 AMThe new testament was written in the age of the Vetician, therefore, it contains bias in favor of the creed. Exodus however, doesn't say anything that directly proves the trinity. Using New testament on me is no better than if a mormon tries to use the BoM to argue with you.
-
The new testament was not written in the era of the Vatican. The gospels and Paul's letters were written in the first century. The verse in exodus has God calling himself I am and then the verse in Matthew, Jesus calls himself I am.
-
Now that I look at it, it never directly says. The first says that he is. Not is God, just is. This could mean a lot of things. I'm talking literally. The second says as of the only begotten, not that God is, but his presence was like him. I'm talking literally. Also, if we can not become gods, what does Revelations 3:21 mean.
-
Christians will judge and rule with Christ. http://bible.com/100/1co.6.2.nasb Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts?
-
Edited by CybrWyteTygr: 9/7/2015 1:29:08 AMI'm not talking about corinthians. It even says in revelations that Jesus overcame his throne and is sitting with his father's . This was after the 1st coming, so who's throne is he sitting in if he is God, because hasn't he been God this whole time by your interpretation?
-
Yes but the Father and son are distinct persons of the Trinity. You have to butcher the scriptures to come to the conclusions you are.
-
The thing is, I'm not. I'm taking it literal. If Jesus is God, why did he need to overcome anything to be where he is now? And if he is god, and we get to sit in his throne, won't that make us gods? Mormonism is literally the only religion that explains this, and they aren't even Orthodox. Why would taking a physical path leave traces of his existence, when making extremely large gaps in existence do an even better job?
