Holy Bible (Page 2) smoke4ever: And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die." Genesis chapter 2 verses 16-17  (Post deleted by staff )  WillowManChe: truth is it was a simple command, just like a mother telling a kid to not eat this old food or you'll be sick Headline: I believe that the individual that the Bible refers to as Adam really existed and that his original personal name was Adapa, while Adam must be seen as a generic term for his entire tribe. The "God" in question was most likely a representative of a "master people". One of the names that he went by was Enlil, which later developed into El, Allah etc... when he was worshiped as a deity by the Canaanites and Arabs. (Edited by Headline) CoIin: @ Smoke - peace and love. I don't really believe it. Doesn't mean we can't be nice to each other though .  deuce916: Oh well. That's it then. We're all doomed. Obviously you can't trust women in this world. It's their fault all this is happening I guess. I can't believe they get as much say as they do in this society considering their judgmental capabilities when snakes talk to them. It's strange that this god let them have any children considering all the sin that has occurred due to the amount of people who've been alive in the world. Wild Country: After I have made you a sinful potful of delicious spaghetti carbonara, you will be like putty in my kitchen and trust me with whatever. LOL PS Bring beer or wine from your own cellar... smoke4ever: Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living. Genesis chapter 3 verse 20 chesney: Strange. I would have thought that God himself did that and not entrusted the inferior Adam to name such an important person in the history of mankind... smoke4ever: Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field. Genesis chapter 2 verses 19-20  Geoff: Jesus said, "Always let mummy and daddy know where you are." Oh, wait. That was Charlie. Charlie should be God, he gives better advice.  lavendar_star: lol Geoff your taking hardline approach to the existence of God, I have that approach to religion so if someone said do I hate Jesus I would say the same as u I cant hate what i think or to my knowledge didn't exist but not yet to existence of God I will call myself a agnostic atheists I cant say for sure but if its the God of the Abraham religion and that is obviously man made to my knowledge then I will give it a 90% probability base on its source. lol but maybe I'm lacking the confidence but you just can never say never I guess!!!!what came before the big bang was always the answer I gave myself before I became more absolute in my convictions. I was told to look at nature by a believer of what God is but thats not a proper definition, so before you ask someone does God exist please answer what is God? is it a supernatural humanoid deity or what? then I can answer but if its the God of the Bible well you have my answer already. peace all (Edited by lavendar_star) waffle: If my version is correct, I think I read that there was a god in there even before Jesus and that the latter really wasn't around during the times of Abraham and Moses... lavendar_star: Your right Waffle theres the New testament and the old and Jesus is from the new one and God is in both, and I thought Jesus was the son of God and said don't worship me as God/my father according to the Bible!!!!! not that I believe in it all. lol | Religion Chat Room 25 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
