Man, some of you sure are taking a lot of power away from God. What about the account of leviathan and behemoth in Job?(and before you say behemoth is a hippo, look at the description of the tail and tell me you have seen a hippo with a tail like that)

I don't know how all the animals fit on the ark but it says some of each "kind" got on. Kind of like how do we have black, white, hispanic, asian, etc people out of just Noah and his family. God is all powerful and can do things we don't understand, we just have to believe He did it. That is part of pur "faith", believing without seeing.

Oh, and I have been to the Creation Museum but The Ark wasn't finished. It is a really neat place.

Also, if any of you are interested i an in depth study on Genesis, I highly recommend Kay Arthur Precept upon Precepet study on Genesis. It is really good!! I actually taught that last year

There are just some things that cant be answered but like most things can be given a good educated guess. I heard an atheist mocking a guy over his faith by saying that the Bible was as true as the Unicorns that are in it. Well unicorns were and are real but not in the sense that world has made them. The Biblical Unicorn is actually the Rhinoceros..dont believe me? do your homework before you doubt.

Deadeye, can you back up your "pre adamite" world with scripture? I am not buying this. When the earth was created, “The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.”
Genesis 1:2 ESV

Creatures and man weren't created until day six

If you want to see something weird, study the Nephilim in Genesis

Not hardly, all 5,000 of them annoyed me as bad as this one. And the same problem with all those arguments is/was the same problem with this. The REAL problem isn't whether or not dinosaurs lived. There is ZERO reason why it's necessary to believe in millions of years, it is not needed for ANYTHING else in scripture. You have no need for millions of years, nor some fantasy existence prior to Adam EXCEPT THAT YOU CONFIDENTLY BELIEVE MAN AND DOUBT GOD. Period, end of discussion. There literally is no debate, you CANNOT get anything other than a literal single day out of it, and more importantly there is no reason or need to. This whole thread now, which is 4 pages of complete nonsense, is a total straw man. Come on y'all, this is a matter of believe (or not) that Satan has dominion over this time. Of course he will teach anything and everything contradictory to scripture (it was his very first act with Eve). For Pete's sake, we still teach evolution in freakin' school as if there's no question about it. Nevermind that there has NEVER been ONE single piece of evidence to prove it the "theory", but every generation alive today has never been taught anything else.

I can absolutely back it up with scripture.
I have studied about the giants and continue to. there have been skeletons of giants found all over the world including the US. Remember they had around 1000 years to multiply and cover the earth and there existence continued after the flood as scripture tells us and history tell us. So yes I believe the sons of god came to the daughters of men after the flood and may continue to do so.. sounds weird I know but I can show you in scripture if you want to chat

No, I believe in the nephilim. Now how the giants retuned after the flood I am not sure I can figure that out.

Just want to see your pre adam "creation". I don't believe that

Dang, I told myself I wasn't going to get sucked into this debate and well....

Look back at the afore mentioned scriptures in ISA and EZE.
Take a look at Clarence Larkin and hid books on the dispensations.
Scripture tells us how the Nephilim got here before so doesn't it make sense that's how they got here again.

Lucifer is not a man, he is a fallen angel, but when he fell is not clear. We also don't know how ling they were in the garden before the fall of man so he could have been cast down sometime after day six and the fall of man

We were just in here having a friendly discussion about dinosaurs, and you totally killed the mood. You should be able to discuss your position without getting defensive and upset. I was willing to discuss dinosaurs and man with anyone that wanted to, but too many people on here get all pissy when you challenge what they believe (not necessarily directed just at you ikillbux).

You are correct he is not a man but he was not an angel/messenger. He was the anointed cherub and was adorned with jewels very similar to the high priests urim and thummim.
If being adorned as a priest who was he a priest for?
Why did he have a throne?
What man has been cast out of heaven?
What man has walked in the midst of the stones of fire?
It is very clear that he was cast out before the recreation story.

Ikr. Yeesh.

I don't know the answers to the questions posed in here and no one else does. What I do know is that God is real and Jesus is his son who gave his life so that we may be washed clean of our sins. What I won't allow is questions to which no man knows the answer to sway my faith. There are answers that will explain everything, but it is just not in God's plan for us to know them now. There will come a time when every question that I ever had will be made clear, but then I will be standing in the presence of The Lord and the glory of it all will make the questions insignificant.

what I don't understand,.. Is how admitting dinosaurs were millions of years ago effects any of that.

I don't see how it does. That has been my only point

Jawbone, you are 100% correct. All this wont matter when we get to stand before him and I look foreword to that day

Didn’t they use C12 to aid in dating with C14 because C12 is constant? I ask because I think I read where there are issues with C12. Mainly being doubt on whether or not the amount of C12 actually remained constant? If that is the case, it calls into question the dating methods used. I may be wrong on this and quite frankly, whether the earth is 6k years old or billions it doesn’t change my faith. Point is, I’m just posting this asking a serious question and 1) I don’t think this is the hill for Christians to die on and 2) it doesn’t invalidate the Bible.

I don't think any of this debate invalidates the Bible either but actually backs it up. Maybe unknown to some but it is a good history book too if you put it in chronological order

Yes I have been. I took the entire family on the opening weekend. It was a fantastic trip. Highly recommended. Top 3 trips of all time for me and my wife. We also hit the creation museum while we were there. One day at the Ark, one day at the creation museum. Any questions?
