Darwinists runing scared Bump!
Darwinists rolling on the floor laughing at idiots Bump!

[Just mythoughts]

The Word also speaks of three different heaven/earth ages.

There was a catastrophic event that killed off all life in the FIRST heaven/earth age prior to man ever being form in the flesh. The dinos were around in the FIRST heaven/earth age.

Genesis 1:2 is describing that event, with follow up descriptions elsewhere planted within the Word.

Creationists do themselves no service claiming that the dino's were around during this heaven/earth age.

What evolutionists reject is the Heavenly Father did do what He said He did.

[rawhide]

In other news, two morons do their part to ruin the world for the rest of us. Who are the morons you speak about?

[rawhide]

Moron alert!

What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'Moron alert!'?

"The Texas museum sponsors a continuing hunt for living pterodactyls in Papua New Guinea. Baugh said five colleagues have spotted the flying dinosaurs, "but all the sightings were made after dark, and we were not able to capture the creatures.""

The are hunting for dinosaurs in Papua New Guinea but can not afford nightvision/IR cameras?

macroevolution is a myth? Sorry to bust your bubble...

Genesis 1:2 doesn't even come close to describing such an event.

[Just mythoughts]

Really, what does without form and void mean?

[Fatalist]

It means just what it says - the earth was a lump of rock awaiting God to give it form. God had just created it and was now going to form it and populate it. There is absolutely nothing in the text to suggest that the earth had form or life prior to this.

[Just mythoughts]

Isaiah 45:18 For thus saith the LORD That created the heavens; God Himself That formed the earth and made it: He hath established it, He created it NOT in vain, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.


The "in vain" is the same as used in Genesis 1:2 does in fact describe an event which cause the earth to become without form and void = waste.

One might call what follows Genesis 1:2 an environmental clean up.

[Iscool]

Gen 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Just something to think about...

The "in vain" is the same as used in Genesis 1:2 does in fact describe an event which cause the earth to become without form and void = waste.

You're saying the Hebrew rendered as "in vain" in Isaiah 45:18 is the same word rendered as "void" in Genesis 1:2? And the word implies an actual event? If so, there seems to be a great deal lost in the translation - neither rendering implies a cataclysmic event. It's late, or I'd look into this more, but it really doesn't look like Isaiah is saying anything here other than the fact that God had a purpose in creating the Earth.

Gen 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Just something to think about...

To my knowledge the only translations that render it "replenish" are modern revisions of the KJV. The NKJV, NASB, NIV and 1611 KJV (I believe - I'm not 100% certain on that last one) all render it "fill".

Just realized the quote from Genesis 1:28 wasn't from you. Sorry about that.

"Joe Barbera wrote Genesis??"

Well he a "creator" to Fred Flintstone.

notes on Isaiah 45:18
This Is From The Companion Bible.

Isaiah 45:18

   18.  For thus saith  ¹ the LORD °That created the heavens; God Himself  °That formed the earth and °made it; he hath established it, °He created it not °in vain, He formed it to be inhabited: " I am  ¹ the LORD;
and there is none else.

   That created = the Creator of.   Note how these expressions are heaped together to impress us with the fact that the One Who created all ought to be able to tell us, better than ignorant man, how He created it.
   That formed = The Former of.      Hebrew yazar = to fashion.
   made = the Maker of.      He created. It did not come of itself by evolution (see Appendix 5 and 8). Reference to Pentateuch (Genesis 1:1)
   in vain = tohu. The same word as in Genesis 1:2 ("without form"). Therefore it must have become tohu: which is exactly what Genesis 1:2 declares (See Below). In Genesis 1:1 we have "the world that then was" (compare 2Peter 3:6); and in verse 2 we have ruin into which it fell.

   We are not told how, when, or why, or how long it lasted. When geologists have settled how many years they require, they may place them between verses 1 and 2 of Genesis 1.

   In Genesis 1:2-2:4, we have "the heavens and the earth which are now" of 2Peter 3:7. Both are set in contrast with the "new heavens and the new earth" of 2Peter 3:13.

   ¹The Lord  =  Hebrew; Yehovah

notes on Genesis 1:1 and 1:2.
This Is From The Companion Bible.

1.  IN the beginning °God °created °the heaven and the earth.
2.  °And °the earth °was °without form, and void; and darkness °was upon the °face of the deep.
And °the Spirit of God moved upon the °face of the waters.

   1.  "THE WORLD THAT THEN WAS" (2Peter 3:5,6). See Structure, page 1. Creation in eternity past, to which all Fossils and "Remains" belongs.

   God. Hebrew Elohim, plural. First occurence connects it with creation, and denotes, by usage, the Creator in relation to His creatures. See Appendix 4. The Hebrew accent Athnach places the emphasis, and gives pause, on "God" as being Himself the great worker, separating the Worker from His work.

   created (sing.). Occurs 6 times in this Introduction. Other acts 46 times. See Appendix 5. Perfection implied. Deuteronomy 32:4. 2Samuel 22:31. Job 38:7. Pslams 111; 147:3-5. Proverbs 3:19. Ecclesiastes 3:11-14. [Even the Greek Cosmos = ornament. Exodus 33:4-6. Isaiah 49:18. Jeremiah 4:30. Ezekiel 7:20. 1Peter 3:3]

   the heaven and the earth. With Hebrew Particle 'eth before each, emphasising the Article "the", and thus distinguishing both from 2:1. "Heavens" in Hebrew always in plural. See note on Deuteronomy 4:26.

---

   2.  And. Note the Figure of Speech Polysyndeton (See appendix 6), by which, in the 34 verses of this Introduction, each one of 102 separate acts are emphasised; and the important word "God" in verse 1 is carried like a lamp through the whole of this Introduction (1:1 - 2:3).

   the earth. Figure of Speech Anadiplosis. See appendix 6.

   was = become. See Genesis 2:7; 4:3; 9:15; 19:26. Exodus 32:1. Deuteronomy 27:9. 2Samuel 7:24, etc. Also rendered came to pass, Genesis 4:14; 22:1; 23:1; 27:1. Joshua 4:1; 5:1. 1Kings 13:32. Isaiah 14:24 etc. Also rendered be (in the sense of become), verse 3 etc., and where the verb "to be" is not in italic type. Hence, Exodus 3:1, kept=became keeper, quit = become men, etc. See Appendix 7.

   without form = waste. Hebrew tohu va bohu. Figure of Speech Paronomasia See appendix 6. Not created tohu (Isaiah 45:18 See Above), but became tohu (Genesis 1:2. 2Peter 3:5,6). "An enemy hath done this" (Matthew 13:25,28,39. compare 1Corithians 14:33). See Appendix 8.

   was. This is the italic type, because no verb "to be" in Hebrew (see Appendix 7). In like manner man became a ruin (Genesis 3. Psalms 14:1-3; 51:5; 53:1-3. Ecclesiastes 7:20. Romans 7:18).

   face. Figure of Speech Pleonasm. See appendix 6.

   the Spirit of God moved (see Appendix 9) = The beginning of "the heavens and the earth which are now" (2Peter 3:7). It is even so in the New Creation. The Spirit moves (John 3:3-8. Romans 8:5,9,14. Galatians 4:29. 2Corinthians 5:17,18).

OK then, to paraphrase Marc Bolan, you won't fool the children of the macroevolution. Boogie on!
