Genesis

Chapter 7:11

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

The water came from above and below. Its certainly possible.

Did death come before the disobedience of Adam? Did Jesus Christ shed His blood and pay a ransom for the dead before Adam? Did the creation groan because sin brought on death or has the creation always groaned?

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.

How does the "first man, Adam" (1Cr 15:45) fit into your theology? Does your Bible say the first "flesh" formed man? Mormons believe in spirit only men, do you agree with their theology in that regard? Moroni (Morman Prophet) became an Angel; do men too? Do Angels (spirit beings) die? Was Adam an Angel before his "incarnation"?

Always use the straightforward passages when considering the cryptic passages. If the straightforward passages contradict our understanding of a cloudy passage, stick with what you can ascertain, rather than squeezing meaning into words that are not very clear.

Mar 10:6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

Mar 12:25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

Pre-Fall establishment of marriage:

Gen 2:24-25
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

Okay. Those meetings might take up half a day. What decisions does one make using their free will for the rest of eternity? I've always had this other question, too: Do people make mistakes in heaven?

They were miniature dinosaurs - like minature Dobermans and Rotweilers.

I go to that place every time I go out to visit my mother-in-law. I'd noticed the pro-creationist changes there this last time, but I kept my mouth shut.

What evidence, other than your interpretation of the Bible, do you have to support the claim that dinosaurs co-existed with humans?

Adam, Eve and T. Rex

Not a new movie??? No Racquel Welch?

She makes a cameo... The new movie will star J-Lo, as well as Ben Aflack, who will star as a soon to be extict neanderthal, since she won't mate with him anymore. And Devon Aoki (Miho from "Sin City") will be in it too. Why not, it's my fantasy!

I know it because it cannot happen regardless of how long you try to imagine

Especially without any proof, just ideas and theories.

Had a nice maniraptoran theropod Caesar salad for supper tonight......That's "chicken" to all you creationists out there.

How do you know that dinosaurs taste like chicken?

You are asking me to prove science by throwing away the one thing I rely upon more than anything else. It is funny that the evolutionists and anti-creationists want people who use the Bible as their foundation for what they believe, to prove their argument without it. Sorry, it does not work that way. I am not asking you to ignore wherever you get your beliefs from, and prove your argument.
I make no apologies for taking God's word in Genesis as absolute truth. In fact, it gives me great comfort and peace inside to know that there is a God behind all that we see. When I read in Genesis that God created everything in 6 days, I take that to include dinosaurs and man within those 6 days. If you choose by ignorance not believe this, because you choose to have science prove everything you believe, you are in for a big disappointment and much sorrow.
The book of Genesis is probably the most attacked book in all the Bible. It is because this is the very foundation for people of faith. Do you and others feel like if you can destroy a person's foundation, then you can destroy their faith, and at the same time prove your point and elevate yourselves? Do you really seek to do this and if so, does it give you great satisfaction to attack people who believe in the Bible?
Let's be honest, is it perhaps because you yourself either cannot or will not try to believe also?
By the way, just to answer your question you posed to me concerning dinosaurs, I direct you to a most interesting and exhaustive site to visit, if you have a mind that is not completely closed-minded. You might find the answers and more to what you asked from me, and to what you are looking for. http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/faq/dinosaurs.asp

When God created man, He gave man the free will needed in order to make his own decisions. We are free to decide all things on our own. We can ask God for His help in making those decisions or we can ignore Him; the choice is ours. To lay the blame for the terrible sins of man at the feet of God is analogous to blaming the SUV for the mayhem caused by the drunkard behind the wheel.

Since all your actions are determined before you are born, then you have no free will.

I asked on this board why God would condemn all the innocent babies to Hell and was told that since God knew which ones would accept JC, God would permit them into Heaven even though they hadn't been saved yet.

Then you will accept that God created the animals AFTER he found Adam alone but he goofed after adam tried them all out God realized his mistake.

18
The LORD God said: "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a suitable partner for him."
19
So the LORD God formed out of the ground various wild animals and various birds of the air, and he brought them to the man to see what he would call them; whatever the man called each of them would be its name.
20
The man gave names to all the cattle, all the birds of the air, and all the wild animals; but none proved to be the suitable partner for the man.
