You do?

So I guess is the seventh day not considered a 24 hour day? It is different based on when a person comes to trust in Jesus?

Umm. Are you asking if I am saved?

Agreed!

So are we still in the 7th day? There is no mention of it ending.

Ugh. I am having second thoughts about even posting this, but a question has been on my mind for a couple of days. In the creation timeline of Genesis. It says that there was evening and morning and that was such and such day. How were the days measured since the sun and moon weren't created until the fourth day. Additionally, it says that Adam was created and Eve was created and they were to tend to the garden and name all of the animals on the sixth day. Seems like a long day to me. Finally, we are told that when the Hebrew word for day is preceded by a number it always means a literal 24 hour day. But isn't that in contrast to Hosea 6:2. Again, I am NOT trying to start any arguments here so please be civil in your responses.

I think God has allowed Satan (evil) to do certain things. I don't think that just because people die it is Satan. If you are driving down the road and are hit by a drunk driver, it is not necessarily satan that caused that. And although God could have saved you He chose not to. No matter what Satan tries to do God still has the victory. God allows certain things to happen and other things He stops. We will never know the true reason. LOL like Jack Nicholson said "You can't handle the truth!" LOL

I don't know that God was teaching Jonah anything. But maybe he was teaching the whole of mankind about His compassion and love for us.

Agreed. I think Jonah wanted vengeance and God showed these people compassion.

The eclipse is happening right where I live. There is planned to be over 30k people coming to our little community. Not counting the surrounding areas and the people that will be showing up unannounced. They have been putting in the newspapers to stock up on standard household items as they are afraid the stores will be emptied. A friend of mine has his house on air bnb. During 3 days of the eclipse stuff his house has been rented for $1000 per night.

Oh I know I was meaning for the gal that posted.

I agree totally about feelings. They are very deceptive. That's what got you into the issue in the first place. I believe praying to God can give you the answer. He will reveal to you what needs to be done.

I don't necessarily think you have to tell his wife. But I do think it would be wise to cut all ties to him. Maybe find different social activities to be involved with so that you don't run in to him.

Hmm I have not heard of that one.

Thanks Yowm. Is the Bible Atlas online?

OK I will look

Thank you I will look for that book.

Thank you Jeff that is very insightful.

Sorry. I think you misunderstood my question. Or maybe I worded it wrong. But when was the stone age, ice age, bronze age etc. Is there a graph or something that shows what books of the bible were written in these era's?

I have a question. So I am trying to find out the "ages" of man and earth and where they fall in the bible. Like the ice age, or the stone age. A lot of people when they hear the term stone age they think of a caveman packing around a club or what not. I wonder what time period of the bible this falls in. Also, when a lot of people read the bible they seem to read it through todays eyes. I have been trying to read it through the times that it was written and was wondering where the different ages fall in.

What about Mary Magdalene

So I agree we need to be in the world not of the world. No one lights a lamp and the puts a shade over. All that stuff. So i think getting out and being with other people not only enlarges our bubble but in may enlarge theirs too. It's a win win situation.

True

So are you saying that I am not adhering to the Psalms?

Well I do go to work everyday
