  1. This is unbelievable! In effect it is saying to Maryland voters,
  2. I ceased to be amazed at the explanations given by evolutionists. Now I learn from an authority on evolution that evolution is only
  3. Tubal-cain, well let's see. Doesn't evolution teach that once there was no life, just rocks, slime and mud? Now there are people. Is that a progression or not? Evolution books propose a tree or bush of life from the bottom to the top. Is that a progression or not? Darwin's book had the word "Descent" in the the title. Does that infer a progression or not? By the way, more proof of the flood.
  4. Well put! Well said! You have stated the difficulty that the Christian Evolutionist (an oxymoron) must overcome. Is the human race getting better or worse? 2Cor 3:15 Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.
  5. I just take God at His word over your word. Also, the attack on this man is way beyond what is reasonable and is very unkind. Another Traveler, AMEN! It seems those Christians that hold to evolutionary theory are taking delight in Kent Hovind

    Is Jesus God?

    John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Rom 14:10-11 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
  7. Latest Blog from Kent. I quote in part: God has a host of reasons for sending people places. He sent Philip to the desert to win one man to Christ (Acts 8:26). He sent Elijah and Elisha many places to minister (II Kings). He sent Paul all over the Mediterranean including several times to prison to reach people with the gospel (Acts). As much as I wish I were home with my family and staff and back out preaching, and as much as I still don
  8. apothanein kerdos, Lorax, you're OFF TOPIC. Start a new thread. Thank you.
  9. National Geographic: Melting Mars Means Man-Made Global Warming a Myth An absolutely startling report about climate change was published Wednesday in National Geographic which stated
  10. Folks in this thread are making a lot of critical and judgmental comments about Kent Hovind. Kent is a Bible-believing Christian who is now conducting three Bible studies a day in prison and is seeing conversions of hardened criminals. Judge not least ye be judged. He thought he was abiding by the tax laws and his case is being appealed. He has led a lot of people to Christ. Before you judge or make remarks consider: 1. Is it true? 2. Is it kind? 3. Is it necessary?
  11. Thanks for the tip but... Link provided what was said to be an old version after installed and Firefox rerun. After install from Firefox Extension page link, the entire page of Worthy chnaged for the worse and the ads were still there. Probably something I am doing wrong. I hate these ads!!!
  12. Your work system probably has some type of ad filter. Find out what it is and let me know. I would love to block the ads.
  13. What is going on with these advertisements at the bottom of every page of a Worthy thread? I don
  14. Please explain, this is news to me. Matthew said Jesus was born when Herod was King of Judea (slaughter of the children). Luke said Jesus was born when Quirinius was governor of Syria. Herod was king from 37 until his death around 4 BC. Quirinius was not governor of Syria at any time during this period. He came to power in 6 AD, a decade after Herod died. justaguy has a point here and it deserves a considered answer. This is from Robertson's Word Pictures. I would be interested in hearing other posssibilities. Luke 2:2 - The first enrolment (apographē prōtē). A definite allusion by Luke to a series of censuses instituted by Augustus, the second of which is mentioned by him in Acts 5:37. This second one is described by Josephus and it was supposed by some that Luke confused the two. But Ramsay has shown that a periodical fourteen-year census in Egypt is given in dated papyri back to a.d. 20. The one in Acts 5:37 would then be a.d. 6. This is in the time of Augustus. The first would then be b.c. 8 in Egypt. If it was delayed a couple of years in Palestine by Herod the Great for obvious reasons, that would make the birth of Christ about b.c. 6 which agrees with the other known data When Quirinius (Kurēniou). Genitive absolute. Here again Luke has been attacked on the ground that Quirinius was only governor of Syria once and that was a.d. 6 as shown by Josephus (Ant. XVIII. I.I). But Ramsay has proven by inscriptions that Quirinius was twice in Syria and that Luke is correct here also. See summary of the facts in my Luke the Historian in the Light of Research, pp. 118-29.
  15. "The speed of light is approximately 186,282.397 miles per second, or 670,616,629.384 miles per hour, or almost one foot per nanosecond." Now if I wanted to prove something from that I would have used the one foot per nanosecond. The number one is in the Bible a lot. Isa 30:25 On every lofty mountain and on every high hill there will be streams running with water on the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.

    Birthdays are necessary because: Without them we wouldn
  17. Thanks for the post, Shiloh. It sheds some light on all these
  18. As scripture forecasts the world is turning against Israel. How long can Israel wait before taking action against Iran? Can Syria be ignored? Where does the U.S. stand? And what are Russian intensions? Russia Moves in Support of Syria, Iran & Hamas Time is growing short. At 75, will I see the Messiah return in my lifetime?
  19. trmfiles, very true. Also, there is no money in making a movie about finding the buriel site of John Doe.
  20. 1Cor. 15:13-14 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. No use in attacking Christianity at the fringes, go straight for the jugular.
  21. As God had said NOT to consult mediums or the spirit world would He then use an apparition from the spirit world to convey a message to Saul? Would He use a method He had expressly forbidden? I don
  22. Of course he will not claim to be anti-christ. He may claim to be Christ. Or (as I believe) he may claim that Christ was indeed the Christ. (There are two ways of looking at Mat 24:5
  23. Official Iranian radio has completed broadcasting a lengthy series on the imminent appearance of a messianic figure who will defeat Islam's enemies and impose Islamic Shiite rule over the entire world
