Hey all... i have a question about what comes first! im learning about creation in confirmation, and im a bit confused about the order of things.

Greetings to you, lisaloo! I will be happy to try to answer your questions, as to the best of my ability. I don't know much, and certainly not all, but I will try to steer you in what I consider to be a Biblical position, and would suggest that you dig deeper into it for yourself and see if what I am saying might be true. There are a ton of great websites out there, but be assured that not everybody will be 100% correct in everything that they teach. By the way, what is confirmation?

I know God created the earth, light, animals, adam and eve and such... but where do the dinosaurs and primates fit in?

Well, everything was created in 6 days, about 6,000 years ago, according to the Bible.

Dinosaurs are nothing more then HUGE lizzards (reptiles never stop growing). If people were living to be 900+ years old, then we should expect everything to be growing much older as well. If you take a mature 'dinosaur' (the Bible--KJV--calls them dragons) and place him in the garden of Eden, all you have to do is wait a few hundred years and you have a huge animal.

The Flood during Noah's days was in the year 1656 (about) and in that amount of time animals would be HUGE....especially ones that never stop growing.

If you are talking about 'monkey-men' when you say primates, I would just say that there never has been such a thing. People dream that stuff up to fit with evolution theory, which has no real basis in science.

People (Satan) are desprite to disprove God and the Bible so they had to come up with an amazing theory to get people to believe in. Well, he succeeded, didn't he? But God prophecied 2,000 years ago that this theory would become popular.

Yes, I am saying that God told us thousands of years ago that this false theory of the origin of life (evolution) would be popular.

Read 2 Peter 3:3-13 very carefully. It tells us all about it.

1. People will scoff at the Bible (the fact that God created the world)

2. People will be 'dumb on purpose'

3. People deny the coming of Jesus

4. People use uniformitarinism as their excuse to discredit a young-earth belief (v. 4--all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation)

5. They deny the Flood during Noah's days (v. 5)

6. They deny any coming judgment

These are amazing things I am talking about. There are a TON of websites to look over. I want to warn you, be careful to study these things with the Bible as your only Authority, because at your time of Judgment, it will be only you and God...your teachers and the world won't be there to plead your case for you. In other words, don't believe everything you hear or read. Here are a few websites:

http://answersingenesis.org/home.aspx

http://www.drdino.com/cse.asp?pg=home

http://evolutionlie.faithweb.com/

http://www.icr.org/

Again, pick carefully what you choose to believe. Not everybody is right on. A great link to prove that humans and dinosaurs co-existed is:

I can't answer this question at all. I thought Endure did a good job of bringing up things I had never thought of.

Greetings,

Just this weekend, my daughter gave me a book entitled: "Unlocking the Mysteries of Creation" by Dennis R. Petersen. The subtitle is: "The Explorer's Guide to the Awesome Works of God".

From what I have seen thus far, it appears to be an excellent resource for Christians. With it came a CD which I haven't been able to look at yet, but I should be able to cut and paste articles from it as I begin to study the book in more depth.

Endure did a very good job and there are plenty of good sites for Christians to use. Here is the web site for this author:

Blessings,

Some Dinosaurs for you too read about

I'll make this short and sweet.

1. Psalm 74:13 Monster

2. Rev. 12:3 Dragon

3. Job 40:15-19 Behemoth

First of all would'nt oil fit into god's wonderful plan. We get oil and fuel from dinosaur bones.

This is an article taken from a website on Dinosaurs and the bible. Please read carefully.

Dinosaurs and the Bible

Most of us loved reading about dinosaurs at some time in our lives. In 1993, the movie

Lisaloo:

I also urge you to check out the creationist websites listed. Learning about Creation Science is fascinating.

I would also say that Job 41 is talking about a fire-breathing dragon. Don't think they exist?

Why would the Asian's have it featured so dominantly in their history?

I would strongly suggest clicking on the following links to show that there is indeed something very similiar to what we would call a fire-breathing dragon:

Some dinosaurs have HUGE cavities in their heads. If one of these animals had the 'technology' that the Bombardier beetle has, you would have....

a fire-breathing dragon!!!!

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
