-reuben alexander- Proverbs 13:24"He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly." My father isn't around to discipline me or any of his other children. So, he hates me, no? He occasionally tells us he loves us. But I disagree. Because he doesn't show it in action. So is this scripture meant to be taken literally? I personally think it's meant to be taken literally, but I could be mistaken.
In my version, it is written: "those who love their children care enough to discipline them".
I would agree. A parent that truly loves their children will discipline them. Why? Because they care enough to do so. There is evidence for this in studies of Sociology and Psychology.
-reuben alexander- Granted I have a Father. And He loves me dearly. I know this. Proverbs 3:11-12"My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, Nor detest His correction; For whom the Lord loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights."
This is something a lot of people have a hard time understanding. I think it's funny that I've been saying that the whole time and I never really pay much attention to proverbs. rofl mrgreen
Yay for God's Wisdom! Amen.

Scarlet_Teardrops Okay, so I've noticed several Christians these days coming out and saying "Evolution doesn't go against the Bible". I don't understand if they're trying to win over people who are Atheists and such or what. All I know is that I have to disagree. Reason:
"Then the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground." Genesis 2:7
Bang. There are no monkeys or anything like that. In fact, Adam wasn't even child. He was a man, a grown adult.
Also, how He created Eve:
"While the man slept, the Lord God took out one of the man's ribs and closed up the opening. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib, and he brought her to the man." Genesis 2:21-22
The Big Bang theory doesn't work for the Bible either, because God had first created the earth and had put vegetation on it when He decided that the sun and moon would be created.
If anyone can tell me how these do not contradict Evolution and the "Accident", please do.
No - we are not evolved from monkeys - I do not support that "Theory of Evolution." But what I do believe is that evolving goes with the bible.
It is a scientific fact that genes do change, species evolve and adapt. We see that with species which are known to be found only on one island and nowhere else on the planet. God wants all creatures (especially humans) to be able to survive in their given environment. And I think that's what happened between when God made the earth (slamming it together - "bang") and when He created Adam. To Him it was the blink of an eye, for us it is millenniums. There are dinosaur bones. How do we know that God didn't have them inhabiting the planet prior to Adam. I believe that He cleaned up with a big flip on the axis, wiped it all out (except cockroaches, unfortunately), and created Adam in a new Eden.
I always remember this: Man wrote the Bible. There are pages missing and passages yet unfound (or incorrectly translated and/or transcribed). For me, it's all possible because that's what God intended.

ok you wish to use dino bones to promote your thery 1 dinos where here with job have you not read of liviothon or behemoth (legs the size of tree trunks and a tail that swings like a ceder ) id say sounds like what youde call a brontasourus 2 when it say to him a day is a thousand years AND A THOUSAD YEARS A DAY it is saying that god exests outside the boundrys of time to him time dosent move he's not saying time moves fast it just dosent move and if we adapt why have we not become immune to poisens weve been co-exesting with for years and three the bible as it is may be missing a page or two but you realize of the 3000 copys of original script we have eavary word is copyed the exactly alike in 98% of over 500 years of the "original" manuscripits and did you realize that one of the "most relyable scripts we have" the illiad has a 20% error rate in a little over 120 years and if ther where a full book of scripture missing ther would have been referanse to it in the other books of scripture
