Part 5 of Post Your Tough Questions Regarding Christianity

Your question is implying that Noah had more than 3 sons, so now we know you know Noah has only 3 sons. Why he was allow to live 950 years? Because he saw grace with God and God allowed him to live for 950 years his ageing must have slow down compare to ordinary humans, another reason IMO is that the people need someone to look up to and this is Noah for generations he will be the godfather of his children, children, children children. Now, you can ask why some people can live for 100 years while others die at 50 or 20 or why is Steve Jobs smarter than the thousand of people his brain is likely the same as yours, he ate the same food why?

 

Yes I know I just told you, God saw grace in Noah and allow Noah to live 950 years. You don't like the answer that God allow it to be, is the reason why you can not accept my answer.

 

Its not an answer it is a response. You can keep saying you answered but you in fact have not answered the question. God allowed NOAH to live for 950 yrs is not the answer to the question. I asked specifically if the bible stated the mecahnical process by which NOAHs body was able to live 10X the normal lifespan. Saying God allowed it is the same as saying pink unicorns sprinkled him with fairy dust. In fact that answer is more detailed than yours as "fairy dust" partially explains the mechanism. Yours doesnt explain anything. Dont you ever ask yourself why the bible is rife with things that contradict itself?

 

Guys, its an story from an age of stories and epics. Of course is has magical claims. But in the end it's just an effing story. The only thing more amazing than humans living to 950 years is the fact that it's 2013 and we are discussing this as if it is actually feasible.


Garden of Eden? Figurative poetry and metaphor. SETTLED.
Noah's Ark? Adaptation of Sumerian epic. SETTLED.


We know enough about how nature works that we shoudn't be discussing these as anything but mythology with claims that are naturally impossible.

Time to get to the next chapter and then the chapter after that.

 

From talking to people and reading posts in this forum, I don't think there is 1 person who can understand or interpret the bible. Part of the reason there are 100's of versions of christianity.
Ask 100 christians about some part of christianity and you'll get 100 different answers.

 

You made it seem like noah lived 950 yrs to help repopulate the earth.

 

There must have been some who listened as there are civilizations that date back some 20,000 yrs and have been living in community type environments since that time.
In South American, North America, Asia. Many parts of the world have civilizations dating back before the flood time and running continuously.

 

Here is a classic example. Even though there is clear words that say the sun was created on day 4. Some interpret the bible differently.

as when the dry land ‘appeared’ as the waters gathered in one place on Day 3 (Genesis 1:9). We have checked over 20 major translations, and all clearly teach that the sun, moon and stars were made on the fourth day.

Maybe because you don't understand the difference between how and why? God allowed is why, not how it was done. But it is ok, because the answer is I DON'T KNOW.

 

Do you like or want to know how the heart function and how it can keep humans alive, or how the human brain is different from animal brains, or why Einstein is smarter than you how about how sexual intercourse between heterosexuals can produce babies and why God did not allow same sex the ability to produce babies but most of all how the universe was created all of these were not specifically mention at all in the Holy Bible but we know how it works because God gave us the intellect to research and learn maybe one of this day we will learn how Noah was able to live for 950 years and as far as why Noah was allowed to live 950 years and not other humans is as the Holy Bible have written because Noah found grace in God. And God said it clearly humans are so wicked that life span is limited to 120 years, imagine if we all can live up to 950 years this mean we will still be fighting Hitler and Stalin, Mao will still be doing all kinds of evilness and hope will be greatly jeopordise, this is another reason why humans get to live up to 120 years only, of course you will not accept this answer you want to know how God made it happen, God can not made you know or else you might use it for evil purpose in other words it is a "corporate secrete".

That is a very clear answer not a respond as usual the answer you are seeking is denial not answer. I have ask many things about the Holy Bible and I have discover it is the Word of God, the fairy tales and fictions are all from individuals such as you who lack the ability to distinguish truth from falsehood.

 

One thing we all Christians have in common we all believe in Jesus Christ and the existence of God. that you can take it to the bank.

 

I understand it very well how, through the grace of God; why, because God found Noah to be worthy. I know, you don't know that is why I am at peace.
How about you? you neither understand or know how and why.

There is a possibility, as I have posted in part 2 or 3 nothing is being discounted because nothing is impossible with God for God is all merciful.

 

That is how you wanted to understand it.

 

There is nothing magical with the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, that is why Jesus Christ resurrection change His followers from cowards, fearful individuals to enlighten, and fearless people they gave up everything for nothing and gain nothing materially there is no financial gains or career waiting for them for believing and preaching the risen Lord maybe today there is a financial purpose where many Christians has found success and wealth through Christianity but not for the 1st generation Christians and many other true Christians who live an exemplary life in the name of Jesus Christ these are not myth these are all real because they were all inspire by a real God.

Is Paradise

Noah's Ark occur in the Sumerian region and the Sumerian will always remember the great flood because it was a lesson in history.

Yes we now know how nature works just how nature can cause the red sea to depart and expose the sea land for the Hebrews to cross over to the other side, nature is a demonstration of the power of God just how God could have design such a magnificent and well functioning nature.

Yes, the final chapter is that there is hope, there is eternal joy and happiness...yes, there is a God

 

Mormons included. JW included. Muslims included. Take that to the bank.

 

No your english doesn't allow you to understand, ie comprehend. That is clear. Why was noah worthy? What purpose did it serve? Who did it help that he live 950 yrs, this sinner who found grace but repopulated the earth with sin and evil and wickedness? When did this miracle serve mankind?
Peace

And has been stated, if possible and of course it is verified, then the bible is wrong or translated wrong or misinterpreted wrong. Take that to the bank. Peace

 

That is how you portrayed it.

Here is your direct quote.
He never had another child, there was no reason to let him live 950 yrs to repopulate the earth. Nada, nil, zero. But I see you backtracked yet again. Good for you.
Peace

 

And at last Lord ......... revealed Himself before ......... as the source of everything, the eternal form of the Supreme, the Personality of Godhead.

 

Mormons, JW and Muslims are not Christians they are anti Christ and the bank will not accept them only your bank will.

 

the birth of the Virgin Mary is seen as miraculous. According to Sacred tradition the Virgin Mary's parents, St. Anne and St. Joachim, were childless, when an angel came to them and told them they would give birth to a daughter. During the conception of Mary, she was preserved from the stain of original sin.

Was mary born without original sin?

TY - you have now established that all who believe in christ are not christians. So you were wrong earlier. Peace

 

Noah was worthy because unlike the rest he was not wicked, you kept asking why here is your answer.
Genesis 6
5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.
6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.
7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.”
8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.

What purpose did it serve? It gave humanity a chance.

God did not ask for the destruction of man, God need man to be save.
Yes, the Holy Bible has been verified and thousands have read it many have understood it and many have also misinterpret it, distort it and inverted it. And that the bank will take and secure it in their vault guard it against the exploitation and misuse of the Holy Bible the credibility is impeccable.

 

Why do you wish to avoid answering the questions?
When? Did this occur?
How? Did he achieve 950 yrs?
What? Physical mutations took place in his body to allow this?

 

What language did you read the bible in?

 

That is how you wanted to misunderstood it, Noah only need his three sons to repopulate the earth and live for 950 years to be the godfather to make sure that his children, children, children and children will live a fruitful life, he was to be the patriarch so that the people of generation and generation to come will not forget.
