By getting himself killed? Gee, that really helped the world didn't it?

Maybe not so much for the "world", but for those who are His, it most certainly did.

Did they get busted for having sex?

I believe Eve and Satan did have sex and not in the conventional way either. I'll have to go back and read a bit but I believe it angered God because Eve defiled herself with the serpent. The serpent being a metaphorical description of Satan.

And you corrected me about if it actually said "apple" or "fruit" ??? Now you somehow leap to the serpent having sex with Eve. Poor ol Adam really got screwed on this deal! On the bright side, the serpent was also the first divorce lawyer, which is why attorneys are so evil.

Most things in the Bible are metaphorical. You do realize that, right?

Actually, it was...nevermind.

And now you know, glad I could help.

Yes I absolutly believe it, however strict fundementalist would tell you every story and people in the Bible are literally true. This is how, and why, the atheists love to argue because they take the premise it is all literal, and actual events and use it to twist the symbolic meaning.

Correct. I had to ask just to make sure we were on the same page.

Oh no..at1with0,

Everyone is not His at all.

For those who are His??

Everyone "is" His.

I dont remember the passage..chapter and verse but the Apostle Paul is talking about two brothers. Jacob and Essau. Twin Brothers...of the same lump of clay from back in the Olde Testament.

'Jacob have I loved and Essau have I hated' or so it states.

Twins...


But God Loved Jacob and He hated Esau..twin brothers of the same lump of clay.

God chose Jacob and did not choose Esau.

Not everyone is His.

That is what is taught here.


This is how I know that the Eastern Dogma or philosophy is a phony and a counterfeit.

For their dogma is "All religions are the same religion and all gods are the same god."

They are working for a world in which the "Children of the bondwoman "Shall" be heir with the children of the freewoman.


But the Word states clearly as in the case of Jacob and Esau..."The children of the bondwoman "Shall not" be heir with the children of the freewoman.

For you see...the lesson, knowledge, and understanding is not everyone are His.

Even many who claim His name are ill informed on this and their ministers keep them this way. For they too are of the counterfeiter

It is not global salvation ...it is Salvation for His people ..those He Chose...Those the Father hath given Him.
