    Before Time Began?!

    Wow and you have that same Strong's 166 word in Titus 1:2 twice "in hope of eternal life" which is elpidi zoes aioniou, and "before time began" which here is pro chronon aionion Word 166 modifies first "life," and then "time." Life eternal, and then time eternal. So life eternal is compared...

    Before Time Began?!

    I mean another Biblical phrase meaning basically the same thing is John 1:1 "In the beginning," right? The foundation of the world, in the beginning, and maybe, here in the OP's passage, before time began. Maybe they are all just basically parallelisms and mean the same thing, meaning they are...

    Before Time Began?!

    Most conservatively I'd say it means that there was a time before God created the universe. In such case it's basically "before time began," which is kind of a metonym for before the universe was created, which basically just means the foundation of the world, which is a phrase used numerous...

    Ukraine Crisis

    There's a link in a recent post in my fossils thread in the HPT forum. That's exactly what one side of the bickering says. You couldn't be more condescending if it were a school assignment to write the most condescending thing you could think of. The more important question and or matter for...

    MUSK BUYS TWITTER!

    He's looking at it like a dividend stock, not like how Joe Schmo is looking at twitter stock. Musk owns the profits now, all he wants is a nice dividend yield.

    MUSK BUYS TWITTER!

    I mean it's a computer program. Do you need 7500 people to maintain a computer program? Maybe 3700 people could maintain a computer program? Doesn't seem unreasonable. Worth a shot.

    The Second biggest evidence of the Flood. Fossils

    Is this an absolute policy for you? If instead of discussing the Flood, you were preaching the Gospel, you'd work with someone who "[approaches] it in the wrong mode," right? Even if they led with, "Christ's Resurrection and Christian faith and the Christian Gospel is pseudo-science," you'd...

    The Second biggest evidence of the Flood. Fossils

    Carbon-14 contamination of the sample or in the lab, sure. But these labs that do carbon-14 dating are well aware of the risk, so they impose policies which prevent carbon-14 from even being in the facility, to prevent contamination. (Carbon-14 can be used as "tracers" I believe in certain...

    Yes. In one minute. Maybe four. Why so fatalist?

    The Second biggest evidence of the Flood. Fossils

    Yes of course, but don't forget, because I think it's pertinent, all the carbon in petroleum and coal is carbon-14 dated as old, and this material is all said to be the same age as the dinosaur soft tissue that's been found. Why is there so much carbon-14 in soft dinosaur tissue?

    Ghost sighting

    Well it's not a them, it's a he: Mr. Tobias Forge (perhaps pronounced for-hey, but idk, he's Swedish). He hires the other musicians and they all wear masks always so there's anonymity. Who knows what kind of deal he has them on, but he's the only owner of Ghost, so he unilaterally gets to...

    Ghost sighting

    Huh. I guess I would just say that the video footage I've seen of them both playing guitar, Mr. Rhoads impressed me as knowing his way around that instrument more than Mr. Van Halen. That was just my impression based on what I heard plus what I saw. If I were to just base it on how it sounds...

    Has the Church Replaced Israel ?

    Obviously when Jesus returns, He's going to establish whatever political situation He wants. That goes without saying. In the meantime we are not only free to simply do our best, based on the facts of the matter, but it is our duty.

    The Second biggest evidence of the Flood. Fossils

    If atmospheric carbon-14 was different 6000 years ago than it is today, then our measurements of any carbon from an organism that lived 6000 years ago is going to reflect that difference.

    The Second biggest evidence of the Flood. Fossils

    What do you think about this article? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_geology I want to know basically what you'd say to a person who espoused this view, in an elevator pitch? Like you've got a minute, what do you do to attempt to persuade this person that they're wrong, in one minute?

    Ukraine Crisis

    What's your take on why dinosaur soft tissue samples always carbon date to something far more recently than even one (let alone 65) million years ago? The tissue's like 40,000 years old. What's your take on that? This is why YE and modern science is an endless bickering. You have evidence...

    MUSK BUYS TWITTER!

    The people who put dangerous things into Halloween candy decades ago, were out of their mind. When people are out of their mind, it's not because the political rhetoric is on a 10-pt scale, an 11. People who are out of their mind are just out of their mind. Like suicides...
