Death before sin is a heresy.

I asked a liberal theologian how he reconciles Romans 5's mention of the sin/death through Adam issue and he explained an interpretation of the Genesis curse as merely a spiritual death, not what caused physical death. My retort then led him into the weeds of explaining a kind of booster shot theory of how regularly partaking of the tree of life was the only thing keeping Adam and Eve miraculously immortal until they were kicked out of the garden and halted from eating it ever again. I'm amazed at the theological acrobatics people rejecting the plain interpretations of Genesis are willing to go through in order to keep their evolutionary Asherim intact on the metaphorical mountain tops of what beliefs they most revere.

Question for old earth Christians. If sin, death, devastation, illness, cancer, (which shows in fossils) all happened before man. Then what is the point of one man dying on a cross for the sin of man. By excepting man's word and an old earth you negate the reason for the cross. Man could not be responsible for the sin, death and destruction, as it was already there, when he arrived, so we do not need Jesus to save us from sin. We didn't do it. Some say It is not a salvation issue. I don't know. I'll leave that to God, and believe in His Word.

I'm only 3 minutes in the video. But I'm curious about something. I was reading Genesis Chapter 5. And it was talking about the ages of Adam and his descendants, how long they lived till they died. I was counting as I read. With all the years that go by in the Bible, shouldn't the Earth be at least between 8,000 to 15,000 years old by now? When I was a kid, I used to believe the Earth was 6000 years old. I'm just curious, from the timeline from Genesis to now, what would be the best hypothesis of the Earth's age? (Sorry, none of my friends or family are interested in these types of conversations, and Google certainly doesn't help! 😅)

[@kevinrtres]

Many people have done in depth study of exactly those genealogies and kingdoms and they got to around 6000+ years. Isaac Newton wrote a book about his calculations. Check it out.

[@christophercoupe5006]

Well if you read the genealogy in the bible correctly it's about 2000 yrs from Adam to Abraham ( using Genesis 5 & 11), 2000 yrs from Abraham to Jesus (according to historians Moses was born about 2000 BC). Jesus was 2000 yrs ago so that's about 6000 yrs.

[@Feraeond]

Remember to account for the generational overlaps that start when the progeny are first born. Adam was only 130 when he fathered Seth. Although he lived 930 total years, only 130 of that were as an offset prior to the time Seth lived. Does that explanation resolve the conundrum for you?

[@Bezanie]

@@Feraeond I didn't really think about that. So yeah, it helps.

[@Feraeond]

Awesome! You might also be interested to look into the fact that the Masoretic text which all the modern translations of the Bible still rely on drops a 1 at the beginning of the listed ages between Noah and Abraham when those men fathered their sons. The Septuagint, Samaritan Pentateuch, and Dead Sea Scrolls have them all being over 100 with that 1 added, thereby increasing the years to a more believable extent for when the repopulating of the world went from Noah's 8 to the Tower of Babel's number that divided up into all the different original languages. The likely reason the Masoretic drops those 1's in the ages of fatherhood is so as to discredit the Hebrews claim that Jesus is a rightful priest in the order if Melchizedek. A circulated myth in Jewish lore that cropped up to defy that claim in Hebrews was to suppose that Melchizedek was in fact Shem, the son of Noah who is a forebear in the line of Levitical priests. But the only way Shem could have lived long enough to interact with Abraham as Melchizedek is in the Masoretic version of the Noah to Abraham genealogy that shortens by dropping those 1's. The fact that Josephus, the Septuagint, and the Samaritan Pentateuch all agree with the longer genealogy and predate the oldest Masoretic copy by a millennium or more has me at this point convinced that prevailing Biblical chronology models are still several centuries shy of the total length of years since Adam. Never stop being curious, sister! Blessings and peace to you always.

It does not even hint at government subsisting on some fictitious version of morality formed independent from religion. All morality comes from religion and making any just laws without religious insight would be impossible. Whenever a nation attempts to extricate its rule from religious insight, the state becomes their own god and a new state religion then prevails. The first congress as one of their first acts of congress approved the printing of a Bible explicitly for use in schools. And they passed the resolution unanimously.

He probably also knows that most of the salt in rivers comes from sea-water mist that is blown in from the ocean. Still, he deceives his sheeple by presenting this as a problem for the old-earth model.

All of the dating methods have a tolerance range. That's not the same thing as infallibility. The Potassium-Argon study was a nice touch, though. Why not say _who_ did the study? Who published the study?

[@Feraeond]

All of the rock dating methods rely on the assumption of a daughter isotope baseline in order to deliver millions of years. All of them. I'd be interested to have anyone show a single example of a radiometric test that allowed for the possibility that there were already daughter isotopes present at the time of metamorphosis. The reason I can assure you such an allowance doesn't exist is because that likely reality nullifies the entire premise of decay as a dependable clock. If you want to say a clock reading 12:00 ticked for 6 hours to get there, you have to start with the assumption that it began ticking at the 6:00 mark. As opposed to allowing for the assumption that the clock was already set at 12:00 and has not started ticking at all, or perhaps started at another time and there is no knowing how long it ticked. The testing done at Geocron Labs in Massachusetts or anywhere else could all be cited for using these assumptions. It isn't even a contested matter.

[@ClaudioIbarra]

@@Feraeond the clock analogy is flawed, but a good attempt. How would daughter isotopes exist without decay? Also, multiple dating methods back each other up. Find a peer reviewed study that shows otherwise!

[@Feraeond]

If you consider the clock analogy flawed, then we likely don't embrace the same terms of logic and this conversation is futile. These comments sections delete any attempt to provide links or citations, I have already experienced, so what you are asking to be provided is not seemingly feasible here and you'll need to do your own research. But as the clip mentions, nine out of ten dating methods don't back up millions of years that the cherry picked one in ten methods deliver. And as to how daughter isotopes already exist at the time of cooling, that is patently obvious when the Mt. St. Helens eruption's lava dome rock is put through blind tests and already contains supposedly millions of years' worth of daughter isotopes on what only cooled in our lifetime. Same with any rock tested with a known age of cooling. The prevailing explanation for these is that until the rock has been cooled for long enough, it won't deliver accurate results when tested...right...

[@Feraeond]

You're absolutely right. There is no way a global consensus group could ever prevent any contrary publications or studies about heliocentricity or MRNA tech or something from mainstream examination. The Institute For Creation Research, entirely independent of and predating Ken Ham, is all a bunch of hacks with personal bias and the atheism peer group is entirely objective.

[@beestoe993]

"Tolerance range"? They are flawed at the core. If they cannot be successfully applied to rocks of a known age then there is no absolute foundation to formulate a conclusion with. Instead the missing "Y" elements are summarily filled in with the holy Billions of years agenda. And this fundamental flaw is painfully obvious in the documented inconsistencies that are, rather than acknowledged, IGNORED AND DISCARDED! It is a dishonest system perpetuated by dishonest people.

While the Gospel is not conditioned on the days of creation, all liars will have their part in the lake of fire. So it soon becomes obvious that as with everything to do with the LORD, we need to speak the truth. If God is saying one thing and you are believing and saying differently, then you are making God out to be a liar. This is blasphemy. You can put your trust in Jesus for salvation as is required, however, if you believe false theories, teach falsehood and do not repent, you will find yourself in the lake of fire. This is Biblical. Not legalism, biblical truth. For those of you who want to come argue, I am not teaching a works based salvation. I am teaching what is obvious from reading the Bible. As a believer, I am fully aware of Salvation by Grace alone. However, grace is not a license to sin, Hebrews makes it all very clear. Sin is not just actions, it is what we teach, say and our beliefs as well. We either believe God at His Word or we don't. No way around it. Either we are saying God is telling the truth or he is a liar. These matters are serious and should not be joked with. Those so called Christians who believe in and teach evolution are false teachers and liars. They are practising unbelief. Facts. It can't get any clearer than this.

[@Feraeond]

The strongest evidence of the Word's claims stands on the historical fact of Jesus Christ's resurrection. The prophets foretell Him, He validates the prophets and apostles who penned the scriptures, and if God raised Jesus of all people from the dead, then all His claims about God are vindicated. I would be perfectly willing to abandon the Bible if anyone else comes along who spontaneously rises from the dead and ascends to heaven having denounced it as false. If our surest indication of a spiritual God's identity is His demonstrated power over the spiritual world including death itself, Jesus is the chief cornerstone to look to for our hope and evidence of the Bible being the true revelation of the Truth. 1 Corinthians 15:17-21 [17] And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. [18] Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. [19] If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. [20] But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. [21] For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.
