So then, you have an answer to the "Zerubbabel Question?" No? Then why don't we take another look at just what the serpent did in the garden and see just who is guilty of that kind of behavior here:
God said:
"Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" (
Genesis 2:16-17).
The serpent said (words to the effect), "Don't read it like that. Read it
my way." He then goes on to put words into God's mouth that the Lord never really said and gave it the opposite meaning of what the Lord had intended.
Where does God say the earth is "6,000 years old?" Where? And why are you putting those words into His mouth?

Jason, with all due respect, you haven't shown anything in this thread other than a desire to slip-slide around.
more!
