Bible Discussion Thread

I especially like the comment by ACM where he/she has us to notice verse 16 - The Lord Shut Them In. I noticed that in the bible years ago - not Noah, but God wanted us to know that HE closed the door, and we know that door could not be opened without him. Also it lets us know that when God takes his church (those that are ready) out of the earth that it will be powerful.

But did you notice this? God told Noah to gather all the food to be eaten for his family, every animal, bird and creeping thing to keep everything alive. Think about that a minute. Now think about this. After animals eat they want a DRINK of WATER. What do they do after that? They go to the bathroom. Noah only had 1 window--Do you all understand what you are reading? I don't think so, THINK!

Are you saying you don't believe what the Bible says?

Mommy you may see a boat being built to save people but I see a church. You may see animals entering the boat, but I see people whose SPIRITS or behaviors are like unto animals . You may see Noah gathering food to keep all the animals and his family alive. I see Noah gathering FOOD FOR THE SOUL. Don't ask me of I don't believe the Bible. What I don't believe is that people do NOT understand story

Not everything is a metaphor. Most of the Bible gives history of real places, names, dates, tribes. The flood is literal and there's scientific evidence of it. It was completely dark in the ark and he animals likely hibernated so they didn't eat or poop the whole time.

What I am saying is GOD IS A SPIRITUAL Being that lives INSIDE of your body. I believe every word the Bible says. Noah was a PREACHER of Righteousness. Spirit is the thinking, feeling, motivating part of man. You can not understand what the Bible is trying to teach you if you keep mixing physical things with spirit things. Some people act like ANIMALS before they were saved--are they animals? NO?
