>>17338013
Without understanding, even the greatest of humans would be bereft of virtue and incapable of understanding. They were nigs indeed.

If the true almighty God created A&E he would know the future and had created us without a mind, so we never could get trapped in illusions. But this God could be a genetics doctor who crossed his genes with ape genes.
Remember our environment is a hazard for outerworldy creatures because of the bacteria, viruses, Co2 levels, radiation levels etc.
So, imo the garden truely existed and human 1.0 was extinct or whipped out.
The tree of knowledge symbolizes our brain. The apple is our mind and the snake is the lie or illusion in general.
Our 'father' warned us never to use our mind, made thing up or to lie or we would lose the state of heaven and the connection to everything.
The snake is also a the kundalini energy which powers up our brain /mind.

I just find it funny with this whole fate vs destiny concept. As we all know, God created each being with a certain purpose; a path in which you are to take. Your destiny. However, you can change it by the different choices you make. So in theory, Lucifer was destined to fall. Lucifer was destined to provide Eve with the apple or knowledge and truth. So to answer you question, yes. I believe God knew Eve would take the bait. But like I said before, you change your path by making certain decisions... And he was hoping Eve rejected the fruit of knowledge. Rejected Temptation.

3 it is only about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden that God said, ‘You shall not eat it or even touch it, or else you will die.’” 4 But the snake said to the woman: “You certainly will not die!

Yes, he absolutely did.

>>17338154
> And he was hoping Eve rejected th..
If God had to hope, he would be very lousy with his creation. He gave immortality to his creation and free will and infinity is worst curse of all and the second curse is hope. The Paradise you describe could only be hell and he would be the devil. Never create something that only can suffer, we have more ethics today as the god you describe. Sorry

>here's free will
> jk u have to do what i say or i damn you

God giving free will is a myth. His only accepted will is for you to serve him unconditionally. True free will would be void of any consequences for your will.

>>17338289
The point of free will is so that the choice matters, not so that we can just do whatever we want with no consequences.

>>17338289
This.

Christians may reply with whatever convoluted shit they can, but in the end, there is no room for free will in Christianity. There's not much choice: you either 'choose' God or eternal suffering. Not much of a choice...

>>17338298
Free will is a joke or a threat unless it can be explored without the threat of damnation by he who gifts it to us

>>17338232

We don't have to fear and consequences, because the creator forgot to give us to see the future and made us blind to see the consequences of our actions and he forgot to gave us all the knowledge of good and bad, so we have to do bad to know what is good.
Let's be realistic, the knowledge is there, the Indian part of the story is good but the evangelists blended to much into the new testament, God and his actions are put evil!

I can't take Christianity seriously.

What was the point in creating? As a perfect, ideal, beingg, why would God feel the need to create us? Any answer such as "for company" is one that goes against all Christian dogma, because - being perfect - He would not benefit from anyone's company, and - being eternal - He would have had as much time before him as behind him, meaning that something had somehow prompted him to make humans at an arbitrary point, which is also anathema in Christian thought, for God cannot change his mind, since, being perfect, He is stillness, and does not 'come to' realizations or develop in terms of personality or thought, already being the nexus.

The very fact that one would feel compelled to create - and hence, express something like 'needs' or 'desires' - means God is not perfect, and not being perfect, not worthy of worship.

>>17338357
>As a perfect, ideal, being, why would God feel the need to create us?
So that he would have something to choose to follow him.

>>17338365
And why would God desire that? One of the attributes of him is omniscience: perfect knowledge of all things that could be.

In theory, His omniscience would ensure He already knows everything, every detail and minutae that accompanies every single 'thing' in all would-be existence(s). Knowing 'everything' that could be created so perfectly, what need would be there to actually go and make it 'real', since his omniscience would ensure the thoughts and knowledge (projections) in his mind of things-that-might-be would be just the same as 'reality', if he chose to create it.

Blanket ban on Christfag threads when.

>>17338357
God is perfect and he is searching for imperfection! God, not the evil one in the Bible, is literally everything, because he is consciousness. He created the universe and all things which are consciousness (God) in a different density. Our purpose is to observe his creation which is God with the mission to search for imperfection which can only be another consciousness and another God or goddess, God in his almighty perfection is just AL(L)ONE!

>>17338394
This.

I've had enough of Christfags. I remember 4chan was never exactly a place for religious fucks - most people were agnostic/atheist, in spite of the generally centre-right attitude. Now it's full of Christcucks.

>>17338402
>Lol lets ban something relevant to the topic of the board

>>17338413
No, that's omniscience, which is a fundamental aspect of God for Christcucks.

>>17338421

>>17338389

This is what I thought as well, maybe god isnt as infinite as we all like to think, maybe he created us because he knew we would one day reach the point in which we finally start to edit and evolve of own DNA, and if scientists are right the universe is collapsing back on itself, maybe one super form of human will one day be the next god and recreate the big bang again and restart the cycle? talking out of my ass, but everything is a theory until we die.

>>17338423
Having omniscience means being all-knowing. That doesn't mean that the knowledge is the exact same as reality. That aspect is not a part of the definition, and is your opinion.

>>17338430
>Belief system detailing the creation of the world, supernatural powers, demons and angels, etc
>Not paranormal

>>17338438
>everything is a theory until we die.
This is your theory do you really think we will be able to understand everything even in the afterlife, if we could, we had the garden of eden paradox. We die stupid and we will reborn stupid and this is science.

>>17338438
The only way I can reconcile a perfect being and our 'existence' is that what I said is true: that God indeed never created the universe - having no need or desire to -, and as we are right now, we are merely 'projections' (his thoughts, knowledge) of his omnipotence in his head, if he had created the universe. And there exist countless others 'projections', which are akin to human fantasies or day-dreams, except on a grander scale.

Other than that, I can't accept that a perfect deity created anything. Perhaps a deity did create the universe, but then it is not perfect one that did, simply because all motion (action) is the result of something (and God the perfect is unmoved): the perfect God is stillness and contemplation and self-contained - the Monad or the Alien God of Gnosticism and Marcionism.

>>17338468
Or maybe your definition of perfect is wrong.

>>17338444
>>17338398
>Not paranormal
The source of all paranormal is God aka consciousness!

>>17338480
Yes, only everything together can be perfect, this is the definition of perfect. Thing is imperfect, everything is perfect.

>>17338495

Once again, your opinion. Before you try to say the second definition is what you're saying, reread it and realize that no, it isn't.

You're being fucking ridiculous. Stupid Christcuck.

"knowledge", as in tree of knowledge, implies you are on your own to make mistakes. It was a name given to the tree after by who was telling the story. (it has nothing to do with an intrinsic characteristic of it or it's fruit).

When they ate the apple what's in question is not what the apple was, nor did it actually give them super powers - it's the fact that they doubted gods judgement, they didn't trust him, they thought god didnt knew better what was good for them. They had grown up. There's plenty of shit out there in nature you shouldn't eat even if it doesn't kill you.

Part of the lesson in any religion is that you're suppose to trust the divinity, not question its judgement or try to understand what he means or wants, who the fuck do you think you are: A monkey or dust, you will never understand god or his thoughts doesn't matter how much you meditate or argue or how many books and commentaries you spend your life writting - you don't have the hard drive to run that exe. It's like installing win 10 on a toaster... More, on a sock.

So god went like: "Know what fuck you then, you're a creation of that dumb demiurge anyway." So HE left the garden.

The "snake" didn't trick them cause the "snake" doesn't exist: It's a metaphor for men's distrust in god and will for independence, crawling from men's rotten core (like courage would be a lion or such) coming to the surface showing what a fuck up he is on the first trial he comes across.

Thankfully, Christianity isn't real.

The nephilim probably wouldn't have been creating if Eve did not listen to the serpent.

The allegory about this story is about falling out of perfection and becoming imperfect by disobeying God.

>>17338557

Eve was not born pure as Adam was

The snake never spoke; the account in Genesis includes details from Eve's eyewitness account integrated into the main narrative. She just did whatever she wanted and made up something about a snake to excuse herself from being responsible for whatever consequences it could have.

God didn't want to allow humans to have free will because God knew that being exposed to humans like that would render God inert, God would himself be corrupted, and he was. He allowed it to happen because humans needed to be free to find their own destiny, and God cared about that concept enough to allow humans to corrupt the perfection that God had existed as. God is the reflection of the universe, before disorder was introduced he was an entity of perfect order. Traces of whatever this event was is shown in the imbalance in cosmic background radiation, and is tied to the reason for the irregularity in the universe/the imbalance of matter/antimatter.

It tasted like a teen's first puff of a joint. Like the philosopher Peter Steele said once, freedom is not doing whatever the hell we want all the time; is knowing that there are limits and rules, and doing the most we can inside them.

I know some folks interpret it as God speaking of a sort of spiritual transfiguration or devolution rather than the serpent's more gross and bodily death. Perhaps the legless serpent, destined to be lowest among animals, is more preoccupied with the physical, the material, and the corporeal. Identifying the serpent with Lucifer might make sense that way as well - as Lucifer refused to submit to purported divine wisdom out of his polarized thinking, thus causing his fall.

Modern theology typically puts a check on one of God's characteristic qualities: omniscience, omnipotence, omnibenevolence. Usually they elect to limit Its power (God's existence provides the continual basis for manifesting forms/being and becoming, but even God cannot contradict Its own nature and effect, for example, a violation of logical laws - e.g., create something distinct from itself), though some choose the first. Almost never do they limit Its omnibenevolence, understandably. In any case, there is no reason to jump straight to compromising Its goodness. In doing so it just raises complications about moral ontology that you should be well prepared to address (which you cannot if you maintain modern ethics surpasses a supposed divine law).

Yahweh is the god of the Jews, hence he's a wicked demon and Satan himself. Jesus called him the lord of this world.

>>17339640
Nowhere. It is generally known as an apple though. This is why you see "Apple" computers inc having their first computer set at 666.66 dollars or the tv anime Deathnote being surrounded with the apple symbology. Apple represents sin, it's not actually the fruit of the tree, at least I do not believe so, but the Bible does not tell us.

>>17338357
God isn't perfect.
Can be all knowing, all powerful, all benevolent.
CHOOSE TWO.
Obviously he isn't all knowing because of his need to create Jesus to know what being mortal is like, which was the whole purpose of being born as Jesus. He then sacrifices his son, which his himself, to absolve us of our sins. He didn't know being human and mortal was so bad, which is why he did that so that we may have salvation from ourselves.

Personally, I think God fucked off after Jesus rose from the grave and gave his final message. Knowing how messed up we are and how bad being mortal is, he just left us to our own devices with a way out, if we so choose it. No further need to meddle in our affairs.

So we can believe in God and what he has done for us or choose not to. It is our choice. Of course, you'll go to hell if you choose wrong, so there is not much choice at all. Another failing of a "Perfect" being, proving again he isn't perfect.

> If I had the energy I'd refute every single point here.
And how do you know that you are not ignorant to? I can give you a simple answer, which would include all of the interpretation. You all are fighting about semantics. All the books ever written and all the stories ever told, every thought ever thought and every dream ever dreamt comes from the same origin with the same purpose to collect and process informations. I can say that everything is absolutely true, but only an infinite small piece of the puzzle.
The big problem is, that we are getting those informations personally and not professional, that's why you think you haven't enough energy to refute everything. Why not stop arguing and take all the informations you gathered so far in your life and 'calculate' the conclusion and wipe them all away with one single stroke? With all the time you wasted defending and interpreting the conclusion of human you forgot to do your work by coming to a conclusion and transform the conclusion into this time so that the current common sense can make use of it and all can go a step further. Most of the people are chewing on the conclusions of very advances humans from the past instead of helping others to come to the same conclusions and get new ones.
I came to the conclusion that everything is everything and as soon I got this after crunching the numbers collected from the past 43 years my computer aka mind shut down and I was connected with everything. That's all, that's my 42.

Maybe you should explain what problem you have with religion in the first place. You want sympathy, right? You want people to understand you, right? Then you should be more sympathetic and not so abrasive. Your personaity grates on a lot of people and makes them assume all namefags are like you. Normally I don't care and don't namefag/tripfag. I just thought I would one time, for old time's sake. I also have freedom to choose what I do. I'm a off and on Christian - mostly because of my study of esoteric subjects and other things.

>>17342216

I didn't declare god doesn't exist.

>>17342241
The English word for God is severely lacking in nuance or character, but most would agree on what it means. It is a way of talking about the Judeo-Christian divinity. The Creator and Sustainer of the Universe. The one who will raise everyone back to life and judge everyone according to his works. Basically it encapsulates a lot within the very simple word. For this reason, we often go to other words to better talk about who that being is. Muslims call him Allah rather than God, because it shows his uniqueness even when not speaking Arabic. Culturally this was true even in Arabic, where Allah was a proper noun. It was never used to mean polytheistic gods or spirits. Only for the Almighty, another word used to designate the same thing. Thanks to a myriad of similar cultures, we can gloss over many other examples. East Asian shen/kami/san/shin are all words for the Sinic gods. This is also used to designate a monotheistic god, as described previously. For all this, we still have a hard time describing "el-ohim" or "Rabba" as anything but "Avinu" or Father.

>>17342266
Yes He has many names. I use God simply for the fact it is the most readally understood term for Him. Personally I prefer "he who causes to become"

It's quite descriptive

>>17342266
>The Creator and Sustainer of the Universe
I can agree with you, but you should expand your understanding of the universe. The universe you perceive is only an infinite small fraction of everything. If you define that God created your universe true, but he is infinite greater. When he is also the creator of time. He maintains every possible possible variation of time simultaneously, which means we are all somehow frozen in time which would collide with free will. The only possible way how God could create time and space and gave us free will is, that god creates the universe trough us. Which means God creates for every living entity his own universes. And free will can only produced by separation, which means God has to hide himself from us and puts us in a bubble where we are separated and have the illusion of individuals.

>>17342351
Interestingly enough, in the Quran Allah is called the "Lord of the Worlds" which seems to imply he created many other planets. This is one of the things that should have caught on with popular culture, like how everyone thinks you have an angel and a devil. That latter belief is from Islam as well.

>>17342363

Both. He lies saying they'd die. They didn't. He then threw a tantrum and then went out of his way to make sure they died eventually.

>>17342425
This is untrue

>>17342121
>>17342432

Well you certainly have me convinced...

>>17342432
It's really not. See, the thing here is, did God have an intent to deceive? He said they'd die if they ate the fruit, and Genesis clearly states what Eve thought that meant, that literally the fruit was lethal, like poison.

Now, some Christians try to make all these spurious and semantic arguments about what God "REALLY" meant, but here's the only thing that's important in determining whether God lied or not and that's, "did he know what Eve would think he meant?" Of course he knew, he's God. So he worded things in such a way that he knew Eve would misunderstand. that's intent to deceive. God lied. Case closed.

(Or, alternatively, God at that time wasn't anywhere close to infallible or all knowing, which is actually the better explanation.)

>>17342425
He never said eating the fruit would kill them. He said if you eat the fruit you will die.

They ate the fruit. They later died.

Ate fruit. Died.

Exactly as God said

>>17342149
You are supposed to have the free will to get the fuck out of a place where your God is not welcome.

>>17342498

>>17342497

>if you drive that car, you will get eaten by a bear!
>23 years after driving the car, guy gets eaten by a bear... that was set loose on him by the other guy

Ha! Doesn't work like that, bud.

>>17342497
See, this is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. This explanation would make sense only if God were actually a schmary little rules-lawyer teenager trying to play a trick on someone. This sort of semantic word twisting isn't worthy of an actual god.

This is a common problem with people who build God in their own image. Their resulting god retains all their human flaws, pettiness, etc.

Is there an earlier version of the Genesis than the Sumerian one?

>>17342512
There's actually no word twisting going on. He stated a simple fact. You guys are twisting words by trying to make it seem like they would die instantly. There is literally no reason to think that.

>>17342511
Why are you giving me more examples that are essentially the same thing? I got your point. Repeating it over and over doesn't change anything

>>17342534

Because you clearly don't get it. The fruit didn't kill them, God just had a tantrum and cursed them to die later. He lied and tried to pretend he didn't.

>>17342545
He never said the fruit would kill them as I said here >>17342497 already.

He said if they ate the fruit they would die. Which they did...

>>17342552

Which they didn't. They didn't die when they ate the fruit. They died after God cursed them with mortality.

Again, because you don't get it, picking your nose didn't kill you if you died from being shot decades later.

>>17342529
No, that phrase means instantly or near instantly, not that, "you'll die decades later." So what you're trying to argue now is that God is an incompetent who doesn't comprehend how people will interpret words.

>>17342560
And, again, he's trying to paint a picture of God as either this sneering little prick that says something he knows will be misinterpreted then blames everyone else for falling for it, or an alien bumbler who can't figure out how his words will be interpreted.

That's you adding the word "instantly" that wasn't there. You're twisting what was said.

>>17342577
Except God had already said be fruitful and multiply

>>17342589
Auto correction -> naivity

>>17342593
That's not twisting anything. The English phrase, "If you do this, you will die," means that the action will have an immediate impact which will result in your death. If you're not aware of this then you're too ignorant of the language to continue this discussion.

>>17342601
If you get terminal cancer you will die

Am I right?

>>17342604
Look at how far you're trying to run around this thing to make it work. That alone should clue you in to the fact that you're position's fucked up. "If I get DEATH something I'll DEATH." Yeah. Wanna know something else about "terminal" cancer? Once it's declared "terminal" it means you're going to die pretty fucking soon.

No one ever says, "you've got terminal cancer, you'll die sometime in the next 40 years."

If your argument relies on god not being able to speak words good then it's fucked or your god's stupid. That's all there is to it.

>>17342577

>>17342616

Well thank goodness we have you around to clear that all up for us. And to think all of the people who have pondered on this throughout the years only needed to ask you for the answer!!

Thank you, you truly are the man with all the answers

>>17342637
You know, it's interesting all the ways you're dishonest. Here's a good example.

Here you paint this as cut and dry, impossible to misinterpret : >>17342529
>You guys are twisting words by trying to make it seem like they would die instantly. There is literally no reason to think that.
Literally, you say, "no reason to think that."

And yet here you admit that there is reason to think that, so much reason that people have been thinking about it, "throughout the years."
>>17342637
>And to think all of the people who have pondered on this throughout the years only needed to ask you for the answer!!

So you're contradicting yourself. But sadly, you're also not showing any problems in my argument, you're just angrily saying that somehow I'm not allowed to be right because of all that throughout the years pondering, which is a fallacy and dishonest as well.

The word play you invent to excuse God is something a petty human would do, not a God of any caliber. A God would know how to phrase the language as to avoid any ambiguity or misunderstanding unless that God wanted there to be misunderstanding. And yeah, that's all there is to it. If there's more, like any actual rational reason that's incorrect, then provide it. Hint, trying to claim those words don't necessarily mean what they very clearly mean won't do it, neither will appealing to the fact that some, like you, refuse to deal with the obvious. You're gonna need a rational position there, buddy, not an emotional one.

It's called sarcasm you silly goose.

It's obvious you'll never admit you're projecting meaning on the words so there's no reason to continue talking to you. You try and use petty cleverness to cut up and put together God's words in whatever way you like as you use big boy words like fallacy to try and sound smart and blindly insult people and the Most High.

They died spiritually instantly.
They lived 900 years and died in the flesh.

You're ignorant. (That one is for free)

>>17342851
This still relies on God being a prick who intentionally avoided telling the truth. Otherwise God would have explained that.

Face it, God lied. He intentionally misled people, knowing they would misunderstand. He withheld information, knowing they wouldn't know it unless he explained it. God misled. God lied.

It's really bizarre how when people like you try to justify what you don't understand about the Bible, you end up making God out to be horrible or idiotic. Well, I say bizarre, it's actually not hard to figure out since in your religion, God is just a manifestation of your ego, but still, you know what I mean. It's weird that the human psyche can produce people as spuriously ridiculous as you are.

Classic antichrist spirit.

>>17342879
This is a perfect example of religion as expressed by a person who has never emotionally matured. Their religious text has a character say a thing that doesn't happen. So they add to the text, (a text they'll argue is perfect and literal in every way,) words and ideas that aren't in the text, and still don't justify or solve the problem. Then they'll call you a supernatural evil entity for pointing this out.

That's how children behave, not adults.

Let's see if repeating it with a bit more detail will work.

God: The day you eat of the tree, you will die.

Humans: Eat of the tree, die spiritually, introducing sin and death into the entire creation.

You: HURR DURR GOD LIED, THEY DIDN'T DIE.

You're special.

>>17342914
This is what Christianity today is represented by. This hateful, dishonest person spewing Bible fan fiction. This person is trying to claim that by shouting HURR DURR over and over again, they're an enlightened, good human being in touch with an almighty divine being of pure goodness.

That is sheer ego screaming out. POTMH is literally just an angry little kid yelling, "Look at me!" over and over.

This is a genuine mental disease, for someone like him to act like that and still, in his mind, consider himself to be the "good" guy.

>>17342923
>Implying one person represents a whole religion

in the text, humans didnt introduce death, god did. he committed the first murder, killing an animal to make clothing for Adam and Eve.

if there was no concept of sin before the consumption of the fruit, then how did Lucifer, the Morning-Star, fall from grace? he lied to Adam and Eve. sin.

did god know about it? according to the bible, yes. god created everything. god knows everything that has happened and is going to happen. he created humanity to watch them fall, and to spend eternity kissing his ass so that they don't end up in hell.

also, if we're breaking down correct translations, the correct translation of the text states that the 'rib' that eve was made from is actually the penile bone. which is why humans are the only mammal without a bone in the penis.

>>17342939
What argument? The argument is this : To be honest, to not mislead, God had to say what he meant and allow no room for misunderstanding, something that should be easy for a god. In addition, the whole, "died spiritually" thing is Bible fan fiction. It doesn't appear in Genesis, it's invented to ignore that situation in Genesis.

The thing is that most Christians, indeed most Jewish people, accept the story that God misled Adam and Eve. It's not actually especially debated among the majority of either religion. God can lie and mislead, he does it on more than one occasion. It's, "Noah's Ark was for really real," style children trying to pretend the whole thing is fundamentalist literal truth, a fringe minority to be sure, that make up these silly arguments.

Most people believe that the Genesis story depicts God as misleading Adam and Eve, both inside and outside of Christianity. POTMH acting like a vile little prick, attacking people, behaving like a clod and making crap up aren't going to convince anyone of anything but that he's an asshole and that Christians are assholes.

>>17342955
>Proceeds to be an asshole while calling others assholes

God said they would die if they ate the fruit.
They died
Period.

>>17342874
Dude, God did not painted the picture.
You know what the truth about the truth is?
It destroys world's!

>>17342967
No, they didn't. You're just ignoring everything being discussed.

When you say, "If you commit this action, you'll die," that means one thing. It means that the thing will have a direct affect that will cause your physical body to quickly expire.

If you want to mean something else like, "you'll die SPIRITUALLY" then you have to say those words, because that's a different meaning, so you need a different sentence.

Period.

Now, do you have an argument or are you just going to keep piling onto the impression that too many Christians can't think rationally at all?

>>17342972
Isn't that just like the truth?!

>>17342980
So basically, your assumption and ignorance rules your life.

Because God said they would die, in your mind, He had to mean they would immediately die in the flesh and because they only died in the spirit and their flesh started to decay right at that moment, they didn't die according to the way you want them to have died for it to be "true".

Kek. You're very special, friend.

>>17342987
Again, this is just POTMH acting as an insecure child insulting people and behaving irrationally because others won't believe in their egocentric version of god.

Again, it's worth pointing out that most humans don't believe in POTMH's idea of God, including most Christians.

>>17342980

Amen. Trips.

Guys, face it!
You are all Christians! Everyone believes in different things, but any of you tries to save the other one!
That is in my opinion the true spirit of Christianity! You are all taking about the same out of a different perspective.
The Internet connects different world's together.
Stop fighting about a few old misinterpreted words.
Why not start finding the dots and build a place where everyone fits in.
You don't need the approval of a higher instance to do such a work. If you need one, I give it to you hereby.
And I forgive you all your sins hereby, if this could motivate you.
You all do a great work, I'm very proud of you all!

>>17343006
This is what Jesus thinks about uniting everyone.

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Truth is abundant, truth is easily available, truth is the hardest thing to convince people to believe.

>>17342994
>I wasn't talking about spiritually anyway
The conversation you interjected yourself into focuses on the word specifically, so if you're not talking about it then you're not relevant to the conversation. Which you, frankly, weren't so it's redundant evidence.

>>17343000
Universal truth has never been measured at all. The closest humanity's come, to date, is the axioms of formal reasoning, basically that there is no such thing as a manifest paradox. And that only has an absolute inductive precedent, it's certainly not established universal truth!

>>17343014
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.

Read that carefully. God clearly is telling you, they will surely die.

If you jump off a bridge, you will die. Does that mean as soon as you jump off the bridge you die? No, it takes a second or two to hit the ground.

Adam and Eve's genetics were perfect, they began to die the moment they ate of the fruit.

You want a burger?

>>17343011
I was talking to you ealier about the simple fact that they died. I'm allowed to continue the conversation whenever the fuck I want. Where the fuck do you get off telling me I can't?

If anything Prince interjected which is fine because this is an OPEN FORUM. It's not your private Christian bashing club

>>17343014
...Exactly

>>17342980

He who has the Spirit, has life.

He who has not the Spirit, has not life.

Adam and Eve lost the Spirit the instant they sinned.

They were made to live forever, and they became mortal.

They were made to live with God, and they became separated from God.

You are an evil person. I hope you get help.

>>17342955
>God can lie and mislead

Your god can, because he is the father of lies.

>>17343025
If they were made to be immortal then what was the fruit of life doing lingering around there? This is, again, Bible fan fiction. This is something you made up, or recited from someone else making it up.

>>17343014

The truth is that you are dead. You were born dead, and have remained dead. You have no life in you.

Because you are physically alive, you are unaware that you are dead. Your own body deceives you.

>>17343023
>If anything Prince interjected which is fine because this is an OPEN FORUM. It's not your private Christian bashing club
We're done. You're just yelling random accusations now. Disagree with someone like you and you start screaming, "Christian basher!" Another sad example of someone claiming to be Christian that does nothing but lie and slander.

>>17343030

To give them a choice to believe God, and obey God, or believe the devil, and obey the devil.

Agency is useless without options.

And like you, they chose to disbelieve God, and believe the devil.

>>17343030
Let's think logically for a second, it's hard but let's try.

1. You will die the day you eat the fruit.
2. A short while later, the author says they ate of the fruit but were still breathing.

Is it more likely that; A, the Bible is a complete scam, the most sold book in the world, most banned book in the world, and it's just fiction.

Or B, you're wrong.

Another interesting thread destroyed by people screaming, "believe exactly what I say or you're evil and you're satan and you're a Christian hater!"

What's important to remember is that those people are not in any way Christians beyond belonging to a cultural club. They just hate their fellow humans. So no, no one is bashing "Christians." These people are just bad people, liars and haters with no interest in Jesus or God beyond as an excuse to lie and hate.

>>17343045

Yeah, me too. But hey, you know what Hebrews says:

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

God bless.

I enjoy these threads. What no one enjoys are the fake /x/ christians like Prince. The liars, the accusers, the people who can't discuss these ideas but can only keep screaming that everyone has to believe what they believe or they're evil.

Some of you are trolls. Some are just idiots and assholes. Most of /x/ doesn't like you and there are regular petitions to get you banned.

But for me the worst is the dishonesty. If you were to try to have an honest, interested and informed discussion about topics Christian, I'd be all for it. But that would require you to stop lying that everyone that doesn't agree with you hates Christians, which you can't even do here. The post I'm responding to is you doing that.

Let's face it, /x/ Christians are shitty, dishonest people. That's been abundantly clear for the past several days. And I've been around long enough to know this cycle by heart. you're going to get more and more belligerent, you're going to spam more and more threads with how everyone has to believe in your stupid version of Jesus, eventually the mods will come in and ban one or two of you, you'll all shut up for a couple of weeks, reset.

You're children.

>I don't hate Christians
>Mocks and insults Christians

>>17343068
The day Christians are banned here, is the day the light goes out of /x/. And your souls will starve for truth, so much so that eventually you will start consuming anything.

We are not here because we are loved, admired, or any other nonsense reason. We are here because God commands us to share the truth.

And there is no "kinda right" in Christianity. Either you know the truth or you don't. Either you're saved or you're not.

There are no half saved people or people with half truths in Christianity. it's a lie or it's not.

Maranatha.

now you're claiming that by pointing out that you're dishonest, that somehow means everyone else is dishonest too. Another lie. You're that asshole I don't like to talk to, aren't you? The one that never stops lying.

Prince is mocking and insulting a human. By your argument that means he hates all humans. But you know your argument is bullshit. You're a liar.

So when I'm pointing out that you're a liar, am I "hating Christians?" No. I'm merely pointing out that you're a liar. And you are.

If you lie just one time, you're going to burn in hell. All have sinned. God's standard is perfection, nobody is perfect. Thus God Himself had to come down and die for all our sins and when you trust He did that for you, you get His perfection imputed unto you.

Again : the fruit is SEX the knowledge about the pleasures of the body.
When you have your first orgasm you die in a sense, because this sensation overwhelms the feeling of oneness. OK, that's for the orthodox ones, maybe there will be in the future an 900 year old virgin walking on the earth.
This is for the liberal : the problem with pleasure and the orgasm in particular is, that's this sensation is extremely strong. Metaphorical and maybe literally the orgasm is so intense that it could be like a big bang and creating a small universe called mind, I like it to refer as the bubble. Our consciousness slips into this bubble and you get disconnected from the oneness.

For the spiritists : oneness is so extremely loud and subtle intense because it's everything, like all the noise on earth could be heard at the same time, I call it intuition and the intuition is located two fingers under the belly button. Every child is born this way in the pure state of oneness. As soon the sexuality kicks in, the snake appears, the snake is the hormones but also an energy referred to kundalini (India). That's why the fruit of knowledge is golden. The feeling of oneness is very intense, that's why the kids have so much power. After the first sexual encounter, the feeling of oneness will be over thrown by the singular sensation of pleasure. The individual sensation of pleasure becomes dominant and the feeling of oneness get suppressed and becomes a silver lining at the horizon - intuition. Anyone can reconnect.
I hope this is more elaborate this time, but I will evolve and try it again and again.
