RE: The evolution of Adam - a conundrum
I agree that Darwinism is a religion and the Bible is meant to be read literally, except where it is clearly using another device. I can't agree that we cannot have accurate translation from Hebrew but maybe that topic is for another time. In regards to "theistic evolution," I wonder if you would agree there is a fundamental theological problem of death preceding sin. For others reading, if death preceded sin, then it is no punishment for it, and effectively guts the gospel message and the need for a savior.
Cheers.
we will get into this possibly by next week
I think your question was for @gavvet ?
But since I am here: Do we fall into the trap of *'philosophying'' the Bible rather than taking God by His word?
I have not read the term 'theistic evolution" in the Bible - nor the 'theological problem' of death preceding sin... Are these not men's inventions? Are these Godly concepts? I am in no way mean to criticize the question raised - as it exists. However, let's ask ourselves where these notions come from and who benefits from specific answers.
@gavvet: Your article brought up Genesis 5. In the next few days I am submitting a little exposé on Gen 5, as there is more to it than meets the eye. The article also touches on the need of studying His word considering the original language in which it was written.
Stay blessed.
