@Henry

If you knew him, you’d know he can make visible that which is invisible, meaning create that which doesn’t exist. You need to hear real supernatural stories of unexplainable provision, guidance, and protection with those people who had faith in him.

There is coming a day when he will make all things new! Come Lord Jesus!

No wonder humanity is so wasteful of its resources. If we are created in his image, and he created billions of light years of space just so we could live on one planet all alone, he is certainly not very conservative of resources either.

God made wise that which is foolish to shame the wise! First, there is no proof that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago. If you want to believe the fairytale you learned in school, go ahead. Second, you don’t need a phd to know this; you need logic and revelation from the Creator, not creation. Third, no one who knows God came to know him through their parents. Each person is saved through direct contact with the Spirit of Jesus Christ by believing. My parents are believers and I don’t doubt they prayed for me. Still, I made a conscience choice to follow and believe Jesus. I know they had an effect through prayer, but they did not force me or go against my will.

Please read the entire comment section. It will save you unnecessary typing about that which has already been debunked. Also, if my world view conflicts with yours, then state your world view, where you derive it from, how you account for that which is invisible and intangible, and why is my world view wrong.

You gentlemen seem to be very adamant about what you believe. You also show clearly that you know nothing of the Bible of which is filled with facts, evidence and pages and pages of prophecy that has come to pass.

As for Faith, that is what I follow, not religion. Don’t tell me what I can an can’t say.

While I don’t know all there is to know about Dinosaurs as you gentlemen seem to, I do know just a bit more about the Bible which you cast off like garbage. This is a book that has withstood the test of time.

I am not going to make any ridiculous or uneducated claims (although I have no idea what that involves) but wouldn’t it be only fair if you gentlemen did the same?

To condescend those who don’t prescribe to your beliefs is uncalled for.

According to my Faith, God is the only one who is perfect. If he designed us to be perfect then we wouldn’t need Him.

There’s a great deal I don’t know in life but if you really think about it, what you believe is just as absurd sounding as what I believe.

Was all of this just random?

I’ll stay with my God and His Word and while I’d be happy to give you the good news, I’m not interested in proving anything when there are so many that just want to learn about God.

Finally, you both seem so worked up and angry. What reason do you have to be angry? It’s not healthy to be all wound up like that.

Some of the comments on here bewilder me. I feel sorry for many of you, trying to claim that dinsaurs and humans coexisted. Unless any of you have Phds in Palentology and Geology then you cant really make such claims. Its just beyond belief that people buy into such utter garbage. By all rights, pray to god, go to church, whatever. But dont be brainwashed by what others, most likely paresnts, have hammered into your head since birth, i understand that mentally going against something you have believed all your life seems difficult, but please, your logic and common sense. Oh and by the way, if there really was an almight infallible perfect god, then why would he create somthing as imperfect as us violent, moody and destructive humans?

Im all for people to have a right to practice their religion, i my self being brought up a catholic, but people that make rediculous and uneducated claims that dinosaurs and man lived at the same time are just downright ignorant of reality. EVIDENCE/PROOF exist which shows that dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago and that humans have only come into existance in the last 200,000 years. We know this as fact because it has been proven beyond doubt. I hate when people take the bible and use it to try and deny reality. Tangible facts and evidence vs a 2,000 year old book that has no tangle facts and evidence ? use your common sense, please.

Think about it, rationally, a book written 2000 years ago, how do you know that whats in it is correct ? dont say faith or you know it in your heart. You cant use faith and personal feelings to defy logic and reality, well you can if you really want to, as many on here are doing, but it wont change the way things really happened, Will it now ?

@ken

No asteroid ever wiped out the dinosaurs from the earth. Dinosaurs lived with man. Natural disasters ravage the earth because man sinned and corrupted the natural order. Did you know that every animal was a vegetarian before the fall?

God isn’t OK with what is happening on earth. He(God the Father) sent a Savior(God the son) so that those who believed in his name and accept him as LORD will have a hope that God will restore and make perfect what we humans destroyed and corrupted. It’s our fault, but we now trust that he will make all things new.

Earth came about just like it says in the Bible. Believe what you want, but it’s your belief. You believe in what man says, even though man wasn’t there to see it. I believe what God says, even though I wasn’t there to see it. Science explains what it tests and sees. Since science didn’t see the universe made/created, science doesn’t tell you anything. Don’t confuse science with belief.

Anonymous,

If God created planet earth for the sole purpose of housing His remarkable creations, they why did he allow the astroid to wipe out the dinosaurs? Why is he allowing hurricanes and earthquakes to kill people? It’s like the owner of a museum being OK with people vandalizing the priceless displays.

And to say that earth came before the sun and other stars does not comply with science. Read Astronomy books for the correct answer concerning the formation of the solar system.

Anna, the Bible teaches explicitly that the only things God created to be intelligent are Angels, Humans, and Animals. God created the Earth before the rest of the universe, specifically to house his creations. So if you look at it from that perspective, then the existence of intelligent life from anywhere other than earth is contradictory to God’s Word.
