I wonder.
Some of you have missed the main point of authorship of the bible. The christian believes that It was god that authored the bible, by divine inspiration of his people. Many men, one spirit.
God operates on so many more levels then us.
Some snakes can see infrared light, this is a dimension they operate on, one that humans can't and haven't operated on until recently (infrared goggles etc.) Likewise their are dimensions etc, upon which god exists that we have no way to detect or comprehend. I dont have time to post the verses right now, but they include some of the ones posted earlier, by hangdawg. This is god's transcendence.
No person originated the claim that heaven and earth existed before, the bible, inspired by God makes this fact KNOWN. (2peter 3:8)
How does this next verse NOT relate? It directly takes a concept of time and makes a definition, or rather an analogy to God's version of time. It tells us in our "immanent" terms, of god's "transcendence"
(2 peter 3:8)
Understanding is one of the most difficult things in christianity. Sometimes pride, pride in ones intelligence, thinking one can figure everything out, will blind us, when all we need is some faith. Hence blind faith. the incomprehensible nature of god is a major milestone of the christian life, and without accepting there is a god, you cannot except that he is incomprehensible. I believe you all do acknowledge god, you just refuse him.
ill rebuttal the rest of your rebuttals later,
, when i get some time, till then, thanks,
