hmm, yes, well, i wouldn't take away either, and how would i know that this scholar found an older version of the manuscripts. it's in my bible and there it stays, i'm sick of hearing of omitted verses when the bible it's self exclaims that it is perfect as is. i hear others say the manuscripts were too ripped up to read so they just rewrote them, i also heard that certain versions like the niv omit verses, i also heard the kjv doesn't really have the best translation, i hear it often and if all this is true why do we even read the bible.

I'm sorry for upsetting you. It was not my intention to do that. This thread on Genesis has been a good one and I have learned a lot. Please do not stop reading the Bible. It is the Word of God and in this book we can find the path that will lead us back to our Heavenly Father and eternal life with Him and His Son Jesus Christ. All versions preach of God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ and their power to save men in their Kingdom and so all versions, although not quite the same as each other are worth reading for the knowledge they bring.

Keep smiling and keep praying and keep posting good and interesting information. I appreciate it as I read and am filled with the knowledge of God. So Thanks you and peace be with you always.

You are right, there is a lot to learn. Is it not the most exciting thing to learn about God and His relationship with man? I marvel at the scriptures and especially Genesis. I think it has the most thought-provoking scriptures of all the Bible, I just love to read and ponder and pray about Genesis.
I love to discuss it with other Christians, even though sometimes I don't think the same way, I hope I can express an opinion without malice towards anyone.

Thanks for the discussion. God be with us all in our quest for knowledge.

Since man's body is made of flesh and bone and spirit, and it is in the likeness of God, then God's body is a body of flesh and bone and spirit. The prototype of man's body is God's body. This truely is not a metaphore. It is the unveiling of God himself. Genesis 1:26 is the most important scripture in the Bible because God reveals to us in no uncertain terms what He looks like and is made of. Down through the centuries, somehow the Israelites completely lost this concept and the Greek philosophers created a God in their metaphysical, mystical image and so God sent His Son to Earth, and one of the most important things that Jesus did was reveal what the Father really looks like and what He is really made of again.

He is sitting on the right hand of God who also has an immortal, glorious, body of flesh and bone and spirit. Like Father, like Son.

God the Father has a body of flesh and bone?

are there now Two Gods with flesh and bones seated in heaven?

or is Jesus not God?

is Jesus a created entity?

God is in the universe, God created it, He can be in it, everywhere in it, how so. By 'moving,' God was moving over time and space and nothingness when there was only He in existence, only He :)

I love the word 'moving,' it just flows out with explanation of how great is God, my God !


In the beginning, God.....


I love this, too, just common sense, God is never a 'was,' God IS , and , there you can understand 'I AM' a little more too, God bless ya, Christ peeps, in your letting He who made you teach you how great His willingness is to put us at the CENTER of His universe, every one of us, wow, what a thought is that ! Transcends, doesn't it :)
