No. I did not take it out of context. God has made himself known through creation as you see it now or yesterday or tomorrow. Does not india,china, or africa has a sky with birds? Do they not have oceans that are held within their realm? Do they not have all kinds of amazing wonders that they ask themselves in their minds and God hears them?
THAT IS WHAT THAT SCRIPTURE IS SAYING.
I think maybe you are pretending to be blind. Why do you think there are other religions like Hinduism and Islam? Oh so in their utter ignorance of Christ besides already what they believe about their own Gods, you are asking them to see the birds of the sky and the oceans and say, "Lord Jesus you did this!"? Seriously? Because that sounds completely ludicrous. They the Hindus and the Muslims have their own Gods and they worship and believe them to be as the creator of the heavens and the earth etc.

Does not God answer them so that they can understand? God is not limited to a continent or language. He is able to reach all mankind .
True God is not limited to a continent or language, but do you have any evidence from the scriptures that the hope of Christ was preached to the Hindus, Muslims and the Africans during the pre-Christ era? Or did the Israelites travel to other nations around the world preaching about Jehovah?

In the first place, you originally asked about those in the OT. I told you. God made himself known to them . They walked in faith. They were under the old covenant. Jesus is God! You simply do not understand. Dont ask if you are going to call me blind or pretending to be blind. Did I insult you? No. I answered your question.

No you didn't answer my question. While God was walking with the Israelites and with the prophets in O.T at that time, was the same thing being done in India, China and Africa and other nations all around the world? The answer is NO. You just don't want to admit to the truth.

Finally the old man has changed his mind eh :D j/k.



Ahh sorry sir, but I have a desire to go to Iraq and die there as a martyr if possible. That's my zeal. There is too much tyranny and injustice being perpetrated against women and children there. Sexual slavery in the 21st century, can you believe it?
I never did change my mind, you never tried to understand what I believe, nor what I was saying, you only assumed you already knew what I meant, and were a 180 degrees wrong.

Only if they reject the light of evidence for GOD the Creator, even if that light is but a blossom on a pear tree.
Oh sorry I misunderstood you then. Awesome stuff full of hope. While God was walking with the Israelites and with the prophets in O.T at that time, was the same thing being done in India, China and Africa and other nations all around the world? The answer is NO.

Your position still holds that all those people who did not come to know Christ, or even unlike a Jew, shall be tormented for all eternity in Hell. Your words of heavenly wisdom and hope have been reinstated. Congratulations!

Interesting that you mentioned. The only difference between us and animals is we have a spirit and they do not. But, both animals and humans have souls/personality(s) and physical bodies. So they defecate and urinate and we defecate and urinate. Besides humans, even animals have testosterone and estrogen.

Natural man has all the aggressive, crafty and evil qualities that surpasses us beyond all other beasts. Natural man is simply a beast, with a spirit inside him. So, we know that the carnal/natural mind is not in the image of God/Christ as it operates in enmity to God. [Romans 8:7]

And also the Bible says, "so that you maybe conformed into the image of his Son?" [Romans 8:29]
So whose image were you/your-natural-side was in to begin with before, due to that the conversion to the image of His son deems necessary? Wanna take a guess? :)
didn't say that ... can you read?

Hmm, not sure if you can read.

I quoted you as per below:

Mitspa; said:
yes the body will go back to dust...but that has nothing to do with the soul of a man verses a animal .. You seem like troll to me.
And then I added more on the animal side of our carnal/nature as per below, and yes those were my keystrokes. I never mentioned that you said it. What you said, I already quoted above clearly. Thank you for taking the time to read.

The people in India, China, Egypt and other places during the Old Testament times did know about God, but they all had rejected God for their gods. This is why the Son of God the "I AM" walked with the Israelite's only.

All the Nations during the O.T. times knew about God. They had no excuse for rejecting Him. This is why God chose the Israelite's instead of them.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 (ESV)
[SUP]9 [/SUP] What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.

Joshua 24:14-15 (ESV)
[SUP]14 [/SUP] “Now therefore fear the LORD and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness. Put away the gods that your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD.
[SUP]15 [/SUP] And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the LORD, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

Matthew 6:7 (HCSB)
[SUP]7 [/SUP] When you pray, don’t babble like the idolaters, since they imagine they’ll be heard for their many words.

Now your choosing to name countries of KNOWN Idolaters, even when Jesus walked the earth, is not a fair comparison, try this one:

QOUTE: Wikepedia

The Great Spirit, called Wakan Tanka among the Sioux, and Gitche Manitou in Algonquian, is a conception of universal spiritual force, or supreme being prevalent among some Native American and First Nation cultures. According to Lakota activist Russell Means a better translation of Wakan Tanka is the Great Mystery.(Standard Lakota Orthography: Wakȟáŋ Tȟáŋka) is the term for "the sacred" or "the divine".

[SUP]QUOTE: Wakan Tanka

[/SUP]Wakan Tanka is the Sioux name for the Great Spirit or Great Mystery. Wakan Tanka is thought of the creator of the world or universe; believed to be the All-Providing One. This Spirit is paid reverence as providing for the needs of everyone. This reverence is displayed when the people honor the four directions, the Sun, Mother Earth, and their fellow man because these are Wakan Tanka's creation; when honoring them, people honor the spirit of Wakan Tanka which resides within each of them. The American Native does not attempt to describe this Great Power that Created All because "it is a Mystery," they advise, "leave it alone; no one describe such a vast mystery."

NOW, how come they believed that Centuries BEFORE the Europeans and other nations started to immigrate here?........................................................................................................................................................................................
Easy only 8 people got off Noah's ARK, and they are descendants of those few who chose to retain the FAITH of NOAH, while others CHOSE to Reject it. Their are a few other North American Tribes that also chose to believe in Thee Great Spirit the Creator.

Yeah, that's true as it is written in the scripture that 'Ken Allan' was there to witness their rejection :p

You are basically saying with no proof that all nations rejected God with the exception of Israel, why? Because God chose to only reveal himself to them. Sadly, those other nations did not even get a chance to witness God or even get a chance to acknowledge his power and omnipotence like that of what wonders God performed when walking with Isrealites.

Okay.

But, here is another article written by one of your own fellow American brothers regarding the issue that we were discussing.

Were people saved before Christ

You do know all those other nations came from Cain who walked with God and knew God was real?

So how can you say these nations knew nothing about God? Or could it be because of your Pride, you have declared God unrighteous?

Who are you to say other nations did not know God? Where you there? No. Its your Pride that declares other nations did not have a chance to know God.

Its so sad to see False Christians teaching what they want to believe instead of accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

Now we know organicbeast that you do not have the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Why do you hate God so much that you are willing to call Him a liar?

You did no background check on TOM BROWN did you.

You refer me to a Word of Life False Prophet, and expect me to give credence to what is wrote.

Some of mainline Christianity even calls him a HERETIC.

Tom Brown's Heresies EXPOSED!
Oh wow, I didn't know all that about Tom Brown to be honest. I just googled it and found his article as the first one.

Thanks for letting me know.

Ken, you and I both know that Indian culture is 5000 years old. The Indians/Hindus believed in all sorts of Gods etc. Even the Egyptians had their own Gods. Not sure how old Hinduism is compared to Judaism., but certainly one of the oldest religions.

The point I am trying to make is: Did the God of Israelites who walked and performed all sorts of wonders and signs through & with the Israelites, was the same thing done in other nations around the world like India, China, and Africa?

Do you have scriptural evidence to prove the above? Also do you have any scriptural evidence to show me that India, China and Africa had the foreknowledge of Jehowah and Jesus Christ also ?

Genesis 4:16-22
[SUP]16 [/SUP]Then Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden. [SUP]17 [/SUP]And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son—Enoch. [SUP]18 [/SUP]To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael, and Mehujael begot Methushael, and Methushael begot Lamech.
[SUP]19 [/SUP]Then Lamech took for himself two wives: the name of one was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah. [SUP]20 [/SUP]And Adah bore Jabal. He was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. [SUP]21 [/SUP]His brother’s name was Jubal. He was the father of all those who play the harp and flute. [SUP]22 [/SUP]And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.

Cain is the one God used to build other nations.

Did you know Cain was from the Beginning with Adam and Eve????

The Jewish race came from Adam and eve. All others came from Cain. Or are you going to ignore this also?

Genesis 5
This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. [SUP]2 [/SUP]He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created. [SUP]3 [/SUP]And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth. [SUP]4 [/SUP]After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters. [SUP]5 [/SUP]So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]Seth lived one hundred and five years, and begot Enosh. [SUP]7 [/SUP]After he begot Enosh, Seth lived eight hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]8 [/SUP]So all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Cainan. [SUP]10 [/SUP]After he begot Cainan, Enosh lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]11 [/SUP]So all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years; and he died.

[SUP]12 [/SUP]Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Mahalalel. [SUP]13 [/SUP]After he begot Mahalalel, Cainan lived eight hundred and forty years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]14 [/SUP]So all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died.
[SUP]15 [/SUP]Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared. [SUP]16 [/SUP]After he begot Jared, Mahalalel lived eight hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]17 [/SUP]So all the days of Mahalalel were eight hundred and ninety-five years; and he died.
[SUP]18 [/SUP]Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch. [SUP]19 [/SUP]After he begot Enoch, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]20 [/SUP]So all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.
[SUP]21 [/SUP]Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah. [SUP]22 [/SUP]After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]23 [/SUP]So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. [SUP]24 [/SUP]And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.
[SUP]25 [/SUP]Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech. [SUP]26 [/SUP]After he begot Lamech, Methuselah lived seven hundred and eighty-two years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]27 [/SUP]So all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years; and he died.
[SUP]28 [/SUP]Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and had a son. [SUP]29 [/SUP]And he called his name Noah, saying, “This one will comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the Lord has cursed.” [SUP]30 [/SUP]After he begot Noah, Lamech lived five hundred and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters. [SUP]31 [/SUP]So all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years; and he died.
[SUP]32 [/SUP]And Noah was five hundred years old, and Noah begot Shem, Ham, and Japheth.


Genesis 8:20
Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

Noah DID know God.

But then knowing the Truth and accepting the Truth are two different things.

Its not about God its about you playing god. So sad.
