I Believe In Evolution and the Bible

Umm.. I think you are confusing Laws and Theories.

Gravity for instance, is a repeatable, observable, predictable Law. Whereas the the DEFINITIVE CAUSE for gravity is theoretical. Scientists can't explain why matter doesn't just fly apart. Of course Christians know the reason:[h=1]Colossians 1:17 New International Version (NIV)17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.[/h]
The exact OPPOSITE is true for evolution. You are conflating the CAUSE for evolution as fact, yet science has NEVER been able to repeat NOR observe evolution in action. Only taking END result and theorizing how this end result came to be.

BTW. Even secular, honest scientists are today moving away from evolution as they see crushing evidence of digital design in everything from the amino acids and proteins of a single strand of DNA, to the Earth itself and the innumerable factors that has placed it in the "goldie locks" zone of the universe.

Really? I did not know that.

He's not an insult to me and I have been gifted with a brain. The story he has told in his posts is an amazing testament in perseverance and determination in dramatically improving his life by allowing the power and grace of God to work through him. What's your story? It's probably a short read and definitely not a must read.

Everything that has a beginning must have a cause basis for existence. The universe has a beginning given the impossibility of infinite regression this universe exists so it has a cause and the cause maker must be bigger than itself.

Interesting to note that the long touted claim that a grey moth in England changed, evolved, into a black moth during the industrial age and the use of coal has been proven to be not scientifically sound.

Just how does the symbiotic relationship between the termite who cannot digest wood fiber acquire a bacteria which cannot live in an oxygen environment to live in its gut to digest the wood fiber so the termite can live? Which organism evolved first. The termite unable to digest wood fiber or the bacteria which cannot live in an oxygen environment? How did they evolve separately to become dependent on one another?

He declares faith in Christ! He’s not a Darwinist. He just thinks maybe God uses evolution as a creation tool. Your distain for anyone who doesn’t believe as you do is evident.

Hungry, too many Christians as well as people of the world use that verse but it is referring to hypocrisy not against utilizing righteous judgment, which a Christian can do through the word of God and in love and truth without being judgmental. If you read that whole passage that is what it is referring to, so please stop using that verse it is overly quoted and misused out of its original context. Sadly, there are people who call themselves Christians but are not, based on Waggle's posts and his attitude in said posts, he is not hateful and is a Christian. In fact what he is saying is pretty much the same as what Jesus said in the gospels. Also, if you have a problem with judgment, was it right for John the Baptist to tell Herod to stop sleeping with his brother's wife and having a romantic relationship with her? Or for Jeremiah to warn the people of Jerusalem about the coming judgment on that city by the Babylonians and their exile from it? I am sorry but you are wrong about this, please rethink your thoughts on this. He is not ignorant of that verse. Thanks. God bless.

You are in error. Read post 75. First of all I believe Wintry is incorrect about evolution. However, almost immediately he separated himself from the Darwinists and professed faith in Christ and belief in God. Whether he is incorrect about his theories regarding creation, this is not a damning offence. When Waggles calls out for “judgement and destruction of all darwinists” and declares, “there is no room in the kingdom of God for those who believe a lie” it is concerning. Christ calls us to love our enemies, not pass judgement on them. We are supposed to correct fellow believers not condemn them. Since all of us were/are sinners, we all count on the blood of Christ for reconciliation. It is not perfect understanding of scripture, and an ability to detect lies that grants us access to the Father and freedom from bondage. Waggles was passing judgements and that is exactly what that verse warns about. I was trying to open the eyes of Waggles to the fact that his demeanour was unChristlike. Even if Wintry_Rose was a Darwinist, it is still our command to love him, not insult and pass judgement. Thank you for your post. You went about correcting a brother with humility and using scripture. I still believe I was correct in my assessment and application of the verse. He was being a hypocrite.
