You can't prove there is no God because for everyone there is a god. How can this be? Simple. Everyone worships something or someone, even Atheists. It's about servitude. We all must serve something or someone, even if it's serving yourself. In that case we become our own god until we die. Atheists try so hard not to believe in God that it's like being in visible oppossed to God when it shouldn't matter.

WherEver One Ask A Quetioin . He Or She Has The Answer , Or They Are LQQKING For An Answer , Or They Are Shareing SomeThing OverStand , Your MisTake Is Your LQQking For Those Who Think Like Yourself And Accept Things WithOut Questioning Them . That's A Very Bad Mistake , When Ones Dealing With One Soul OverStand , Thats Like Saying , You Have To Wait Until You DIE To Find Out What You Have Be Taught Was A Lie Or The Truth.Now If You Willing To Take That Chance So Be It ...
P.S. Please No More Testimony = Words Of Men And Woman And Not Of The Most High = SomeThing MadeUp = Can't Never Be Prove . :jawdrop:

You got some good points. You are looking at things from a human being point of view though. I like to call it spiritual awakening when we discover God. And no I don't believe God is some " pie in the sky" or " the old man in the sky sitting on a throne in the clouds". As I've stated God is unique and transcendent meaning one of a kind or like no other. There for we don't have the capacity to understand God. For example, how does God manage to hear everyones prayers, provide everyone with what they need (not wants)keep everything in the universe in balance, etc... To know the mechanical workings of how this is done would give us equal status to God and we are so far from that it can't be measured. Also when God breathed life into man we received some of characterics such as emotion not the other way around. Man has corrupted the "God concept" by have a "God complex". We become intoxicated with the perception of the power of life and death. We willingly take on the responsibility for the care and nurture of others for the sake of companionship.ie pets, children, patients, elderly etc..This is the God in us manifesting itself. God created us to be a part of his family and his pleasure. There has always been God and there will alway be God whether we are a part of the picture or not. Peace brother.

Here The Question; Did God Start The Concept Of The Beginning ?
I'm not sure what you mean by the "Concept of the Beginning". I can only assume you're speaking of the story of creation. Well if this is the case I choose to believe Genesis 1. Your question is about "concept" though. The word "concept" means 1 A general idea derived or inferred from specific instances or occurrences. or 2 Something formed in the mind; a thought or notion. according to The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition. We see in Genesis 1 God is a God of action as he does not ponder, he has given thought and now acting. Again the word concept is key. Its is nature for man to wonder "Where did I come from" and "How did my world come into existance"? This is where "concept" comes in. Since many nation have there own interpretation of the beginning there are many concepts. The one of the oldest being the Heliopolitian Cosmogony from ancient Egypt. Another is the Enuma Elish from Sumeria. There's Genesis by Moses of the Israelites. Then you have Darwinism and the theory of evolution. The list goes on. Nevertheless in many man made concepts of creation have an active deity or in some cases deities. The real question is which story is true and how do you prove it? Not even science is 100% accurate on that question. This is why many are theories and not facts. Brother to answer your first question, I will start providing scripture to justify my personal belief. It is obvious that you are well read in scripture and don't need references all the time to know what I'm talking about. But you are not a person of assumption so I will use reference when giving my interpretation. I hope I've answer your question. If this was not what you were looking for please explain I'm interested.

No . God According To Christian Wouldn't Have A Concept Of Beginning And Ending Because Christian Declare God The Alpha And The Omega In Christianity . The Awal And The Akhir In Islam AndThe Reeshone And Akheron In Judaism . All Meaning The Beginning And The Ending . The First And The Last . And ForGodTo Be The Author Of The Concept Of . The Beginning AndEnding Would Subject Him To The The Ultimate Question Of Beginning OF WHAT ? And Why Do I Say That ? Because The Concept Of In The Beginning In Genesis Is Followed By The Statement . A Group Of Gods ( Eloheem ) Genesis 6;2 Psalm 82; 1 ; 82;6 ; John 10 ; 34 - 35.
Created The Heavens . And The Earth . The Next Question Would Be FROM WHAT ? But The Third Part Of The Staement Of Genesis Verse 2 Clears It Up When It States '' And The Earth Was Without Form AndVoid And Darkness Who Upon The Face Of The Deep '' That Means Clearly That Something Existed . But It Was As Stated Without Form And Void And Darkness Was Upon The Dace Or Surface Of The Deep . And The Spirit Of God ( Eloheem ) Moved Upon The Face Of The Waters . So This Couldn't Possibly Have Been The Very Beginning Of All Things Because Water Is A Compond Element H 2 O . Which Reveals The Existence Of At Least Eight Element ; 1. Hydrogen , 2 . Helium . 3 . Lithium , 4 . Beryllium 5 . Boron . 6 Carbon . 7 . Nitrogen And 8 . Oxygen . In Order To Have Carbon . Which In Itself Is A Substance Produced By Burning Or Deterioration . Tells Us That Not Only Did Water Exist . But A Substance Or Matter Existed . So There Is No Way One Can Declare The Statement In Genesis Chapter 1 As The Beginning Of All Creation And Of All Things .
I See Your Useing The English Dictionary , For The OverStanding Of Words Very Good Move , But If You You Get YourSelf A King Jame Version Hebrew & Greek KeyWord Study Bible . It Would Help You With The Overstanding Of What The Bible Really Saying . You Also Speak The Teaching Of < Enuma Elish from Sumeria.> Were These TEXTS Written Before The Bible ?
Another Question If I May ; If God Is The First And The Last , Who Established His Time Zone & What Was It Based Upon ?
In The Enuma Elish , Epic Of Creation , What Was The Name Of The God In This Text ?

First And Formost Egyptian Predate And Are The Parents Of All Religion Of Earth .....Dating Back Over 1000,Years We Birthed The Atlanteans AndThose Of Mu . Our Anciend Egiptian Ancestors Were TheFirst To Record Religious Doctrine, The First To Use Magic , Which Became The Root Of Religious Miracles . In Fact , They Were The First To Record , And The First To Pray . Of Which They Call Ashutat . We , TheAncient Egiptian Were The First To Set Up Ritual Ceremonies , Initation , Temples , Chapels And Lodges That Later Became Churchs , Synagogues , And Mosques . We . The Egiptians Were The First Respect Nature As A Whole And Set Up Symbolism . For Recognition For Each Living Thing . We Have Been Duplicated Perpertrated , Imitated . But Never Replicated . Many Have Borrowed From Us And Set Up Great Insitutions Preteding TO THE WORLD THAT THEY DON'T KNOW OR REMEMBER THEIR SOURCE . Jew , Christians . Muslims , Hindus , Buddhist And All Others . Are Perpetrating A Fraud And Are Guilty Of Misrepesention For The Simple Fact They Refuse To Give Due Recognition To The Source Of Their Teaching . Egipt . Not The Egipt You See Today In Northeast Africa And Not The Impersonators Who Reside There Today , But Pre - Dynastic Egipt , Which Birthed The 46 Dynasties . The Prayer Of The Ancient Egipt Is Recogized Because The Present Day Religious Establishment Have Stolen These Practices . Rituals And Ceremonies From Ancient Egipt . Even Borrowing Words From The Ancient Egiptian Language . Everyday , New Discoveries Are Confirming The Grander And Majesty Of Ancient Egipt , And The Pictures On The Wall Do Not Lie . Who The Ancient Egiptian Are And What RaceThe Ancient Egiptians Belonged To Is Apparent , Though Many HaveCome Into Egipt And Have Given The Ancient Drawing False Face Lifts And Fabricated False Mummies To Deceive The World . Of The Three ( 3 ) Original Races , The Nubains The First Race . The Mongolid . The Second Race And The Caucasoid , ARCHAEOLOGISTS HAVE PROVEN BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THAT THE OLDEST INHABITANTS OF THIS PLANET WERE THE NUBIANS AND WHAT RENDERS ONE A PURE NUBIANSIS THEIR NAPPY HAIR OR WOOLLY HAIR , NOT THE COLOROF THEIR SKIN . THEIR ROYAL CROWN IS THE SIGN OF THE FIRST RACE . THE GOD RACE . THE ONE RACE , THEONLY RACE OR LIVING BEINGS ON EARTH WITH NAPPY HAIR . WE ARE THE MOTHERS AND FATHERS OF ALL OTHERS . The Word Negroid Is From The Latin Word Negro From Negrito Meaning '' Black '' The Same As The Word Moor From Maurenos . Simply Describing The Nuwbuns Who After Being Mixed With Invaders . Became The Nubians , The Mixed Seeds As You See Today With Many Different Shades Of Skin Color And Hair Textures . But Are From The Original Black Seed Of Sudan . So As You Can See , Names Were Grafted And Changed And Even Later . The Descendants Of The Nuwbuns Inherited New Titles Such As Negro , ****** , Afro -American , African , And Many National Titles. When It All Comes Down To The Nuwbuns . The Original Egiptians , Negroid , Are The Mothers And Fathers Of CIVILIZATION ; The Root Seed Of Incarnated Divinity . Simply . The Gods That All Other Worship Yet Refuse To Respect Today . In 1998 A.D. Archaeologish Have Discovered The Earliest Known Writting . And It Came From Egipt , Not Sumer In Iraq As Previouly Mistaken They Got Their Writting From Egipt . You Will Find Hieroglyphic Tablets In Egipts But Not Sumerian Tablets In Egipt . Sumerian Culture Is Egiptian Culture . So In 1998 A.D. They Found On This Stela , A Relief Of A Tree And A Pharaoh Whose NameIs Recorded As Agrub '' Scorpion , Discussing Taxed And Other Important Govermetal And National Policies . So It Was OurAncient Egiptian Ancestors Who Gave The World Its First It Was Our Ancient Egiptian Ancestors Who Gave The World Its First And One It Greatest Achievement And Civilizations, Recording What They Did And Saw . Not To Mention All The Sports Goverment Laws , Medical Records . And The List Goes Goes On .
Its Is No Coincidence When I Tell You That In The Judaic Religion , They Too Stole Things From The Egiptian Culture . The Ten Commandments Of Leviticus 20 ; 1-19 Of The Bible Was Taken Directly Out Of The Book Of The Dead From The Declaration Of Innocence Before The Neteraat = Gods ''' Of The Tribunal Such As ''
Thou Shalt Not Kill ( Old Testament Exodus 20 ; 13 Is The Exact Same Thing As '' I Have Not Slain People '' Only In The Bible , They Take The Declaration And Turn Them Into Commandment From A So-called All - Powerful God Who Has To Create Laws . Take A LQQk At The Comparison Between The Book Of The Dead Which Existed Before The Old Testament Of The Bible .
Egiptian Declaration Of Innocence = Egiptian Book Of The Dead
1. O Wide-Strider Who CameForth From Anu ( Heliopolish ). . I Have Not Done Wrong . 2. O Fire-Embracer Who Came From Khemennu ( Hermoplis Ancient Religious City Of Middle Al Kham Associated With Tehuti ) . I Have Not Robbed
3 . O Swallower Of Shades Who Came Forth From Kemet I Have Not Slain People
4. O Terrible Of Face Who Came Forth From ( Rosetjau-name Of The Necropplis Of Giza Or Memphis , Also Passages In The Leading To The Other World ) , I Have Not Destroyed The Food Offering .
5. O Doubly Evil One Who Came Forth The Busirite Nome . I Have Not Had Intercourse With A Married Woman .
Monotheism / Christian Ten Commnandments . In Aramic / Hebrew
1. You Will Not Prostrate Yourself To Them . Nor Slave Them ; For I , A Yahuwa Eloheek Am A Jealous El . The One Visiting The Iniquity Of The Father Upon The Children Of The Third And Fourth Generation Of Them That Hate Me .
2 . You Will Not Steal .
3. You Are Not To Fight To Kill .
4 . Remember The Subbath Day To Keep It Holy
5 . You Are Not To Commit Abominations .
Just To Name A Few .
The JewAcquired Their Lifestyle From The Egipt , When They Came In Along With Their Masters , The Hyksos As Hyksos , Which Is A Greek Word Meaning '' Rulers Of The Foreign Land '' And In The Ancient Egiptian Language It Is Heka - Khasut . The Hysos Lived Under The Canaanites In The Land Of Canaan , The Cursed Seed Of The Torah , Old Testament In Genesis 9 ; 25 Also Read Leviticus Chapters 13 - 15 . The Seed Was Cursed With Leprosy Or Albinism , Who Were The Hyksos .
TheHyksos Conquered A Small Area Called Gebelein In The Delte Along TheTrade Route To Southern Plaestrine With Avaris As Its Center , Which Was In Thebes Of Upper Egypt And Reigned For A Period Of 100 Years . The Hyksos ' Stronghold Was Based In Lower Egypt . However , Sekenenre The Ruling A'aferi At The Time Initated Conflict With The Hyksos Vassals But Was Killed In Battle . His Wife Ahhotep Took Over The Kingdom . It Was Their Son A'aferti Kamose Who Eventually Conquered And Pushed Out The Hyksos From Egipt . Ahhotep , Sekenenre's Wife , Had Given Him Two Sons , Kamose AndAhmose . His Elder Son , Kamose Made The Greatest Impression Of The Kingdom . Records Of His Reign Are Recorded On Wooden Tables , The A'aferi Summoned HisCouncil And Explained The Situation To Them . It Was Far From Hopeful .
'' I know what my courage is for . There isa pharaoh at Avaris and there is another at Cush . Iam sitting like a hyphen between an Arab and Nubian . Those who dwell in the black land share their possessions with me . I cannot make make him cross at Memphis the water of Egypt ; now he is in possession of Khmunu ( Hermopolis ) . There is no one left who is not overwhelmed by the taxes of the Asiatics . I am going to meet him to cleave his belly . It is in my heart to deliver Egypt andto strike the Arabs.
A'aferti Kamose Celebrated His Victory With Two Stelae . They Are Written In The Same Way And They May Have Been Set Up Beside Each Other In The Temple Of Karnak . The Second Stela Is Still Intact A'aferti Kamose Saw Himself As The Master Of Avaris . Kamose Spent The Last Years Of His Life Preparing His Tomb . Like His Ancestors , The Pharaohs Of The 17th Dynasty . Unfortuately , Kamose Did Not Live To See The Entirety Of His Accomplishment . Kamose's Brother , A'aferti Ahmose Was The Next In Line To Keep Control Of The Theban Kingdom Where He Continued To Conquer And Push The Hyksos Out Of Egipt . A'aferti Ahmost Led The Second Attack On The Hyksos , Which Was Even More Successful Than His Brothers . The City Of Memphis Was Captured And The Theban Fleet Led By Ahmose Marched On To The City Of Avaris Which Was The Hyksos Capital Finally , The City Surrendered . Ahmose Took Over The Capital , Which He Then Extended And Decorated . The Rightful Rulers Were Back In Power And The Foreign Invaders Had Been Defeated . The Boundaries Of Egipt Had Been Redefined And The Southern Border Was Situated Deep In What Is Now Sudan Near Abu Hamid And The Northern Border Extended As Far As The Euphrates To A County Called Naharin . Egipt Rose To A ''' World Power '' The Hyksos Took With Them Egiptian Culture And Spreading It Throughout The Middle East . It Became The Foundation Of TheThree Monothestic Religions . Mosesism ( Judaism ) Christism ( Christianity ) And Muhammadism ( Islaam ) That Plague The World Today . Now As ForThe 46 Dynasties , There Is No Coincidence That The 46 Dynasties Relate To The 46 Chromosomes And Is Referring To The Mixing Of The Races . Mixing Our Seed With The Cursed Seed Of Canaan Is Why We Are No Longer Pure , But Are Now Nubians This Mixing Opened The Gate AndInvasions Of Europeans Such As The Armenians , Who Became Gypsies . Which Is One Of The Reasons Why The Land Was Called Egipt . Other Invaders Included The Turks Who Are Europears. The French Who Are Europeans . The Greeks Who Are Europeans . Along With Other Europeans All From The 11 Sons Of The Cursed Seed Of Canaan . Who Were Either Allowed To Settle There Or They Had Conquered It . TThese Are The Tribes Of Cursed Seed Of Canaan ( Genesis10 ; 15 ) Sidonites / Hethites / Jebusites / Amorites / Girgasites / Hivites / Arkites / Sinites / Arvadites / Zemarites / And The Hamathites. AsThese Different Tribes Invaded Egipt . Such As The Armenians , Ashurians Called Chaldeans Who Crossed Over From The Tigris Euphrates , Who Were Called Hebrews Or Jews In The Bible . Plagiarized Documents From The Sumerians And Phoenicians With Names And Stories Slightly Altered To Give A Nomadic Wandering Cursed Seed Race . An Identity Even To The Point Of Referring To Themselves As ''' God's Chosen '' And The God Of The Babylonians Was Baal , Who Was None Other Than Narmer ( Menes ) , Enoch , Adafa And Idriys Whom They Worshipped . So Their Book Referred To These Invading Tribes As The Chaldeans, Mitsrayimnites , Ki****es, Syrians, Phoenicians , And Eventually The Greeks ( Idonians ) And TheRoman Creating Your Hyksos , The 46 Dynasties , For 46 Chromosomes Referring To The Mixed Races . Different Names Were Applied To Our Original Egiptian Ancestors To Suit TheirCultures Like Kemet , Khamites From Ham Of Their Bibles In Genesis 6 ;10 The Father Of Canaan Ham Was The Son Of Noah Genesis6 ; 9 , But Noah Was Really Utnafishtim Of The Gilgamesh Epics . Again , Another History Or Story Stolen That Was Taught To You . Many ThingsWere Picked Up From The Original Tama-reyeaa / EgiptiansAnd Incorporated Into Their Different Cultures , Festivities , And Religions . In Judaism Christianity And Islaam . But It All Came From Egipt Just As The Sercet Societies As Freemasons / Shriner / Rosicrucians / Knight Of Columbus / Astars And Otrhers. All Got Their Teachings From Egiptian . George Washington . The Socalled First President Who Was A Freemason . Where Did The Freemason Get ThisFrom ? Of Course . Us The Ancient Egiptians. EVERYTHING LEADS BACK TO ANCIENT EGIPT AND THERE IS NO DENYING IT . THE PICTURES ON THE WALLS OF EGIPT / Hieroglyphic Meaning '' Sacred Carving '' Of Egipt '' That Predates And Existed Prior To The Birth Of Moses / Yashua / Jesus /Muhammad / And Even Before Adam And Abraham . Moses Of TheOld Testament / One Of TheThree Yashua / JesusOf The NewTestament / Muhammad Of The Last Testament , The Quraan . And I Could Go On And On About Our True Culture '/ History :geek:

The Prayer Of The Ancient Egipt Is Recogized Because The Present Day Religious Establishment Have Stolen These Practices . Rituals And Ceremonies From Ancient Egipt . Even Borrowing Words From The Ancient Egiptian Language . Everyday , New Discoveries Are Confirming The Grander And Majesty Of Ancient Egipt , And The Pictures On The Wall Do Not Lie . Who The Ancient Egiptian Are And What RaceThe Ancient Egiptians Belonged To Is Apparent , Though Many HaveCome Into Egipt And Have Given The Ancient Drawing False Face Lifts And Fabricated False Mummies To Deceive The World . Of The Three ( 3 ) Original Races , The Nubains The First Race . The Mongolid . The Second Race And The Caucasoid , ARCHAEOLOGISTS HAVE PROVEN BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THAT THE OLDEST INHABITANTS OF THIS PLANET WERE THE NUBIANS AND WHAT RENDERS ONE A PURE NUBIANSIS THEIR NAPPY HAIR OR WOOLLY HAIR , NOT THE COLOROF THEIR SKIN . THEIR ROYAL CROWN IS THE SIGN OF THE FIRST RACE . THE GOD RACE . THE ONE RACE , THEONLY RACE OR LIVING BEINGS ON EARTH WITH NAPPY HAIR . WE ARE THE MOTHERS AND FATHERS OF ALL OTHERS . The Word Negroid Is From The Latin Word Negro From Negrito Meaning '' Black '' The Same As The Word Moor From Maurenos . Simply Describing The Nuwbuns Who After Being Mixed With Invaders . Became The Nubians , The Mixed Seeds As You See Today With Many Different Shades Of Skin Color And Hair Textures . But Are From The Original Black Seed Of Sudan . So As You Can See , Names Were Grafted And Changed And Even Later . The Descendants Of The Nuwbuns Inherited New Titles Such As Negro , ****** , Afro -American , African , And Many National Titles. When It All Comes Down To The Nuwbuns . The Original Egiptians , Negroid , Are The Mothers And Fathers Of CIVILIZATION ; The Root Seed Of Incarnated Divinity . Simply . The Gods That All Other Worship Yet Refuse To Respect Today . In 1998 A.D. Archaeologish Have Discovered The Earliest Known Writting . And It Came From Egipt , Not Sumer In Iraq As Previouly Mistaken They Got Their Writting From Egipt . You Will Find Hieroglyphic Tablets In Egipts But Not Sumerian Tablets In Egipt . Sumerian Culture Is Egiptian Culture . So In 1998 A.D. They Found On This Stela , A Relief Of A Tree And A Pharaoh Whose NameIs Recorded As Agrub '' Scorpion , Discussing Taxed And Other Important Govermetal And National Policies . So It Was OurAncient Egiptian Ancestors Who Gave The World Its First It Was Our Ancient Egiptian Ancestors Who Gave The World Its First And One It Greatest Achievement And Civilizations, Recording What They Did And Saw . Not To Mention All The Sports Goverment Laws , Medical Records . And The List Goes Goes On .
Its Is No Coincidence When I Tell You That In The Judaic Religion , They Too Stole Things From The Egiptian Culture . The Ten Commandments Of Leviticus 20 ; 1-19 Of The Bible Was Taken Directly Out Of The Book Of The Dead From The Declaration Of Innocence Before The Neteraat = Gods ''' Of The Tribunal Such As ''
Thou Shalt Not Kill ( Old Testament Exodus 20 ; 13 Is The Exact Same Thing As '' I Have Not Slain People '' Only In The Bible , They Take The Declaration And Turn Them Into Commandment From A So-called All - Powerful God Who Has To Create Laws . Take A LQQk At The Comparison Between The Book Of The Dead Which Existed Before The Old Testament Of The Bible .
Egiptian Declaration Of Innocence = Egiptian Book Of The Dead

Just To Name A Few .
The JewAcquired Their Lifestyle From The Egipt , When They Came In Along With Their Masters , The Hyksos As Hyksos , Which Is A Greek Word Meaning '' Rulers Of The Foreign Land '' And In The Ancient Egiptian Language It Is Heka - Khasut . The Hysos Lived Under The Canaanites In The Land Of Canaan , The Cursed Seed Of The Torah , Old Testament In Genesis 9 ; 25 Also Read Leviticus Chapters 13 - 15 . The Seed Was Cursed With Leprosy Or Albinism , Who Were The Hyksos .
TheHyksos Conquered A Small Area Called Gebelein In The Delte Along TheTrade Route To Southern Plaestrine With Avaris As Its Center , Which Was In Thebes Of Upper Egypt And Reigned For A Period Of 100 Years . The Hyksos ' Stronghold Was Based In Lower Egypt . However , Sekenenre The Ruling A'aferi At The Time Initated Conflict With The Hyksos Vassals But Was Killed In Battle . His Wife Ahhotep Took Over The Kingdom . It Was Their Son A'aferti Kamose Who Eventually Conquered And Pushed Out The Hyksos From Egipt . Ahhotep , Sekenenre's Wife , Had Given Him Two Sons , Kamose AndAhmose . His Elder Son , Kamose Made The Greatest Impression Of The Kingdom . Records Of His Reign Are Recorded On Wooden Tables , The A'aferi Summoned HisCouncil And Explained The Situation To Them . It Was Far From Hopeful .
'' I know what my courage is for . There isa pharaoh at Avaris and there is another at Cush . Iam sitting like a hyphen between an Arab and Nubian . Those who dwell in the black land share their possessions with me . I cannot make make him cross at Memphis the water of Egypt ; now he is in possession of Khmunu ( Hermopolis ) . There is no one left who is not overwhelmed by the taxes of the Asiatics . I am going to meet him to cleave his belly . It is in my heart to deliver Egypt andto strike the Arabs.
A'aferti Kamose Celebrated His Victory With Two Stelae . They Are Written In The Same Way And They May Have Been Set Up Beside Each Other In The Temple Of Karnak . The Second Stela Is Still Intact A'aferti Kamose Saw Himself As The Master Of Avaris . Kamose Spent The Last Years Of His Life Preparing His Tomb . Like His Ancestors , The Pharaohs Of The 17th Dynasty . Unfortuately , Kamose Did Not Live To See The Entirety Of His Accomplishment . Kamose's Brother , A'aferti Ahmose Was The Next In Line To Keep Control Of The Theban Kingdom Where He Continued To Conquer And Push The Hyksos Out Of Egipt . A'aferti Ahmost Led The Second Attack On The Hyksos , Which Was Even More Successful Than His Brothers . The City Of Memphis Was Captured And The Theban Fleet Led By Ahmose Marched On To The City Of Avaris Which Was The Hyksos Capital Finally , The City Surrendered . Ahmose Took Over The Capital , Which He Then Extended And Decorated . The Rightful Rulers Were Back In Power And The Foreign Invaders Had Been Defeated . The Boundaries Of Egipt Had Been Redefined And The Southern Border Was Situated Deep In What Is Now Sudan Near Abu Hamid And The Northern Border Extended As Far As The Euphrates To A County Called Naharin . Egipt Rose To A ''' World Power '' The Hyksos Took With Them Egiptian Culture And Spreading It Throughout The Middle East . It Became The Foundation Of TheThree Monothestic Religions . Mosesism ( Judaism ) Christism ( Christianity ) And Muhammadism ( Islaam ) That Plague The World Today . Now As ForThe 46 Dynasties , There Is No Coincidence That The 46 Dynasties Relate To The 46 Chromosomes And Is Referring To The Mixing Of The Races . Mixing Our Seed With The Cursed Seed Of Canaan Is Why We Are No Longer Pure , But Are Now Nubians This Mixing Opened The Gate AndInvasions Of Europeans Such As The Armenians , Who Became Gypsies . Which Is One Of The Reasons Why The Land Was Called Egipt . Other Invaders Included The Turks Who Are Europears. The French Who Are Europeans . The Greeks Who Are Europeans . Along With Other Europeans All From The 11 Sons Of The Cursed Seed Of Canaan . Who Were Either Allowed To Settle There Or They Had Conquered It . TThese Are The Tribes Of Cursed Seed Of Canaan ( Genesis10 ; 15 ) Sidonites / Hethites / Jebusites / Amorites / Girgasites / Hivites / Arkites / Sinites / Arvadites / Zemarites / And The Hamathites. AsThese Different Tribes Invaded Egipt . Such As The Armenians , Ashurians Called Chaldeans Who Crossed Over From The Tigris Euphrates , Who Were Called Hebrews Or Jews In The Bible . Plagiarized Documents From The Sumerians And Phoenicians With Names And Stories Slightly Altered To Give A Nomadic Wandering Cursed Seed Race . An Identity Even To The Point Of Referring To Themselves As ''' God's Chosen '' And The God Of The Babylonians Was Baal , Who Was None Other Than Narmer ( Menes ) , Enoch , Adafa And Idriys Whom They Worshipped . So Their Book Referred To These Invading Tribes As The Chaldeans, Mitsrayimnites , Ki****es, Syrians, Phoenicians , And Eventually The Greeks ( Idonians ) And TheRoman Creating Your Hyksos , The 46 Dynasties , For 46 Chromosomes Referring To The Mixed Races . Different Names Were Applied To Our Original Egiptian Ancestors To Suit TheirCultures Like Kemet , Khamites From Ham Of Their Bibles In Genesis 6 ;10 The Father Of Canaan Ham Was The Son Of Noah Genesis6 ; 9 , But Noah Was Really Utnafishtim Of The Gilgamesh Epics . Again , Another History Or Story Stolen That Was Taught To You . Many ThingsWere Picked Up From The Original Tama-reyeaa / EgiptiansAnd Incorporated Into Their Different Cultures , Festivities , And Religions . In Judaism Christianity And Islaam . But It All Came From Egipt Just As The Sercet Societies As Freemasons / Shriner / Rosicrucians / Knight Of Columbus / Astars And Otrhers. All Got Their Teachings From Egiptian . George Washington . The Socalled First President Who Was A Freemason . Where Did The Freemason Get ThisFrom ? Of Course . Us The Ancient Egiptians. EVERYTHING LEADS BACK TO ANCIENT EGIPT AND THERE IS NO DENYING IT . THE PICTURES ON THE WALLS OF EGIPT / Hieroglyphic Meaning '' Sacred Carving '' Of Egipt '' That Predates And Existed Prior To The Birth Of Moses / Yashua / Jesus /Muhammad / And Even Before Adam And Abraham . Moses Of TheOld Testament / One Of TheThree Yashua / JesusOf The NewTestament / Muhammad Of The Last Testament , The Quraan . And I Could Go On And On About Our True Culture '/ History :geek:
Wow impresses brother. Most of this I knew or heard before. I don't deny Ancient Egyptian Culture is the blueprint, the mold and the foundation for all of civilation. Here something that you may or may not have heard; I forget the source but archaeologist found an actual flying wooden toy bird Egyptian children fancied. The remarkable thing about this toy is it still was fully functional and it resembled the same structure and design of the U.S. military's C-130 Hercules transport plane. So we can add aerodynamics to the list of subjects Egyptians gave the world. It pisses me off when movies like "Stargate" come out discrediting our people. This movie essentially is saying that our ancestor could not have possibly had the intellengence to accomplish what they accomplished without help from "advanced extraterrestrial lifeforms". They just can give us the credit can they. Anyway brother I still follow my heart an believe what is for me is for me. I leave you with this, though our system of belief differs I admire your compassion and convention to your cause. I just hope that when you are judged that your soul is found to be lighter than a feather when you make your 42 confessions.

Radical Faith 09-03-2004, 06:48 PM No . God According To Christian Wouldn't Have A Concept Of Beginning And Ending Because Christian Declare God The Alpha And The Omega In Christianity . The Awal And The Akhir In Islam AndThe Reeshone And Akheron In Judaism . All Meaning The Beginning And The Ending . The First And The Last . And ForGodTo Be The Author Of The Concept Of . The Beginning AndEnding Would Subject Him To The The Ultimate Question Of Beginning OF WHAT ? And Why Do I Say That ? Because The Concept Of In The Beginning In Genesis Is Followed By The Statement . A Group Of Gods ( Eloheem ) Genesis 6;2 Psalm 82; 1 ; 82;6 ; John 10 ; 34 - 35.
Created The Heavens . And The Earth . The Next Question Would Be FROM WHAT ? But The Third Part Of The Staement Of Genesis Verse 2 Clears It Up When It States '' And The Earth Was Without Form AndVoid And Darkness Who Upon The Face Of The Deep '' That Means Clearly That Something Existed . But It Was As Stated Without Form And Void And Darkness Was Upon The Dace Or Surface Of The Deep . And The Spirit Of God ( Eloheem ) Moved Upon The Face Of The Waters . So This Couldn't Possibly Have Been The Very Beginning Of All Things Because Water Is A Compond Element H 2 O . Which Reveals The Existence Of At Least Eight Element ; 1. Hydrogen , 2 . Helium . 3 . Lithium , 4 . Beryllium 5 . Boron . 6 Carbon . 7 . Nitrogen And 8 . Oxygen . In Order To Have Carbon . Which In Itself Is A Substance Produced By Burning Or Deterioration . Tells Us That Not Only Did Water Exist . But A Substance Or Matter Existed . So There Is No Way One Can Declare The Statement In Genesis Chapter 1 As The Beginning Of All Creation And Of All Things .
I See Your Useing The English Dictionary , For The OverStanding Of Words Very Good Move , But If You You Get YourSelf A King Jame Version Hebrew & Greek KeyWord Study Bible . It Would Help You With The Overstanding Of What The Bible Really Saying . You Also Speak The Teaching Of < Enuma Elish from Sumeria.> Were These TEXTS Written Before The Bible ?
Another Question If I May ; If God Is The First And The Last , Who Established His Time Zone & What Was It Based Upon ?
In The Enuma Elish , Epic Of Creation , What Was The Name Of The God In This Text ?
Hotep - Ala Antuk = Peace Be Unto You
Sorry for not answering right away brother by my threads you can see I work nights and some nights I have time and some nights I don't. Yes the Enuma Elish predates the Bible. In the 7 tablet the story is mainly about two characters Marduk is the god of all gods and Tiamut the goddess of chaos. The story essentially is about their battle. Tiamut transforms into a snake and is defeated by Marduk. Marduk split her corps in half creating the sky and earth and human beings were spawned from blood and bone. Born from chaos hmmmm. How interesting. Now the more challenging question. Before we answer this question we must ask what is time and it's properties. By definition time is a nonspatial continuum in which events occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future. This is according to the The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition. Through there are numerous meanings for this word let look at this one. In the definition we see time has a begin and an end. Time is irreversible. Time is the product of our physical universe. Time to us is moments of existence. To see an understand time all one has to do is look at the night sky. Science has proven to look at luminous heavenly bodies is to literal be looking into the past. Science has proven that we are moving farther away far eachother. Stars, planets, systems and galaxies are moving away but from what? Scientists believe from what is known as the singularity where time started. This is more commonly called the "big bang theory". Question: what caused the big bang? God did. Genesis 1:1 say "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth". Notice how heaven is plural. This mean God created the universe in which the the earth is a part of. In order for God to do this God would have to exist outside the physics three dimensional universe that we live in. Jeremiah 23:23-24 says
23 Am I a God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off?
24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
Also Psalms 102:27 says
27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
These two scriptures suggest that God exists in a higher dimension outside our own, incomprehensible to the laws of physics that govern our universe. Time nor space have no barring on God. This is why God is eternal without beginning or end. So I hope this has answered your questions.

They Are Moon , And The Stars . As It States In Genesis 1 ; 16 And I Quote ; And God Made Two Great Lights ; The Greater Light To Rule The Day , And The Lesser Light To Rule The Night ; He Made The Stars Also '' , So It Is Plain To See That Time Existed Before The Creation Of Time In The Bible , And Even Genesis 4 ; 3 Adds The Word Time , When In Fact In The Hebrew , The Word Yowm Is There For Day .

Question ; Exactly Which One Person Is In The Image Of Yahuwa = God ?
Radical Faith 09-07-2004, 05:41 PM Question ; Exactly Which One Person Is In The Image Of Yahuwa = God ?
Brother once again you challenge me with excellent questions that stimulate my mind and examine my prospective. Thanks you for making me better. Now to answer your question. As alway we must examine the key word here and that is "Image". There are many definitions of the word image. All allude to the descriptive noticeable characterists of something or someone. Here's a definition: One that closely or exactly resembles another. This is the third definition of the word image according to the The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition.
Genesis 1:26
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
By this scripture we see several things happening. First God says he's going to create man in his own image. The image God is referring is not the physical image as most would believe, but the image of character and attributes. How is that so? Well after God say that he gives man authority and dominion over the creature of the earth and the plants as seen in Genesis 1:28,29. To be a care giver and sustainer. These are attributes of God, the image of God, the likeness of God. Scientifically every creature lives by the law of nature. No creature can see it's mortality. All react instinctual to the stimulus it encounters. All creatures do this except man. Men are the only beings on earth that consciencously can manipulate his environment and other beings for his own preasure or benefit. This is a God-like characteristic. Only man has advanced emotions such as compassion, mercy and sympathy. These are God-like characteristics. Also Genesis 1:27 says God create man and woman as one therefore man and women are the image of God. Here's something else to think about:
Genesis 2:7
the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
You had written in somes earlier threads about the "God within us" or "tapping the hidden power" that we all have, well the above scripture proves that statement. From a different perspective what this scripture is saying is, in every man there is a measure of God. Scientifically we are carbon based lifeform needing the elements and minerals found in the earth to sustain our physique. So science also proves that we are formed from "the dust of the earth". Back to the breath of God. God shared a part of himself without us, therefore we can say many of the anthropomorphic attributes we give God in fact given to us by God. Therefore scriptures like this one go to show you that we were on the mind of God before we existed:
Psalm 139:13-16
13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
How is this so? Well if God put part of himself in us it would be safe to say God knows himself therefore he knows us. Another thing to think about is if man have a measure of God within himself, imagine what could be accomplished if man came together with one goal in mind, united under one cause. Mountain would move and heaven would trumble. Think about all those measures of God coming together. Back to the answer to your question, all people are created in the image of God. Whether they choose to bring honor to that image is another story. Unlike yourself brother I am here to plant seeds. It is part of my faith to make disciples of men and to minister to the needs of the people. But I also I'm no mans judge nor his master. The best example of God's love is shown and not said. With that I leave you with this scripture:
Chronicles II 7:14
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
The power is truly in the masses.

The image God is referring is not the physical image as most would believe, but the image of character and attributes. How is that so? Well after God say that he gives man authority and dominion over the creature of the earth and the plants as seen in Genesis 1:28,29. To be a care giver and sustainer. These are attributes of God, the image of God, the likeness of God. Scientifically every creature lives by the law of nature. No creature can see it's mortality. All react instinctual to the stimulus it encounters. All creatures do this except man. Men are the only beings on earth that consciencously can manipulate his environment and other beings for his own preasure or benefit. This is a God-like characteristic. Only man has advanced emotions such as compassion, mercy and sympathy. These are God-like characteristics. Also Genesis 1:27 says God create man and woman as one therefore man and women are the image of God. Here's something else to think about:
Genesis 2:7
the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
You had written in somes earlier threads about the "God within us" or "tapping the hidden power" that we all have, well the above scripture proves that statement. From a different perspective what this scripture is saying is, in every man there is a measure of God. Scientifically we are carbon based lifeform needing the elements and minerals found in the earth to sustain our physique. So science also proves that we are formed from "the dust of the earth". Back to the breath of God. God shared a part of himself without us, therefore we can say many of the anthropomorphic attributes we give God in fact given to us by God. Therefore scriptures like this one go to show you that we were on the mind of God before we existed:
Psalm 139:13-16
13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
How is this so? Well if God put part of himself in us it would be safe to say God knows himself therefore he knows us. Another thing to think about is if man have a measure of God within himself, imagine what could be accomplished if man came together with one goal in mind, united under one cause. Mountain would move and heaven would trumble. Think about all those measures of God coming together. Back to the answer to your question, all people are created in the image of God. Whether they choose to bring honor to that image is another story. Unlike yourself brother I am here to plant seeds. It is part of my faith to make disciples of men and to minister to the needs of the people. But I also I'm no mans judge nor his master. The best example of God's love is shown and not said. With that I leave you with this scripture:
Chronicles II 7:14
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
The power is truly in the masses.

Tiamat Would Let Them Have Their Way With No Reistance. Finally Apsu , The Sun Begetter Of The Great Anunnaqi , Called Out And Addressed His Yahweh Ruler Of Mummu , The Planet Mercury ; O ' Mummu , Yahweh In Whom I Am Well Pleased With ! Cometh , Let Us Go To Tiamat ! So The Craft Of The Dinner Hovered Above The Surface Of The Yam , Waters .

Let Salama, Ways Of Peace Prevail Over Shakhar's Ways Of Trouble , So That We Eloheem Can Rest Peacefully . When TheInhabitors Of Tiamat Heard This , There Rulers Salama Was Furious And Shouted To Her Lover ; She Shouted Dreadfully And Was Beside Herself With Rage , But Then Suppressed The Evil In Her Belly .

Sorry it took me some long to answer you questions brotha. I have been extremely busy and I don’t want to give you a half hearted lame answer. You deserve more respect than that. I understand what you are asking me now. Well to answer your question we must ask, who were the first known human beings? First I will start scientifically. Since "fossil evidence" is not an exact science when it comes to humans we must rely on archaeologically evidence. The evidence is comprised of written language, art, tools, architecture, sciences, etc. This evidence points to Africa, so one can ascertain that the earliest known humans were African. Scientists have recently come forth with the fact that from Africans all the races of the world were formed. Let’s look at this Biblically. In Genesis 2:8-14 it says.
8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
There is much debate about the exact location of the Garden of Eden. Some scholars say it was the Arabian Peninsula extending into Iraq. According to the Book the Jubilee the Garden of Eden is the Nile Delta.
Jubilees 8:14
"And it proceeds toward the north until it approaches the garden of Eden, and toward the south thereof to the south, and from the east, and it turns to the east, and proceeds until it approaches toward the east of the hills whose name is Rafa (RA), and it descends toward the border of the outlet of the water of the river Tina(Nile)." .
If one examines the scripture one can conclude that the Garden of Eden was an expansive area of land stretching from the northeast corner of Africa well into the Middle East. Also God formed man outside the Garden of Eden and placed him there. So where did God form man? It was in Eden. There is a difference. The Garden was place "eastward" in "Eden". Then where was Eden? Eden is Africa of course. So if God created man and woman as one in his image and likeness by what is shown, Africans were the first human beings created in Gods image. The sad thing is we don't know this nor do we honor God by our behavior. Though an African was the first humans made in God image, it was that same African that fell and became corrupted with sin.
Question ; Since EveryOne Came From Adam And Eve Who , According To Christian Doctrine , Were The First Human Beings . Then Why Doesn't EveryOne LQQk Exactly Alike ?
Genesis 11:1-9
1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
The above scripture speaks of how all men were similar if not of the same race and God separated them by first changing their language then scattering them over the earth. This was done because: first man’s nature had changed and he served his flesh instead of his spirit and could be easily manipulated (Gen. 3). Secondly every man has a measure of God within himself illustrated in Gen 2:7. Because of this, God recognizes the power that men wield. God also recognizes that power could be easily corrupted. Scientifically as man began to move to different parts of the world their bodies changed to suite their new environment. Scientists call this adaptation. Biblically the bible shows that different human features can emerge from parents where the children don’t share likeness. An example of this was in Gen. 25:24-25. Here is and example of fraternal twins one being born with features unlike his parents or his brother. This sort of thing probably happened more than less. Also men would take woman outside of their tribe farther mixing the gene pool. Who are is the newest race of people on earth? The answer is the Latinos. Still Latinos are broken down also. There are Latinos where the European Spanish genes are more dominant, then there are some where the Natives of the Americas’ gene are more dominant (Aztecs, Incas, Mayans, etc.). Then there are Latinos where the African genes are more dominant. This race of people came about as a result of conquest and the slave trade. So we see many different types of people still with a measure of God. The real question is what is the image of God? As stated before the “image of God” is not a physical picture. God can not be seen by physical eyes because God is beyond our realm of complete comprehension. If we can’t get a physical view of God how does God view himself? In Exodus 3:13-14 God tells Moses:
13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
By this scripture God wants us to know that it is sufficient enough to know God exists then to physically see God. Also God sees himself as a father as in Deut 32:6. God sees himself as a mother as in Isa 66:13. God sees himself as King or Ruler or Master as in Isa 33:22. What God doesn't see his self as is a physical being. God makes clear distinction between himself and man as in Isa 55:8,9.
Exodus 20:4
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
As seen in the scripture above God does not want us to make idols or physical images to represent him. So what is God's image. God’s image is divine intellect. This is what separates human beings from animals. When God breathed life into us he gave us divine intellect or his image. When man fell we lost the image of God and became bound by the will of flesh or the physical. How is this so? Well sin is not a part of the image of God. Sin is the result of the misuse of God's image bestowed on us. God's image gives use power and if not used for the glorification of God it becomes corrupt. This corruption changes the nature of man from God-like and benevolent to rebellious and self-serving. But we can regain the image of God by denying your flesh. We will then become the sons of God once again. But know this is no easy task. I hope this answers your question. If not please explain.

What Is '' GODS '' Blood Type ?
Christian Won't Know How To Answer This One . Sine Adam Was Created In The Image And After The Likeness Of God According To Genesis 1 ; 27 , Then Ask Your Teacher , Preacher , Ministers . Deacons , Rabbis , Imaam AndOther Religious Leaders What Was God's Blood Type? They Don't Have An Answer !
Question ; Since EveryOne Came From Adam And Eve Who , According To Christian Doctrine , Were The First Human Beings . Then Why Doesn't EveryOne LQQk Exactly Alike ? When It SaysThat Eve Taken From His Rib , What Does That Mean ? The Rib Is What ? A Bone AndWhat Take Place In The Bones ? Bones Are Made Up Of Mineral - Filled Rings And Of Blood Vessels That Run Through Canals In Each Group Of Rings , And Blood Vessels Enter And Exit At Specific Points Along The Bone . The Bone In Animals Having A Back Bone Or Spinal Column / Vertebrates Is Also Involved In Regulating The Concentration For Calcium Icons In The Blood . Creation Takes Place In Bones . What Do I Mean By Creation ? Inside Of The Bones . You Have Bone Marrows Which . Is Tissue Inside Of Your Bones That Is Responsible For The ProductionOf Blood Cells . The Bone Marrow Fills The Center And Spaces At Both Ends Of The Bones Where Growth Happen . In Infants , The Marrow Of The Bones Prodance Blood Cells , Whereas The Function Of Bone Marrow Changes Into Soring Fat As You Get Older . As Adults , Most Blood Cells Are Produced In The Marrow Of Flat Bones Such As The Sternum Or The Breast Bone , Which Is The Narrow Flat Bone In The Middle Line Of The Thorax In Front . The Breast Bone Is Composed Of Three Portions Called The Manubrium Which Is A Latin Word Meaning '' Handle '' ( The Portion Of The Malleus LQQking Like A Handle .Xiphold Is From The Greek Words Xiphos Meaning '' Sword '' And Eidos , Meaning '' Process '' Or Ensiform From The Latin Word Ensis Meaning '' Sword '' Forma Meaning '' Form '' [ Sword Shaped Cartiaginous Process Supported By The Bone ; It Has No Ribs Attached To It ] . And The Gladiolus Process , From The Latin Word Gladiolus Meaning '' Little Sword '' ( The Femur Bone , A Long Bone In The Thigh , Show Which As Bone Marrow Compact Bone , Blood Vessels And Spongy Bone .Bone Marrow Is Responsible For The Production Of Blood Cells. And What Is In Blood ?First Of All . Blood Is The Only Liquid Tissue In The Body . What Makes Blood A Liquid Is A Protenin - Rich Substance Called Plasma . , Which Makes Up Approximately 55 Percent Of Blood , While The Other 45 Percent Of Blood Is Made Up Of Red And White Blood Cells . And Platelets . Red Blood Cells Or Erythrocytes
[ From The Greek Words Leukos , Meaning '' White '' And Cyte Meaning '' Cell '' Carry Oxygen From The Lungs To All Cells Of The Body And It Also Carries Carbon Dioxide From Cells Back To The Lungs To Be Exhaled . WhiteBlood Cells Or Leukocytes [ From The Greek Word Leukos Meaning '' White '' , And Cyte Meaning '' Cell '' ] Also Called Microphages , Can Go In And Out Of Blood Vessels To Clean Up Worn-Out Or Dead Cells And Protect The Body Against Invading Bacteria , Viruses , Or Other Foreign Cells . Platelets Or Thrombocytes [ From The Greek Words Leukos , Meaning '' White '' And Cyte Meaning '' Cell '' Which Are Fragment Of Cells Formed From Large White Blood Cells Within Bone Marrow , Are Needed For The Blood Clotting Process That Happen When Blood Bessels Are Injured . Red Blood Cells . White Blood Cells . Platelets ;.... Human Beings Are Constantly Creating Duplicates Of Themselves In The Form Of What Is Called Genes , Which Hold The Genetic Code For Your Exact Mak-Up . Genes Are Carriers Of Of The Genetic Information Passed On From Generation To Generation In TheSex Cells Of All Organisms . It Consists Of A Helix Structure Of Chain-Like Molecules Of Deoxyribonucleic Acids ( DNA ) In Most Organisms And Ribonucleic Acid ( RNA
In Certain Viruses And Is Usually Associated In A Linear Arrangement That Makes Up The Chromosome . Nucleic Acids . Are Long Chain-Like Molecules , Made Of Repeated Sequences Of Phosphate And Sugar Likeages-Ribose Sugar In RNA And Deoxyribose Sugars In DNA . Attached To The Sugar Like In The Backbone Are Two Kinds Of Purines ; Adenine ( A ) And Guanine ( G ) . And Two Kinds Of Pyrimdines Cytosine ( C ) Anduracil ( U ) In RNA . A Single Purine Or A Pyrimdine Is Attached To Each Sugar ; The Compound Being Called A Nucleotide . The Nuckeic Acids Extracted From Different Species Of Animals And Plants Have Different Proporytion Of The Four Nucleotide . Some Have More Adenine ( A ) And Thymine ( T ) , While Others Have More Guanine ( G ) And Cytosine ( C ) . However , The Ratios Of A To '' T '' And Also G To C. Are Equal . How Does All Of This Tie In ? Inside Of The Bones , In The Marrow Of The Bone Blood Cells Are Produced . They Are A Whole Person Being Created Inside Of Yourself . Inside Of Your Bones Fresh Humans AreBeing Created And Old Ones Are Dying . Thus If According To The Bible Eve Was Taken From The Rib Or Bone Marrow Of Adam
Genesis 2 ; 21 - 22 And I Quote . And The Lord God Caused A Deep Sleep To Fall Upon Adam And He Slept ; And He Took One Of His Ribs , And Closed Up The Flesh Instead Therefore . And The Ribs Which The LORD God Had Taken From Man
Made He A Woman And Brought Her Unto Man .
Then Shouldn't She Have Been An Exact Duplicate Of Adam In Every Way ?

Please Read Verse 1 - 4 Of Genesis Chapter 11 In Your Bible
In Genesis11 ; 5 It Mentions That A Yahuwa ( Which Is Tammuz , The Deity Appointed Over You ) . '' Came Down From The Crafts , Which Are The Crafts Used By The Eloheem To Travel . This Further Proof That 200 Eloheem Stayed After The Cloning And Pro-Creation Of The Family Of Qadmon / Adam Or The Adamites .

Please Read Verse 5 Of Genesis Chapter 11 In Your Bible ;....
The Aramic Hebrew Word For Confound In Genesis11 ;7 , Is Bawlal , Meaning '' To Confound , Confuse Or Mingle '' .

In Genesis 11 ; 6 It Says '' Behold The Am = Nation Of People Are Ekhawd / One And They Have All Ekhawd / One Sawfaw / Language ... This Is Speaking About One Am / Nation Of People '' Which Were The Babylonians Genesis 11 ;9 .. Under The Rule Of Nimrod , And Everyone Within That Am / Nation Of People ' Spoke Ekhawd / One '' ' Sawfaw / Language ' . And That Language Was Cuneiform , The Language That Yahuwa Spoke To The Angels Before Coming To Earth . So The Babylonians . Who Were Descendants Of Noah According To Genesis 10 ;1 Sawfaw / Language Became Bawlal '' Confused Into Lisaan = Many Dialects Or Tongues From Cuneiform The Original Language . These Tongues Accadian , Aramic / Hebrew And Syretic / Arabic , Gave Birth To All The Other Semetic Dialects
Here Another Question If I May .
Is There A Difference Between Heaven And Paradise ?
Radical Faith 09-24-2004, 03:48 AM Let see what The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition say about it first:
Paradise
1. often Paradise The Garden of Eden.
2. Christianity.
a.The abode of righteous souls after death; heaven.
b.An intermediate resting place for righteous souls awaiting the resurrection.
3. A place of ideal beauty or loveliness.
4. A state of delight.
Heaven
1.The sky or universe as seen from the earth; the firmament. Often used in the plural.
2. Christianity.
a. often Heaven The abode of God, the angels, and the souls of those who are granted salvation.
b. An eternal state of communion with God; everlasting bliss.
3. Any of the places in or beyond the sky conceived of as domains of divine beings in various religions.
4.
a. Heaven God: Heaven help you!
b. heavens Used in various phrases to express surprise: Good heavens!
5. The celestial powers; the gods. Often used in the plural: The heavens favored the young prince.
6. A condition or place of great happiness, delight, or pleasure: The lake was heaven.
These definitions support the Bible in these scriptures:
Luke 23
42 Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom. "
43 Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
Revelation 2
7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Genesis 28
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.
17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
We see both words mean the same thing in most cases the major difference is Heaven can mean the sky or outer space where as paradise is most definately a utopian place of bliss or supreme pleasure. Many books have been written about this subject none more famous than Dante Alighieri's La Divina Commedia (The Divine Comedy). This imaginative literary work describes Dante's fiction journey through Paradiso(Paradise). Examine Dante's system of paradise composed of 10 heavens:
The System of Dante's Paradise
The Ten Heavens
10. The Empyrean: the Holy Trinity, the Virgin, the Angels and the Saints
9. The Crystalline, or Primum Mobile: the Angelic Orders
8. The Fixed Stars: the Church Triumphant
7. Saturn: Temperance; Contemplatives
6. Jupiter: Justice; Rulers
5. Mars: Courage; Warriors
4. The Sun: Wisdom;Theologians
3. Venus: Love marred by wantonness
2. Mercury: Service marred by ambition
1. The Moon: Faithfulness marred by inconstancy
As we see here this is Dante's attempt to combine the two based on the Ptomelaic astronomy of his day, Roman Mythology and the Catholic Church's idea of heaven and paradise.

Is There A Difference Between Heaven And Paradise ?
Yes . The Word Heaven Has Its Root In The Middle English Word Heven . From Old English Heofon . You Will Find As The Language Shift From Latin To The More Recent English . Heven Came From Haefen . Meaning '' A Harbor Anchorage Or A Port '' . So In Fact . The Original Meaning Of Heaven Was Not The Abode Where God Dwells , But , The Port To Which You Dock And Meet God , A Place You Would Arrive At .
Now The Word Paradise Is Generally Thought Of As Being From The Greek Word Paradeisos . Meaning '' Garden . Enclosed Parked '' Or Area . It Has Its Root In Pairi , Which Means '' Around '' And Daezo , Meaning '' Wall Around The Wall Or The Enclosure . The Bible Uses Gan '' In Genesis 2 ; 8 , Where It States , '' And The LORD God Planted A Garden Eastward In Enden ; AndThere He Put The Man Whom He Had Formed . '' The Hebrew Is Gan '' Garden And Eden For '' Delight '' So You Get Simply The Enclosed Garden Of Delight . , Where One Receives Great Pleasure And And Joy . The Word Delight Is From The Latin Word Delicere Meaning '' To Allure '' . And The Word Lacere Meaning '' To Entice '' . Again . We Are Back To Promises Of Plesaure And Luxury To Lure People To A Specific Place . Why Would A God That Knows Your Every Thought . Feelings , Plan And Wishes Psalms 44 ; 21 And I Quote , '' Shall Not God Search This Out ? For He Knoweth The Secret Of The Heart .
ThankYou For Shareing Your Belief's . I See You're Learning A New Way To Explain Things Very Good .
Here A Another Question If I May Ok .
What Does The Word Genesis Actually Means ? :killpc:
MississippiRed 09-24-2004, 06:21 PM Does it honestly matter whether you can prove there is or isn't a God really...just wait until you die and then you'll find out for certain otherwise it's a mute point believe what you want let the other folk believe what they want and find out the truth when we all leave here simple as that.

People Like YourSelf Hold On To Religion Because They Can't Make It Any Other Way In Life . Religion Is Basically A Crutch . The Only People That Cling To Religion Like Yourself Are Those Who Can't Face The Real World . People Like Yourself Use Religion As An Escape . People Like YourSelf Make Religion LQQk Important Because They Have Failed . And Are Sitting Around Waiting And Praying That One Day God By WhatEver Name You Give Him Allah / Yahweh / Yahuwa Etc . Is Going To Come Save You And Take All Your Worries Away . And That's What Religion Teaches You . It Teaches You , Faith , Belief , And Symbolism . To Desire Security Is A Sigb Of Insecurity . The Sad Part Of Waiting Is You Have To Die First In Other To Find Out What You Were Told To Believe If It's Real Or Not . As Far As I Know No One Has Come Back And Say There Was Such A Place As Heaven . Let Me Leave You With This Ok
You Must Learn To Distinguish Between Self And Truth , Self Is The Cause Of Selfisness And The Source Of Evil . Truth Cleaves To No Self ; It Is Universal And Leads To Justice And Righteousness . Self , That Which To Those Who Love Their Self As Their Being , It Is Not The Eternal , The Everlasting The Imperishable , Seek NotSelf , But Seek The Truth . Truth In Truth , You Who Love The Truth . ForThe Kingdom Of Righteousness Is Founded Upon Earth . The Ignorance Of Error Is Dispelled By The Knowledge Of Truth . We Can See Our Way , And Take Firm And Confident Steps . The Chosen One . Our Master , Has Revealed The Truth . The Truth Cures Our Diseases . And Redeems Us From Perdition . The Truth Strengthens Us In Life And In Death The Truth Alone Can Conquer The Evil Of Error . Rejoice At The Glad Tidings ! :darts:
