The thing I find interesting is that Jesus descended from the least likely people. I mean, Jacob loved Rebecca the most, so we'd think that Christ would stem from her, but his lineage comes from the line of Judah, who was Leah's son. <br /><br />Anyway, I digress. We are now reading Evidence for Christianity by Josh Mcdowell in our class. It's an extremely interesting study, and I suggest it as a read along side of your studies. It is, however, very "heady." I actually don't have the book, I'm just interested in the lessons that we are learning in class, but it might be good for you, nonetheless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176707597013847097.post-9803460150011299162010-05-02T17:20:29.670-04:002010-05-02T17:20:29.670-04:00Excellent post.

Next think you'll be saying is the earth isn't flat. Our God is an awesome God, but he's not that awesome. He coudn't possibly be smart enough to create the heavens and the earth using evolution, could he? Setting in motion a complicated process that explains the richness of biological diversity? pbsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176707597013847097.post-59499891320662953092010-04-29T22:45:15.777-04:002010-04-29T22:45:15.777-04:00Great thoughts, Holly.

Good GRIEF...the end of Exodus and Leviticus KILL me. It takes me forever b/c it says the same thing over and over and over...this is the second or third time I've read up to Joshua. I've gotten to Samuel but I'm not too sure I took enough out of it...hence, the re-reading of everything.<br /><br />I'm exactly where you are on the 7-day creation story. Well, sort of...I don't believe in the e-word persay (is that how you spell "persay"?) Anyways...to me there is too much evidence this world has been here longer. BUT, my husband swears there are too many cracks and holes in carbon dating to base a lot on.<br /><br />My doubt comes when I see stuff like 60 minutes with the 1.9 million year old fossils of a 40 yr old woman and a 9 year old boy.<br /><br />OK...sorry. My response is about to be longer than your blog. I'll look forward to your updates!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14102164992606199675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176707597013847097.post-19108325774828303432010-04-29T17:43:48.887-04:002010-04-29T17:43:48.887-04:00Wow Robert.
