Man Is A Failure, Always Has Been
By Don twobears
Those of us, known as born-again Christian, spend a great deal of time looking into the Scriptures, reading and understanding according to the perfect will of God as spoken of in the Holy Bible. I have stated that the Scriptures are filled with prophecies all of which up and to this very day have been one hundred percent accurate.
“One of the unique and fascinating aspects of the Bible is that in no other religious literature do we find the accuracy of fulfilled prophecy. Biblical predictions recorded sometimes hundreds of years in advance of their happening are fulfilled in minute detail.”[1]
There are just too many to list. Just with Jesus Christ alone there were well over 300 prophecies fulfilled about him, before he came, when he would come, how he would be born, what he would do, how he would die, and his resurrection. Also in the book of Daniel you have the march of world powers that were foretold before they existed. [2]
In deed, all of the Scriptures, prove the prophecies are one hundred per cent accurate and this despite the efforts of the nay Sayers or athiests to say they do not exist.
My effort is to continually “disprove” the aims of the non-believer. To prove the veracity of the Word of God as absolute truth! They have devised a machine that can calculate the age of anything according to the breakdown of carbon in the unit and then amass a table of contents that tells them how old the particular piece is. The problem is this: Are they able to secure the accuracy of this machine? Are they able to falsify any attempts to change the parameters of the machine to fit their own wants and desires? This is especially significant when they predicate the age of dinosaurs, for example.
In other words, what time frame does this data indicate and how are they to truly KNOW, if the age constriants they have entered into their computers are accurate. “Well…carbon disipates at a certain rate therefore we use the same time frame to quantify our results.” And how do they assimilate this data “time frame” according to other exposures, such as pressure, temperature and time?
Would you expect that this injection of terms would be a time changer? My point, to that particular effort. An example would be the creation of a diamond. Carbon dating is inaccurate at best, but as they say “It’s the best we have at the moment.”
What this means is simple: If granite withers against time, the carbon dating is in the multi-millions of years, until it is at it’s least useful state. Thus, there must be a number of variables equated to the computer program to determine the age of a rock. “It was this at one time and then became this later on, millions of years later…and viola…a we have a diamond.”
Time, pressure and heat! All in the same time frame. We are told we must believe this machine’s data and take it as truth, but up against the Bible, that machine doesn’t matter! The unique property of that machine is time. The Bible however, speaks in terms of eternity and the machine shuts down because it can not calculate eternity. The other problem is this: The machine is a physical entity on it’s own and cannot understand anything which is spiritual─the opposite of physical. Lastly, it can not predict future occurences, therefore of what use is it?
The Bible is the accumulation of “personal” experiences by around on hundred different people. The calculations of man or their machinary have no such data to look at, except that of the Bible. I am of the thought that I would rather believe personal testamony, than speculation by anyone or anything! You must understand that a machine has no idea of what a “lie” is, it is the calculations provided by a man and who is to say they would lie or NOT, or make a mistake?
