Not quite. Time is an illusion created at the fall to be a reminded of the consequence of sin; a measure of decay.

The past is just a memory; the future a hope or worry, if you are so inclined. But we only exist NOW. God cannot see us yesterday because there is no yesterday. He knows his purposes for the NOW as it changes quantum state, and he will accomplish his purposes.

We are like the fish who swim where we will, but he is the current that pushes us where he will.

The intimacy with God which is available is so close that we would think we were gods, if we had not already declared him to be the Only God. (This is the secret of the 4-legged shin and being co-heirs with Christ)

It is so close that death does not separate us from him.

NOW is the time of salvation, TODAY is the day of repentance.

Silly git. He is spending money legally, given to him by congress.

Obutter is the one who greased the skids of Presidential decrees. This is why President Trump could undo so much of his stuff by decree. Had Obutter used the Legislature he might have a lagacy of something other than utter failure.

What I like or dislike is irrelevant. Truth stands on it's own.

The name Elohim means God (el) separated from his people (im) by ignorance (h).

Israel means Man (is) joined to God (el) by revelation (r).

When he first created man, man did not magically know God. His teaching makes him known.

Eve's temptation was to choose good and evil for herself (the same you are doing) and usurp God's nature as the one who defines it by his character.

As a result, our instinctive nature, to choose good and evil for ourselves, is what makes us an enemy of God.

It is easily enough solved by declaring he alone is God. This is essential religion.

Declaring yourself to be a perfect spirit is the same as declaring that you are God. Good luck with that. I don't think you will like it for long.

Liar. You are fighting against a system that says believe to before you can know. God says you can know before you believe.

Truth is not personal; your truth and my truth. Truth is universal.

You are just too lazy to prove that God exists, and to eager to be your own God.

Isa 43:10 Ye [are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may KNOW and believe me, and understand that I [am] he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

When you choose to believe liars you perpetuate the lie. You are the blind, both following and leading the blind.

>"How do they prove it was God?"

A good question, even though it is not honest. If it were honest, you would ask the same of your claims.

The answer is: Sensus plenior.

God, who is like the currents of water to the fish, makes himself known by weaving detailed double-entendre of the cross through the history, written by many men who knew nothing of the cross.

There is no human explanation for the observation that when a metaphor is used the same everywhere, these detailed vignettes of Christ are constructed using every verse of every chaper of every book of the OT.

There is no human explanation how there are in total agreement with th preaching of the NT authors.

There is no human explanation how the story of the cross springs, like a fractal, from an invisible aleph, the the first word, then the first sentence then the first chapter, then to the whole book, repeating itself at levels within levels.

Just because you are too lazy to learn or be taught, does not make your claims true.

Just like the current to the fish, the written record displays his intimate involvement in the history of men, to write pictures of the cross, hidden in that very history, in precise, prophetic riddle (can't be known until after the fact) of the cross, by men to whom it was impossible to know.

>Why doesn't God say he woke him up?

The fact you have these in memes shows you stopped thinking long ago.

Ge 2:21 ¶ 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 thereof;

For others: Because as interesting as the literal is, the purpose was to give a prophetic riddle of the cross.

The words have double meanings:

Sleep = death

Adam = man

took = married

rib = certain limping side

closed up = delivered

flesh = mankind

"And God caused the man to die and he died, and he married a certain limping side and delivered mankind."

Easy parts of the riddle:

God caused Christ to die and he died.

The church is called the bride of Christ.

He is the savior/deliverer of mankind.

Harder part: What is he limping side?

The seed of the woman in Ge 3 (a prophecy of Christ) would have a bruise heel causing him to limp.

When Jacob wrestled with the angel he received a withered thigh, causing him to limp.

Christ was both God and man. As man, being tempted in every way that we are, he did not want to die. It was the source of his temptation throughout his ministry.

At Gethsemane, just before his death he asks not to die, but declares that he was willing to.

He made his flesh 'limp'; he reduced its strength over him, and then went and was obedient to death.

Your laziness does not excuse your ignorance.

Do you think we need scripture to tell us that cattle eat grass? Yet it tells us that the grass was given to the cattle to eat.

This is prophetic riddle of the birth of Christ when the seed (of the woman), the seed (the word of God: Christ) was placed in the feeding trough with grass surrounded by cattle (we are his sheep) .

Seed is ground and baked (faces tribulation) to be made into bread, which Jesus said was a symbol of his body. The manger scene is a prophetic riddle/promise of the cross where his body was given to us.

>"…never would have a hangup about Adam and Eve eating an apple"

No hangup. Again for others:

The tree was a teaching aid of God's holiness. It was set aside as a demonstration of it.

Eve made herself to be a peer to animals by being deceived into trusting her instincts over the word of God.

Adam made God to be his peer, declaring good and evil for himself, knowing full well the consequence.

They did not learn from the demonstration, so he kept teaching.

By making oneself to be God, you separate your self from God. The hangup is not his, but yours in denying the truth that God alone is God.

The word for skins sounds like the word for light (representing God's holiness).

When God killed a lamb (amar) he killed a symbol of himself, the word (amar). And gave a skin (something like his own holiness, to cover them.

Even before this, Adam was hidden in the tree (singular); the same tree they had eaten from, and God could not see him. Since the tree is a symbol of the cross, this is a prophetic riddle showing that when we are hidden in the cross, God does not see us, but the work of Christ is our stead.

He continued teaching of his holiness/separation by making them more separate outside of the garden.

God desires to be known and he accomplishes this by teaching. The fool who says there is no God cannot be taught.
