Random Questions; Bible-based answers

[DavidLamb]

Eli was raised in Albania, which is Eastern Orthodox.

Where do you read that in the bible? (Sorry, I have just realised that you were referring to a poster here, not the biblical character!)

 

[GWH]

Yes I don’t believe that either, and nor does the Bible suggests such a thing.

But why are you asking these questions like you’re in the first grade?

Jesus was born in the flesh from Mary.

Most humans in the world call this process birth, and the one who gives birth is the mother.

Yes, we acknowledge that God has no parents and He is eternal, but in the flesh He chose a different way.

Through Mary via The Holy Spirit.

Now, I realize that you’re asking these questions because you might be allergic to Catholic vibes, but this is what the Bible says.

Jesus was born through Mary in the flesh via the Holy Spirit.

This is why we call her the mother of God in the flesh.

Well, we should not blame Joseph for not being able to be the surrogate mother instead of the virginal father of Jesus in the flesh--and yes, this RQ was about RC vibes.

 

[Genez]

The point is that all/both sexes have equally sinned per GN 3:6-8
and all/both sexes can be equally saved per GL 3:28.

True... sin is sin.

But the nature of the sins were not equal.
If Adam never sinned, we would not be fallen from birth.

For sin entered the world through ONE man!

ROMANS 5:12

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin;
and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

Not by the woman! But by one man!

I figured.
In an effort to try to better understand each-other as Christians from various backgrounds and cultures i attempted to answer some questions here about the catholic church: https://christianchat.com/bible-discussion-forum/proof-that-catholics-worship-mary.201301/

I think your hypothetical is unrealistic or not applicable.

You need to realize that when Paul spoke of Adam, he assumed Eve's "corporate" involvement.
IOW, Adam was viewed as the head, but not by way of denying that Eve was his equal helpmate,
as signified by being created out of his side.

Yes, Paul refers only to Adam, but GN clearly describes them co-sinning. Harmonize that.

The mention of A&E prompts this RQ as I read an article on Homo sapiens in a recent issue of National Geographic Magazine:

How does the story of A&E jibe with the existence of humans in Africa about 60,000 years ago per archeologists?

It jibes sufficiently well if humanity is defined as God-consciousness and moral conscience,
and if genetic science indicates that humanity is descended from a single genetic source/couple--
which it sorta does.
