Zone1 Another question to ponder.

[Quantrill]

It has nothing to do with my op. You are starting to bore me.

No, you are bored because you can't refute the Scriptures I gave. You rest on your own bullshit. You have nothing to offer but you.

And how empty that is.

He is so omniscient his history is full of failure?

History is full of failures, but not God's. All is going as He planned it to go.

Where is abortion part of what I said?

Both. God knows those who are of Him and those who are not before they are even born.

Thats why he had to send himself to die? Or wipe all humanity? What about the way we are now?
Failures.

Yes, that is why God the Father had to send God the Son to die. All humanity not of God will be wiped out.

The way mankind is now is the continuing march of history of the plan of God which will culminate in the New Heaven and and the New Earth.

That you read the flood account literally - when it is clearly not - is on you.

Anything that tests the boundaries of human understanding in the Bible is given over to analogies, allegories, metaphors, symbolisms, etc.
For instance, AI says what happened to Noah is just a story, and yet Jesus confirmed the event.

Just read what it says. Don't analyze it, until you have read it.

So when he sent the flood, only noah and his family were of god?

Its an allegory since its impossible.

"For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark; and they did not know until the flood came and took them all away."
Was jesus speaking in allegory?

No. Like I said:

...the flood was an allegorical account of an historical event that was so out of the ordinary and unusual that it was noteworthy enough to be passed down orally from generation to generation.

The embellishment was that God sent the flood because the world was wicked and God destroyed every living thing and flood waters covered the entire earth.

Ok so now jesus is wrong. Ding, you are amazing!

Did Jesus say God brought the flood? No. Did Jesus say the flood covered the entire planet and killed every living thing except what was on the ark? No. Jesus was talking about the end of times and how no one will see it coming.

TN, you are blinded by your bias.

Why would jesus use an allegory when talking about an actual event?
You are the one blinded. Instead of having faith, you claim allegory or some other BS.

I already explained it to you. He was talking about the end of times and how people won't see it coming. He wasn't affirming anything else. The flood was an actual event. The cause and magnitude were embellished to make the account more memorable so that it was easier to pass down. Because that's how knowledge and information was passed down back then. Orally. Through stories. The same applies for the Tower of babel which was a historical event of a great migration.

Apparently you aren't intelligent enough to read these accounts.

When do you think the flood occurred exactly? Do you have any idea? Show me that big brain of yours.

Nearly every ancient major civilization has a flood myth in their mythology, often with striking similarities to others. These stories are common across cultures from Mesopotamia (Epic of Gilgamesh) to China (Gun-Yu flood) to ancient Greece and India.

Is that just a coincidence? Show me that big brain of yours? Or is all you can do is gaslight?

The end of the ice age caused the flood or an earthquake
