So then you are saying that these sons of God were not born with a sin nature. so after that 1,000 years of celibacy ( you still haven't told us if god made daughters of God as well for these sons of God). so we can conclude it possible that an untold number of these "Sons of God" after 1,000+ years of celibacy, saws the daughters of mankind and lusted after them?
Why does every thing have to be spelled out for you gender related? Are all humans automatically males, unless you think they need to have sex? Sons of God is just a term like humans is just a term. Should we start saying "womankind" to not offend your "mankind" not being gender understandable?
Do you need God to put a sex talk in Genesis 1 so you could understand how they multiplied as sons of God for 1,000 years?
Why would God create sons of God with a sin nature? Do you not understand that there was no sin and no death for 1,000 years? Is that too impossible to God, that He had to stoop to your demands that all humans be created with a sin nature?
Yes the bible claimed Eve is the Mother of all living. Remember ALL Scripture is given by inspiration of God. It doeasn't have that passage in parantheses saying except this one. so if you have a verse that says this is a lie or that Eve did not give birth to the entire human race that was born - I am all ears.
God did not inspire Adam to name Eve. Adam did that all on his own. Adam just disobeyed God and now is a sinner. Why do you reject that Adam could have lied? Are you saying now Adam could
not lie, or God would not have told Moses the exact words Adam used, even if they were a lie?
Adam was bragging and you are deceived by Adam's state of mind. But you are a son of Eve so there is that going for you. Eve did not give birth to those sons of God created on the 6th Day. Eve was not even around on the 6th day.
Who said anything about 12 hours? Not me! From the time Adam and Eve were created to the fall is an unknown time frame. It could have been decades and even centuries for all we can know.
You claim they were created on the 6th day. You have changed your stance on that point?
There were 12 hours of darkness on the 6th day, and 12 hours of light. Adam had no time to name all the animals go to sleep and see Eve the next morning in those 12 hours of daylight. The Sabbath started at 6pm sharp in God's created time keeping.
Now you just willy nilly throw in "centuries" of time on your own imaginative guessing? At least I pointed out the verses in Genesis 2 to state a Day of the Lord.
But hey, why use Scripture, when your imagination is better?
Now keep 2 Peter in context and recognize basic uses of grammar you should have learned in k-6 and you will see this is not a doctrine but a euphemism comparing a day with a 1,000 years and a 1,000 years as a day in respect to the patrience and long suffering of God.
So God is not patient enough to allow the 1,000 year reign of Jesus? You are now an Amil propenant who claims 1,000 years is not A Lord's Day, but just some indefinite time reference declaring God's patience? The point Peter said to not be ignorant about had nothing to do with God's patience. It had to do with those scoffers, who declared that since the beginning nothing has changed. Peter was pointing out over the last 4,000 years, it was only as days to God. God is patient no doubt, letting humans enjoy sin for 6,000 years. God is also longsuffering, so Peter was not making it a doctrine. Neither am I. God set up life in 1,000 year increments and then compared that to "days". That was pointed out in Genesis 2. Obviously you don't Remember the Sabbath Day of the Lord, nor the length thereof.
Your kind of error is common with all people who pull a verse or part of a verse out of its context and force it fit in things it never was thought of by God!
And you are one who listens to other humans and their theology, as if it made sense, until one actually reads Scripture.
If you were an honest sutdent, you would see that Peter did not write a thousand years is a day to the Lord and a day is 1,000 years (to whom by the way). If it said that I would be agreeing with you and we would not have this discussion. But because God made sure that the little word "as" was included for both, He was making it simply clear and plain, He was making a comparison. and th ecomparison is to how long Gods patience is- if you keep verses in the context god inspired them to be.
No, this is a figurative phrase compared to a literal time period. It is not an euphemism. Day is not 24 hours in that text. The Greek word is defined as the 12 hours of daylight. Peter is not comparing a day to 1,000 years. Peter is comparing time with the Lord as 1,000 years. If you are being literal it would be 12 hours is equal to 1,000 years, and 1,000 years is equal to 12 hours. Peter was quoting the psalmist from Psalm 90:4. Peter made the point a day with the Lord. Peter did not say a day is equal to 1,000 years to the Lord. In the Greek there is no verb. Even if it is understood that way, there is no verb. Peter wrote a prepositional phrase. Peter did not even use the whole quote. The first century readers would still see it as 12 hours, and know it was only half of the quote from Psalms:
"For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night."
The psalmist pointed out both daylight and a night watch as being closer to a true 24 hour day. However time as in yesterday and the night watch is still not the point. A thousand years in both instances is literal time passing for humans. The text does not mention God's patience and longsuffering, although it points out all the changes and destruction humans face due to God's punishment. Time is fleeting even though it seems there has been lots of time on earth.
Peter was pointing out dispensations of time, and that God was patient and longsuffering. Perhaps you missed the subtle hint Peter gave in the phrase Day with the Lord? Several NT writers had the Day of the Lord in their thoughts. All figurative and not a literal 24 hr. day. In fact a few verses later Peter points that out again in verse 10:
Look at the verse in it's surrounding context:
3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
A) Peter is referring to people in the last days who mock Jesus' physical return.
B) they are willingly ignorant of the flood and the length it took for the flood.
C) the present universe is being kept for a special day or time period.
D) That day WILL come- even if it seems a long time coming!
There is nothing in this passage that God inspired to show He was making a doctrinal statement of time as you suggest wrongly.
Then you probably need to figure out what the Day of the Lord truly is. Since neither Peter nor I are making this a doctrine, even the Psalmist was aware of the Day of the Lord. Moses was aware of the Day of the Lord. This is not a new concept now nor in the first century. So falsely accusing me of trying to start some new doctrine, searching God's Word is a better use of your time.
Peter pointed out the last day scoffers would be ignorant of time. Today we can see they have totally changed the time God gave to Moses in Genesis 1 and 2. They claim billions and millions of years of constant change. They claim there was no global Flood. Even Christians scoff at the point there was a 1,000 year period of no sin and no death. Explain that one to evolutionist who cry constant change and the decay of carbon dating. Decay did not even start until God cursed the ground when Adam disobeyed God. But go ahead and scoff and interpret Genesis according to modern science. It will never change what actually did happen even if you reject the plain truth in God's Word.
