| ninetailschris said: Quote of the week. [I will put in my sig at some point because how much of a facepalm I had) "Sure, the Bible says that he "rested" on the seventh day, but given how that would prove that he is not "fully" almighty"
rest·ed, rest·ing, rests
v.intr.
1. To cease motion, work, or activity.
Just stop. Just stop.
Then God blessed the seventh day and made it [holy],because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
He was finished and didn't do anything else that day being it was the Holy Day in which your suppose to do relax( do nothing important but give thanks to God). Come on ... basic reading ability(context clues) and defintions would tell you that. But just in case.
Sunday in jewish tradition is the day you relax and don't do work. This is the day you give thanks to God's creation. This is the day you don't work.
So, let's think real hard when it says he rested... did he A) Felt tired B) Used all of his ability 3) Just stopped because he was done and was proclaimed the day of rest for everyone.
No, it wasn't A it's was C better luck next time. Read up on [Sabbath] you may learn something.
Btw I used that verse because that's one you probably remember you probably don't know the verse before. lol
2 [By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing]; [so on] the seventh day he rested from all his work.
^ LOL
^ Don't believe me? Read it yourself. Becareful not make obvious screw ups like this one.
Well, I'm off I doubt you will respond to anything that makes you look like you have no crediability like always. I had fun with this one because of how obviously flawed. Still loling at how you said that Abarham not fully trusting God was a contradiction and when I asked how you had nothing. xD
Go read on bible before making topics and look up background information to make sure topics like these don't happen. Plus use some common sense.

1. You can't just put things that people say on these forums into your signature; you always have to ask for approval. Read the forum rules.
2. Why would they say that God rested on the seventh day if it did not include recovering? Why not say that God rested for all eternity? Well, because as you said: Then God blessed the seventh day and made it [holy],because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
Which indicates that he stopped resting the following day. So why would he need that day-off in the first place if he was almighty? My answer is that the people who wrote that story didn't think that through properly.
3."Still loling at how you said that Abarham not fully trusting God was a contradiction and when I asked how you had nothing. xD"
The answer was painfully obvious and I had already pointed it out. One one hand Abraham is the symbol of trusting - and following God's orders after completing the ultimate test, but on the other he doubted God's orders and eventually followed them through after finding a contradiction in what God had said. Finding that contradiction should not have been necessary if he truly trusted God unconditionally.
Still, this isn't that thread and you are going off-topic with that statement.
I would answer to the rest of your essay if it was an actual response to the topic. Instead, all I see is some (we have been over this before) twisted assumptions, misinterpretations and accusations. Some of which are even borderline trolling.
If you can't even stay civil, don't expect me to take you seriously.
