For the most part Scripture was yet to be written during the time of the burning bush and Sodom/Gomorrah. Now we have all of the scripture, understanding, witnesses, prophecy fulfillment, the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The scripture/cannon was closed with the writing of Revelation.
The old covenant was different from the new in that it was greatly symbolic and used shadows such as the temple and sacrificial systems. Now that Christ has come and fulfilled these shadows there is no more a need for them Hebrews 1:1
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭1:1‭-‬2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[1] God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, [2] has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds...Hebrews has all of your answers.

If anyone says that they have the "gift" of healing or miracles they are being deceived.

If someone were to claim this gift doctors, hospitals, dentists etc would all be out of business but instead people like Benny Hinn and many others are gainfully employed and deceiving many. Men who God would deem unfit to have this gift if it were a possibility.

How 'bout if someone is prayed for who has cancer and is blind and bald and bed ridden from it and the very next day is walking around healed and seeing?

How about the children in the cancer ward who die anyway?

Prayer has been proven not to work by the way.


It does not help when you have people actively hiding natural cures for diseases so they can make money off of the treatment

Natural Cures would not fall under Miracles just Nature.

Miracles are all around us if you can open your eyes enough to see them.
Most people have been blinded to them for generations.

alright, this here is a story of our creation


There was a time when everything was still. All the spirits of the earth were asleep - or almost all. The great Father of All Spirits was the only one awake. Gently he awoke the Sun Mother. As she opened her eyes a warm ray of light spread out towards the sleeping earth. The Father of All Spirits said to the Sun Mother,
"Mother, I have work for you. Go down to the Earth and awake the sleeping spirits. Give them forms."

The Sun Mother glided down to Earth, which was bare at the time and began to walk in all directions and everywhere she walked plants grew. After returning to the field where she had begun her work the Mother rested, well pleased with herself. The Father of All Spirits came and saw her work, but instructed her to go into the caves and wake the spirits.

This time she ventured into the dark caves on the mountainsides. The bright light that radiated from her awoke the spirits and after she left insects of all kinds flew out of the caves. The Sun Mother sat down and watched the glorious sight of her insects mingling with her flowers. However once again the Father urged her on.

The Mother ventured into a very deep cave, spreading her light around her. Her heat melted the ice and the rivers and streams of the world were created. Then she created fish and small snakes, lizards and frogs. Next she awoke the spirits of the birds and animals and they burst into the sunshine in a glorious array of colors. Seeing this the Father of All Spirits was pleased with the Sun Mother's work.

She called all her creatures to her and instructed them to enjoy the wealth of the earth and to live peacefully with one another. Then she rose into the sky and became the sun.

The living creatures watched the Sun in awe as she crept across the sky, towards the west. However when she finally sunk beneath the horizon they were panic-stricken, thinking she had deserted them. All night they stood frozen in their places, thinking that the end of time had come. After what seemed to them like a lifetime the Sun Mother peeked her head above the horizon in the East. The earth's children learned to expect her coming and going and were no longer afraid.

At first the children lived together peacefully, but eventually envy crept into their hearts. They began to argue. The Sun Mother was forced to come down from her home in the sky to mediate their bickering. She gave each creature the power to change their form to whatever they chose. However she was not pleased with the end result. The rats she had made had changed into bats; there were giant lizards and fish with blue tongues and feet. However the oddest of the new animals was an animal with a bill like a duck, teeth for chewing, a tail like a beavers and the ability to lay egg. It was called the platypus.

The Sun Mother looked down upon the Earth and thought to herself that she must create new creatures less the Father of All Spirits be angered by what she now saw. She gave birth to two children. The god was the Morning Star and the goddess was the moon. Two children were born to them and these she sent to Earth. They became our ancestors. She made them superior to the animals because they had part of her mind and would never want to change their shape.

earlybrd]Did they have last names?


Of course. Adam's last name was "Bronsteinowitz" and Eve's last name was "Persephonicski." When they got married, Eve's name became "Eve Persephonicski Bronsteinowitz." Because the person who wrote Genesis wasn't the greatest speller in the world he just called them "Adam and Eve."

Quite a simple solution if you think about it. That's why no one in the Bible, O.T. or N. T. has a last name. The men who wrote the Bible could not figure out how to spell their last names ... so they just ignored them.

Now you know. wink

Maybe.

IMHO evolution and creationism go together.
Adam and Eve simply the first two humanoids to have souls.
