Quote:Hey, yadda, speaking of common sense, how did Mary have Jesus if she was a virgin?
Forget the ol fairy tales, answer me with "common sense".
While you're at it, how come its not mentioned in the old testament about dinosaurs?
If what you say is correct everybody must have had a T rex in the backyard.
Dinosaurs are mentioned in the OT.
They are called 'dragons', 'leviathan', and 'behemoth'.
There may be even more names.
Those are the ones i know.
God talks to Job,
Job 40:15
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
17 He moveth
his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
18 His bones are as strong pieces of brass;
his bones are like bars of iron.
Are there any creatures alive today that have a '
tail like a cedar [i.e. a tree trunk]'?
"....his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly."
T-rex was clearly a meat eater, but perhaps there were other dinosaurs that, "eateth grass as an ox.", which had large 'loins' [hindquarters].iAs to 'how did Mary have Jesus if she was a virgin?'
Jesus himself declared that what is impossible with man, is possible for God.
Matthew 19:26
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Isaiah 55:8
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
ALSO....
Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold,
a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name
Immanuel.
Immanuel = = God is with us, or, God is in our presence.God among us,
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9 Jesus saith unto him,
Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
