In response to Falderow Set Aside posted by Migisi:
Do you believe everything that's written in the Bible? All of it?
Yes as a matter of fact. I've seen enough evidence to convince me.
Wasn't Adam the son of God too? Made in God's image and likeness. Being a child of God yourself through Adam's line, are you not also a son of God? Or would you be God's great, great, great, (to the power of ?) grandson?
Was Adam God in the flesh?
He (like me) was a son of God, but not the Son of God.
'Will save', or has saved already? So, if Jesus has already paid for your sins past, present, and future - you don't have to pay for them yourself. You've got your ticket to Heaven no matter what you do. Or, does Jesus' free gift of salvation come with strings attached?
I said "will save us" meaning that if repent of our sins He wil save us, not could, would or should.
Jesus paid for our sins, but it does matter what we do, past, present or future. If we reject Him, we reject the price He paid, so it is us who still pays for them. If a man accepts Jesus today, but murders his family tomorrow and dies, he won't make it to Heaven. But if he repents (truthfully) before his death, and commits no sins after repenting, he will make it. The whole "Once saved, always saved" belief is one of the biggest lies amonst Christians today.
In the Bible, there were more than 'one' who rose from the dead, and raised people from the dead.
True, but who raised them? Jesus, unlike the others in the Bible, has authority over death. He rose on his own, while the others had to be risen.
Elijah raised a dead boy, Elisha raised a dead boy, Paul brought a boy back to life, Peter raised Tabitha, a corpse touched Elisha's bones and came back to life
Elijah, Elisha, Paul and Peter may have risen people, but it was in fact God working through them.
