Darwin's Theory Of Old Earth

Gen 9:3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you, even as the green herb have I given you all things.(after the flood) or maybe you belive this instead? 2Pe 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 3:4 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.

Man Made Church Traditions

'The new law requires you to keep perpetual sabbath, and you, because you are idle for one day, suppose you are pious, not discerning why this has been commanded you: and if you eat unleavened bread, you say the will of God has been fulfilled. The Lord our God does not take pleasure in such observances:'-Justin Martyr to Trypho 1st century Rom 14:5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike.

What Is The Age Of The Earth

What Are Some False Traditions

To quote someone is a big responsibility. If the quote is not verbatim, it must be noted as such. Here is the end of the referenced quote by Ignatius to the Trallians: And what are the deacons but imitators of the angelic powers, fulfilling a pure and blameless ministry unto him, as the holy Stephen did to the blessed James, Timothy and Linus to Paul, Anencletus and Clement to Peter? 1Cor 3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours, 22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come, all are yours, 23 And ye are Christ's, and Christ [is] God's. It appears the Peter has an equal stance, not one of superiority or authority over the whole congregation of God.

What Are Some False Traditions
	Matt 1:2 Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren, Same father..

What Are Some False Traditions

especially Mary the mother, whom they report to be an object of admiration and of affection to all. For who would not rejoice to behold and to address her who bore the true God from her own womb, provided he is a friend of our faith and religion? And in like manner [I desire to see] the venerable James, who is surnamed Just, whom they relate to be very like Christ Jesus in appearance, in life, and in method of conduct, as if he were a twin-brother of the same womb.-Ignatius to John
