Why has God given us a Bible with all of the evidence that it is not to be read according to the norms of modern western historical and scientific writing?

To let you know that the deeper knowledge in the Bible is found by reading it as an allegory, not as literal fact.

IN THE BOOK of ECCLESIASTES chapter 1 --------if you read the whole chapter:
VERSE 4---one generation cometh and ANOTHER passeth away, but the EARTH abidith for-ever
VERSE 9---the thing that has been, it is that which shall be, and that which is done, is that which shall be done, AND THERE IS NO NEW THING UNDER THE SUN
VERSE---10 (repeat's) is there anything where-of it may be said, SEE, this is NEW??? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.
VERSE 11---there is NO REMEMBRANCE of FORMER THING's, neither shall there be any remembrance of thing's that are to come, with those that shall come after.

I Believe the EARTH is 4 to 5 BILLION year's old. If each generation started out, blew themselve's up and GOD let the EARTH erase them(AFTER one million YEAR's there wouldn't be much to remember) there could of been many of generation's come and go on this EARTH in 5 BILLION YEAR's. What??? There are a thousand MILLION's in a BILLION I think, could be wrong, don't want to activate CALCULATOR right now(don't really know how with-out messing up this site!!!!!!)

P.S. YOUR not agonna make a MONKEY out of ME(I do not believe in Evolution---Period!!! and don't know what a INTEL is.
Hope this helps.......

Well, the big bang theory and evolution certainly make sense since other animals and plants have evolved over time. Look at dogs. Where did dogs come from? They evolved out of wolves that's where. Some plants become resistant to disease or grow in especially hot/wet/cold climates because they need to in order to survive. Certainly these types of theories make much more sense than some magic all powerful magician saying "abracadabra, here is the earth and sun and stars and universe and everything and man, what a rough week. I think I'll take this 7th day off."

God has not given you the evidence that the earth is 100,000 years old...scientists have and if you had done any real reading lately you would know that even the scientists are doubting the big bang theory and evolution.....

the human mind cannot grasp the concept of eternity.if eternity can only last for a minute and you can see this minute then you are just dreaming.yes,God has given us a map of life, only to find someone trying to explain, how point a becomes point b, is mute because, we are limited by our human mind.our society cannot prove creation, no more than science can prove evolution.can we explain why people cannot prove in the existence of UFOs?God exists on a spiritual level, man exists on an earthly level.if God explained everything to us, how can God teach us faith?
God Bless

The geological evidence is that Earth formed around five billion years ago. All I know for certain about the Bible is that it is a book written by various men, about whom we know very little, a few thousand years ago.

Not sure if I understand your question with the words in that order.

I would have to say though that the Bible can hardly be aid to be "evidence" of anything - it is a collection of writings of man.

Peace out

1. The bible does not give time lines for each of it's statements. It does not say when things were created. satan had control of earth when he was expelled from heaven. then he destroyed the surface and God had to re-create. Possibly over and over again.

Because it is mythology, not science.
that is why Science rejects religion. Science deals with the real world, religion on the other hand, deals with mythology and fantasy.

in case you do not see any evidence of God, then you favor to open your eyes. because you could't see Carbon Dioxide, does no longer recommend it would not exist. because you could't see wind, does no longer recommend it would not exist. because you could't see God, does no longer recommend He would not exist. there is evidence of God, that is the advent round you. go searching and also you would possibly want to discover evidence. you particularly imagine that DNA might want to form out of chance? you particularly imagine that the mind you imagine with might want to nicely be formed by coincidence? you particularly imagine that galaxies might want to nicely be formed out of chance? no matter if advent or evolution, something always had to be modern-day. even as you assert "Who created God?", yet another question is likewise major. " Who created the chemical substances that all started evolution?" "Who created the skill, which supposedly in accordance to evolutionists, existed?" "Who created the explosion/vast Bang?" in case you could answer those questions, then i will answer your question "Who created God?" the position is your evidence of evolution? i do not imagine there is any. evidence of God is everywhere. From the suited sundown to the daybreak, from the suited forms of birds to the fish. From the very breath you breathe to each and each and every heartbeat, from the technique of a seed to the solor gadget. the global and universe are too suited to be chance. purely like you could experience wind, you could experience God. you truly might want to be contained in the right body of concepts, and be contained in the right faith and church. i comprehend there's a God because of journey, you could't disprove journey. until eventually you've been by skill of one of those staggering journey, do not tell me there is not any longer any form of evidence of God. The Apostolic journey is the purely excellent evidence. (God did come right down to earth, difficulty is, the Jews crucified Him. He died using affection for the global. The Jews are nevertheless searching for Him. they did not even note of He became right here.) (If God did come down immediately, and confirmed all of His capacity, why do you imagine human beings might want to commence worshipping Him? it would want to probable be because of His capacity, probable some out of outrage. God did not pick human beings to worship Him out of outrage, yet out of love. also, if He did come to earth, the finished global might want to worship Him, with out real dedication. If the global rejected Him 2,000 years in the past, why might want to immediately be any diverse?)
