Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Clarence Larkin and his book Dispensational Truth and his work on the Gap Theory has been thrown around a lot lately. I never heard of this book until this debate started, so i found a copy and down loaded it. Here is a free copy of the book, published in 1918 and revised in 1920.    http://ourbaptistheritage.org/userfiles/Dispensational-Truth-Clarence-Larkin.pdf

This book is still being published today, and let me say this. If this was first published today, it would be the laughing stock book of all creation and evolution debates. There is a reason i never heard of this book, or his theories. They are so outrageous and not even based in Science. Larkin just made stuff up that isn't based on Science, he didn't even understand the Science of his day. I cant see how anyone could use this book to make any king of claim to anything about creation.

He consistently uses the Revised Version instead of the KJB. He adds to the KJB and changes words and their meanings over and over again. Clarence Larkin is the forerunner of Steve Quayle and Tom Horn. He like them do not have a firm understanding of the Bible and like to mix their own beliefs and what they think it should say in with the Bible. I am so surprised that anyone uses this book as a defense of Gap Theory. Seriously. just amazed. And he admits that his whole reasoning for his belief in Gap Theory is so it can match up to the made up Science of his day!! Seriously!!!

Quote
But the "Word of God" and the "Works of God" must harmonize. There can be no conflict between the Bible and Science. Science demands thousands of years for the formation of the earth and all the time it demands is given to it in the sublime words of Gen. 1:1, "In the BEGINNING God created the heaven and the earth." This verse then covers the whole period of the formation of. the earth and its preparation for the habitation of man. pg 49 of the PDF

This is just crazy...  Shocked There is no Gap Theory, you have to either use a non JKB or you have to CHANGE the KJB. Period, even Larkin did it.
