Donald posted a discussionThe "serpent" in Genesis 3
What is your take on "serpent" in Gen. 3? A snake/one of the animals? One of non-Adamites/humans? Was it represents sinful flesh? I've seen some theories and I am trying to figure this out.See More

Fulfilled Theology Debate
There is diversity of thought within the religious world about the fact, time, manner, and purpose of Lord's return (Parousia). This debate site is founded on the principle that truth has nothing to fear from honest investigation. Those who are members of Fulfilled Theology are encouraged to participate, ask questions and engage others in discussion and debate of any and all aspects of eschatology and the theology that arises from it.
We ask that members of Fulfilled Theology continue to monitor their thoughts and comments with the realization that the site is open to everyone and whatever is published or posted may be used or quoted by others to further their own agendas, honorable or not.
