According to biblical account, what is the known age of the oldest person on earth?

A long time ago, I gave up trying to justify anything in the Bible. It's simply a matter of personal belief and we should ALL be allowed to make our own decisions without someone cramming their theology down our throats.

I would much rather live my life as if there really IS a God and then find at the end of this life there isn't than to live my life as if there isn't a God only to find at the end of my life there really is. Makes much more sense to me. Before he died, Christ Jesus said to "Love God the Father with all of your heart; and love one another the same as yourself." I think that pretty much sums it all up.

Bird Brain 007, I walk by faith not by sight. I won't judge you not my place. I will tell you God does love you.

Isn't it better to believe, than not? Helps with MANY of life's sadnesses, like when a loved one dies. I choose to believe.

love to learn about everything

What is important is the LOVE!!!

really people, dont discriminate because of religion or science, let people believe what they want to, dont think only you are right, are we not past having a one track mind?

ZyggyStardust, still we have no idea how time was measured I just don't think its how we measure time now

missy189, that's why it is called Faith.

I believe God word the Holy Bible!

Methuselah was God's Countdown to the Great Flood.

If it were not for my belief in God I more than likely WOULD NOT BE HERE AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME. Along with the surgeons and Gods love I would more than likely not be able to type this right now. So do I have faith? You're darn tootin' I do.

Mel, Yes I know!! like without God we wouldn't even have a life!! like we were bought for a price we are not our own!!

MechanizedEagle79284, Yes!! I do!! but somethings are figurative and a lot of things are literal!! that's what I think!! like the bible says a sharp two Edged sword is in Jesus's mouth which I think is figurative!! but I could be wrong! but I think that just means He is gonna be wielding justice!! and then like with Solomon had 1,000 wives which I think is definitely!! literal!! he was very rich!! but some people think the queen of Sheba and Solomon got married I thought before it was 700 but no it was actually 1,000 but I was like before nah but now I'm like well he had a 1,000 wives so it isn't far fetched that they were together!! but he sure did love the women!! would love to go back into time and meet Solomon only if time travel was real!!

Player #339731, yup! ! I do too!! that's why it is called faith because in Hebrews chapter 11 verse 1 says faith is the assurance of things hoped for!! the conviction of things not seen!!

Methuselah!! was the oldest man who has ever lived!! and I bet he definitely aged very well!! he probably didn't even look like 969 probably more like 939!! would love to go back into time and live in the bible times!! ohh!! how I wish time travel was real!!

Christ, the last Adam died for the sins of the world so that he could offer the free gift of life or his Spirit to the world. But we enjoy death more, apparently. I think death is very overrated myself.

Maybe they used a different system than we use today for counting years. I think Alf from Melmac was that old.

One type of literature in the Bible is legend, and legends include lots of exaggeration.

Nimble...,read the Bible.

FOR MYSELF, I CANT IMAGINE A LIFE WITHOUT GOD. HE GIVES ME EVERYTHING I NEED INCLUDING ETERNAL LIFE. WHO CAN ARGUE WITH THAT?

Nothing in that book is real!!

969 sounds a number that aren't random to me

Player #10639782, no that theory developed during the dark ages, after the Roman empire. at the time the bible was written it was known the earth is round... ancient Greek philosophers can attest to that.

Nahald1956, which would be 74. now that is very much believable

buzz, They can believe what they choose, but their actions need to follow guidelines that don't harm anyone else.

actually people thought the earth was supported by 4 elephants standing on a sea turtle.

the more I research science and compare it with biblical texts, the more accurate the bible is. for example in the book of Job chapter 26 it is stated that the earth hangs upon nothing. this was written at a time when people thought the earth was flat

look every person got right to believe in what they want to.whatever make you who you are if it's religion or evolution or whatever,as long as it makes you a better person

Singled out/ Set apart: I've thought that about myself occasionally, whether actually called debatable. Ingrained, within always with praise, thankful for grace, believing this inhabitation ends but then begins the greatest adventure imaginable. Do not grieve, believe! Indwelt only apply, Bye

cool fun fact I've wondered some on. One killed the other then this is progeny from Seth the third?

The way changing music styles drive us fuddy duddies nuts now, this poor chap must've walked around with whatever they used as earplugs back then at the ready at any given moment.🎶😖👎🙉.
