Proclaimer: Yom’ is the Hebrew word for day but it does have varying meanings.

Luckily, we use the word “day” exactly as the Hebrews used the word “yom” – so it makes it easy for us to see what is meant in Genesis 1.

Proclaimer:  I might say that back in my mothers day, they didn’t have the internet.

Correct.  In fact, I wrote on this thread…[Read more]

Mike:  But the bottom line is simple, Gene… you either believe the BIBLE that the earth is about 6000 years old – or you believe BIG SCIENCE that the earth is 14 billion years old.  Only one of them is true – and try as you might, you’ll never be able to twist the scriptures enough to make them align.  

Adam:  This is the reality of the matter.…

Berean: Hi Mike 

God through Jesus Christ CREATED EVERYTHING (as far as our earth is concerned) in SIX DAYS of 24 hours, and he rested on the seventh day.

Do You agree?

I 100% absolutely agree with everything you just stated.  🙂🙏

Proclaimer:  Be a truth seeker and you will love God and science.

This describes me.  Of course I know the difference between science and scientism.  I know that science has never once contradicted the scriptures – while scientism is a cult based upon purposely contradicting the scriptures any and every way it can.  You don’t yet realize that the…[Read more]

Mike: …BIG SCIENCE does not allow for a heaven and earth formed entirely from water as their primary building blocks.

Proclaimer:  Wrong! The bible clearly states that God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was void. Then he got to work terraforming the planet. He hovered over the deep / waters. From there he separated night and day a…

Hi Mike,

You: Offering praise could be considered participating.  This is also how Jesus described his own participation in God’s creation in Proverbs 8:22-31.

  And Jesus is the brightest of all the morning stars, right?

Me: I did ask how many morning stars are there mentioned throughout the entire scripture, didn’t I?

What is the reason tha…[Read more]

Mike……I agree with Proclaimer on this,   Because it does give the idea that the heavens and earth did already exist at the time of the beginning of this creation on earth.  You also should consider the the words “in the beginning” may only be this present creation we now live in , that may not include other earth beginnings that have taken place…[Read more]

Exod.20 

And God spake all these words, saying,
I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the…[Read more]

That is assuming too much.

I can agree that there are 6 stages and the 7th is when God rested from his work.

It could be 6 literal 24 hour periods, but it may not be either.

While a virtual world could take 6 literal days to create, and an AI looking from inside may come to the conclusion that is impossible, we know it is possible because the…[Read more]

You can tell what you want, the book of Daniel and the last book of the Bible (Revelation) are essential to understand and live the time of the end which is now.

Hi to all

LILE A WATERED GARDEN

An Amazing Fact: About 75 percent of Americans are chronically dehydrated. Lack of water is the number one trigger of daytime fatigue.

Many people don’t realize how much their body needs water. The thirst mechanism in 37 percent of Americans is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger. E…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer

In the end, WHAT do you believe in?

I BELIEVE THAT THE DAYS MENTIONED IN GENESIS 1 INCLUDE 24-HOUR DAYS, LIKE WE HAVE NOW.

And I believe that is THE TRUTH.

Gadam,

What you say is false and comes from the devil…
Daniel is a true prophet AND for sur It is not the spirit of truth that instructs you.

The Devil is another creation of the NT writers and Christianity. Here is the truth about this writer of Daniel as per the historians;

Gene, is your post a general statement or does it apply to the video in some way?

‘Yom’ is the Hebrew word for day but it does have varying meanings.
It can be a 24 hour period. Or can be the 12 hours or so of daylight. I just think of day as a stage that depends on the conteext. I might say that back in my mothers day…. which obviously means a time period.

Two things you need to consider.

1. Why would 24 hour literal days…

The Bible is the correct account… on EVERYTHING.  But as you can see and attest, it is very hard to get people who believe in both BIG SCIENCE and the Bible to even acknowledge that there are any contradictions.

I’ve found the opposite. People think science has disproved the bible. In actual fact the two agree more than you believe. The co…[Read more]

1.  You did not arrive at that understanding from anything written in the Bible.  You have that understanding simply because BIG SCIENCE does not allow for a heaven and earth formed entirely from water as their primary building blocks.

Not at all. The bible clearly states that God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was void. Then he g…[Read more]

Gene:  So your false “assumptions” that “all” the scientific communities doesn’t believe in a Creator is false.

I never said any such thing, Gene. In fact I’ve been learning science from Godly organizations like Answers in Genesis and Creation Ministries International for years.  But there is a big difference between these organizatio…[Read more]
