Today, most Bible colleges, seminaries, Christian schools-even parts of the homeschool movement-do not accept the first eleven chapters of Genesis as literal history. In this presentation, Ken Ham reveals why the age of the earth is of critical importance, and why we must accept Genesis as literal history.
The CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis-US, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter, Ken Ham is one of the most in-demand Christian speakers in North America.

The way this presentation ended made me strangely emotional. Some parts of this speech was heartbreaking to listen to, especially the impact that humanistic worldviews that are so quick to change is taken as ultimate authority when so much “evidence” keeps getting revised over time and God’s true word is left at the curb. An eye opening presentation, thank you very much. God bless you AiG Ministries. Thank you for all that you do!

Reading all these comments and listening to Ken is mind bogling. Just as it is mind bogling that others say there is no God. Why should it matter how old the earth is, or on what date God created Adam? To me at least, what matters is that God created all there is, that His Son Jesus paid for my sins, making it possible for me to to gain everlasting life through Jesus Christ, and that the Holy Spirit is with me, every moment of my life to remind me of these facts. There are things we humans are NOT suppose to know, and in gaining that forbidden knowledge we will suffer the penalty as Adam and Eve did.

@@truthgiver8286 "What is the point in having lots of knowledge when every bit of it is wrong" It does not need a POINT. Many things are desired just because you desire them. A good science fiction story has a completely fictitious world, but if the world is *consistent* within itself, you can have a great story and the moral of the story will be the point. This is certainly true of parables, fables and metaphors. The Earth is ancient by scientific means; but if you don't care about "science" and your life is that of a blue collar worker and your entire world is about 50 miles across, what difference does it make how old is the earth? It *can* make a difference with regard to people's willingness to participate in social experiments, conservation programs for instance. If God created fossil fuel, he can simply create more! And while that's true, it appears to have required a few hundred million years to accomplish it. So wait around for the next batch. But I think there isn't going to be a next batch.

@All About Britain currious, what scientific evidence do you have that the universe is billions of years old? What evidence do you have that the earth is 4.5 billion years old? I will tell you the answer, NONE! I have researched this topic at nauseum and was once a believer that Genisus was an allegory for creation; the more I researched, the more I learned that blind faith was required to believe in the science of creation than to believe in God. Please dont take my word; feel free to research it yourself. Matter was created from nothing; nothing filled the universe, and nothing created the earth, from nothing organic life came to be! You need to have more faith to believe in this than to read and believe in the word of God.

Why is the age of the earth so conflicting? Creation took place in eternity, before the fall, where events happen at a much quickened pace, thus the age of the earth will seem much older from the perspective of our laws of physics in time/space, compared to that of eternity.. It is like comparing apples to oranges! Why does this simple explanation elude just about everyone? The answer to this question is so simple and everyone makes the answer so complicated!

In Hebrew we learn that words get their meaning from their first usage (amongst other ways), often by the first time a situation arises they create a word to resemble it, and so with the naming of newborns like Isaac and Ishmael coming from the situation of their birth, both names meaning types of laughter/jokes. And yet in Genesis 1, the word DAY is first used in reference to "and God called the Light Day" and in that same verse "and the evening and the morning were the first day". But that's also where we get the first use of the word "call". So to call something or as it is otherwise translated elsewhere to cry, read or proclaim something, is to make one equal to another, and so the end of the verse and the start of the verse, if you take it deep enough, because "and the evening and the morning were the first Light", because he called the light day. So everywhere you see the word day, it is the name for the light. But if you translate "he called" as the one word it is, well, "he" is not capitalised, so perhaps it was "man" that named light. "God called the light day and he called the darkness Night", and they don't have punctuation so it could also be "God called the light day; and he called the darkness Night" as in, where God sees light, man sees darkness. As the word "he called" is nowadays also translated as "biblical scholar" or "gourd" or "pumpkin" or "squash", but most commonly "read". So: "and God read the light day". And if you remove the "call" from the full word meaning "and he called" you just get "and". "God and read the light day". There's no capitals in Hebrew, so it may not be about naming the light as day, but it's also about 'reading the day of the light.' When you learn Hebrew from Hebrew readers, you learn that it is both figurative and literal, and there's a lot more meaning in the words than in what we read in english. So if he called the darkness night, and then in the same verse it says "the evening and the morning were the first day". Why is it not "the morning and the evening" as we know of it today? Because it is figurative and symbolic. If you order things from taking the darkness of life into account and dealing with it before looking at the light, then that itself is a light in and of itself. And so if it was also good. And if each "day" or "light" of creation is good, then "the light is good", so "seeing the darkness before the light" is good. Which is the order of creation, when darkness existed before God created light. But God still created darkness, it's just that darkness did not exist until when? Until God created the Earth, which was formless and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep. But darkness also means "secrecy" and face has no "the" and like that it is only and never otherwise translated as "penny", and the word "upon" is hyphenated with "penny", and also means "about". And the word "formless" means "wonder" but if you take away the last inflection of the last letter it becomes "confused", take the letter away and it becomes "tea". Each word in Hebrew is built out of other words, and each letter has a name which is itself a word. For the word "formless" it's first letter is the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet and the last letter of the hebrew word "truth", which is made of the first, middle and last letters of Hebrew, it is the number 400, and when you spell it's name out with other letters it is the word meaning "theo" or "note", and the second letter is the first letter in the word for GOD (Elohim), when it is at the beginning of a word it can either mean "the" or the beginning of a sentence to signify asking a question, or it can also mean "who", and as a word it means "here is" or "to be disturbed", and is pronounced "hey", it is used twice in the name of GOD (YHWH) where the first letter means "hand" and the other letter means "and", so "hand of god and god", and that last letter of "formless" is that same letter meaning "and". So "formless" becomes "note of God and", and to spell the last letter meaning "and" you just write two of itself "and and" and means "hook" or "hasp" or "wow". "Note of God and be hooked", or "note the wow". The idea of studying Hebrew and the word of god, is not about who wrote what or what is written, but what can be written with it and what it can mean and what you can interpret from it. When you learn Hebrew from Hebrews it's always about the connections between all the possibilities and what lines up. Not about taking a hard line towards one single way. For everything there is a season. But that being said, 6 days, is the way.

The Bible is inspired by God, your limitations on the language are incorrect. The law of first use is not without deviation. The word definitions are indicative of how many different ways a single word is spelled. There are over 8 different ways to spell "darkness", and each has a different meaning. The first time it shows up it is unique, only appearing a second time in Jeremiah. Don't forget that God is in control of his revelation to man, not some scholars.

Just had a 'Revelation' of my own Ken as I was listening and watching this lecture. It happened just after you produced the horrible textbook and read the first statement! Earlier you explained how cleverly God had given us the age of the earth. 'The Revalation = The years of the earth's longevity stated clearly in the Bible, STARTED with Adam, but ENDED with JESUS! GOD KNEW THE FUTURE so He knew that Christianity would grow as it has: He knew that we Christians would begin Our Own recording of time from the date of Christ's birth, which then would last until the end of the era, when Jesus returns! ' PROOF OF GOD in my eyes! ONLY GOD KNEW THAT TIME WOULD BE SO RELEVANT TOWARD THE END OF THE AGE, so in HIS OWN inimicable way, through His words in the Bible, HE provided irrevocable proofs of earth's timeline from the beginning of creation. Furthermore, He's still doing it! I was in BC Canada 500 miles north, when Mount St Helen's erupted. Upstairs, walking along the carpeted floor in the main hall of my home, I suddenly felt light tremors under my bare feet! As the house was built on solid rock, I didn't know what to make of this, but clearly remember feeling anxious at the time. It was later that I heard the news of the eruption. The information that has been amassed in the years following that eruption has provided so much evidence, in ALL spheres of science, geology, Biology etc., to show that Biblical truth is to be absolutely trusted against anything man can put forward. God knew what would be needed and provided in a timely fashion AND also with minimal loss of life! I do like the way God works. Thank you Ken and your team, for following God's guidance, our own, modern day Noah! I'll continue with the lecture now.

Here's my issue from a hermeneutics (biblical interpretation) stand point. Six days is one thing. The Bible clearly says "first day", "second day", etc. However, nowhere does the Bible clearly state the age of the earth. People got that by adding up the ages in the early Genesis genealogies. However, I don't believe the /purpose/ of the genealogies was to give us the age of the earth. After all, if God really wanted us to know the age of the earth, He could have put "and the world was X years old when Y happened". So should we really be using biblical texts to answer a question that God wasn't addressing? What if God didn't give us enough information to know the age of the earth because us knowing the age of the earth wasn't one of His priorities? WE care about the age of the earth in modern times because of evolution. But that wasn't a concern when the Bible was written. I don't think God was thinking "I'd better be sure the earth is young, because thousands of years later, mankind will come up with a theory of evolution which excludes Me, and the only way Christians can defend Me is if there's not enough time for evolution to happen". Isn't it adding to Scripture to assume that it must be answering our modern questions? What if instead, we read it to find out the questions that God is actually answering, and we made those questions and answers our priorities as Christians?

The only thing that confuses me when people say sin is what brought death is Gen 3:22-23. The bible says the tree of life is what would have allowed Adam and Eve to live forever. Which leads me to think if they wouldn't have eaten of it, even if they didn't sin, they would still have died. Evil already existed, because of Satan decision. It wasn't mankind's sin, but it was still sin. The bible says the Tree of life will be in the New Jerusalem in Rev 22. Which makes me think that is what will allow us to live forever again. Otherwise what is the point of having it in the garden and also in the new Jerusalem. This is where my brain goes when I read this. Maybe it is to technical, or a wrong interpretation on my part, but everytime I read it I question why preachers only preach that sin is what caused death. Not the fact that being separated from the tree is what caused death. I would like to appreciate a loving response to this. Lol whether agreeing or disagreeing. This one point always makes me think about things a little harder. To me it seems like sin didn't really cause death, but it led to a consequence of seperation from the source of life. Death could have still existed though. If a decision was made not to eat. Am I thinking to hard about this?

This is constructive criticism from a Christian and I really don't know the answers to these questions, but they are concerning: 1.) In Genesis 1:1, all of the matter in existence was created before the advent of light itself, and the division of day from night. Plainly Scripture then is saying that the first day was longer than 24 hours because a full day and full night follow after the initial creation of everything. 2.) Also, in Genesis 2:4, the Scripture refers to the singular day ( ἡμέρᾳ) in which the earth was made. This is conveniently edited out of the NIV, but is there in the interlinear text. Here the rationalizing Protestant translators who want the Bible narrative to support their pet theology save us from wondering whether Scripture is commanding us to believe that the Creation days were exactly 24 hours long. Which is literally true: Genesis 1 or Genesis 2; since one says say six days and the other one day? In my opinion, the only way to harmonize both statements is to interpret the word "day" to mean something like "back in the day", rather than like, "Tuesday." It is facially and literally self-contradictory otherwise and we can't have that - and the act of removing the offending text from the translation is not a legitimate solution. 3.) In Genesis 1:28 God instructs man and woman (not named Adam and Eve) to be fruitful and multiply and spread over the earth before then calling all good and resting. Yet in Genesis 2, Adam and Eve do not have children until after the Fall and being cast from Eden. So were man and woman disobeying God by not reproducing during the sixth day, in which case how could God have said it was good? Or were Adam and Eve not the man and woman referred to? 4.) In Genesis 1:26 the interlinear text uses the word "ποιήσωμεν" for the verb "create, make" man and woman. In Genesis 2:7 the Greek word is "ἔπλασεν," or "shape, form" Adam. These are clearly distinct in their meaning, where the first refers to the act of creation of something that previously had no existence, and the second to working on something that exists already. What mystery is being concealed here? The standard Orthodox Christian answer is to read the Holy Fathers and to believe as they did. I tried this, but the mystery only got deeper. The patristic authority would be St. Basil's The Hexameron (The Six Days). That sounds like it would have an answer but in fact it only covers the first five days because St. Basil died before.completing the book. Making this even more mysterious was the story that he has a vision from God in which he was told aforehand that he would not reveal the mystery of the sixth day before he died. So what I am saying to you is that there are great mysteries still to be fathomed in the Creation of both the world and Man, and as tempting as it is to want to have a pat answer for the sake of defending the faith, one must sometimes allow the mystery to be.

You said it yourself Ken. "It was good!" Then " it was not good." Well it wouldn't be very good if it went from good to not good at the very time he was finishing. It was probably good for some time. An undefined amount of time. Then Adam was put in a garden 6 or 7 thousand years ago. Don't lump me with them. Millions of years is preposterous. But I don't cut out the change in Gods attitude toward his creation like it took no time at all . Eve was confronted on the firs day after her creation. That dosent sound good. You give God no time at all to enjoy the good he created, that dosen't sound good. I think you're off as well. By some undefined, realistic amount of time. I enjoy your work greatly. You've been blessed. Keep it up.

Thanks for being calm about this. But here is a question for you. According to Genesis, God didn't create the sun, moon, and stars until the THIRD day. We all know a literal day is defined by one rotation of the earth (or if you're a flat earther, one rotation of the sun around the flat disc of earth). So IF the first couple of days happened before the sun was created, how were those days defined? And the earth was created BEFORE the sun? That's what the bible LITERALLY says. HMMMMMMM. Jesus also said that if "The Temple were torn down he would rebuild it in three days". Is this the literal temple or a figurative one? The literal one took 46 years to build the first time. Jesus also said Pete was the rock upon which he would build his church. Is Peter, the literal rock, typical Judean limestone or more durable granite, or is this a symbolic reading??

The young earth argument is ridiculous for Christians to use. The fact is, we don’t know. Ken Hamm is taking the proverbs 30:5-6 out of context. The Bible is being interpreted from Greek and Hebrew. It could be a bad translation. A prophetical year is different from our year. The saying of day has different meaning. What does “back in the day” mean. “The day of the lord”. So Saying that we may not understand what a day is to God is not taking it out of context. It says morning and evening. Not 24 hrs. In the beginning. Well Ken tell us when the beginning was? Man wasn’t created until the fifth day. We can know how long man has been on earth but we have know idea how old earth or the universe is. And this is not a salvation issue. It’s a secondary issue. Dr. Frank Turek explains this in great detail. I’d advise everyone to watch his debates and listen or read his books.

“Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. FOR IN SIX DAYS the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. “(Exodus 20:8-11). The writer of Genesis is using the creation account of 6 days work/1 day rest as the model of the Sabbath rest. I believe we take God at his word that it was 6 literal days.

I wasn’t as informed as this man to defend it, but I was aware of the significance for why he chose 7 days, that ties into everything as the reason, but it always amazes me that anyone who believes that God is omnipresent,omniscient, all powerful, who created time and is outside of time, would have been hamstrung by time that he created, as if he needed any time. Or that he had problem communicating what he wanted us to know for how long it took, so it must’ve been misinterpreted in translation, or he was mistaken, because we know that he couldn’t have created everything that fast. It’s absolutely absurd, especially coming from people who should know better.

Heat, which follows the same rules as light, works similarly. An astronaut who falls from his ship is instantly snap frozen. To this cult, ignorance is certainly bliss.

Two issues are being conflated here. One is whether or not the six days are literal, and the other is the age of the earth. In six literal periods of day and night, God could have created the earth, and finished creating on the sixth day, making animals and humanity only about six thousand years ago, while the age of the planet we live on could be 4.6 billion years as we measure time today. The age of living beings could only be six thousand years or so, with no death prior to the seventh day, while the age of the planet could be in billions of years. All that would mean is that God miraculously had very few cycles of daylight and nighttime - what the Bible refers to as "days" in Genesis 1 - during the 4.6 billion year period. (The only reason we think the days couldn't have been that long, is that from man's way of thinking and from what modern science tells us about what a day is, we think a day has to take place in a certain period of time, with day and night based on the earth's rotation, and the rotation speed being calculable and consistent (predictable) according to modern science.) This logical possibility seems to be ruled out by Ken Ham at the beginning of the video, and I don't have much hope that it will be pointed out later on in the video either.

If they did not exist for the three and a half Days before then who’s days are in those first four days there was no way to determine what a day is so they have to be gods days not days as we know them today.

NO for ”We don’t have any eyewitness testimony”, because of above and tons of other evidence summarized by Lee, and thus we have the eyewitness testimony of Jesus, Word of God, of global Noah’s flood. In fact, Gospels are de facto the most trustworthy documented history in the whole human history. Jesus already existed when Noah lived and even before, and was One with Father God and full of Holy Spirit. If you deny the words of Jesus, then logically you must also deny pretty much all human history, including the foundations of modern science, which was built on the principles of Bible.

@All About Britain thank you for your sincerity! Are you saying you don’t believe the apostles of Jesus died at all, or? As far as I know, we have the best evidence for the deaths of Peter, Paul and James (brother of John), but there is also evidence of others as well, although not so certain. Lee Strobel interviewed many scholars of different expertises using the methods of courtrooms and these deaths were covered. There is also non-Christian account of Josephus about the death of James (half-brother of Jesus). There are also no secular sources that would compete with the Christian sources. No early non-Christian sources accuse the apostles of lying or recanting their faith. Or, what counter-evidence can you present? Obviously, I am not a historian, but a scientist in the field of nanotechnology, so this is the end of my knowledge, and as a non-historian it takes hours to verify everything strongly with two or three different sources. As a scientist, I’m oblicated to investigate the evidence, and so far I have found no good reasons to doubt these expert accounts. See, virtually _all_ knowledge is all about trust, isn’t it? Knowledge inevitably requires Faith, because we always must choose a set of axioms that we believe in. Hence, _choose_ to believe the evidence presented by the martyrs (not only the Apostles) and believe the Gospels, and allow simplicity of Faith in Son of God reveal all things to you by the Spirit. I truly testify to you that the Gospels are far more self-consistent than you make them appear in your writing. The accounts of crucifixions can be harmonized with no major issues when it comes to the death of Jesus and the resurrection of Jesus. There sure are weird things like Mary and others not touching Jesus before he has ascended, but not essential. Plus, the virgin birth miracle of Jesus is easy to Father God. Believing in it requires much less faith than the faith required to believe in, e.g., the materialistic miracle of abiogenesis of life. Like the apostles, having met my Lord Jesus Christ, who won my ”wisdom”, I’m now similarly very willing to lay my life for others, even as martyr, whatever serves the superior Wisdom of Father God.

Now here's where I don't agree with our brother, when he says the virgin birth is not tied to our salvation. You see, it is important that Jesus is born of a virgin because if He is born the same way as all of us, of a man and a woman, He cannot save us; because He would have inherited the Adamic sin nature and if He is tainted with any sin then He would not have risen. Also how can we trust God to save us if He has lied through the mouth of His prophets and told us about the virgin birth; may it never be indeed.

When pressed, every evolutionist I’ve spoken to, admits that the “overwhelming evidence” they have is fossils. But the only evidence fossils are, is that the creature lived; no tag is included to say how long ago, or that it had offspring. Usually they point to the geologic scale, which is supported by evolution, which is supported by the geologic scale, which is supported by evolution, which is… circular reasoning, NOT evidence. True, the professionals mostly agree on the 4.5 billion years, but this has not always been so. This number is more speculation and consensus than actual data. Interestingly, the drive behind current secular scientific study is THEORY focussed, rather than EVIDENCE focussed, but to secure funding, they need to inspire investors with the promise of future discovery, NOT with evidence that they already have. Makes sense. The current evolutionary statement of origins is essentially (paraphrasing) “everything came from nothing”, which is a scientific impossibility. You seem like an intelligent person. Are you buying it? I liken evolution to visiting a film set… if you look where the cameras are pointing, the environment appears believable. But, it doesn’t take much work to stray off the path and find that the pillars are merely fortified facades with little to nothing behind them to back them up. Evolutionists get very angry when they decide to see what the creationists believe (keeping an open mind) and realize that they have been “kept” and lied to by their peers for years.

Two opposing things cannot be true at the same time. God is not the author of confusion. That problem emerges from elsewhere. Paul warned in his letters to Timothy that there would be apostasy, brought about by different groups forming around doctrines that appealed to them, and teachers willing to make popular compromises. As Paul also wrote in "chapter 2" of his second letter to the Thessalonians, the lovers of truth are those who do not fall for these deviations from the traditions that had already been established by Christ and His apostles ...who based their revelation of the Gospel on the proper interpretation of the Old Testament, (the Law and the Prophets) including Genesis. At the end of the day, believing and speaking the same things regarding His word is not only possible, but expected. And no, it's not a matter of choosing the right extra-biblical institution to tell us, and calling the collection of them "the Church" as if this is what Jesus built. We know what an evening and morning cycle is. The question is, how many other compromises occurred across history to bring us to the point where it's difficult to understand what a day means? Posting this comment three years after this lecture, we find confusion in the culture over how many genders exist. Surely, none of the various apostate "church" organizations would adopt that confusion... and we're right back to Rom 1.

And people noticed my parents wasn't Christian's I never told them I knew if I did it would be a beating. Because I went to a old lake with a few of my friends and my parents told not to go there. I had old blue jeans on and when I went to the bottom of the lake to push my self up like I have done dozens time's and it was deep I say 15 or 20 ft and very muddy when I hit bottom it felt like something grabbed my legs and the more I tried to get lose the tighter it got I felt down to my legs and realized it was bobwire. I could see my friends looking down at me barely then they ran off. I find out later to get help from the old rancher that owned the lake. But he lived probably 2 miles from the lake . Then as I kept looking up a beautiful warming loving light came down and it felt like it carefully picked me up and with a instant I was sitting on the beautiful rolling hill and Jesus was standing in front of me. The first thing I noticed was the unbelievable colors and the great smell's that's hard to explain but you know the smell loves you. As Jesus started walking to me I noticed the grass and each blade was a different color of glittery green and look like they had different colors precious stones in them. But as Jesus walked to me the grass was like waving and praising Jesus and when he stepped on the grass they didn't fold like when we walk on grass. Even the air felt like it was praising Jesus. There was so much he showed me until this day I still remember stuff from that experience. Back to the age of earth. It was created in 6 days and his 1 day of rest. Then we had Adam and eve I don't how long they was in the garden before there disobedience to God. So many people has different theories any where from 24 hours to millions of years. Alot of people stick to the 130 years. But that was after the sin. Before the sin adem and eve would have never died . So it could have been 100 billion years they was in the garden or it could have been 20 minutes.

What is wrong with this idea: that in Genesis 1:1 we have a bare statement that created the heavens and the earth, then in vs two, attention is turned to earth, a darkened and empty unfinished earth. For six days, then, God outfits the earth to be a habital place for man as it reads in the rest of the chapter. The appearance of the moon, sun, and stars would simply be the removal of the darkness enshrouding earth to make the sun and moon and stars created in the verse one statement.

God created a mature universe in 6 literal days, spins of the earth on its axis. Just as He created a mature Adam in the garden on the 6th literal day. Also, Genesis chapter 2 explains God creating Adam, placing him in the garden and then creating one more of each animal, the rest of the earth is already full of animals and plants, so that Adam can name each one and pick a wife. Adam names and rejects all of the animals, so God puts Adam to sleep, and creates Eve. Eve was the very last thing created by God, so she did not witness God create anything, she had to take her husband's word for it, and how well do women listen to their husband's even today? So therefore, it was easier for the serpent to approach and deceive Eve. You also notice that she misquotes the word of God. Adam, knowing that God would have to destroy Eve for disobeying, became sin himself to save her, which is a picture of Christ, becoming sin for God's love for us.

There is no definitive way to know what time schedule God operated on at that juncture but it seems there was periods of work followed by periods of rest...although he seems to rest on the seventh day after 6 days of work...but either way there is a time separation of some sort...first he did then then next day this...why would you seperate the days though is all the work was together....but anyhow...if God was subjecting himself to our time frame..couldn't he have been working on sections of creation for eons?

For I decided to know nothing among you except Creation, and that in six days. A strange hill to die on. Whenever the transmission of cause and effect in a system is broken, science becomes untenable. Yet that hasn't stopped Evangelical belief from mirroring Asgard in the Marvel universe, a place of both magic and science. A sweater is made using a thread of science until that thread snaps or contradicts assumptions, at which time a thread of magic is employed to finish the garment. The new sweater is then proudly worn, ignoring the biblical warning against mixing two kinds of threads. Fact isn't truth and truth isn't fact. They parallel but they do not substitute for each other.

Since Sun does not exist before creation, I rather believe a Milky Way rotation, 1 rotation = 250 Million Years. That time includes collecting pre-earth debris from somewhere else (Earth core is believed to be Fe-Ni, a dead star remnant, end of burning cycle H, He, Li, C-N-O cycle), so earth is older than our Sun ! Astrophysicist believed that heavy element on earth (heavier than Fe-Ni) were a debris of Supernovae explosions, the r-process in Universe.

Question. Are "all" the words in the Jewish book the words of God? [2] What proof have you apart from blind belief? [3] What is the story of Chapter 6 of Genisis? [4] Dates of the written history' of the many races of humanity. [5] How long did it take to populate the earth? [6] How long did it take for the various species of man to evolve. [Not from monkeys] For example In Africa alone there are at least four. For once you know, you can then possibly calculate the date of the flood and then the date of creation' commencement. For all the above had to happen some months before the above taking place. To get started Mesopotamian written history and all writings since, right up to today in that area of the world, commenced around 6000 years ago. Jewish history was put into the writing around 2600 years ago. But if the flood was localized in say the lowest point on the planed, that is the Jordan River valley which comes to an abrupt ending at the western edge of the Dead Sea, all is possible, possibly? Oh, and forget about fossils and the first reference to the ARK related to an oblong four-sided box with a flat bottom to carry legal documents in. So that could be the design of the craft Noah used to save himself, his family and their livestock?

Does it matter? Jesus was (probably) a bloke who was either born in the time of Herod's rule who died between 5 BCE and 1 CE as per the gospel Mathew, of go by the gospel Luke or he was born at the time of the census by Quirinius in 6 CE, so we have a 9 year varience if we accept the writings within the bible. All of this is inconsequential really, as what the relevant question is, did this Jesus bloke rise from being dead to become a god (again). Timings of the birth of this bloke, and the magical happenings associated with him are irrelevant, until it can be demonstrated that there is in-fact a Christ to start with.

@Silverheart1956
@Silverheart1956 Жыл бұрын
Dear @Eleazar, You may decide to observe the Sabbath in the 7th day if you wish, and it is good to have a day of rest, (I take at least two days of rest per week). Some Christians do not observe the Sabbath and that too is OK. We have to remember the Decalogue is part of the Mosaic Covenant given to the Israelites as a sign of the covenant Yahweh made with them in the wilderness (see Exodus 31). Christians are not under the Mosiac Covenant and the Mosiac Law. That covenant has been "brought to an end" and we are now under the "ministry of the Spirit" (2 Cor 3) Those who to demand that gentiles act like the Jews following the Mosiac law are what the Scriptures call "judaizers" (Gal. 2:14). At the council of Jerusalem, as described in Act 15, the apostles met to determine what parts of the Mosaic law should gentiles be obligated to obey. They never mentioned that gentile converts to Christianity must observe the Sabbath. If observing the Sabbath was so important to new covenant Christians, then why is it not mentioned that gentile converts should observe the Sabbath. That is probably why there is no instructions or commands in the New Covenant Scriptures telling us we should observe the Sabbath or how to observe the Sabbath, and probably why there are no examples of New Covenant Christians observing the Sabbath. If you choose to observe the Sabbath, you may; .. and if you choose not to observe the Sabbath, you may. Be Well, DZ

Read what the new testament has to say. We are under the new testament or covenant, not the old. Romans 14:5-6 [5]One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. [6]He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks. Colossians 2:16-17 [16]Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: [17]Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

I also understand that you are saying that gentile Christians are not obligated to keep the Mosaic Law. I do have a few questions that needs clarification. 1. Are you a Christian Jew, believing that Jesus is the messiah and provided final atonement for our sins on the Cross ? 2. Do you consider the New Testament Documents to be God-breathed Scripture ?

Well the 1 day of creation is God's 1day which is equal to 1000 earth years. The plant God resides on rotates 1 time is equal to earth's 1000 years. So this mother earth was created in 6000 years and god rested 1000 years which basically is one week or 7 days and then day eight Adam and Eve was created. Christ lived at the end of day 11and we are now at the end of day 13 when Christ returns about to enter the morning of the first resurrection or the beginning of day 14.

The "young earth" idea is not supported by the bible, although the bible is very unclear. In Genesis 1, God created everything in six days, on the seventh day he rested. Genesis 2 tells of a time when there was no man on the earth ("and there was no man to work the ground"). Whether this means that there were only women left or all humans were gone is not clear. So god created all living things again, now starting with Adam. The bible doesn't tell when this happened, it might have been on "day 8" or many million of years after the first creation. Creationists make the error to think that Adam was created on the seventh day, but it is also possible that he was created billions of years after that.
