1 | How old is the earth scripturally? | Gen 1:1 | Nicholson | 18920 | ||
DARWINISM? We do not know much about Darwinism. They say that there was one Darwin. He "found out" that many millions of years ago a monkey by chance became a man and from that man the human race came into existence. After that neither any monkey got the chance to become a man nor any man got the chance to become a monkey. The Word of God simply mentions about sun, moon and the stars. But all that is revealed is about man in relation to the Earth only. Man was created in Gen.1: 26 – 28, to fill the earth, subdue the earth and have dominion over the earth. The whole Bible is about how this was ultimately achieved in Rev.20: 1-6. WATERS brought about the death of all flesh in the days of Noah. Also in baptism when we go down into the water we signify our identification with the death and burial of our dear Lord Jesus Christ and we testify that our old man is dead and buried. Before the 6days in Gen.1 we see that the Spirit of God fluttered over the waters, but after the 6days God RESTED for a day. When we study particular words or sentences, we may not understand their full meaning. We have to see the context and also compare with other sections of the whole Scriptures. (1Cor.2) Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also has made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but the spirit gives life. (2Cor.3: 5,6) |

2 | I'm sorry, what? | Gen 1:1 | koinekid | 19013 | ||
Nicholson, I'm sorry, but I don't see what any of this has to do with creation of the age of the earth. I think you are indicating that the sun, moon, and stars appeared on day four, instead of being created on that day. Your reasoning "appears" (appears, get it :-) ) to be based on the rest of the six days having to do with earth-based Creation. However, this is simply reasoning. It is not qualified Biblically. As to what baptism, the flood, 2 Corinthians 3, or the final consummation of all things (which takes place not in the millennial kingdom of Rev. 20, but in the eternal state of Rev. 21-22, BTW) have to do with Creation or the age of the earth, I'm clueless. You might have to fill me in on their connection. In Christ, koinekid Upholding Scriptural Accuracy,.
