Subject: What was Jesus doing in the earth 3 days |
Bible Note: Truthfinder: You ask, "In regards to the length of God's creative days, what conclusion have you drawn?" ..... As one who is willing to accept God at His word, I have no problem with reading the days of the Genesis creation account for what it says -- days: plain 24-hour days. Theories abound, but concrete scientific proof that it had to be otherwise is lacking. This issue, along with other issues, boils down to this: Are we to believe God or man? Are we willing to shed our natural skepticism, admit our ignorance, and believe in the integrity of the Bibe and in the God who inspired it? As for me, I choose not to pit my pale understanding of God's universe against the truth that its Creator has revealed. And most certainly I am unwilling to be washed about like a grain of sand on an ocean beach by the lastest pseudo-scientific speculation. Skepticism and faith don't make good bed partners. Trying to explain away Scripture in order to make it seem to conform with man's prejudice, whim, wish, or speculation is not only senseless, futile, and doomed to failure, but it eats away at faith like a cancer, and rots the spirit as surely as cancer rots flesh --Hank |
