Bible Note: Makarios, Ps.90:4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769. does this not answer the thousand day , one day priciple. Gen.1:14-19 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for SIGNS, and for SEASONS, and for DAYS, and YEARS: 15And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19And the evening and the morning were the FOURTH DAY. The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769. God did not divide time into a twenty-four hour day until the fourth day, so the first 3 days could have been much longer then 24 hours. Lets go back to Adam , God said in the DAY that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Is God lying? for Adam lived 930 years. Now if you take the thousand year ,one day principle Adam died before the day was finnished. And if you take the stand that this is a spiritual death are you not then making this allegorical? Now I ask this question because I beleave the whole bible to be both a narritive and allegorical. Did God rest on the seventh day? If so why does Jesus state in Jn.5:17 But Jesus answered them, My Father WORKETH hitherto, and I work. The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769. Could it not be , because we are now living in the sixth day? and the seventh day is in the near future.Just a thought. In Christ Scott. |
