So, I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday, and he was talking about how God created the heavens and the earth in six days, and it was all good, don't get me wrong, but:
I asked him, "Are you speaking in terms of God's days, or man's days?"
Well, that started a whole new conversation...............
Genesis 1:31) And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
2[SUP]nd[/SUP] Peter 3:1.) This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
2.) That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:
3.) Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4.) And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5.) For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6.) Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7.) But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8.) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
