Then there are New Testament books like the Gospel of John. Jesus turns water into good wine instantly during the wedding reception at Cana (John 2:1-11). Normally, the time required to make wine varies from one month to several months or longer. The best wines take longer.
God made space. God made time. God is not constrained by either. If good wine could be made instantly, it becomes more reasonable to consider that a good heavens and good earth could be made in six days.
The wine had attributes as if it were much older. So does the universe.
But you are wasting your breath on atheists. The scriptures is very clear that "Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein." Mark 10:15
This is the rub. You have to be a little child to receive the kingdom of God but satan has deceived them into thinking that they have to become intelligent, educated, logical and scientific to receive the kingdom of God. Whilst they are claiming to be all this they are shutting the door on receiving the kingdom of God because they refuse to be a little child.
This is deliberate policy by God because it means that no one is exempt from receiving the kingdom of God if you only have to be a child to do so. In addition it prevents anyone thinking that they earned the right to the kingdom of God because they are brainy, or logical, or scientific or have degrees.
In fact, behind the cynicism of many atheists is the beef that God won't accept them because they are so clever and if he won't accept them because they are so clever then "up yours." In other words they want a piece of heaven on their own terms not God's.
But of course as we all know they can't see this or admit to it because satan has blinded their eyes and this attitude is proof satan has blinded their eyes as it says in John 12:40 "He has blinded their eyes" and "has hardened their heart," "that they might not see with the eyes" and "understand with the heart," "and be converted," "and I should heal them."
So sorry boys, it is God's way or no way. I know that you hate that fact, but that is how the cookie crumbles.
Now if you were to stop being so proud of your achievements and what you supposedly know.......
