m The post is not about the human part of Christ, isn't discussing Adam and certainly not giving a Grandmother to Eve so you add to scripture, it is speaking of the age of the universe.

My post is about the affect on the world that saying that scripture puts a date on the age of the universe that is, (again), adding to scripture. All scripture tells us about that date is to tell how the world was in the beginning, not saying when that beginning was in our kind of time.
So you have and I require some special knowledge to understand the Word of God ? That Genesis chapter 1 is not possible and what it says must be tampered with and changed to line up with atheistic understanding ... Pack yourself a big lunch, you'll be here longer that you got before I buy it ..

all these planets are part of creation why do people think about earth time only God created other planets with time bubbles of their own. people still want to make earth the center of the universe and don’t even think of other time scales right in our own backyard. Earth alone does not set the time for the whole universe and certainly not even in the same solar system along with other planets.

Mercury 1,408 hours
Venus 5,832 hours
Earth, 24 hours
Mars, 25 hours
Jupiter 10 hours
Saturn 11 hours
Uranus 17 hours
Neptune 16 hours
These ole boys know something about time..

It says "in the beginning" and says what it was like in the beginning. Science says that the beginning was more than 6 thousands years ago. Is there a verse in Genesis that says it is impossible that the beginning of anything of earth was ONLY six thousand years ago? It does not. Science says something was here over 6 thousand years ago, and science says that something was here more than six thousand years ago. You say nothing was here more than six thousand years ago.

Got any verses that say God said it is just like creation days?
10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

Therefore He only blessed the sabbath nothing says about blessed and hallowed the other days, thus the importants of the whole verse is on the sabbath. Thus in six Yoms which is a period of time not 144 hours as you are interpreting them to be.

He compair the sabbath day with the day he rested, a 24 hour day,

since the 7th day is a 24 hour days, it goes to show that the 6 days were 24 hours also. In fact it’s in the text,

Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

the green represent the 6 days of work, and companies it to the 6 days God worked

the red represents the 7 th day which he commands us to rest, as he rested on the 7 day of creation.

it fits perfect.

Scripture does not say the seventh Yom was 24 hours there is no mentioning of evening and morning on the seventh Yom that is an assumption neither does the other Yoms mention a 24 hour Yom

Seventh day is separate not to be used as a reference to the other days if it was so God would have stated there was a evening and morning on the seventh day

It’s right there in the passage

the Jews were to work 6 days, and rest the seventh

just like God worked 6 and rested the 7th


i Mean really, I don’t God wasted his breath telling moses this, and I high,y doubt moses thought Hod meant anything other than 7 literal days.

God did not have two, we have the first 6 days as reference. It’s called precedence. Use the first 6 to establish the 7th

and moses in his law declaired the 7th equaled one day,

No one knows how long God rested on the seventh but our solar system is in a time bubble each planet has its own time bubble, the human body cannot work 7 days a week the body needs rest and that is why God gave that example. scripture shows God working for amount of time on each day, rested then went back to work God does not need rest or create the universe quickly He is infinite.

Your driving me crazy man

moses told us how long, the same time he told Isreal to rest, on the 7th day.

Well most of the 6,000 is based on the genealogy added up from Adam to today, where did you get another 4,000
It’s just a guess, one only assumes we have a completed genealogy, I do not like to make decisions based on assumptions

Let science save you then ..
