Science wil never beat the Bible. I Trust the Holy Ghost more than i do trust mortal scientists. if someone can try to coerce the Word of God to fit scientific views then we really need to rethink our commitment to defend the Bible from all lies.
The reality is that science supports the bible. The fact that some (so-called) scientists are paid to invent theories to discredit it doesn't mean these scientists are following the science. Same as with the covid vax. Most unbiased scientists are against the vax, but it's the ones who are paid to shill for it that are pushed on TV. Doesn't make it science, though.

Yeap with all their archeological discoveries just confirming that indeed there was a flood. Or check out new chariot wheels found in the red sea to confirm the crossing of the red sea or the buried city of Babylon. The truth that surpasses all truths. The word of God

I believe this is strictly an overview or synopsis of the more specific details of creation to come.

There is nothing to suggest a “gap” of indeterminate time between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2, which is part of day one of creation.
Hello PennEd,

My feeling is that the word of God is pretty detailed regarding what was created on what day and creation of the earth was not one of them. As I said earlier, it was already there and the first thing of six days of creation is light. Now, if it said, "On the second day, God created the earth which was empty and void. And the evening and the morning were the second day," then the creation of the earth itself would be a part of that six days, but it wasn't. It was already here before anything else. And example of this is that it says that on the 4th day, the sun, moon and stars were created. And how long has been here, we just don't know.

That's my take on it anyway. I suppose we will be able to find out when see Him.

Fortunately, you don't have to wait till then. You could read his own synopsis of it in Exodus 20:11.

I understand this is your interpretation.
I just disagree with it for the reasons I stated.

No reason, except imagination to think the Earth wasn’t crest on day one.

Well, if that was the case, then I would have to stick with the fact that the creation of the earth itself, is not a part of the 6 days of creation.

I would like instructions on how to create my own planet please.
And if I was creating it, maybe I would put a few dragons I mean dinosaurs in it, and have humans fight them.

Though maybe I would put the humans in a garden and keep the dragons I mean dinosaurs away from them at first, or at least warn them..though I supoose I could take off their legs if they were getting uppity and make them crawl on the ground with their bellies.

All the rest I would probably drown with a big flood except for the snake type ones because those ones can swim. Hello alligators and crocodiles.

Every creature that God made had a purpose for humanity. The dragons and dinosaurs must have been created so that humanity would strive to be brave by facing them instead of hiding their faces from them. it can also be argued that Adam was a giant who was able to fight off these mighty creatures and protect his family. How do you explain Adam and Eve eating from the tree of life by simply plucking the fruits out of more than ten feet tree,. the fruits are mostly at the top, it can also be argued.
