Young Earth or Old Earth?
#9
Well, I am going to say that since I am not God (thank God) and since I wasn't there in the beginning to see all this take place (as far as I can remember) that I cannot be dogmatic about these things....

Though it seems to me very curious that in Genesis Chapter 1:3??? The Word of God through Moses reveals that Light was created on the 1st Day....

But there is a problem here with the teaching that this 1st Day and the other Day???s there after must be a 24-hour period (as we here on earth now recon time)

You see, it goes on to reveal that God called this ???Light??? that He created ???Day??? and the subsequent darkness that was separated from this Light he called ???Night??? and when this work of God was accomplished it says??? ???And there was evening and there was morning the 1st Day (or Day One???.)

It is quite odd and a real pickle we find ourselves in if we hold to the teaching that this must be a real 24-hour period with the Sun setting and the Sun rising as we seem to view taking place on earth???. when really it is our globe that is turning on it???s axis that gives this effect of the Sun rising and setting, giving us a time frame count out???. this is all that time really is a counting of the revolutions of the earth turning on it???s axis???.

If you break free of this earth and travel to space far enough away from this planet??? You find that this effect ceases to be. It is Always Day and never Night???the Sun always shines bright???. If you didn???t have a watch you would lose all since of time???

Here is the problem with the 24-hour teaching???. The Sun was not created until the 4th Day according to the Scripture in Genesis 1:14-19???. So, this ???Light??? that was created on the 1st Day can???t be the Sun, but something other???. and since the Sun & moon and the Stars were not created until the 4th Day???How can we teach that this 1st Day, 2nd Day, and 3rd Day, are 24-hour periods of the Sun setting and the Sun rising beginning a day and night as we know it today, with the Sun coming up and going down so to speak???. since there was no such thing that the Earth was revolving around during those 3 Day???s.

It would seem clear that these ???Days??? and these ???Nights??? these Evenings & Mornings are not solace days & nights???. but something other.

Could it be God???s Days and not mans days????
