the Bible states that God chose to create the universe in seven days. Why did He not do it all at once, in your opinion?

Nor am I. So what? Many claim to be Christian by attending church regularly but are so totally unChristian in their lifestyle. Thank God church attendance is not a prerequisite to being a follower of Jesus Chrit-removed-
sorry, forgot I can't reply because I'm not considered true Christian.

Well, for most, that's a given isn't it?In the Bible, the number seven signified completion or perfection. So in the first Genesis creation account, God "resting" on the 7th day would seem to symbolically indicate that creation was completed. It should be noted that the story is a myth, designed to communicate theological truth rather than scientific information.

Ofcourse, I will hold my tongue on that rather than inflame some people lol!There are vocal groups that teach it is a scientific or otherwise factual account. This view is rejected by mainline Protestants & Roman Catholics.

I've never heard a priest say that the creation story is literal. Btw, I was Catholic for forty yearsMost Protestants and Catholics agree that the world was created in a literal 7 days.
