As far as the fossils and the scientific evidence regarding them, technology glitches all the time,......
..... and we didn't even realize smoking was a problem until years after we did it..
The pieces of evolution are natural selection, that definitely has to be true. But I would be careful what you put this on because this is very controversial.
We have evidence from literally dozens of different dating methods, and all the different methods are consistent with a 4.6 billion year old earth. Your statement above is like saying "For one thing, no one knows if the earth is flat, I don't care how knowledgeable you are about science or the Bible. It could be anywhere from completely flat to having a little curvature."For one thing, no one knows how old the world is, I don't care how knowledgeable you are about science or the Bible. It could be anywhere from 6000-2 billion.
Where does it say that mountains are everlasting? Mountains most assuredly are not everlasting. Plate tectonics builds up and tears down over the course of billions of years.The scriptures say the mountains are ancient and everlasting.
So I don't see any lies.

The reason the Father cannot lie is simple: Whatever He says, is.
If the Father were to say, "Earth's moon is made of feta cheese," the elemental structure of the moon would change to feta cheese. Not only that, but because the Father is extemporally simultaneous, once He said, "Earth's moon is made of feta cheese," it will always have been made of feta cheese. There would be no memory in creation of it having ever been anything else.
So God cannot lie because creation will always conform to His word.
If God wants someone to be deceived, He must employ an agent to do so, such as a "lying spirit."
Now, if the question is, "Has God ever directed that anyone be deceived?" we have the clear answer in 2 Chronicles 18 and 1 Kings 22 (and implications in other verses).
I'm neither a typical Creationist or Theistic Evolutionist. I have many reasons for what I hold to, but without telling those reasons it will seem bizarre to most people.
What I believe is that the world is old and it's been inhabited from the start- instead of animals evolving, they simply went extinct, and God replaced them with other species.
This went on for a long time until God made Man.
Evolution is simply an illusion that anti-theists want to see.
Thanks for the quotes. I genuinely wasn't familiar with that turn of phrase. Quite interesting.No Young Earth Preacher ever mentioned that? Odd.

So then the mountains are ancient and everlasting!
That's the Truth.
That means creation must tell the truth without recourse to spiritual revelation. It means that the information gathered by observation must be correct, or else men could not be held accountable.
But regarding what "ancient" means:
That is never the case.
Nothing about what is observed guarantees an accurate post-analysis.
Ev-er.
Then you're saying scripture lies, and that God is playing "Stump the Dummy" with mankind.
"Stump the Dummy" is when a leader demands a subordinate answer question knowing he has kept the answer from everyone but himself.
Then you're saying scripture lies, and that God is playing "Stump the Dummy" with mankind.
The mountains ARE ancient, but they can't be everlasting in the literal sense, since:So then the mountains are ancient and everlasting!
That's the Truth.
The bible says, let man be liars and God true. I assume youve seen Gods spirit work and God called upon you. So I say this with confedence that man has lied and decieved us. No fossil record exists at all. Leading scientists are attacking God which is the spiritual war between the devil and God. Knowing the spirit of Jesus, be confedent. If you dont know Jesus's spirit in your life, the read the bible and grow closer to God.All the scientific evidence points to an ancient earth. Furthermore, the fossil records support the slow change of species over time, such as dinosaurs to birds. *IF* these things are not true, it would follow that God deliberately created a world with false scientific data. Right? So then this begs the questions...
Did God lie?
And if God lied, why?
What do you believe?
