You are backing up evolution and billions of years with what scripture?
God told them specifically to be fruitful and multiply. Or are you saying they were disobedient on this?
And you are assuming Genesis 4 was the first time when it says nothing about that.
See this is what is wrong with evolutionists. It doesn't appear billions of years old. You only think it appears that old because you are listening to secular scientists. If you had never heard or read a single thing by secular science and only had the Bible would you come up with billions of years from the Bible alone?
I challenge that it would not even enter your thoughts.
So if its secular science that has put this idea in your head at least be honest about it and say that's where you get it from. Stop saying scripture indicates billions of years because it does not.
Who says they are correct? Why do you listen to them? Are they God? Are they infallible?
I walk outside and I see God and his creation. Do I see billions of years? No, I don't listen to a word that comes out of their mouths. Because I know the world as God created it is no longer here to test. I know that all their tests are messed up and wrong because the world underwent a flood, the vapour canopy came down letting in space radiation, volcanoes erupted causing electric activity across the earth crust.
They assume that their dating methods are foolproof when they are completely deluded.
Recent New Zealand lava flows yield ‘ages’ of millions of years.
Radioactive “Dating” Failure
I must be sounding a gong in an empty room. I don't know how many times I have to say
I never said 6,000 years. Again, that is your thoughts,
not mine.
I said 15 to 50 thousand and I have also said that the earth may have sat void for an undetermined amount of time. None of this takes away from 6 day creation.
Also God has and will send a powerful delusion on people who have turned away from him.
2 Thessalonians 2:11
For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie
That is scripture.
This is how it appears to you and only because you have taken the words of men to heart as being the truth.
Lets look at one link, Three Pieces of Evidence That Prove Evolution is a Fact
(lol) Three Pieces of Evidence That Prove Evolution is a Fact
1) common ancestors.
2)
We See Species Changing Over Time.
3)The Remnants of Past Generations
And you talk about assumptions, these are the biggest and wildest assumptions of all time.
Animals are similar because the same creator made them al out of the same material, no one was there to see any of what they claim and again its all how they interpret what they see. God made kinds, they had a huge wealth of DNA that has spread out over time.
yet evolution claims it all started as a one-cell creature who somehow miraculously gained enough DNA to become a man.
I will tell you what lead me away from God, a school that had a history teacher teaching evolution and nuns teaching creation. I thought they were all a bunch of hypocrites because if these people all believed the Bible why was their two views and how did this view of evolution fit with what we just learnt in scripture class? Because it didn't. Even as a somewhat agnostic teenager I could see that. I was like, believe it all or don't believe any of it. I believed in evolution because that seemed to be what was normal, while creation was put down-just like it is in here. Then I became a Christian and was conflicted, then I was put onto Ken Ham and he changed my life. You can mock him all you like, instead of not believing, my thoughts did a 180 and became a creationist because what he said about no death before sin made sense, the typology in the Bible made sense, the overall plan of God wanting a people to himself and the New Heavens and World made sense. While I might not agree with him on every point, such as 6 thousand years, because I don't think this would be enough time from the flood to how things are now, he changed my life. So no, creationism has strengthed my faith tenfold because I was no longer hoodwinked by secular science.
Scripture does back up scripture, secular science and scripture don't. God told us what happened it's yours or anybody's choice to bring in an outside source to it. If it wasn't a choice we would all believe the same. You choose to believe secular science is correct when it tells you age dates.
Don't forget I said the earth could have sat void. Let's say it really did sit void for a billion of our years. Just sitting without form, maybe a lump of rock, I don't know. Perhaps that gives an age of a billion years. That doesn't mean the creation itself is old. I believe from creation that it has only been thousands of years. How many thousands I am not putting a date on. I also have no issue with there being no gap and that secular science is also completely wrong on its dating of rocks. You won't read or consider a single thing I said anyway so I think this will be my last response here.
