Mega-dittos!Missed you guys. It's good to be back.
Mega-dittos!
After time and prayer about your 6 Day teaching, I am not a supporter.How long is a Day/Age to God?
Jesus said, 2Co 6:2 (For He saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured (helped) thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
The day of salvation began when Jesus made the land creatures from the dust of the ground and Adam named them. Genesis 2:19 The last creature made was Eve. Genesis 2:22 The day of salvation ends when our Universe is burned 2 Peter 3:10 which is 1,000 years after Jesus returns at Armageddon. We know that Adam and Eve were created in God's Image (born again Spiritually) AFTER Cain killed Abel Genesis 5:1-2 which is today, on the present day of salvation, the 6th Day.
Can anyone tell us how long ago, in man's years, were the first common ancestors made? That's how long a Day is to God, when you add to the past figure, the time in the future when Jesus returns and reigns here for a thousand years. It's much more than ancient people thought. Amen?
Thank you very much for answering my questions of your 6 Days teaching. There are some physical and Scriptural inconsistencies that keep me from being in agreement.
Sorry, but no one can answer the above questions since the above events, at the end of the present 6th Day/Age, happen AFTER Jesus returns at Armageddon.
Meaning that your premise was faulty from the get-go.
Genesis 1:28-31 is prophecy of events FUTURE to our time. Amen?
Seems to me that you're misreading the vegetarian part. One could just as easily say that the plants were given to feed the herbivores, who in turn, feed the carnivores... Meaning that without the plants, everyone starves.
Besides, if you're going to take it that literally, note that God did not give "every" green herb for food -- some of them are in fact quite poisonous.

Amen, IF you only read this verse BUT with Scripture, you must have two or more witnesses to confirm your position.
In the case of all living creatures being changed into vegetarians, such an event has never happened, in the past.
The details of the fulfillment of this prophecy are found in Isaiah 11:7 when Bears are changed and Lions eat straw like the Ox. This is confirmed in Isa 65:25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock:
Except, as you just said, this prophecy has not been fulfilled and any time in the past. What did or didn't happen in the past has no impact on what might happen in the future.
None of which is contingent in any way on what "day" you claim (with no witnesses whatsoever) it is.
The changing of ALL creatures into vegetarians happens AFTER Jesus returns at the end of the present 6th Day. What YEC have been preaching by FAITH only, is True. In 6 of God's Days/Ages, He makes a perfect physical Heaven and fills it with His perfect children. Then He rests or ceases to create since His creation is finished, brought to perfection and present on the future 7th Day, which has NO ending, since it's Eternity.
That's the story which is actually written in Genesis. We came into this reality at the end of the present 6th Day, just before Jesus returns at the Rapture. I can hardly wait to fly up to meet Him. 1Th 4:17 How bout you?
The prophecy is still every bit as valid even without your creative interpretation of what "day" it is... it seems superfluous.
That's your opinion of Genesis, but you have no witnesses to its truth -- which I do believe is two short of the two you claim is required for such things...
No back and forth exchange needed, my friend. Live your faith. And let Peace and Love rule.Could you answer a couple of questions? In your view:
When, in the past did mankind have dominion over Angels 1Co 6:3 and every other living creature like mosquitoes as Genesis 1:28 plainly states?
When, in the past were ALL living creatures, including Lions and Bears, Isaiah 11:7 vegetarians as Genesis 1:30 plainly states.

Oh about the same time we switched from being vegetarians to omnivores....
Genesis 9:3
Man was strictly vegetarian before the flood, just as all the animals were.... And at the end all will go back to being vegetarians as was the original plan.....
A "timeline' that is repeated imagination and errors.23 Billion years ago, ...
Where in Scripture, science or history is a time before the first day given a date of 23 billion years ago, Aman777?
What happened to the 1st day of Genesis and its date, Aman777?
Where in Scripture, science or history is the 2nd day of Genesis given a date of 17 Billion years ago, Aman777?
On Day 3, Aman777 has the Big Bang where the universe is filled with an immensely hot and dense plasma of quarks and gluons that destroys everything inside it. There are not even atoms ! It takes 380,000 years before the universe cools enough for ions and electrons to combine to form neutral atoms. He has been told this physical fact several times.
Still misrepresents Genesis 1:21 which also has great sea-monsters and winged fowl which are not the proto-bacteria which were the Universal Common Ancestor. There were no birds or multi-celled animals 3.77 billion years ago. !
"21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that creepeth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged fowl after its kind; and God saw that it was good."
I have no disagreement with that since I post that it was some 180 million years from the big bang until the first stars lit up.
Then it was another 4.5 Billion years before our Solar System formed. Do you get tired of always losing?
This seems to be an under-estimate; from what I have read, I think that the first stars lit up about 500 million years after the big bang. Have you got a source for your statement?
This is definitely wrong. The big bang was 13.80 billion years ago. By your estimate the first stars lit up about 13.62 billion years ago. The oldest known material in the solar system is 4568 million years old, so the interval between the first stars and the origin of the solar system is about 9.05 billion years.
