Why is it so hard to believe that God created everything in six literal days? Moses even double confirms the point in Exodus 20:11. Exodus 20:11 says that Genesis is a LITERAL book. I mean I can understand why people would want to believe in Evolution and whatnot but you can still believe in evolution and what's accepted in modern science as canon but God (Who can do anything) could easily make everything in six days. So why is it so unbelievable? What's gotten you stuck? See to me if one believes the Bible to be infallible you'd think that they'd also believe in a literal six day creation. I mean after all the Bible says it was and to claim that it wasn't doesn't make the Bible infallible now does it?
Maybe ....
The Creation
1In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
Above .. the earth was formless and void but the earth did exist ... and this was before God created time for us ... so how long the earth & cosmos actually existed or when they were created really is not able to be determined by our measurement of time, although the scientific community does apply our time measurement to it.
The First Day - time created for us
3And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4And seeing that the light was good, God separated the light from the darkness. 5God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.”
And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
And by the way there are 7 days in creation ... not 6.
Mark 2
27 Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath
was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28Therefore, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
One either accepts that the bible is the infallible word of God or not. Not everything we want to know is in it .... what God wants us to know is in it. One either accepts God has the ability to protect His truth ... or not.
God cares about the human race and our relationship with Him and our relationships with one another and wants all to spend eternity with Him in a newly created perfect earth where there will be no sorrow whatsoever and for eternity. Who wouldn't want that?
ok ... so if one is an atheist, and there is no God ... then when they die ... there is nothing else for them ... on the other hand ... if God does exist and there is eternal life with Him and they refused to believe it ... then they will be destroyed ... so if God does not exist and one dies one turns to dust (all the "stupid" christians along with atheists) does it matter that we believed in God? No. If God does exist ... then it matters greatly.
I question who is being stupid here. Possibly of eternal life or not? One would think more would seriously consider this possibility ... some have of course ... Amen!
Yeah, so atheists call us stupid ... I don't really care ... do you?
