Yes, there are several ways people can look at that verse. As I said ...
1. Could it mean time has no hold on God?
2. Could it mean each day of creation lasted 1,000 years?
3. Could it mean that for each day of creation God would allow 1,000 years of human history?
4. Could it mean the very unorthodox interpretation you asign to it? "A day is 1,000 years. We are very close to the beginning of the 14th day."

I'm sure there is even a 5th and 6th.

Some people take 3 as the explaination based upon this from the Gospel of Barnabas.

15:4 Consider, my children, what signify the words,

He finished them in six days. They mean this: that in

six thousand years the Lord will make an end of all

things, for a day is with him as a thousand years. And

he himself beareth witness unto me, saying: Behold

this day a day shall be as a thousand years.

Therefore, my children, in six days, that is in six

thousand years, shall all things be brought to an end.

......Now I understand the Gospel of Barnabas isn't in the bible and can't be relied upon, but Barnabas hung out with Paul. Was Barnabas correct? Who knows.
Currently I choose number 1.
Number 3 could be feasible. If Bishop Usher was correct with his date of creation being around 4004 BC...and us now being in 2,015 AD....we either passed the 6,000 year mark or are very close to it. If the earth was made 10,000 years ago then Barnabas was wrong.
I was taught that God is outside of time. So if He wants to look at the future He can and clearly does as a lot of the Bible is prophecy about events that have not happened. Also God can choose not to look. He forgets our sins and He remembers them no more. Jer 7:31 "That is something I never commanded them to do! Indeed, it never even entered my mind to command such a thing!" This is a surprise to me. As a chess player I would explore all the different moves. It would never occur to me that man would do something that God did not anticipate that they would do.

For me all the various creation theories are true because they look at Creation from different angles and perspectives. There is nothing wrong with Bishops Ushers book because he started the book 6,000 years ago and says nothing about what took place before this point in time. Jesus said on the third day he would rise and this also is true for the church. I believe the resurrection will be on the very beginning of the third day. This will be the end of the church age and the beginning of the 1000 year reign of Christ when we will rule and reign with Him for 1,000 years here on Earth.

1. Could it mean time has no hold on God?
Time could have no hold on God because time is change and decay. God does not change. He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Could it mean the very unorthodox interpretation you assign to it?
Nothing unorthodox about my view. It is basic dispensationalism and goes back to Darby. A widely held view by many people today. Esp in Bibles like Ryrie and Scofield.

The way I see it our future has already been created by God.

When you said.."Jesus said on the third day he would rise and this also is true for the church." I fail to see any scripture that says the Church will rise on day 3.....considering day 3 of Genesis already happened.

It's a gross biblical error to suggest man was made on day 3. Especially when the bible is very clear that it was day 6.
A forth grader reading the bible would come to the day 6 creation of man conclusion.
In fact I asked for a clear uderstanding of your doctrine...and you have provided me with nothing. I have even shown where the little rid-bits of what you presented was in contradiction to scripture.

Read the following:

4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,

We know that Adam's Earth was made on the 3rd Day, according to Gen 1:10. This verse is telling us that on this 3rd Day, the Lord also made other HeavenS, plural. Those are our heavens and earth and those of the 3rd Heaven of ll Cor 12:2.

5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

Plants, herbs, and Trees GREW on the 3rd Day. Gen 1:12

7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Adam, the first Human, was made on the 3rd Day, the SAME Day as the Big Bang of our Cosmos and the beginning of God's perfect 3rd Heaven. Amen? If you don't believe me read the next verses:

8 And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

See? The Trees, which were made on the 3rd Day, Gen 1:12 were made AFTER Adam was made on the 3rd Day, as I posted. Adam's creation in God's Image or when he was born again Spiritually in Christ happened on the 6th Day AFTER Eve was made on the 6th Day. Gen 2:22 Adam and Eve's Spiritual Creation comes AFTER Cain kills Abel and is shown in detail in Gen 5:1-2. Adam lived for 930 years AFTER he was born again. Amen?

Adam isn't even mentioned in day 3. If that's when he was made you would think God would have said so like He told us the plants were made.

Just for the record the bible doesn't teach those plants were in the garden. God said, let the earth sprout....On day three that happened. Gen 1:26, day 6 tells us Man was made.

The vegetation mentioned Gen 2:5 were plants that required cultivation. God had formed the plants from the ground, not from seeds which is what happens now. (cultivation) At the time of their creation there was no sun to shine on the plants. There was no rain as of yet because there was no sun to evaporate and draw up the waters into the clouds, in order to be let down again in showers of rain. There wasn't a man to till the ground until day 6 when Adam was made.

Sorry, but i hope by now you will see that Adam was made BEFORE the plants herbs and trees. Here is WHY the confusion comes in.

Genesis Chapter One is the entire History of the creation of the perfect 3rd Heaven and includes events at the end of the present 6th Day which cannot take place until Jesus returns at Armageddon. We live Today at Gen 1:27 because God is STILL creating Adam (mankind) in His Image, which is in Christ Spiritually. The 6th Day (Heb-yowm) is the last of God's periods of time when He is creating mankind in Christ.

This Day will NOT end until AFTER our Cosmos is burned at the end of the present 6th Day, the Day of Salvation. When this Day is over, God's work will be finished or brought to perfection and ALL of the Host of heaven will be safely in Heaven and God's rest (Sabbath) will begin on the 7th Day. Gen 2:1-3 God Bless you

By the third day I mean after 2000 year church age. The third day is the 1000 year reign of Christ, known as the Millennium.

"they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years." rev 20

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." Isa 9:6

"After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight." Hos 6:2

Luke 13:32 And He said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I reach My goal.'

Exodus 19:11 let them be ready for the third day, for on the third day the LORD will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

Esther 5:1 Now it came about on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes

John 2:1 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there;

It will be the SAME for ALL Christians on the coming 7th Day which is Eternity. Amen?
The seventh day and the third day are the same. 6000 years or six days have passed sense Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden. So this is now the beginning of the seventh day. Almost Two thousand years have passed from the day of Pentecost so this will be the third day for the Church. The Church age has many names. The time of the gentiles, the age of grace and so on.

The bible says Adam was made on day six. Right after the animals. Sorry to ruin your "theology" but it's what the bible says.
As I have pointed out your view of th creation of plants and Adam...and perhaps a "population" of people being created on day six is clearly wrong. When the bible is contradicted, I can know a theology is incorrect. Your theology as failed the test.

Read the following:

4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,

-57 What is the meaning of DAY here?

We know that Adam's Earth was made on the 3rd Day, according to Gen 1:10. This verse is telling us that on this 3rd Day, the Lord also made other HeavenS, plural. Those are our heavens and earth and those of the 3rd Heaven of ll Cor 12:2.

5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

-57....God planted plants. God didn't grow them from seeds. God made them as is. The seeds had not dropped and sprounted because there was no rain and noone to till them. PLANT THE SEEDS. Day 6 comes along and God makes Adam and Eve.

Plants, herbs, and Trees GREW on the 3rd Day. Gen 1:12

7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

-57 And this occurred on day 6. Just as presented in the bible. This verse alone blows the 3rd day creation of man right out of the water.

Adam, the first Human, was made on the 3rd Day, the SAME Day as the Big Bang of our Cosmos and the beginning of God's perfect 3rd Heaven. Amen? If you don't believe me read the next verses:

8 And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
9 And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

-57 Yes, Garden plants. This was a different event than day 3 creation of plants.

See? The Trees, which were made on the 3rd Day, Gen 1:12 were made AFTER Adam was made on the 3rd Day, as I posted. Adam's creation in God's Image or when he was born again Spiritually in Christ happened on the 6th Day AFTER Eve was made on the 6th Day. Gen 2:22 Adam and Eve's Spiritual Creation comes AFTER Cain kills Abel and is shown in detail in Gen 5:1-2. Adam lived for 930 years AFTER he was born again. Amen?

-57 The tree's in the garden were made after Adam. The tree's outside of the garden were made after Adam.

Really? Can you tell us WHEN Humans were given dominion or rule over EVERY living creature including viruses and Sharks? Or can you tell us WHEN all animals were made into vegetarians? Of course not since that is prophecy which will not take place until Jesus returns at the end of the present 6th Day. Gen 1:28-31 Amen?

False since Adam was "formed" from the dust of the ground on the 3rd Day BEFORE the plants, herbs and Trees GREW. Gen 2:4-9

Adam was "created" in God's Image, which is in Christ, on the 6th Day at the SAME time Eve was born again Spiritually in Christ. Gen 5:1-2 This is important since Eve was NOT made until the 6th Day. Gen 2:22 You have confused Adam's formation physically with his Creation Spiritually in Christ. The only contradiction is with the traditional religious view which does NOT agree with what is actually written. Amen?

57,
No. The trees were made the same Day Adam was made but AFTER Adam was made. Gen 1:12 AND Gen 2:8-9

Each of God's Days is NOT 24 hours since the word days comes from the Hebrew word Yowm which can mean 12 or 24 hours, a lifetime or an Eternity. A Day is a period of labor and God has ONLY 6 periods of labor when He is working to make His perfect Heaven and fill it with perfect mankind. Today, God continues to create sinners in Christ which means that we live today at Gen 1:27 because God is STILL creating Adam (mankind) in Christ. We will NOT advance to the prophecy of Gen 1:28-31 until AFTER Jesus returns. Amen?

"Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. 9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." Rev

The theory is that the dragon was cast down to the earth at the time of the dinosaurs. Satan was so angry with God that he decided that he would tamper with God's creation to get it to destroy itself. This is when the dinosaurs began to develop teeth and they would devour one another. This was also the break-up of the Pangea supercontinent. "If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other." Gal 5

When God created mammals over a 64 million year period of time (The sixth day) He put Adam and Eve in the Garden in Eden and they were to eat from the garden. Even today the doctor (dietitian) tells me I am to eat a "whole food plant based diet" maybe with the exception of some fish for the omega 3 and non fat yogurt for the calcum. That is the only exception I have been given to a otherwise plant based diet that they have me on. In fact the numbers on my tests are improving so the diet is showing good results. As is is I do not get much fish so I have been eating some flaxseed. I cook up about 15 beans and grains and about 10 vegetable all at once into a soup just about everyday.

Or can you tell us WHEN all animals were made into vegetarians? Of course not since that is prophecy which will not take place until Jesus returns at the end of the present 6th Day.
"They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain" I am getting old enough now that they are asking me to give up eating animals and start to live a more holy life before God as a result of that.

I wonder about this when I clean my vegetable to eat them. The theory is the best part the vitamins and minerals are right under the skin. The potatoes for example absorbs the minerals from the ground. Then if we remove all the skin we remove minerals from the potato that our body needs to grow and prosper. So sometimes I get thin skinned potatoes and scrub it down real good so can get all that good nutrition that I need for a strong healthy body and mind.

1. "Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. 9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."

This was also the break-up of the Pangea supercontinent. "If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other." Gal 5

3. When God created mammals over a 64 million year period of time (The sixth day) He put Adam and Eve in the Garden in Eden and they were to eat from the garden.

1. Sorry, but Angels do NOT marry nor are given in marriage according to Jesus in Mat 22:30. Angels are ministering Spirits and NOT flesh. Heb 1:14 The fallen angels are in chains under the darkness. Jde 1:6 The sons of God were prehistoric people who evolved from the common ancestor of Apes and they were NOT Human. (descendant of Adam), but they were made of flesh and could produce offspring with Humans. Gen 6:4 Amen?

2. Noah was the first Human (descendant of Adam) to walk on Planet Earth some 11k years ago. His grandsons married and produced today's Humans with the sons of God (prehistoric people) who were already here when Noah arrived. It was Adam's world which was totally destroyed in the Flood and NOT the present Earth. That is why we find the bones of people (sons of God) from Millions of years ago in Earth's History.

3. "They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain" is one of my favorite verses. It's prophecy of what will happen AFTER Jesus returns to this Earth and changes ALL creatures into Vegetarians, Gen 1:30 at the end of the present 6th Day. The fulfillment of this Prophecy is shown in Isaiah 11-1-7, a time in the Future when Lions eat straw like the Ox. Amen?

Some people do not want to believe what God says--they won't even believe it when He writes is down with His own finger and gives it as a commandment---

(Exo 20:8) Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
(Exo 20:9) Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
(Exo 20:10) But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
(Exo 20:11) For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

Then to even suggest that heaven is going to be an eternity of doing nothing is certainly not in the bible.


(Isa 66:22) For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.

(Isa 66:23) And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.


(Isa 2:4) And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
--

Plowing and pruning---Adam and Eve were put into the garden to take care of it---work.
---

(Gen 2:15) And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

And we will be doing the same.

(Isa 65:17) For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

(Isa 65:21) And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.

(Isa 65:22) They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

(Isa 65:23) They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
---
An eternity of not even the animals being able to do anything???? That is heaven??--An eternal Sabbath?--Don't think so.

mm:>>Some people do not want to believe what God says--they won't even believe it when He writes is down with His own finger and gives it as a commandment---

(Exo 20:8) Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

Amen. Nothing wrong with that.

mm:>>(Exo 20:9) Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

Amen.

mm:>>(Exo 20:10) But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

Amen. The perfect Law.

mm:>>(Exo 20:11) For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

Amen. That's God's Truth and the perfect Law which NO man can keep perfectly AND that is WHY Jesus had to die to pay for our sins, since He is the only man who ever kept the Law perfectly. The Law is our Schoolmaster to teach us that Humans CANNOT be perfect. Only Jesus could and He gave Himself for us. He loved us First BEFORE we loved Him. Amen?

mm:>>Then to even suggest that heaven is going to be an eternity of doing nothing is certainly not in the bible.

Amen. Eph 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.


(Isa 66:22) For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
(Isa 66:23) And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before Me, saith the LORD.


Amen. WHEN Jesus returns to rule on Planet Earth for a thousand years BEFORE we are taken to the New Heaven and New Earth AFTER our Earth is BURNED. ll Peter 3:10

mm:>>(Isa 2:4) And He shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
--
Plowing and pruning---Adam and Eve were put into the garden to take care of it---work.
---
Adam lived in the Garden to dress it and keep it, and NOT to plow and prune. Like ALL Humans, he failed to live up to the perfect Law of God. Amen?

mm:>>(Gen 2:15) And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

And we will be doing the same.

Amen. We will eat from the Tree of Life which is in the NEW Heaven. Rev 22:14

mm:>>(Isa 65:17) For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
(Isa 65:21) And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
(Isa 65:22) They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
Isa 65:23) They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
---
An eternity of not even the animals being able to do anything???? That is heaven??--An eternal Sabbath?--Don't think so.

You don't want Eternity to do good works? You would rather live on this lost and dying world forever? And watch your loved ones die forever? Not me. I prefer to live forever celebrating with Jesus, doing good works, perfect works, in the perfect THIRD Heaven which is NOT a temporal world but an Eternal Physical one. Amen?

Really? Can you tell us WHEN Humans were given dominion or rule over EVERY living creature including viruses and Sharks? Or can you tell us WHEN all animals were made into vegetarians? Of course not since that is prophecy which will not take place until Jesus returns at the end of the present 6th Day. Gen 1:28-31 Amen?

What makes you think you can....tell us WHEN Humans were given dominion or rule over EVERY living creature including viruses and Sharks?

False since Adam was "formed" from the dust of the ground on the 3rd Day BEFORE the plants, herbs and Trees GREW. Gen 2:4-9

Adam was "created" in God's Image, which is in Christ, on the 6th Day at the SAME time Eve was born again Spiritually in Christ. Gen 5:1-2 This is important since Eve was NOT made until the 6th Day. Gen 2:22 You have confused Adam's formation physically with his Creation Spiritually in Christ. The only contradiction is with the traditional religious view which does NOT agree with what is actually written. Amen?

The bible says Adam was formed on day 6 from the dust. It's not me who said it but the Bible that said it.
It apppears the traditional religious view agree's with scripture.

Does your bible say Adam was formed from the dust on day 6? Mine does. Perhaps you have a different translation.

57,
No. The trees were made the same Day Adam was made but AFTER Adam was made. Gen 1:12 AND Gen 2:8-9

Each of God's Days is NOT 24 hours since the word days comes from the Hebrew word Yowm which can mean 12 or 24 hours, a lifetime or an Eternity. A Day is a period of labor and God has ONLY 6 periods of labor when He is working to make His perfect Heaven and fill it with perfect mankind. Today, God continues to create sinners in Christ which means that we live today at Gen 1:27 because God is STILL creating Adam (mankind) in Christ. We will NOT advance to the prophecy of Gen 1:28-31 until AFTER Jesus returns. Amen?

You said...Yowm which can mean 12 or 24 hours....it can even mean a period of time such as its use in Gen 2.
Your problem is in explaining why...how....a 12 hour period of time had a morning and evening. Was the earth spinning faster?
