Do the SDA have different teachings regarding the creation?
John 1:3
English Standard Version
All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.
6 days of creation in Genesis ... our Lord the designer and creator of everything.
Day 3
“Then God said, ‘Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear’; and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good” (Genesis 1:9-10).
The Lords word is not a detailed science book.
Thanks for the info.
I don't believe the earth is young.
I believe it's pretty darn old!
About 4 billion year's worth.
Science is not always wrong you know.
You should not hate science.
If you want to believe the earth is only 6 thousand years old, you can.
Just don't say it's actual knowledge but that you prefer to believe the O.T. which was written 4,000 years ago
and was never meant to be a book of science.
The Bible tells us that God did things in real time, in real nature, historic fact... but it does not tell us "how to be God".
But science "Fact" such as when and where and how long - we can get from the Bible.
So for example Ex 20:11 and Gen 2:1-3 appeal to the very science facts about time , where and how long - that "belief" in evolution needs to have missing from the text.
Why settle for making false accusations when you could actually make a case from fact instead? What is the point in that? It is not a compelling form of discussion.
About the science argument. Science will not even begin to investigate the supernatural as a means of creation. So, right there we see the bias of science.
Aren't there also Christian scientists out there?
How do they view all these things about creation, the age of the earth, etc.?
