[QUOTE="SavedByGrace3, post: 77104348, member: 3005"] What is difficult here is that God essentially created a record that was false.. that is, a lie. Is God lying to us in His creation? Of course I do not believe so. If the world looks 4 billion years old, then it probably is. If the universe is 14 billion years old, then there is no reason to believe that it is not. If the geology of the grand canyon looks like it was laid down over millions of years, it probably was. One must ask: If God created a universe that is essentially a bunch of lies laid out to intentionally deceive us, then what else is He deceiving us about? How do we know what is true and what is false? Is the gospel an elaborate scheme to deceive us? Is our faith in fact all based on lies? Of course I do not believe this. God is not a man that He should lie. It is impossible for Him to lie. Even in the creation. In the end, if God lies whether in word or work, we can have no faith. Our faith is based on Him, His nature, and His faithfulness. [B]Psalm 33:4 [/B] For the word of the LORD is right; and [B]all his works are done in truth[/B]. Psalms 85:11. [B]Truth shall spring out of the earth;[/B] and righteousness shall look down from heaven. Titus 1:2 2. In hope of eternal life, which [B]God, that cannot lie[/B], promised before the world began; [/QUOTE]
