in support of your post...in post 92 I had said:I don't---God does. He doesn't even need that long. You need to get to know your God. Not the ideas of men.
Psa 33:8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
Psa 33:9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
On the surface that's a good argument...but...there was the "let there be light" that could have supported plant growth.
For a 1000 years?---that was what is referred to as "invisible light" you can read about it. Invisible to man, not to God. That was needed only for 24 hours. I don't know what God you all worship, but mine made the earth and everything in it in 6 days. He is not some weak, pathetic, creature that takes Him 1000's of years to create something.
Psa 33:8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
Psa 33:9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
I agree with you...six days.
Genesis is silent on what the "let there be light" was.
Perhaps this was the light...Rev 21:23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, because the glory of God illuminates the city, and the Lamb is its lamp.
Science has studied the evidence and they have no comment one way or the other. They were claiming that someone stole the body of Jesus. We have the shroud of Turin and science has examined that. The American Journal of Medicine did an article by a forensic scientist. It is all very interesting but the scientific evidence is not conclusive one way or the other. One issue with miracles is that everything is restored to the way God created it to be. So there really is no evidence that there was ever an issue that needed a miracle.the biology book also says if you die, you don't come back to life on day 3
Oh yeah, that actually is Gerald Schroeder. He has a PhD from MIT. He is the only one that can produce any sort of a plausible Old Earth Creationism theory. He has an interesting way of looking at time. This has to do with physics and this is a very exact science. I studied more about the Physics of light when I was in college. I have not studied the physics of time as much as Schroeder has. He bases a lot of that on Einsteins theory of relativity. There is an observer effect, but mostly what we observe is based on our vantage point. If we are looking back or forward or some where in the middle.I find that argument neutral.

There is abundant overwhelming evidence for Theistic Evolution. Evidence that God clearly provides for us to examine. He wants us to know. He imprinted His creation with evidence of How He did what He did. Of course science does not tell us why. The Bible tells us why. Science tells us how God does what He does. My father was a doctor and I was disappointed that so often Science does NOT have answers and solution to lots of stuff. God ALWAYS has answers and solutions. This is why I became a Christian. The Bible goes way beyond what we could do with Just Science.
There is only 31 verses, so really there is no excuse for you to ignore what is written. Do you remember when we were kids and they had that magazine where there were 2 identical photos only there were things that was different about them. Read Genesis chapter one and then read Genesis chapter two and look at what is different. The whole story is in these three chapters. How difficult is it to read three chapters and really study them?Adam were placed in the garden on day 6.
Where did you get that from? The resurrection power of God is already at work in us. Everyone agrees on the resurrection, there is no issue there.Are you saying Jesus didn't raise from the dead?
In Genesis chapter three when the serpent deceived Eve into eating the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Calvanism and LDS base their religion on their understanding of the story of Eve and the Serpent. I can not help you with chapter three. We are working on chapter one and chapter 2 and the difference between the garden of Eden in chapter two and man being given dominion over the whole world in chapter one. In Rev 20:2 " He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years." We are VERY close to when this is going to happen. I can even give you a year 2036.If Theistic Evolution is true...when did mankind sin?

What you need to do is to study science and ancient history. I have studied both for over 50 years now. Just when do you think this 6th day was?
That is not Science. There is a scientific method to determine what is true and what is not true. There are lots of things that Science can not make a determination one way or the other. Science gets it right because if they do not get it right then people die. There are people who claim to represent science and they don't. Plenty of them, but that is NOT science.Science is only man's attempt at answers by testing the current world.
That is exactly where I get it from, scripture and 30 years worth of study of the Bible. The Bible says a day is 1,000 years.I have no idea where you get this eight-day from but certainly not from scripture.

I see what you are guilty of now because you just told on yourself. When we try to pass judgement on others we only end up passing judgement on ourselves.

"Beloved, do not let this one thing escape your notice: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day." (2Peter3:8)
"For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes". (Psalm 90:4)
You just go through saying Adam lived to be 930 years. Yet we are told ON THE DAY he ate from the tree of life he would die: "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” (Genesis2:17)
Adam should have lived 1,000 years but According to midrashim, Adam gave up 70 years of his life for the life of David. So he lived 930 years.
The Bible says a day is 1,000 years.
"Beloved, do not let this one thing escape your notice: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day." (2Peter3:8)

Evolution says nothing about life from nothing. There is overwelming evidence that the earth is billions of years old. That does not conflict with the Bible because we still find Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden 5990 years ago. Bishop Usher uses the date 4004 BC. There is no reason to question that date.Life from nothing
Yes exactly, true science and the Bible agree. There is no conflict between them. The Bible itself does contain paradigms.If it can not be repeated and thus verified---it is not science fact---it is theory.
The moon makes the earth a very unusual situation. It is because of the moon that we have seasons. It is because of the moon that our weather changes. The system is very fine tuned. I have friends that work in a factory that have to work within a millionth tolerance. Most everything in the universe works off of what they call the golden ratio. This maintains balance and precision. In math we have prime and composite numbers. Some numbers can not be generated from smaller numbers. This shows us that they were created in their present state. They can only be divided by themselves and one. We know that God is a Singularity. So we have all the proof and evidence that we need.However, God gave us the sun, moon and stars
