It seems like often you have to choose between science and religion. Why can't we utilize evolution/big bang as intelligent design by God?]
God told us how He did it. That is why.
? A second a billion years!?It makes more sense to think of time as relative. A second may be a billion years, a billion years a second. Even with our limited knowledge, we can theorize that the universe and time is not so black/white, but multidimensional.
If everything was made at the same time, we're talking about dinosaurs and people co-existing. Fossil fuels just magically created, despite us knowing how they're made. All the evolutionary research on life discarded.
You sure better discard evolutionary religion. Yes dinos lived at the same time as people. And fossil fuels would be expected if there was a flood that killed all life almost on the planet.
Well you should, you are not God.I really struggle with the omnipresence aspect and knowing all dimensions, past and future.
Therefore, God would have known we would have "bitten the Apple", so to speak.
And would have made a plan for salvation also before the world began...which He did.
People in the OT were saved by belief in Jesus also. They believed He would come, we believe He did come.Then to do the entire Old Testament, only to toss away all the laws for redemption in the New Testament. Is it fair that someone gets entire Hell because they lived in the Old Testament, versus Post-Jesus? That hardly seems fair based on the timeline.
