There was no 24 Hour Day during the creation process and Genesis 1 does not state that there was a 24 hour Day. Genesis 1 shows that God has 6 Creative Days, and 1 Day of Rest -- which will Never End.

If you think a Day to God is 24 hours, then Jesus must have lied to Adam, and Satan must have told him the Truth. At least, that's what your theories of a 24 hour Day of Creation, appear to support.
And where would that lie be (chapter and verse please)?
I believe the Bible. God did not lie to Moses in Exodus 20:11. He did not speak to him in strange allegorical speech. These were the Ten Commandments--meant to be taken very literal, where a day meant a day--24 hours. Either you believe it or you don't. What was Moses to believe? A lie?

I don't consider a 24 hour day a theory any longer. I consider it a fact.
The fasct is when Adam was told that he would surely DIE in the Day, that he disobeyed, it was BEFORE Eve was formed. Adam did not die physically, within 24 hours, and could not have died Spiritually, because he was not Created Spiritually until AFTER Eve was formed. Gen. 1:27 and Gen. 5:1-2 show that Adam was Created, at the SAME time when Eve was created.
All mankind is created as spiritual beings--Adam and Eve are no exceptions. Read 2Cor.5. Our bodies are but tabernacles, tents--temporary dwelling places until the resurrection takes place. We are as the angels--spirit beings. The only difference is that the angels do not have a body and we now have a temporary body which will someday be glorified.
"We wait for the redemption of our bodies."

Death means separation all the time when it is used in the Bible. When Adam sinned he was separated from God--spiritually. God sought him out. Adam hid. His sin separated him from God. To this end he had died. He was separated from God.

It was Eve that was tempted. It was Eve that took of the fruit, and then gave to Adam. When Adam ate of that same fruit, then Adam sinned; and then he "died spiritually." Obviously Eve had already been created. Your statement is absurd that Eve had not been made yet. She was right there along with Adam when he sinned.
The Un-Scriptural idea, that the 6 Creative Days and the 1 Day of Rest in Gen. 1 are 24 hour periods of Time, is refuted by Scripture. The 7th Day has no End.
God Bless
That the 7th day has no end is only your opinion, and that is all. That is not what the Bible. But you are entitled to your opinion even if it is not in the Bible. The entire concept of keeping holy the Sabbath Day is based on a 24 hour day. How convenient to make it unending--a concept no Jew ever thought of.

It is very evident that each day had to be a 24 hour day. Why?
1. Because it is the natural reading of the passage.
2. Because any other reading would imply that there would be death before Adam fell, but the Bible says that there was no death before Adam. Death came with the sin of Adam.
3. Simple biology requires 24 hour days. There are many examples that could be given. I will give you just one:

Genesis 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
--This was on the third day.

The sun, moon, and stars were created on the fourth day.
Fruit trees, and other plants need sunlight to grow.

Genesis 1:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

Now consider well. On the fifth day water animals were created. And on the sixth day (vs.24) land animals (including insects) and man were created. Way back on the third day fruit bearing trees were created, and not until the sixth day were bees created. If these were not 24 hour days, but longer days (thousand year days or longer) then all the grasses, fruit bearing trees, etc would be dead before creation ended. Insects are required for the fertilization of fruit trees, for the pollinization of flowers, and for so many other purposes that relates to plants. Plants cannot exist without insects and insects cannot exist without plants.
A plant can obviously exist three days, but not three thousand years or more. Biology does not permit such a scheme.

4. Over and over again: And the morning and the evening were the ___day. Whenever the Hebrew word YOM (day) is used in connection with a number it always means 24 hour day.

It is an account of the days of creation. It can't mean anything else but a 6 day 24 hour literal creation. And those are the facts.

Genesis 1 tells the complete story of the Creation of the Perfect Heaven. God completes His work in 6 Days, and Genesis 2 tells us of the 7th Day when God will Rest (Heb-Shabath-Cease to Create).

Scripture tells us that God rested from ALL His work, which He had Created and Made. Jesus tells us that the Father and He are still working, Today, and most Christians believe that God, the Holy Ghost is continuing His work, Today.

Please explain Why God had to stop His work for 24 hours, at the beginning, and violate the Truth of the 7th Day, which shows that God Rested from ALL of His work.

The answer is simple. God will Not Rest until mankind eats of the Tree of Life in Heaven. Rev. 22:2 which fulfills the prophecy of Gen. 1:29. If you doubt this, then show us of a Time in History, when mankind has been given to eat of EVERY TREE.

... Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto (Greek- up to the present time), and I work. John 5:17

Not necessarily. You just need to have more faith in Christ -- read and learn

John 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God. v3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made v4 IN HIM WAS LIFE; and the life was the light of men. v5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

Sorry

Sorry
When the Lord gives us a sane explanation for the creation of the world and his entire universe, there is no reason to put faith in silliness.
Is that the only rebuttal you have? Surely you can do better than that.

Then please explain How Adam could have DIED before he was Created Spiritually. Gen. 5: 8 shows that Adam lived for 930 years after he and Eve were Created, Spiritually.

In order to believe that Adam did Die within 24 hours, one must show that he died either Physically or Spiritually. Adam did not die, physically, within 24 hours, and I do not believe that you can show that he died Spiritually, within 24 hours.

In order for one to die Spiritually, one must first be Born Spiritually. Your assumption that Adam died Spiritually, would mean that God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, were Wrong, when Adam was made an Eternal, Spiritual, Being, but somehow God didn't know this when He created Adam, Spiritually -- only to be taken away from their hands by the old serpent? Sorry but, that's not possible.

NO one dies spiritually in Christ. Those who are born again spiritually is eternal.

And finally, contrary to your understanding above (in red color) please read and learn below...

1 Corin. 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. v46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

Define "rest."
What do you think the Lord meant when he said: "The Lord rested on the 7th day." Was God tired? Did he have to sit down in his lazy-boy and relax? Was He worn out from all the work he did. Did He go and take a nap? What do you think he meant when He said "rested?"

To "rest" simply meant that he "ceased" from his creative work. And that is what he did. His creation was finished. It is not that God needed any "rest" as we do. The Bible says: "That He has need of nothing." If God needed anything then God would not be God. He doesn't need rest. It means he ceased from his creative action. And that is all it means. And that is what He did about 6 to 10 thousand years ago.

To die means to be separated. Learn the Biblical meaning of death. When Adam died he was immediately separated from God. He no longer could walk and talk with God as he used to in the Garden of Eden. He died (was separated from God). That is what death is. God restored him. How?
We know from Scripture that:

Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

Genesis 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
--These coats of skins were not to keep them warm. They were the result of an animal that had to be killed; an animal whose blood had to be shed on their behalf that they might be restored to fellowship with God. They were dead. With this sacrifice, and their acceptance of it they were made alive. In the next chapter we find, that as a practice, Cain and Abel brought sacrifices before the Lord.
The Lord had instituted such after this first sacrifice.
In order for one to die Spiritually, one must first be Born Spiritually. Your speculation that Adam died Spiritually, would mean that God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, were Wrong, when Adam was made an Eternal, Spiritual, Being, but somehow God didn't know this when He created Adam, Spiritually -- only to be taken away from their hands by the old serpent? Sorry but, that's not possible.
I don't go by your theology. Sorry your theology is wrong.
Adam had died. They were spiritually separated from God. God himself sacrificed an animal on their behalf. Blood was shed. An atonement was made. They were restored to fellowship. Being born again doesn't even enter into this equation. Are you implying that God created children of the devil and his creation was not perfect? God created perfect children after his own image and likeness. They were not marred by a sin nature. They were the children of God. They sinned and needed to be restored back to a place of fellowship.
NO one dies spiritually in Christ. Those who are born again spiritually is eternal.
You die spiritually every time you sin. Every time you sin you are separated from God. Death is separation. Not until you confess your sin to God can you be restored to fellowship.

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

This is what the Scripture says...

Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from ALL his work which he had made. v 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from ALL his work which God CREATED and made.

But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto (Greek- up to the present time), and I work. John 5:17

... which means, we are still in the 6th day of God's creation since He continue to create even to this minute.

Understand: If God works as in toils then God is not God. It means that he has to use energy and burn calories and is in someway deficient of perfection. Your understanding of Scripture is lacking here.

First note that Christ said these words when he was on earth as perfect man and perfect God: the God-man.
Christ was man: He tired, was hungry, thirsted, felt pain, etc. Thus when Christ said "I work," he literally meant it. His work that he was referring to was his work on the earth as a man, that His Father had sent Him to do. He came to do the will "work" of the Father. But God (the Father) cannot work in that same sense. He is not deficient in any way. While on earth Christ was always God, but laid aside some of his divine attributes that he might, as man, endure the same things as man does.

The Bible does Not give the Earth's age in man's time. In God's time, Today is the 6th Day or Age of God's creation. Scripture shows that the Big Bang, which happened some 14 Billion years ago, in man's time, was on the 3rd Day.

This means that each of God's "Days" are some 5 Billion years in length. This means that the morning of the Creation was some 25-30 Billion years ago.

The age of this Earth is in complete accord with Scripture. Those who tell you differently only demonstate that they don't understand Scripture.

1. Among many theological gaps one of the most important is this: Your view clearly contradicts this very important theological truth:

Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

If the days were billions of years in length, I would assume that there had to be death before Adam in those days previous to Adam. But that is not what the Bible says. Death came when Adam sinned, and not a minute before. How do you account for this?

I have already pointed out to you biological inconsistencies. How do you account for those? If you have a thousand year day, (or however long) then you must also have a thousand year night (same as 24 hours--12 +12). Plants cannot exist without light--at least not most of them. How do you account for that?

Are we in the sixth day or the seventh day. If in the sixth day, how long will it last? Will the night correspondingly last the same amount of time?

Genesis 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

If we are presently in the sixth day why does God say that it is already past. The verb is in the past tense. In fact what does it really say?

Genesis 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

But later God said:
Genesis 6:5-6 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
7 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

Why was it very good after the sixth day, but very wicked at the sixth chapter, about two thousand years later? Obviously these were not billions of years that had passed.

How do you account for the Hebrew word "YOM" meaning "day" is never used with a numeral unless it means a 24 hour day?
You have your facts confused.

You totally ignored my explanation. God is not deficient as you describe Him. When Jesus was a man on earth, he in his humanity worked. Is this difficult for you to understand?

Sorry, but your understanding of the Scripture is very poor and slow in following the continuing discussion.

As I have cited before, God is still working and creating NEW HEAVENS and a NEW EARTH even to this date -- beyond this universe. So, what are you talking about Jesus humanity working here on this earth? You're way-way off the discussion. :laugh:

The best way that I can describe your conclusion "...which means..." in relation to your premise, is that it is non sequitor. It has nothing to do with the six days of creation. Re-examine Exodus 20:11
Re-examine Genesis chapter one.
You still haven't answered all the points that I have given you. I presume it is because you can't.

Jesus was the shining Light of the first 3 Days, believe it or not. The Brightness of his Glory provided the light which grew the first plants. Jesus is also the Light of Heaven, which has NO Sun nor Moon to shine in it. Rev 21:23 His glory is brighter than the noon day sun.

If we are presently in the sixth day why does God say that it is already past. The verb is in the past tense. In fact what does it really say?

Everything will be made very good, or Perfect, at the end of the present 6th Day. Trying to show that this is History and not prophecy, is a common mistake made by young earthers.

Your interpretation has some problems. Gen 1:29 says that mankind will eat of every tree. Revelation 22 shows that we will Not eat of the tree of Life until we get to Heaven. Gen 1:30 shows that EVERY animal will become Vegetarian. This phophecy will Not be fulfilled until Jesus returns to this Planet. Isaiah 11:7

The prophecy of the end of the 6th Day is Future. We will Not have dominion over every living thing, until then.

As I have posted before, the first chapter of the Bible tells the complete History of how God created the Perfect Heaven. God wrote our History, before the events are complete.

The Bible was written for the past, present, and future. It is relevant for today, and tomorrow. Written by the Supreme Intelligence, it's just too hard for poor, ignorants, unbelievers to comprehend. The only way they will understand is to pray for more wisdom and understanding.

WRONG AGAIN!!!YOM” is a period of Time which existed before the Sun, Moon, and Stars of the 4th Day. Therefore, it was not a 24 hrs/ day as you continue to assume.

Jesus provided the “DAY LIGHT” for the first 3 Days of Creation (Alpha) , just the same as He will provide the Light for Heaven (Omega), which has no Sun, nor Moon to shine in it.

Read and learn….

Revelation 21:23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

Do you believe in the literal resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The J.W.'s don't. They use the same method of interpretation that you do to say that he did not rise again--allegorization. It was just his spirit that arose from the dead they say. His body was just symbolic of something else. Of course you can make the Bible say anything you want with your allegorical method of interpretation. Or do you really believe it?

Sorry, but the JW's are not the issue here and your insinuations are unfounded, of course. Now, which is it that you don't understand in my post? Which one do you believe that I answered based on Scriptural "allegory"? I might be able to help you understand a little bit of it.

In fact, on the contrary, I believe I have provided you with literal interpretation of the Bible. See, therefore don't turn thing around on me. Either debate or run, but, please .... do not try project your own weaknesses on me. It's un-ethical. :laugh:

Do you have any Scripture to sustain your continued objection -- which is lacking in merit!~?

Most people don't know the difference between God's time and man's time. God has but 7 Days and Today is the 6th Day. At the end of this 6th Day, Heaven will be complete, and all believers will be there. When Heaven is brought to Perfection, God will rest for Eternity, the 7th Day, which has No end.

Man's time began on the 4th Day and depends on the movements of the Sun, Moon, and Stars. Since God is present, but also beyond this Universe, He is Not subject to the movements of our Stars. Man's time is temporal and will cease when this Universe is burned. God's time is Eternal.

With this evidence in mind, can you tell us what Day it is? Seems like an easy test, for sure. Just list your answer here:

God Bless
