Did God Literally Create the Universe in 6 Days? | Ken Ham 

Very concerning people believe this rubbish

Blessings Brother🙏 Thank you for serving the Kingdom with your gifts and talents of research and teaching.

Mr. Ken Ham, I wish I could tell you how much your lessons mean to me. I was agnostic, lukewarm, agnostic, atheist, lukewarm (house built on sand) my entire life. Like many, I also fused historical science with the Bible or counted Genesis off as just a fable. This was all during one of my lukewarm charades, and felt I knew the right from the wrong biblical views. Then I came across your debate with Bill Nye, and thought you were mad, a "young earther" pfft, "let me watch Bill Nye destroy this guy", I spent an entire day watching your lessons, I could not stop and this was one of the first things that started me on a rock (which being the beginning is a darn good spot). I knew you wore the armor of God and understood, the second you start labeling what's a myth and what's not, of God's word, your foundation is doomed to collapse, which The Lord Jesus Christ has taught. Today I am shocked by how many actually go against a literal six day creation, knowing from my experience how dangerous that path is. Also I can say God has graced me with opening my heart to Jesus Christ and through him I can repent of my sins. The change in me is nothing I could ever have done myself, thank you guys and much love! ❤

What I found most interesting about Genesis 1 was that when Moses wrote about the time of creation, he knew about the Pangea, whereas it wasn’t recognised in geology until 1920. Considering he had only seen the Nile, and a small stretch of the Red Sea, as far as water is concerned, I think that in itself is a wonderful God given moment of wisdom that he knew about what he wrote, at that time of his life. I’m aware that there is some concern about the introduction of the Sun and the Moon on day 4, whereas it is generally recognised that the Sun was around long before the forming of Earth. I suggest, that if there had been anyone around in those times, they would not have seen anything through the thick fog which he acknowledges was engulfing the planet from day 2. The other wonderful fact that I find so confirming, is that the language of the writing of Genesis 1 can be literally translated into every tongue throughout the world today. I like to start to find ways of finding common agreement with any point of discussion and work from that. The most wonderful thing is that He did it, and it all starts the beautiful story of introducing Jesus to us, and every book throughout the Bible just adds to that. He is coming soon, and everyday is a step closer to that wonderful realisation. Hallelujah 😍

I would never fault a person for asking questions about doctrine, especially something so big and described with such simple, short terms like how the world and universe was created. The thing is, precepts are built on precepts. It is often easier to understand on deeper levels when you have the basics firmly understood. There is a lifetime of learning about ourselves, our own personalities, our person struggles, our weaknesses. Getting caught up in certain topics that really don’t effect our journey to repentance wouldn’t seem to be a high priority. There is a reason God didn’t go into much detail on the how, he instructed prophets to teach about the why. And even to say, teach nothing but repentance, for it is the only thing keeping you through the gates of salvation. Happy Easter brothers and sisters:)

6 days just as God said . If God did it all then he would have had to do it all in six days or the animal's would not have had food to eat. Grass and all eatables fiirst then man and animals after.. logical . Smart God thank you Jesus.

I think God could have done it in one day if He had wanted to!!!

With God a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years like a day

The Creation Story from Genesis 1. There are three main thoughts on Genesis 1 and the Six Days of Creation. These are a short list, just three... 1) It was Six 24-Hour days that the Earth and Heavens were created. There are variations that it was only the Earth or only from the time of Adam was a total of six days. 2) It was Six 'Thousand Years' days (the thousand years are more or less, but about a thousand years per day). 3) The Gap. In Genesis 1:1 God had created the Heavens and the Earth. That could have been millions or billions of years ago. In verse 2, God replenished the Earth with life. For those that study this - it is necessary that those that have a view on this they have read The Holy Bible over and over. They have read, studied, and meditated on God's Word. If they haven't done this part, then it would be too difficult for them to understand. That is what I believe is true. Of course, God has to help. It is important to consider the Angels. The Angels were also created by God. The Angels were apparently given FREE WILL. When some of them went against God... that was bad for them because they had become FALLEN ANGELS. A note on FREE WILL. I have often heard theologians and scholars say that we all have a free will, but that is not exactly true. Adam had a FREE WILL, but he fell. We are from Adam and we are already in a bad position. We may think we have FREE WILL, but we actually don't, but a fallen position where we need help from GOD. Enough said there. In Job 38, The Lord tells Job that the Sons of God (Angels) shouted for joy when the foundations were fastened... Job 38:4-7 The Sons of God Shouted 4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. 5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? 6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; 7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? When the foundations of the laid - when was that: what day? Also, when God created The Earth did he make it void first? Or was the Earth already existing as a void? In Isaiah 45:18 he created it not in vain or void... Isaiah 45:18 Not Created in Vain or Void 18 For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord; and there is none else. How long did it take to create the earth from this passage in Isaiah? When did the Fall of Angels occur which includes Satan? When the Serpent was in the garden Satan was already fallen. So when did the fall occur? Also, Neanderthal and Cro-Magnons don't seem to fit. When God made Adam, Adam was intelligent already. Otherwise, if God made man in his own image and if you believe in Evolution, what did God look like? Did he have a Neanderthal appearance, then did he also change in appearance after that? Then there is the dinosaur question. Reading Genesis 1 - I don't see any dinosaurs there. There may have been dinosaur-like creatures in the seas, but not on the land. I never saw where Adam met T-Rex or Triceratops. Also concerning the dinosaurs and science - there were three periods: The Triassic; the Jurassic; and the Cretaceous Period. The Cretaceous Period is when T-Rex and Triceratops were existing. Science has fossils and it is difficult to dispute. Now the fall of Satan is mentioned in Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 - and you have to understand that in the Prophets there are oftentimes multiple applications. Again I say, those that have not spent time reading, studying, and meditating on God's Word; and have not been through the complete Holy Bible over and over... this might be too much to handle. To those that have, then please listen to what I will say. In Isaiah 14 - The Bright Morning Star or Lucifer rebelled against God. In this passage it speaks of The King of Babylon and beyond. This passage also speaks of The Beast that will be at his height in Revelation. Isaiah 14:12-15 Son of The Morning - Similar to Day Star 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. 15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. The Lord Jesus is called The Day Star by Simon Peter, and he is called The Bright and Morning Star in Revelation by The Lord himself... 2Peter 1:19-21 The Day Star - and The Holy Ghost Inspiring Prophets 19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. In Revelation 22:16 The Bright and Morning Star 16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. The Enemy is a deceiver and tries to act like he's The Lord Jesus. His title as Son of The Morning is close to Day Star and Bright and Morning Star. So for the three main thoughts of creation I have one more passage in the book of The Prophet Jeremiah 4... Jeremiah 4:23-26 The Pre-Adam Days God Destroyed the Earth 23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. 24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce anger. With this passage from Jeremiah it is easier to see the passages from Isaiah and Ezekiel... Ezekiel 28:11-18 11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, 12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. 13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. 14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. 15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. 16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. 17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. 18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. This passage speaks of The King of Tyrus, but it also speaks of the Anointed Cherub that fell. This will also be applicable in the 70th Week. When The Anointed Cherub was in Eden, The Garden of God - that was before Adam was in the Garden of Eden. This is either a different garden or the same garden, but a little different in Adam's time. Again, when did this occur? Walking in the Garden of God. Now, as in Isaiah 14 this individual had a kingdom. This one here mentions that he had sanctuaries. Hmm. He was perfect in all his ways... until iniquity was found. Pride found its way. The devil and pride are closely related. Therefore, I have to go with the Gap. Most modern scholars will go with the Creation of the Heavens and Earth in Six Days, and different scholars vary in that theology. I am in the minority here, but that's okay with me. My reading, studying, meditations, and understanding of God's Word has me to believe that there was a gap in verse 1 and verse 2 in Genesis chapter 1. Salvation is not based on what a person believes on in Genesis 1:1,2 - and I prefer not to argue too deeply on the matter. I will end it here. Praise The Lord!

The devil doesn’t like this video, look how much it’s being attacked by all these fallacious one-liners.

Of course God created the universe all therein in six days. Exodus 20:11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. God did not rest for millions or billions of years on day seven or the sabbath day which He set as an example for man to rest one literal 24 hr day out of seven literal 24 hr days.

When? 5000 years after Yellow and Hindus valley civilizations?,😂

They say Day because they were simple, they hadn’t much vocabulary. They hadn’t any intellect

So you believe that the universe was created in six days? You are nuts!! In the beginning refers to when the whole universe was created including the earth, the six days was the preparation of the earth for men took place, and we were given dominion over the animals, which surely did not include dinosaurs!!!

The facts? Should be interesting.

And Father Christmas comes down your chimney each year.

Our 24 hours day, as well as our mornings and evenings, are set by the rotation of the Earth in relation to the Sun. Since Sun and Moon only appeared on the 4th day, what clock exactly do you use on the first morning? And on the next one? Then, time is not fixed, it depends on gravity, which depends on... And so on. Wanting to stick to a literal 24 hours day for events that completely escape our understanding of the laws of physics governing them, is a futile exercise. The REAL point, the one that IS actually important, is "In the beginning God created". Don't lose the forest while arguing about the perceived color of a leaf...

Keep up the good work

There has never been an actual creation,in fact there has never been an actual human being us.we are not human.all this is the illusion.the infinites amusement park which is always incarnating in to by said infinite,

No..

Personally, I've never heard anyone dispute the word "day" in Genesis as meaning anything but a 24-hour time span, but apparently it's a big enough issue elsewhere, as this video depicts. I just find it unusual that it's contentious to begin with, as the scripture is quite plain, as the context _is_ there.

Amen Ken, if a day is like 1000 years to us then I'm 65,000 years old., that's really old, I need to go and dig my grave now.

Right you are Ken. 🤭😁😅🤣😂 Oh pleeez!! 😏🙄

Thank you for your honesty.

All a show.there has never been an actual anything

Yes! To reject the 6 literal days is problematic for Christians. How did death enter the world without the original sin of Adam and Eve?! Not to mention Jesus referenced Creation as well...

Answer in one word. YES.

Many people think the word "yom" means the whole period of creation in Gen 2:4. I think it means ordinary day referring back to Gen 1:1,2. There was a creation day before the Almighty Creator said, "It will be light". There is creation day followed by creation week.

Love this! Thank you Ken, praise the Lord!!!

Does Ken ham have a talk on whether the earth is globe or flat?...

10:05 There actually is a place in Genesis where it applies. God speaking to Adam in Genesis 2:17, and Adam died the same millennium that he disobeyed.

He’s just moving goalposts. Modifying the answers to fit the question.

Thanks, I love u guys!

How about dinosaurs million years ago? How Adam and eve 156 thousand years ago? How God created 6 days before dinosaurs died?

As a Muslim, it's important to clarify the interpretation of these verses to understand that Allah created the heavens and the earth in six days, not eight. The verses in question come from Surah Fussilat (Surah 41:9-12): 1. **Surah 41:9** states that Allah created the earth in two days. 2. **Surah 41:10** mentions that the earth's provisions, mountains, and blessings were made in four days. 3. **Surah 41:11-12** then describes the creation of the heavens in two days. Here is the explanation: 1. **Creation of Earth (2 days)**: "Say, 'Do you indeed disbelieve in He who created the earth in two days...' (41:9)" 2. **Provisions and Mountains (4 days)**: "And He placed on the earth firmly set mountains over its surface, and He blessed it and determined therein its [creatures'] sustenance in four days without distinction..." (41:10) 3. **Creation of Heavens (2 days)**: "Then He directed Himself to the heaven while it was smoke and said to it and to the earth, 'Come [into being], willingly or by compulsion.' They said, 'We have come willingly.' And He completed them as seven heavens within two days and inspired in each heaven its command..." (41:11-12) The key point is the interpretation of the phrase "four days" in verse 41:10. This "four days" includes the initial two days mentioned in 41:9. Therefore, it does not add additional days but rather describes the continuation and completion of creation on earth, which includes the initial two days plus two more days for provisions and mountains, making it a total of four days for the earth. So, the correct understanding is: - **2 days** for the creation of the earth. - **4 days** for completing the earth's provisions and mountains (including the initial 2 days). - **2 days** for the creation of the heavens. The total is thus 6 days, as consistently stated in other parts of the Quran. The confusion arises from misunderstanding the overlap and continuation described in the verses.

When did God create water?

Gere

No.

Just me, but it's hard to accept that the moral intent of the Bible was to teach people science. How would you feel if the Bible opened with in the Beginning was a cloud of gases which superheated and drew down all matter into a tiny ball which exploded and spread throughout space for 13.8 billion years. If true, would such wording lead ancient men and the less intelligent to be more moral? I don't know, but have no conflict with a God could create this universe in 6 God days and at the same time, that be 13.8 billion human days. And I don't see the point of worrying over it. What difference to your soul. There is an evil human reason I can see for fighting against science. If your desire is to control other humans by you having greater religious knowledge than them, then I can see where you wouldn't like science because it could interfere with your desire to rule over others in this world.

No

Total nonsense of course 😅

thanks

I do find it interesting that the Holy Spirit had Moses write it, And the evening and morning were the ??? day. (Seems more like 12 hours). Not the evening and the evening which seems more like 24 hours. People still don't comprehend evening was the start of a new day in those times like midnight is to us now.

Thanks for the video, how do we defend against criticism that the 24 hour day didn’t exist until the sun was created? I’m assuming it’s since the earth would still take 24 hours to spin in place regardless of if there was a sun or not (meaning it’s still all 24 hour days), but I wanted to see if there was a better scriptural explanation of how time was kept outside of having the sun and stars

usually a question, of this type demonstrates unbelief......sadly....

I wish Ken would debate Hank Hanegraaff, like Ken he does not believe in TE, but he does not believe in a young Earth...

The only fact we should look at is the fact that religious assertions are not facts

***you just forgot to look into the facts, but truth will make you free.***

brilliant

Imagine if we had a world where people read. I feel him. Thanks for your work.

Why oh why do so many really sharp [schorally] men give biblical & scientific reasons for Noah's flood and the begining of God's creation, yet are hard core in their belief that God/Jesus are a God-man, or God or God the Son??? I just can't wrap my head around this unbiblical and fruitless thinking. Have they overlooked Jn 3:16? Do they just disregard it, was God lying? God the son is found nowhere in the Bible!

I thought the heavens and earth were created before the days?

What do you think God was trying to tell us? When you try to squeeze in theories of evolution etc. Into the text it honestly corrupts the plain meaning of what God said. Amazing. Wrong assumptions lead to wrong conclusions.

Predetermined meaning of the Hebrew word DAY (YOM) based on how we in today’s culture understand what day means to us ,as opposed to how a culture thousands of years ago understood what different uses (day) meant then , needs some work.

Short answer = no 2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

The "day cultists" people would rather have people believe in the 6 literal days of creation, than believe in the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ!

Thy was no days back please we don't actually know

Did the fight and rebellion in heaven happen within the 24 hours? Like he created all the angels and satans fall all happen in the same day?

The principal of God visiting man at a specific period of time warrants a hermeneutical effort of interpretation. The word Yom is part of that effort and needs to be taken seriously to understand scripture. This video does an excellent job of doing that.

So then, the three nights and three days that Jesus was in the tomb were three 24-hour days.

Please, please tell me, where in the Holy Writ is the term God-man? Or God the Son??!!

In King James Bible with names split up in syllables and emphasis mark ( apostrophe ) I-sa'iah is pronounced eye - ZAY - eyeyah or eye- ZAY- yeah The ' sa ' has the emphasis.

It say in genesis in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth ..and the earth was void .before he created day 1

SWEET!!!😀😀👍

We have all been lied to

How could there be days before the sun was made?

Yom: Time period of unspecified length

The number 7 does have an astronomic origin, which recurs across many cultures. From a geocentric perspective (the common assumption until just a few hundred years ago) there are 7 heavenly bodies, visible to the naked eye, which move independently of the fixed stars: Sun and Moon, then Mercury Venus Mars Jupiter Saturn. They were associated with the major pagan gods, and the ancients named the days of the week for them. The English names for the days are from the Germanic names for the Roman gods, hence Thor's Day instead of Jove's Day.

The two creation narratives in Genesis differ in their emphasis, style, and details. 1. Order of Creation: • In the first narrative (Genesis 1), the creation unfolds in a structured, six-day process. God creates light, sky, land, plants, celestial bodies, sea creatures, animals, and finally, humans (male and female) on the sixth day. • In the second narrative (Genesis 2), there’s a focus on the creation of humans. Man is formed from dust, and woman is created from the rib of the man. The order of creation is humans, then plants, and finally animals. 2. Theology and Names of God: • The first narrative uses the term “Elohim” for God, emphasizing His power and transcendence. • The second narrative predominantly uses the term “Yahweh” (often translated as LORD), highlighting a more personal and relational aspect of God. 3. Creation of Humans: • In Genesis 1, both male and female are created simultaneously on the sixth day. • In Genesis 2, Adam (man) is created first, and then Eve (woman) is created from Adam’s rib. 4. Purpose of Creation: • Genesis 1 emphasizes God’s sovereignty over creation and humanity’s role in stewardship. • Genesis 2 focuses on the intimate relationship between God and humanity, highlighting companionship. These differences have led scholars to interpret these narratives in various ways, from seeing them as complementary perspectives to representing different traditions woven together in the biblical text.

God is the Primary instigator and focus of each day in Genesis 1. Contextually each day and its length surrounds God’s presence and His work-even after the sun, moon, and stars are created on day 4 to govern the day-night cycle. Here I will make my case: Yom, when first described in the text, is defined by the amount of time light is focused on the earth in relation to God’s work. We know this because light is (1) spoken into existence by God, and (2) it comes from God. It is only when God is done speaking the light into being and defining what a day is from the night that God stops working and night falls in the earth. Why? Because He is done working for the day. So the question is, how long did it take God to say, “Let there be light?” Have light come into being, and then define day from night? Did it take 30 seconds, 2 minutes, 12 hours, 24 hours, a year, millions of years? The text does not say, and it doesn’t actually have to give a time period, because the scientific definition of hours is not the focal point of the text. God and what He has done is. The text then says there was evening and there was morning, one day. But is the statement concerning “one day” about the amount of time God spent working, or is it including the night too? There is a clue. Genesis 2:1-2:3 tells us that on day 7 God rested, yet did you ever notice that day 7 does not end? There is no evening, and that is because God did not leave His rest, and the light emanating from Him remained too. Thus, that day has never and will never end as long as God does not depart from His rest-a rest we are hoping to enter into I might add. So contextually, a day is defined as the amount of time God is present. And this could be any length of time. And if one wants to throw out this text based definition, why does a full day really need to be 24 hours, if you add the night? Do you not have faith that God can do work in seconds, days, or over the course of thousands or millions of years, as He sees fit? It is sad that we destroy each other over unwritten numbers-especially when we have scientific examples on earth that show us that a day-night cycle can be longer than 24 hours. In Alaska, for example, there are seasons where light does not stop shining for months, and then when the sun does set it doesn’t rise for months. Does this mean that one day is 6 or 12 months long, if you add the night? For practicality’s sake, we say “no” because we don’t want to cause problems with our calendar, and how do you deal with the clocks? But if it takes 6 months for the sun to set on a portion of the earth before there is evening, and then we add 6 months of night, then in relationship to the text-regardless of how yom is defined-was this not one day in Alaska? Genesis 1 would imply it is, if we want to get literal. Do not get me wrong here. This is not to say that God did not or could not create anything or everything in a 12 or 24 hour period. Of course He could and He may have, in accordance with His Will. Indeed, to say that is not possible would be wrong too. It’s just like saying that God could not take longer or shorter times to do His work as He desired, and, honestly, once the sun, moon and stars were established as governors it only makes sense that God would then use them as He designed them to be used, and He may have worked within such arbitrary time frames. Still, none of us were there, and this is where we need to respectfully accept that not everyone has faith enough to accept specific scientific number attached to the term yom in Genesis 1, thousands of years after it was written. It’s okay to learn and grow and come to understand what God is trying to teach us over time. Finally, once again, we need to remember the context of each day primarily revolves around God and His work-not the sun, stars, and moon-and that actually makes sense. Why? Because in ancient times the sun and moon were worshipped as gods in Egypt and to have life and creation focused on them would have theologically defeated the purpose of the text. The unfaithful Israelites who wanted to return to Egypt while being led from slavery would have swooned with idol worship if the text was not carefully to place God and His light first. This is just another reason not to be blinded by time when it comes to this text. In conclusion, God is supposed to be the center focus of every moment and day of our lives-not the events of the day or how long it takes for a day to transpire. The Law is a testimony to that truth, and so is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who prayed and made God the Father as the center focus of His life and ministry. Let’s not let science dictate what we believe-especially when scientific numbers can change and it is clear that Genesis 1-2:3 is not meant to be a science textbook.

Of course day is used most around words like evening and morning because humans wrote the Bible and we use day as a 24 hour time period. That evidence is a little biased

The Bible only means whatever you want it to mean.

ThNk you for teaching common sense to people who don’t understand common sense! 😇🙏🇦🇺

The Mesopotamians not the Bible gave us the week.

Any chance to get all those videos in English? God bless your ministry

Thanks for sticking with the facts😊 Todah rabah

Well, if God created birds and sea animals on day five, then land animals on day six (including humans) then where do Dinosaurs play into effect? Were humans co-existing with dinosaurs or how old are dinosaurs exactly? (If we go by this videos logic, God created everything in 6 days, meaning each day is 24hrs).

This is so Awesome! Thank You, Lord for the truth!

Great explanation Ken, from a Lutheran in Australia, amazing you still have the Australian accent. Love ya. I wish one day you’ll come to Australia so I can see you in person.

I believe that when God speaks He speaks at mutual levels from mutual points of view. My favorite theory on creation is that the universe was created in six days and 10000,000s years. If God’s point of view traveled with the event horizon of creation it would’ve taken him six days while on earth, it would’ve taken much longer

This makes sense if the sun wasnt added until the 4th day then there wasnt the same exact 24 hour earth rotation with day and night since there wasnt no differentiation between light n dark it was a concept of day as time that is a new figure of speech n concept we confuse with our current present day terms

Ken Ham truely respect you and your work, I disagree. You said it, in context. No one ever assumes that Eve got pregnant 3 times and had three sons in a 24 hour period. Yet it says she had 3 sons after she ate the fruit. None of your arguments do you any good here. Now let us look at Genesis, I am using Young's Literal Translation. Genesis 1:21 And God prepareth the great monsters, and every living creature that is creeping, which the waters have teemed with, after their kind, and every fowl with wing, after its kind, and God seeth that [it is] good. ************** Now notice the literal meaning is "Great Monsters" in other versions it says Whales. I think they had been scoffed at by people saying there are no such thing as dragons and so they chose their words wisely On day Next day he clearly makes mammals. So he makes dinosaurs one day and 24 hours later he makes mammals? Why are you assuming that the Dinosours and mamels were made fully adult? 11 And God saith, `Let the earth yield tender grass, herb sowing seed, fruit-tree (whose seed [is] in itself) making fruit after its kind, on the earth:' and it is so. Have you ever seen a plant come up in less than 24 hours. Again it makes no sense in context to assume that it is 24 hours. Same with the oceans have you ever seen fully developed full grown fish come up in one day. In context it does not make sense that it is 24 hours.

Genesis 1:1 is not part of the 6 days. The 6 days are about Jehovah preparing the earth made in the beginning for life. Actually evening is when the night begins and morning is when the night ends so it's more accurate to say that evening and morning is a night. Evening and morning could be symbolic. The angels could be in the 'dark' as to what Jehovah was creating until the completion of his work on that "day"! Incidentally God's creative rest day may end after the son hands the kingdom back to his father at the end of his 1000 year reign. (Hebrew's 4:6"Therefore, since it remains for some to enter into it")(1Corinthians 15:24 "Next, the end, when he hands over the Kingdom to his God and Father")

Young earth and flood geology is not in the bible. It is a lack of wisdom about the ancient texts I.e. a lack of biblical scholarship and a neclect of making a right judgment of the earth and the universe which God demands from us...... 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. Romans 1: 19-20......By faith we understand that the worlds were set in order at God's command, so that the visible has its origin in the invisible. Hebrews 11:3. Worlds can be translated also as the ages were put into order. God had long ages before Adam and Eve came on the scene and he put it into order little by little not by twinkling of the eye miracles as they say. That is nothing but chasing away potential believers who have some understanding and will never believe in a mature creation with an apparent age things that have never happened. But in a miraculous creation just 6000 yrears ago it would be so. And you are responsible to prevent them to come to Christ and get saved!

Perspective: Sarah gives Hagar to Abraham. The origin of the story is that Lilith, Adam's wife, gives Eve to Adam, the Christ, when he begins his work of the salvation of the kingdom of Eve's Shining One (snake) David, the Morning Star. I’m inclined to believe that David (Yahweh) is saving those behind the gates of hell. Those who have lost hope. Light and vegetation are created before the sun and moon because the story is about the new heaven and new earth. Yahweh is the light and Adam, the Christ, is the lamp. Your creation story is when, in the beginning, Adam found you in a wasteland, (Gen 1:2 NABO), empty, and void of understanding, your having become corrupted by sin, and he shielded you as the apple of his eye. (Deu 32:10 NABO) Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. (Mat 25:34 NABO) The earth was barren, with no shrub of the field and, as yet, no man to till the soil. Adam tilled the soil and prepared the Garden of Eden, a promised land, a heavenly home, a new heaven and new earth, according to the plan of his Father, and then he settled east of Eden and has tilled and cultivated the earth ever since. I am with you always, until the end of the age. (Mat 28:20 NAB)

Literally: A thousand years is like a day and a day is like a thousand years to God.

Of course not, gods were created by humans.

I'm an atheist, and I agreed with just about every point he made. "Sophisticated" Christians and Jews today keep trying to deny the plain meaning of the Bible, because they know that taking the Bible literally makes it look ridiculous. Taking the Bible literally makes it look like it was written by people who knew nothing about modern science, and educated people don't want to look stupid, so sophisticated Christians and Jews today say, "Oh, it was allegorical, it was never meant to be taken literally." Some even claim that it actu

Facts! 🤣😂🤣😂🤪😂🤣😂🤪

There was a literal 6 day creation in Genesis chapter 1 but this has to be considered with all the rest of scripture to understand what actually happened and age of the earth. We cannot ignore Jeremiah 4: 23-28 KJV that describes a pre man universal flood destruction of earth that left earth dead formless and void with the lights out in the universe. Also 2 Peter 3: 5-7 not describing Noah’s flood in which earth was still livable atmosphere with sunlight and an ark with people and animals that lived, but was an ancient universal flood destruction of earth and space the Jeremiah passage also described for which most of the church is still willingly ignorant of. Notice light and darkness separated day 1 and sun moon and stars not created till day 4. Notice seed already in the earth. Notice command to replenish. Isiah 45:18 God creates perfect, he does not create darkness. Isiah 14: 12-17 that Lucifer had a throne on the earth he wanted to ascend above height of the clouds, that is on this Earth pre adam. Satan already fallen before this 6 day creation because he was already evil in deceiving Eve. I could go on but space limited. In short earth is ancient, there was sin surrounding Lucifer fall, God was angry and destroyed the place but didn’t make a full end, and Genesis 1:2 picks up a restoration of earth and universe and marks it with a seventh day and puts man in charge where Lucifer use to rule. The Bible matches perfectly with science and archeology if we consider all it says and not an idea off one passage and ignoring the rest of what scripture says about it.

thanks

I watch these video and try to understand, but I still have so many questions. Please where did God place the Theia impact, and I see that scientists might have found Theia chunks down near the Earth's core. Then Chicxulub impact - This took out the dinosaurs and is complete with fossil record, soot and Iridium layers. Please can someone help here? Surely God would not create a false record?

Merci

Those who refuse to accept the fact that God created this world for habitation in six literal days do so because they are in complete rebellion against Him and deny His ability to create with just the spoken word. They don't want to admit God is all powerful, and that they owe every second of their very life to Him. He sustains us and keeps our bodies breathing every moment until under normal circumstances so that we might turn to Him and live. They also refuse to accept the fact that the rest of the universe existed BEFORE Adam & Eve were brought to life and walked this planet in Eden. God asked Job (in 38:5-8) where was he when He created the worlds, especially this one, when it was hung on nothingness & the morning stars [the angelic host] sang together, and all the sons of God [other Adam-like beings on other worlds] shouted for joy for all His marvelous works which He had done.

I totally believe in the Bible and the creation account in it. I have a problem with accepting that creation days where 24 hours. I believe the there is one day of creation that is still running in modern times. Of the first 6 days there is the statement “and the evening and the morning are” then the day number but nowhere is this used for the seventh day. Day seven started after the creation of Eve. Day seven hasn’t ended yet. I believe there will be an infinite number of periods of time called “days” when day seven ends day 8 will start, the days 9,10,11… At this time day seven is coming close to it’s end. Day seven is already more than 6000 years. I believe that the one thousand years of Gods Kingdom rule is about to start. So it looks to me like day seven will be 7000 years because it may be that it will end after the one thousand years Kingdom period. Day seven is a sacred day. During day seven, the important issue of who rules will be settled. I believe The answer will be God rules. At the end of day seven it could be said, “ the evening and the morning where the seventh day”. Then day 8 will start.

Thank you, Ken!!!! Thank you! Thank you!!!

The text does not imply 6, 24h days

If Genesis is to be literally interpreted, as Ken Ham wrongly believes, then the most obvious question would be this: If God did not create the sun and the stars until day four, as he wrongly believes, then where did God get the light to separate the night and the day in order to create the literal mornings for days 1, 2, and 3. Ken Ham’s faulty reasoning, which is void of Commonsense, reveals what can happen when someone is incapable of being able to understand when to interpret scripture either literally or figuratively.

I believe that the "days" of Genesis 1 are not earth days, but they're days from God's perspective of time, from the beginning looking forward in time, God looks FORWARD whereas science looks BACKWARDS in time, which is how we know that the universe is 13.8 billion years old, if you notice, Genesis 1 keeps using the phrase "and God *SAW* that it was good", it is a consistent pattern throughout Genesis 1, which tells us that God is not only the creator in Genesis 1 but also the observer, in other words, Genesis 1 gives us God's perspective of His creation, including time itself, Psalm 90:4 states: "For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night." This verse reflects on the eternal nature of God and shows that God's perspective of time is vastly different from our earthly perspective of time, all time, space, matter and all the laws of physics began at the Big Bang and God exists beyond the Big Bang singularity, that is where God's dimension or "heaven" is, and in God's dimension, time passes much slower, and so from God's vantage point, all the events take place much rapidly, God is able to see creation's entire history in just 6 "literal" days, this corresponds to the concept of Time Dilation, in Einstein's theory of relativity.
