Answer 1

The sun rise and sun set that is one day. Always has been.

Answer 2

Genesis 1 says that the evening and the morning were the first day so that states that it was a regular day as we know it today. All other evidence also back that up.

God is Creator of all things, and has revealed in Scripture the authentic account of His creative activity. In six days the Lord made "the heaven and the earth" and all living things upon the earth, and rested on the seventh day of that first week. Thus He established the Sabbath as a perpetual memorial of His completed creative work. The first man and woman were made in the image of God as the crowning work of Creation, given dominion over the world, and charged with responsibility to care for it. When the world was finished it was ``very good,'' declaring the glory of God. (Gen. 1; 2; Ex. 20:8-11; Ps. 19:1-6; 33:6, 9; 104; Heb. 11:3.)

Answer 3

I believe that when the Bible says "Day" it means a 24-hour period of time...if it took God longer than that, it would say "over a long period of time" or "In a thousand years." God knows that our minds can only handle so much...he's not going to be obscure in telling us how He made the world. The Bible tells us that in 6 days, God created the world and all that is in it.

There is no "proof" that the world is over 6 thousand years old. There is speculation, there are theories, there are faulty tests that cause some scientists to believe that the world is older than 6 thousand years old. Just recently, they found that a pulsar that they thought was 10 million years old, might be just a few thousand years old. Too many science books and scientists are creating theories and stating them as facts without supporting evidence or with flawed evidence.

The Bible tells us that there will be an age after this one, an age in which we, who have been saved, will live a perfect life in a perfect world, the way God intended when He originally created the world.

Answer 4

One day with the Lord is as a thousand years with men.2Pe 3:8.
Think in detentions..
The first earth age we (angels) were in Heaven. The dinosaurs where on earth. The second earth age, Flesh men showed up.
Third earth age the future with God.

Answer 5

This is more irritating than the fundamentalists taking the Bible literally. You bend things to suit your own agenda. By the way the universe is younger than 36 billion years.

Answer 6

all information given is suited for the listener. could it be that God could not explain 10 billion years to a man (Moses) that could only count to around 5,500,000 so he called the time span "a day". Since God is not bound by time then, to him, 1 billion years or a day is a trivial difference.

Answer 7

This question somewhat reminds me of a joke my pastor once told:

Peter is praying, and one day he asks, "Lord, how long is a million years to you?"

The Lord answers, "Merely a minute."

Then Peter asks, "Lord, how much is a million dollars to you?"

The Lord replies, "Merely a penny."

Peter then says, "Lord, may I have a penny?"

"...In a minute."

But truly, no one can say how God thinks, for so high are his ways above our ways and his thoughts above our thoughts. To take the word of the Bible as scientific of historical fact is fallacy.

Answer 8

The spiritual realm moves at a different speed then we do. It is much faster. Time is submitted under God, He defines time.

Answer 9

age after ?

Maybe if you rephrased your question better sugar. This doesn't even really have a definite question in it! learn spell check as well.
