New Major Breakthrough For Creationists-April, 16 2008 [:o]
Many scientists say that the age of the earth is 4.54 billion years old. How can this be when the Holy Bible says it’s 6,000 to 12,000 years old? Who is right? Scientists date the earth from a meteor. This meteor was supposedly one of the original rocks from the formation of our solar system. Our solar system was created from the Big Bang. The Big Bang theory says that an original core matter exploded and expanded from an extremely dense and hot state and continues to expand today. My theory states that this original core matter was placed in space by God. This original core matter exploded, creating the universe, planets, moons, stars and galaxies (including our Milky Way) about 13.73 billion years ago. A supernova that had existed for 4.54 billion years in our Milky Way galaxy exploded and created our solar system about 12,000 years ago. Since our earth was a part of this supernova, it will also date at 4.54 billion years old. Here is the major breakthrough: After this 4.54 billion years, God created the heavens and earth, around 12,000 years ago. It is very possible that God is talking about our solar system creation in Genesis and not the universe creation. Many scientists think that fossils are very old because they are in strata or sediment layers that appears to be created millions of years ago. It has been proven that strata can be laid down, layer upon layer, very quickly. For example when Mt. St. Helens erupted in 1980 it laid down as much as 600 feet of sediment, layer upon layer, on the north face of the slope which would appear as hundreds of thousands to millions of years old. Carbon 14 dating that is used to date dead animals and plants, can only go back to around 60,000 years. It can be off by 10,000 to 23,000 years.
Here is my timeline for the history of the earth.
2 Peter 3:8 says:
With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
Using this we can conclude that the first day of creation was around 12,000 years ago.
Day 1 (12,000 yrs ago)-A massive supernova that existed for 4.54 billion years in our Milky Way galaxy exploded creating light and also our solar system. God also created the concept of a 24 hour day and night period. Heaven and earth (our solar system) was created.
Day 2 (11,000 yrs ago)-God separated the waters between the earth and sky.
Day 3 (10,000 yrs ago)- God separated the waters from the dry land. He created plants (9,001 yrs ago). The world's oldest tree has been found in Sweden, a tenacious spruce that first took root just after the end of the last ice age, more than 9,500 years ago.
Day 4 (9,000 yrs ago)-God created the sun, moon and stars.
Day 5 (8,000 yrs ago)-God created the fish and birds.
Day 6 (7,000 yrs ago God created animals and humanoids) (6,001 yrs ago-God created Adam and Eve). What is the difference between Adam and Eve and Neanderthals and other humanoids? Adam and Eve were able to conceive of the fact that God exist, whereas Neanderthals and other humanoids were animals and had no concept of God. This is the difference between humans and animals, animals have no concept of God. Adam and Eve were the first real humans in the image of God. Humanoids were animals that migrated out of Africa.
Day 7 (6,000 yrs ago)-God rested.
