Did God Create the World in 6 Days?
Good Points:
He believes. . .
God created the universe and gives Him credit for it, and
there is a moral weight to life that should be considered.
Talking Points:
We cannot try to understand the Bible on our own. We must rely on the Holy Spirit to speak to us and to help us understand it. On our own, we cannot understand how God created all that is in the universe in six days, so we assume six days means something different. When we make these assumptions, we are relying on our own understanding to comprehend the historical events. We revise what God has told us about what He has done in creation to fit what makes sense in our own mind.
This is historical revisionism!
This is living by man's understanding and not in a trust in God and His Word, in which He revealed himself and his power to us.
This is putting man in the center, instead of God.
This is liberal theology not biblical theology.
This is living by man's ideas, not living in a FAITH and TRUST in God!
When we get these types of things wrong, we get everything else wrong, too! Like abortion. When we base our stance of right or wrong on what our own EVIL hearts tell us, we get it wrong every time. However, if we take God at His word, and align our stance with His, we get it right every time.
President Obama is a classic representation of the general Christian population, engaged in a man centered theology that serves itself, versus a God centered theology that serves God!
How God must grieve at our stubborn humanness and lack of faith!
