When was the earth "no longer habitable"? No longer inhabitable by whom?Sometime after the world was no longer habitable
When was the earth "no longer habitable"? No longer inhabitable by whom?Sometime after the world was no longer habitable
So, after all--surprise! surprise!--the earth was perfect in its original form even though @oatmeal was not yet inhabiting it. So much for the gappers' ridiculous and false claim that absence of inhabitants meant imperfection.At parochial grade school, I was taught that God is perfect. Since God is perfect, everything he does is perfect.
Thus is seems that the heaven and earth he created had to be perfect in its original form.
The late Pastor Arnold Murray of the Shepherd's Chapel taught that be correct translation in Genesis is that the Earth "became" void and without form.
That's something devastating happened to the Earth.....
If that is so then it's a possibility that the war that took place in the heavens actually involved the Earth.
That would explain why he told man to be fruitful and multiply and "replenish" the Earth.
I believe that the Earth is old very, very, old.
And at one point her name was Eden, God's Garden.
I also believe it is only been just over 6,000 years since the "fall" of Adam.
The 6 days, I believe is a mistranslation.
I've read the arguments concerning the word Hebrew word yom. It can also mean a period of time / a span of time / the time when / as well as other things and the translators / writers / first churches chose to use it as a literal 24-hour day.

The Earth is very old... thousands of years!I believe that the Earth is old very, very, old.
That is ridiculous.The 6 days, I believe is a mistranslation.

JudgeRightly gave you the strongest argument why you are wrong. However, the weaker argument you rely on is the scientific, or material, argument. But since you rely on the material argument, you should understand you are wrong even on your own terms.The late Pastor Arnold Murray of the Shepherd's Chapel taught that be correct translation in Genesis is that the Earth "became" void and without form.

Who are you calling a Bible denying gapper? You must be referring to yourself!I get what you Bible-denying gappers are trying to do with the "re" in "replenish", but it is really silly, and baseless, and will never work out for you. By telling man to replenish the earth, God was not telling man to do something again that had been done before. Rather, God was talking to the first man, Adam, telling him to begin, for the first time, doing something that had never been done before by man: viz., to be fruitful and multiply. Adam could not obey some command to fill the earth with some "pre-Adamite" non-men, since Adam was a man, and man only begats man.
Amen! 6,000 to 10,000 years old is, indeed, very, very, very old!
Messianic version uses becameHe taught wrongly.
There is no "became" in that verse.
Nope. Nothing happened between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2.
It's not so.
Nope.
"Replenish" is not the correct translation. It works, but only for one of it's definitions.
The word used in the original Hebrew text was "male" (pronounced "maw-lay"). and means "to fill or be full."
There is nothing in its meaning that implies being "filled again."
7500 years is definitely very old.
Genesis 1:6-8
The name of the earth was "Heaven."
Roughly 7500 years, give or take a century.
Adam fell within 14 days of Genesis 1:1.
You believe wrongly.
As always, when this comes up: The CONTEXT of the word yom ALWAYS specifies its meaning.
In Genesis 1, there is no other possibility for it to mean anything other than a literal, 24-hour period. The context does not allow it.
In other passages, yes, it means "age" or an undefined period of time. But in Genesis 1, the context defines it as a normal, literal day.
Ok, and?
The Earth is very old... thousands of years!
That is ridiculous.
God chose to make it a literal ~24 hour day. How much more clear could He be?
I think you may be thinking of The Avengers.
You must be thinking of The avengers the Bible specifically says there was a war in heaven and if you were a Christian you should know it. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation 12&version=KJV
... The Lord is called the Lord of hosts who is mighty in BATTLE
Think of him as you choose ......Arnold Murray was a blithering idiot and a false teacher.
Haven't done since she disappeared on that you can feel I believe wrongly as is your right. I feel .... You believe wrongly
Yep.Think of him as you choose ......
Believe as you choose it is your right as it is mine to believe as I choose.
You choose to believe wrongly, but it is not by any right that you do so.Believe as you choose it is your right as it is mine to believe as I choose.
evening and morning is achieved by the rotation of the earth
1 rotation of the earth = 1 day
day one earth and light without form
day two and three gave form to the earth
day four form to the light
JudgeRightly gave you the strongest argument why you are wrong. However, the weaker argument you rely on is the scientific, or material, argument. But since you rely on the material argument, you should understand you are wrong even on your own terms.
By your terms, when you say "very old" you mean far older than what science tells us it is. Although some scientists would agree with you and not me, other scientists have compelling arguments that agree with me and not you. Thus, at best, you can either struggle with the material argument without understanding the truth, or you can follow the philosophical argument and have a greater appreciation for what you just learned from JudgeRightly.
If I'm not mistaken, you're the first person I've seen go to war against Genesis on a dual front of proclaiming BOTH the gap idea AND the day-age idea. You're apparently aiming to somehow get untold eons more time for the earth's history than even the Darwinists are begging for!In the Bible does not say it was a literal 24-hour day.
