What exactly do you believe?

[Jim Parker]

I believe Genesis takes pain to state Gods hand was in every aspect of creation. I also don't hold to evolution. However the importance to me is in "God created" and not the timeline. I note water and that speaks to me of a heat source for our planet as in our sun "was" at that point. No real importance though.

"By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible."

Yup!

Yup!

2peter 3:5
But they deliberately forget that long ago by God's word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water.

My thinking was no heat you have ice. Doesn't matter,(that thought ) as it is written God created.

Given that matter "what we see" and energy (not something that is visible) are interchangeable, that is, one leads to the other, that verse is upheld by physics, IMO.

God can use His Devine abilities to create as well that can't been measured by science.
Ezekiel 37 Can these bones live.

Jesus=>Father glorify your name! Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again."


On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel:

“Sun, stand still over Gibeon,

and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”

13So the sun stood still,

and the moon stopped,

till the nation avenged itself onb its enemies,

as it is written in the Book of Jashar.

The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. 14There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the Lord listened to a human being. Surely the Lord was fighting for Israel!

15Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.

Hebrews:
But somewhere it is testified in these words: "What is man, that You are mindful of him, or the son of man, that You care for him?
God is love.
