If according to Genesis 1 God created the world in 6 days and for God a thousand years is like a day (Psalms 90:4), then did God create the world in 6000 years according to the Bible?

 This is a very common question with a very clear answer right out of the Bible and backed by factual science.

It is a shame that the majority of those who claim to be consecrated into His service don’t, or can’t even teach the first page of the Bible.

Put aside all preconceived ideas based on pseudo science and mankind’s endless imagination.

Now read a Higher Power’s consistent principled reasoned resolve written in the counsels of eternity.

Open the first page of your Bible and go to verse #1. And it reads ‘ In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth ‘……… Does it say when? No it doesn’t.

Science has proven the Earth was created hundreds of millions of years ago. The Bible agrees. 

The Hebrew word נוצר translated ‘created’ in verse #1 means created spectacular in order and beauty. A self sustaining planet of life. The jewel of the universe.

The first verse in your Bible is the absolute end of the creation story in one sentence. There are threads in the Bible that weave their way through many places like Proverbs 8 and Psalms 104 that expand on God’s creation account.

Now read the second verse in your Bible. The King James contains a very unfortunate translation of the Hebrew wordהָיָה mistranslated ‘was’. This Hebrew verb הָיָה is always emphatic and means ‘became’ in English.

The Earth became void and without form. God did not create it that way. A simple side study of the Greek word καταβολή translated ‘foundation’ in your King James will lead you through an extensive thread of clarity concerning the time gap events between the creation of the Earth (verse #1) and the rejuvenation of the Earth (verse #2).

Now regarding the ‘ 6 ’ days this question refers :

2Peter chapter 3 gives us the lowdown how God’s wristwatch differs from ours. One day with the Lord is as one thousand years to us presently bound by the perimeters of living in the flesh.

The rejuvenation of the Earth was a six thousand year event. Science has proven that there was an ice age and the Bible concurs. These facts give us a bona fide timeline concerning the affairs of time.

Your call to action to becoming Biblically literate starts by always translating within the Bible. The Bible is its own glossary.

1. Stop wasting your time listening to Pastors who use the Bible as a book of random quotes. 
2. Listen to ten sermons by your favourite Pastor. Then open your Bible.
3. Are you able to read in your Bible with understanding where your Pastor was sermoning? If your answer is ‘Yes’ , then support that good Pastor. Within five short years you will be able to open the Bible to any page and read with clarity your loving Heavenly Father’s message being conveyed to you and whom so ever will.
4. If your honest answer is ‘No’ . Ask yourself ‘What am I supporting and listening to?’ Walk into that church and ask for your money back.
