I'd like to thank you for your channel. After being without faith for over 20 years I for the last few months have renewed my faith and find myself hungry for the word. I want to be a student of the Bible as was my daddy and as you are. I so much admire your knowledge and the way you present it to us in simple terms we can understand and apply. Again sir I thank you, and be blessed!

It tickles me that you can say you don't like it but that is what GOD said and that makes it so. Love this.

“And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.”
Genesis 1:5 KJV
How many first days are there?

I completely agree.Thanks for the clarification.

This is also the first mention principle of how God restores all things (us included). The Holy Spirit hovers (convicts us), God speaks (calls us), light comes forth (Jesus the Christ) and we are separated from darkness, multiplication (of our faith) occurs, then fruit (of the Spirit in our lives). Look at the restoration of the Earth following the flood, Israel will be restored in the same way.

Amen, thank you for that concise explanation!

I think we should take the scriptures seriously on this point. If the bible says "the first day", it is logical to assume that it wasn't the 10 billianth day but actually the first day. My "brackets" aren't so super imposed into my bible. Time, space, and matter had to come into play simultaneously as one cant exist without the others. As for Satan needing a few hours to fall from heaven after his creation on day six, I don't see why you can't fit that in after Gen 2:7 and 8 as we aren't told of logical progression of specific days from this point.

Plus, the Hebrew word for *day* (by our 24 hour definition) was used in the Genesis creation account.

Even people who claim a young earth, seem to agree that Satan fell from grace before the 7 days, yet God said he cast Satan down to the earth. I would love for a young earth person to explain this scripture.

Truly the Holy Spirit does teach us..long ago it was a literal 6 days of creation..and lol at the chronological order..but of course the earth was formed..something left it in dark chaotic state..that's up for another teaching..love having found you this week.yey 🤗🤗♥️♥️

@BRIHOECK7 Michael explains this in his booklet, "The Gap Fact".
The fact that the Bible used both "created" and "made" concerning Adam does not mean the words are interchangable.
Quote: "God CREATED man in his own image (Gen. 1:27). The soul of Adam did not come from previously existing material, so he was created out of nothing. His body was MADE from the soil.

Not convinced myself. Genesis 1 v 1 is not stating, in my view, that the earth was already created before this formless mass appears. It is just a summary statement of what the text following it relates to. It tells us what is going on and when it happens. The whole theory is eisegesis as I see it. It seems that dispensationalists have a leaning or predisposition to such things.

Isaiah 53:5, But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed.For salvation, people just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in the water and of the spirit. Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled with the Holy Ghost and rising again from the dead. That's what Acts 2:38 is.We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD.We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed. One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritan. Our salvation has to match-up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away.Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st, John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.God told Noah exactly how to be saved, how he must build the ark. Noah didn't come up with his own plan like people are doing today. A sinner's prayer, you just have to believe, etc which is not in the bible.The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church.It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction. Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, They continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. If you believe in this message, help spread it in the name of Jesus Christ. God bless you!

Not sure about the Angels being called "Sons of God" in Job. Heb 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? I have gone back and forth over this for a long time. The writer in Hebrews is making the point that God doesn't call Angels Sons, not at any time!

Recently heard of The Gap Theory, just wondering and that free Adam and Eve creation, did God create the people and animals sinless in perfect. Thank you
paulstewart
I think it's quite clear that God and His angels are outside of time; thus it is hard to claim in a gap theory of any kind, because some of God's creation had no real "timeline" to begin with.
happsider
I did some research on Augustine and could not find any writings
of him agreeing on the Gap theory

Genesis 1:31: And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Why would the Bible say that satan falling is very good? Satan had to fall after creation was finished because god would not call evil good.
garrisonwall
The Hebrew literary construction allows no such theory. It is not a sequential statement between the 1st 2 sentences. Look at Hebrew grammar. That is what really what shoves the gap theory off the table.
