INTRODUCTION:

(Deuteronomy 4:2 [KJV])
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

(Proverbs 30:5, 6 [KJV])
Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

(Isaiah 28:10 [KJV])
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

(Isaiah 28:13 [KJV])
But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

(2 Peter 1:20 [KJV])
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

All of the studies found here, whether book studies or topical studies, are done with research with mainly two things: The KING JAMES BIBLE and a plain old, 1828 Webster's Dictionary. Why? Outside of actually studying secular and Jewish history, archaeology, one needs nothing more. You do not need foreign, dead languages that no one speaks, nor lexicons, nor concordances, nor commentaries, because they differ not only with one another and with the KING JAMES BIBLE, they create division, confusion, debate, and unbelief, apostasy, and a falling away from God Himself. We do not need them. That Word of God written and preserved for us in our own language is supposed to be enough, like the Old Testament was for the Jews, and as the New Testament was for the early Christians in Greek, Latin, Italian, Spanish, German, etc.

There are studies within as tangents on words, subjects found within the two testaments, as to broaden the scope of the study, to learn more, deeper truths. This is not an intellectual site with PhDs, theologians, and no worldly wisdom.. Check everything out, everything. Not just here, but with everything you read and see and hear. Be Bereans:

(Acts 17:11 [KJV])
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

(1 Thessalonians 2:13 [KJV])
For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

Always research for yourself, use all of the context, and never privately interpret!

Start of study

GENESIS COMPROMISE: ANOTHER GOSPEL

.

(1 Corinthians 14:33)
For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

1. The Bible hinges directly on the Genesis account and on Creation-especially the Gospel. No literal Creation, no Gospel. Period, end of story, and is not negotiable, according to the Bible itself, from cover to cover.

(Galatians 1:6-9)
I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 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. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

2. It is not confusing to read and understand in and of itself. It takes the world's philosophy and years of government and atheistic brainwashing to confuse us with it's supposed/imagined long ages, evolution, etc.

3. There positively has never been, nor can be any leeway on "evening and morning were the first, second....day" for "YOM". Any claims to the contrary are not based upon proper belief of a standard text, but on believing what the world teaches and applying it to the text-which is an unbiblical position/practice/stance. God never intended it to be open to interpretation. In other words, the word YOM being interpreted as anything other than a literal day with an ordinal number and evening and morning is completely unknown and undiscovered in Scripture. it is mythical.

4. Controversies aside, simply believing what God wrote as He wrote it and intended it and not believing what the world says solves the issue of division .

5. God knows how to communicate in Hebrew and English to us in the rest of the Bible and, therefore, knows how to do so in Genesis. And He did, perfectly

6. Everyone else IN the Bible took it literally as young earth creationists do, from their own mouths, from Genesis to Revelation.

7. This whole unbelief/rejection of Genesis literally was actually prophesied in the Scripture as part of the apostasy of the last days:

Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
-2 Peter 3:3-8

"all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation" is uniformitarianism, and a false religious belief about "over millions" or "over billions" of years.

8. The Bible gives very clear text on the origin of all sin in Romans 5, and therefore no wiggle room. Death before Adam and Eve's fall does not harm the Gospel, it destroys it. We read Romans 5 today.

9. Years of study/scholarship and PhDs do not mean a person knows, acknowledges, believes or even has heard the truth, and "scholars" on both sides do not solve arguing that which is already solved in the Bible, mainly because knowing a lot on a subject is not a substitute for knowing the truth and believing it. You can study a lifetime and know a lot-----of wrong things. God is not impressed with "scholars" anyways.

The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts. -Malachi 2:12

10. Atheistic evolutionists (and rightly so) do not respect Christians who believe their dogmatic religion and then try to stuff it into the Bible, as they themselves know full well it does not fit.

Here is one:

"Christianity has fought, still fights and will fight science to the desperate end over evolution, for evolution destroys utterly and finally the very reason Jesus' earthly life was supposedly made necessary. Destroy Adam and Eve and the original sin, and in the rubble you will find the sorry remains of the son of God. Take away the meaning of his death. If Jesus was not the redeemer who died for our sins, and this is what evolution means, then Christianity is nothing" (Richard Bozarth, American Atheist, September 20, 1979, p. 30)."

He meant, "Christianity is nothing".

11. 1 Corinthians 15:45 reads, "And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit."

If there was no first Adam, and this is also what evolution means, then there is no need for a second Adam. In fact, there can not even BE ANY ADAM.

12. Romans 5:14 states perfectly and clearly,

"Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come"

That undoubtedly and without question means.death did not reign before Adam's fall, which is what a theistic evolutionist/gap theorist believes.

13. "Evening and morning were the first 1 million/billion years" is not proper Biblical text, and is a pretext, using the philosophy of the world to change it.

14. No one IN the Bible, who followed God, ever believed in an old earth. Not from Genesis to Revelation

15. There are few, very unreliable dating systems that even reveal an old earth, and these are the accepted ones, the majority which call it young

16. Darwinism is in and of itself not a purely theistic philosophy (and the teachers, scientists, publishers would like to keep it that way), but was invented to explain things without God. It also produces bad or no fruit, always.

17. "Millions" and "billions" are myths, very unscientific, line up with no science, but are only in the minds of the scientists. Written records end backward certainty. They end at 4,000 B.C. or so. Genesis 1:1 were the first written words of the eyewitnesses (God and Adam), and nothing before it is reality, according to God Himself

18. Genesis is the most quoted book, the most hated one as well by the enemy.

19. The flood account is a global flood, not a local one, and laid down the layers of the earth, with no worldwide unconformities, and reset all dating clocks as it is.

20. The Bible is first, science is after it, always. Any thing or anyone who says it cannot be believed as it is literally written is not to be believed. No matter how "scholarly, accepted, written, studied they are". God wrote it as it happened.

21. The order of events is reversed on purpose in many instances, and this is not by accident. The enemy was behind that.

22. There is no gap between verse one and two of Genesis 1, and no contradiction between chapters one and two as well. Inductive Bible study would reveal that.

23. I am very biased and subjective on this, but I have every reason to be from science and Scripture.

24. Hugh Ross, Gleason Archer and all of the rest are very biased and subjective on this, only they will never admit it and have no scientific reason, and cannot objectively defend it in a fair discussion. Nor would they.

25. In Mark 10:6, Jesus clearly states, "But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.". That means man and wife. Not sub human ape-like creatures, amoebas, or anything but a man and wife.

26. Man is on his way down, not his way up.

27. When people resort to Hebrew and man's philosophies to "understand Scripture" or "clarify Scripture", it is never good,

There is the beginning. I could go on for hours, but after all of these years? I have not heard anything new, and know both sides, being on them.

28. I may appear to be emotional, but when I hear people say the same things for twenty years without fail, and things which are refuted, and easily refutable?

That is pretty worrisome. Then couple that with how emotional these "objective" scientists get when actually confronted with real, hard evidence (a rarity, as they avoid it), and you will often see raw emotion.

29. "Old earth" is a slippery slope, with imagined gaps, imaginary pre-Adamic judgments, fictional accounts of imaginary things not actually found in Scripture, not to mention it is unnecessary, unbiblical and unscientific. I like real, pure, biblical science, which is why I no longer believe in long ages...it ruins real empirical science.

30. "Scientists" who study origins do not determine truth, they are there (if they are not actual Christians) in regards to origins, not to determine truth and facts, but to create confusion and cause the floodgates of varying opinions to open and foster unbelief/reinterpretation. A Biblical scientist is not afraid of science, data, and where it leads. True, Biblical science always points to a literal interpretation of Genesis, unashamedly. And it points to Jesus, not "Big Bangs", "millions of years" and other false, pagan doctrines of men. Theistic evolutionism/gap theories/day-age theories do not lend themselves to good followers of Jesus Christ, but confusion and a re-interpretation of Scripture God never intended.

31. It is not "another theory", or merely compromise, it is simply UNBELIEF, as stated in Scripture.

32. In the military, there is an old saying.."Never take an untenable position. You will always lose". The "Old Earth 'Creationist'" have taken an untenable position against God's Word, siding with the enemy of God, knowingly or ignorantly.

In astronomy, what is a month?
What is a year?
What is a day?

Last question: What is a WEEK? Which celestial body determines that? The earth? The moon? The planets? The sun? The stars? The comets, meteorites?
