What most of the resistance in accepting modern cosmology for young earth creationists isn't based on wether or not God was the first cause. Most of the debate is about the definition of a day in the creation account. The whole artifice of rejecting cosmology and other scientific suggestions and implications is based on the hard adherence to six rotations of earth. Is this the way we are supposed to understand the timeline? What does verse fourteen tell us?

In the last episode, we made many observations about the Garden of Eden, but what if we've been looking at it all wrong? We've been judging everything through the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. That's the tree in which God forbade to eat.

Chapter 3 to me is very obviously a metaphor but we’re going to assume for the sake of our literal brother that the snake was literally a talking snake. I’m going to identify exactly what kind of snake it was while teaching you all kinds of things from this fascinating first story.

For the month of December, my wife Jenny had the idea of the extended family taking turns reading a chapter a day in Luke. When it came to my turn for chapter 11, I saw a lot that I wanted to say about it so I turned it into a podcast.

Genesis 1:15-19 seems to have implications that can apply to the latest cosmology today. I use scripture to understand science better, but I also use science to understand the scripture better. 

Fredrick pushes back on Sherman's claim that creation came with apparent age built in.

Sherman pushes back on my claim that Peter and I agree that the Universe is "old."

Pull Quotes If the purpose of the lights in the heavens are to measure time, wouldn’t more lights help us measure more time?  Peter literally tells us not to be ignorant about one thing. That one thing is not just time but the distinct difference of time variance between us and God.
