How Old Is The Earth?

A careful study of the book of Genesis never tells us the earth is six thousand years old.

Genesis 1:1-19
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

Obviously these verses are in chronological order due to the counting of the days in order. Notice that the very first verse tells us that God created the heaven and the earth in the beginning. It does not say that God created the earth on the first day of creation. Verse 3 tells us that sometime after the heaven and the earth were created, that God introduced light upon the earth and divided it into day and night. It was the evening and the morning from this light that was considered to be the first day. So you can see that God did not create the earth on the first day but some time before then known as the beginning. It is interesting to note that the light of the creation was not based on the light of the sun. The earth was not set in relation to the sun until the fourth day of creation (see verses 14-19). I don't believe verse 16 implies that he made the two greater lights on the fourth day but that he made them at some time and then set them in relation to the earth on the fourth day as verse 17 implies. So the reckoning of the days of creation were not according to the light of the sun in relation to the earth. The light mentioned in the first day was not the sun but a different light source. If I am wrong and God did create the sun and moon on the fourth day, this would only strengthen this fact.

The Apostle Peter taught us:

2 Peter 3:8
8 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.

Latter-day revelation has revealed the following:

Abraham 3:4
4 And the Lord said unto me, by the Urim and Thummim, that Kolob was after the manner of the Lord, according to its times and seasons in the revolutions thereof; that one revolution was a day unto the Lord, after his manner of reckoning, it being one thousand years according to the time appointed unto that whereon thou standest. This is the reckoning of the Lord’s time, according to the reckoning of Kolob.

Abraham 5:13
13 But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the time that thou eatest thereof, thou shalt surely die. Now I, Abraham, saw that it was after the Lord’s time, which was after the time of Kolob; for as yet the Gods had not appointed unto Adam his reckoning.

According to these verses, the period of the creation "was after the Lord's time" and that Adam had not yet been appointed his time of reckoning. These verses reveal that the Lord's reckoning is one of His days is equal to 1000 years of our time. Thus each of the creation periods (days) were 1000 years. So the days of creation were at least 7000 years. But the main point I want to make is that even before these 7000 years, was the earth created. It was created in THE BEGINNING before the 7000 years commenced with the introduction of the light that shined upon the earth which was not the sun. We don't know exactly what the time frame of the heaven and earth's creation was. All we know is that it occurred in what is known as the beginning.

God told Adam that he would die in the same day that he ate of the forbidden fruit. Adam died at the age of 930. This would be within the same day if the Lord's days are 1000 years of our time.
So you reject science in favour of a book of fiction? :cuckoo:

No. Just (Political) Science like Big Bang, Evolution, flawed dating techniques, Climate Change (aka Global Warming), etc. The bible is true as far as it has been translated correctly.

How Old is The Earth ?


EARTH - it is your book that insinuates a time frame for an existence which has always been - that may be the reason christians are unable to answer the question above correctly.

Here's what's relevant, lady.
Age of the earth: 4.543 billion years
Google

Ahh... So now, Google is the scientific source of authority?

If you lived 200 years ago, you'd be ready to behead people if they didn't subscribe to your demands that the Earth was 1 million years old. All through history we've had people like you who close your mind to new discovery and try to force the rest of humanity to abandon their curiosity and stop expanding their knowledge. This is because you can't control people who are smarter than you.
You can search any credible site and get the same result. The earth is 4.543 billion years old. Anything else is bullshit.
 
Well, I think there are some Christians who hold to the idea that the earth is only 6000 years old. I think they have misinterpreted the bible. Mostly because they have a false concept known as ex nihilo creation which is not biblical. They also hold to the idea that the earth was created in 6 of our days and that God rested on the seventh. My point is that it was not 6 of our days but 6 of the Lord's days. His timing is different from ours. This is born out by the fact that God said to Adam that in the day he eats of the forbidden fruit, he would surely die. Adam died at 930 years old. If it were according to our timeframe, then that would make God a liar. But if, as Peter the Apostle taught, a day of the Lord is as 1000 of our years, Adam's death would have fallen within the same day he partook of the fruit. The bible is not the problem, it is some of the interpretations. If God's time is 1000 of our years to one of his days, then the creation itself would have lasted 7000 years including the day of rest.

The bible does not say that existence began with Adam and Eve or the creation of this earth. This would be another misinterpretation. It is my personal belief that existence is eternal. There never was a time when things did not exist. In fact there never was a time when you or I did not exist. We may not have existed on this earth with the bodies we have now, but we certainly existed, according to the bible and other scriptures before the earth was created.

Oh, there is no doubt this is the current age Earth is believed to be. It was also once believed the universe revolved around the Earth. Most physics books in publication say the universe is mostly comprised of atoms, which we now know is false. All through history, what we "believed" has changed based on new things we "learned."

Therefore, we can say the Earth is believed to be 4.543 billion years old. That is a true statement. Saying that it is a FACT the Earth is 4.543 billion years old (and everything else is bullshit) is not true and it demonstrates a profound ignorance of the scientific method or understanding of human thought. In fact, it is usually this stubbornness Science has to combat to drag some people kicking and screaming to what we shall believe next.

I agree with a lot of points you are making here but I think we have a problem when we attempt to reconcile "eternal" with physics. There may never have been a time when things did not exist but what about a time when there was no time? What is that like? Can you wrap your mind around a universe existing without time or space? What does "exist" mean when there is no time or space in which to exist?

One of my main problems with Singularity and Big Bang theory has always been this idea that things happened to create space and time... it's self-contradicting. For things to "happen" they require space and time. So how did something happen when there was no space or time for it to happen? Turns out, physics has a difficult time explaining the origin of the universe.

My personal view is, this is the smoking gun for spiritual nature. The fact that a physical universe cannot create itself.
 
Again I ask...................what makes people think that God's time is the same as what man's time is?

6000 years to God might only be a week.
Well. Since we'll assume he's Jewish that may very well be true. The reason he hasn't showed up a while is he's on a two week paid vacation.

No, the earth IS 4.543 billion years old. Not maybe, not could be, not about, it IS 4.543 billion years old. Now move along, you lost 3 times today already.
 
You may win the argument, but it's not provable.
In the end it doesn't really matter, unless the entirety of your faith hinges on this question..

Again, your insisting that you know something is a fact and dismissing any possibility you could be wrong, is a direct contradiction of the scientific method. In other words, you are not a scientist and shouldn't be allowed in any scientific debate.

I've been reading through some of your posts here and you're actually a little dim-witted. This is why you try to compensate by bullying. Just so you know, it doesn't work.

"It is hypothesised that the accretion of Earth began soon after the formation of the calcium-aluminium-rich inclusions and the meteorites. Because the exact amount of time this accretion process took is not yet known, and the predictions from different accretion models range from a few millions up to about 100 million years, the exact age of Earth is difficult to determine. It is also difficult to determine the exact age of the oldest rocks on Earth, exposed at the surface, as they are aggregates of minerals of possibly different ages."
Age of the Earth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So we see here that Science has formed a theory on how old the Earth is. Based on our estimations it is around 4.543 billion years old... BUT... we already know and understand that our speculation may be off by as much as 100 million years. Not even the Scientists who came up with the 4.543 billion number are willing to say this is certain. Only your little closed-minded stupid ass is saying that.. and being a bully about it.
 
A careful study of the book of Genesis never tells us the earth is six thousand years old.

Genesis 1:1-19
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

Obviously these verses are in chronological order due to the counting of the days in order. Notice that the very first verse tells us that God created the heaven and the earth in the beginning. It does not say that God created the earth on the first day of creation. Verse 3 tells us that sometime after the heaven and the earth were created, that God introduced light upon the earth and divided it into day and night. It was the evening and the morning from this light that was considered to be the first day. So you can see that God did not create the earth on the first day but some time before then known as the beginning. It is interesting to note that the light of the creation was not based on the light of the sun. The earth was not set in relation to the sun until the fourth day of creation (see verses 14-19). I don't believe verse 16 implies that he made the two greater lights on the fourth day but that he made them at some time and then set them in relation to the earth on the fourth day as verse 17 implies. So the reckoning of the days of creation were not according to the light of the sun in relation to the earth. The light mentioned in the first day was not the sun but a different light source. If I am wrong and God did create the sun and moon on the fourth day, this would only strengthen this fact.

The Apostle Peter taught us:

2 Peter 3:8
8 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.

Latter-day revelation has revealed the following:

Abraham 3:4
4 And the Lord said unto me, by the Urim and Thummim, that Kolob was after the manner of the Lord, according to its times and seasons in the revolutions thereof; that one revolution was a day unto the Lord, after his manner of reckoning, it being one thousand years according to the time appointed unto that whereon thou standest. This is the reckoning of the Lord’s time, according to the reckoning of Kolob.

Abraham 5:13
13 But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the time that thou eatest thereof, thou shalt surely die. Now I, Abraham, saw that it was after the Lord’s time, which was after the time of Kolob; for as yet the Gods had not appointed unto Adam his reckoning.

According to these verses, the period of the creation "was after the Lord's time" and that Adam had not yet been appointed his time of reckoning. These verses reveal that the Lord's reckoning is one of His days is equal to 1000 years of our time. Thus each of the creation periods (days) were 1000 years. So the days of creation were at least 7000 years. But the main point I want to make is that even before these 7000 years, was the earth created. It was created in THE BEGINNING before the 7000 years commenced with the introduction of the light that shined upon the earth which was not the sun. We don't know exactly what the time frame of the heaven and earth's creation was. All we know is that it occurred in what is known as the beginning.

God told Adam that he would die in the same day that he ate of the forbidden fruit. Adam died at the age of 930. This would be within the same day if the Lord's days are 1000 years of our time.
So you reject science in favour of a book of fiction? :cuckoo:

No. Just (Political) Science like Big Bang, Evolution, flawed dating techniques, Climate Change (aka Global Warming), etc. The bible is true as far as it has been translated correctly.

"The Bible is true as far as it has been translated correctly".

You've gotta freaking be kidding me. You DO realize that what you call the Bible was actually translated from Hebrew, to Greek, to Roman, to English. In a game of telephone that long, you're bound to get some stuff wrong, and in many cases they did.

In the original Hebrew, the commandment isn't "thou shalt not kill" but rather "thou shalt not MURDER". The very first verse of the Bible isn't "in the beginning" but rather "in A beginning".

You can understand the OT better if you have a Jewish scholar translate it directly from the original Hebrew into English, and can also show you where the subtleties of the language can oft be mistranslated.

Hidden in the Hebrew with Uri Harel and Dr. Rik Wadge on the God's Learning Channel are both really good sources for study.
 
Better than that someone could receive revelation straight from God as to what it means.
 
Well, I think there are some Christians who hold to the idea that the earth is only 6000 years old. I think they have misinterpreted the bible. Mostly because they have a false concept known as ex nihilo creation which is not biblical. They also hold to the idea that the earth was created in 6 of our days and that God rested on the seventh. My point is that it was not 6 of our days but 6 of the Lord's days. His timing is different from ours. This is born out by the fact that God said to Adam that in the day he eats of the forbidden fruit, he would surely die. Adam died at 930 years old.

There may never have been a time when things did not exist but what about a time when there was no time? What is that like? Can you wrap your mind around a universe existing without time or space? What does "exist" mean when there is no time or space in which to exist?

One of my main problems with Singularity and Big Bang theory has always been this idea that things happened to create space and time... it's self-contradicting. For things to "happen" they require space and time. So how did something happen when there was no space or time for it to happen? Turns out, physics has a difficult time explaining the origin of the universe.

My personal view is, this is the smoking gun for spiritual nature. The fact that a physical universe cannot create itself.

In my personal belief I think space is infinite. But time, I believe is a very useful contrivance. I believe that things exist and that there is change. I think because of the nature of change, God and man have been able to construct time. Though my belief in this doesn't stem from my religious faith, I do believe that we all live in an ever present now known as eternity and that things change within it. Because of change due to motion, God can spin an orb upon its axis and have it rotate around a star. Then by counting the rotations and revolutions, time is contrived. Time is measured by change, i.e. change of thought, change of position, change of anything that changes. There may be other orbs that spin more slowly and revolve more slowly that others. The measure of time on such places may be completely different than our measure. Time is dependent upon the measure. But take away all the change and would there even be time? Just like in the movies when everything stops. My thought is that time is the measure of change in the ever present now. If we are resurrected and live eternally, we may realize that we simply exist in an ever present now and make use of varying measures of time for our own purposes.

William Lane Craig argues that if there was an infinite past, we could never have arrived to where we are today. This is his argument for an ex nihilo God who had a beginning in all things. My belief is that there is only the present now and it has always existed. Everything in the now is within it at all moments. Time is only a contrivance in the now due to change. There is no going back into the past. That is an illusion. We only conceive of it because we have memory. The change is only occurring in the now. Our minds make us believe we are on a constant flowing river of time. But maybe we are just existing in the now.

Time is a useful contrivance to record history, allow us to schedule our lives, helps us cook without burning our food, etc. etc. etc. But is it a real thing or a made up contrivance that serves as a help in our lives. Give me your critique on this train of thought and what your thoughts are on the subject.
 
Let's objectively look at this "now" you speak of...

Nothing can "happen" in the "now". It's not physically possible. Anything that "happens" requires passage of time. We are unable to observe "the now" because of physics. Light must travel from an object to our eyes and our brain must register the image... all of it takes time to happen. By the time we have any realization of "the present" or "the now" that particular moment has passed. In essence, all we have are perceptions of time which has passed. The very most recent passage of time we call the present.

Think about this... The future doesn't exist yet. The past no longer exists. The present takes no time at all. Does time actually exist?

I've been reading through some of your posts here and you're actually a little dim-witted. This is why you try to compensate by bullying. Just so you know, it doesn't work.

"It is hypothesised that the accretion of Earth began soon after the formation of the calcium-aluminium-rich inclusions and the meteorites. Because the exact amount of time this accretion process took is not yet known, and the predictions from different accretion models range from a few millions up to about 100 million years, the exact age of Earth is difficult to determine. It is also difficult to determine the exact age of the oldest rocks on Earth, exposed at the surface, as they are aggregates of minerals of possibly different ages."

So we see here that Science has formed a theory on how old the Earth is. Based on our estimations it is around 4.543 billion years old... BUT... we already know and understand that our speculation may be off by as much as 100 million years. Not even the Scientists who came up with the 4.543 billion number are willing to say this is certain. Only your little closed-minded stupid ass is saying that.. and being a bully about it.
What? You're not going to tell us how old the earth is according to Quantum Mechanics? Well that's a step in the right direction.
So you agree with me, the earth is 4.543 billion years old, now shut the fuck up, I've handed you your lunch about 5 times already.
 
The age of the Earth is determined by dating many rocks, including moon rocks and meteorites from Antarctica. All support approx. 4.6 billion years old as noted by many posting here.
