    Thank you for your work. 30 years ago I believed in an old earth and universe. I believed in ancient fossils. I tried to fit scripture into my world view. I mean, why would God try to fool us? Now I know that I was the fool. I had been fooled by secular “science”. I now know I must make science fit my Biblical view. Everything works better if we believe what God has told us. Thank you for revealing this too me. Ha, I used to think I was so smart....

      Listen my friend i think God never had the intension to fool anybody , he just wanted from us to get to know him , respect him and anknowledge him as our creator .
      On the other hand there are things we still discovering to this day and that is exactly why a channel like this is so precious , we are still learning more and more each day about our world and what occured on it . I am not saying that we shall discard the bible altogether , i am just saying it was written on another era for a different audience with different comprehension capacity than ours in such a way that the meaning was simplified for them to understand .
      I am sure God could give us full tutorial of what is out there , distances , ways to travel , ways to live a better life in a single book , but i am afraid that nobody would be able to handle it so he had to give it to us with examples .
      Remember Jesus was talking to people with examples all the time but they only got to believe him after he made few miracles . Now take that from another perspective for a moment ...if he was able to do miracles that means he was superior to us , both mentally and physically , he was smarter than the average person , he was calm and humbled , loved by his followers and the apostels ...was he a human ? How many people do we know able to be like that ?
      Do you think you could recognize him if he was to walk among us today ? i think not but what you think personally would give away his true identity to us ?
      Would you follow him blindly from the moment he appeared before you and asked you to do so the same way he asked from Peter and Paul ?
      Whoever was Jesus really had extra abilities and one of them was telepathy , all the Apostels felt it within he is the real deal ...as if their instinct tells them "go with him" and we know the rest .
      Now with all that been said with your mind and heart at it tell me honestly , do you think if he wanted to do so wouldn't he able to avoid been crucified ? He certainly had the intelligence and power to do so but he didn't . Why ?
      The answer to that is simple to me , he knew that he was the only one who could pay the price for our sins with his blood , otherwise God would unleash his wrath upon us and wipe us from the face of the earth forever for good .
      Again we get to see he was thinking in a wider scale than we do , understanding the bigger picture of humanity as a total
      but also we get to see he wasn't a normal human being ...
      I will live you with that material to think about . Peace

      George Isaak Sorry, but I don’t see the point you’re trying to make.
      As for Jesus being a human, yes, he was. Everything He did, He said, He perceived was given to Him by Our Father. We could do anything Jesus did IF we had the solid faith that Jesus had. Now I might concede that Jesus had a bit of an advantage being God’s only son and all. But the disciples, later the apostles, could do the same things. That’s because it’s the Holy Spirit that does it, not you. So, yes, Jesus was a human in every respect. He had to be else He couldn’t be a legitimate example of what is possible. He had to be in order to make the perfect sacrifice. The Bible testifies to this fact.
      So, now that we have that straightened out, what was the rest of your comment intending to convey?

      AMEN! “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.” - Romans 1:18-21
      Praise our Lord Jesus Christ, YHVH manifest in the flesh, who was in the world, AND THE WORLD WAS MADE BY HIM, and the world knew Him not, John 1:10. Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of YHVH, through whom ALL THINGS, both visible and invisible, were created. Jesus Christ is the firstborn over all creation, which does NOT mean Jesus Christ was a created being, but rather that Jesus Christ existed as the 2nd member of the Godhead, the Word, before any of creation existed. The Godhead defined in 1 John 5:7, with all 3 members present in Genesis 1, “For there are THREE who bear witness in Heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost; and THESE THREE ARE ONE”. In Genesis 1 we have the Spirit of YHVH moving over the waters, the Father creating everything through His Word, and in Genesis 1:26 the triune nature of the Godhead working together in unity to create man in the image of YHVH, “Let US make man in OUR image”, and so man is triune in nature like YHVH, being the visible body that makes our invisible soul and spirit known to others. Jesus Christ is the visible body of flesh in whom the invisible Father and invisible Holy Ghost dwell.
      We can see and have a relationship with our Heavenly Father and the Holy Ghost only through the visible image of YHVH who is Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh. To deny Jesus Christ is God, YHVH, manifest visibly in the flesh, is to deny the Father and Holy Ghost are God. That’s why all who deny Jesus Christ is God, the I AM of Exodus 3:14, will die in their sins, John 8:24. Why the triune Godhead? Because by the testimony of 2 or 3 witnesses, it shall be established, Deuteronomy 19:15, 2 Corinthians 13:1, Matthew 18:16. As 1 John 5:7 says, THESE THREE, Father, Word, and Holy Ghost, BEAR WITNESS in Heaven. When mankind stands before Jesus Christ in judgement, we will be standing before the Father and Holy Ghost IN CHRIST in judgement as well. These 3 witnesses testify to our eternal salvation at the Bema seat of Christ for those who received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, or these 3 will testify to the eternal damnation of those who rejected Jesus Christ when the unsaved stand before Jesus Christ at the White Throne Judgement. Jesus Christ asks the same question to us all, “Who do YOU say that I am?”. For those who are born again believers in Christ, we say Christ is the visible incarnation of the Holy and eternal living God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, YHVH manifest in the flesh as the Son, the VISIBLE IMAGE, of the living God. Jesus Christ is YHVH incarnate.

    The concept of rapid maturing discussed in this video could also be a possible way of making geology compatible with young earth creationism.
    I have studied geology myself, and I know that the earth appears to be old. Which, on the other hand, of course is no proof that it actually is. But that is how it seems to be, when we study the different kinds of rock formations. The concept of rapid maturing opens up the perspective that several billion years worth of geological history could play out in just a few minutes or hours during Creation.

      @@michaeljameson6468 My friend, with respect, you are making a logical category error. God is a Supernatural Being, and it is just illogical to require a "Natural" explanation for a Supernatural being. God is *pre-existent* and He created the laws of nature (Jeremiah 33:25) including time, space, and matter itself - He needs no creator. Actually it's the atheist that has a problem here, because the atheist needs to indefinitely pass the buck backwards to some other natural cause, which contradicts the laws of nature.
      *Given that there is no known physical process which can produce metaphysical laws that govern nature, how do you explain the origin of the laws of nature which suspiciously give precise mathematical order to our universe and which enable "science" in the first place?*
      *"This is what the Lord says: ‘If I have not made my covenant with day and night and established the laws of heaven and earth..."* (Jeremiah 33:25)

      @@michaeljameson6468 My friend, this is a matter of competing worldviews over the exact same evidence, and your belief in a billions of years old universe is based on internally inconsistent and self-invalidating atheistic-Naturalist assumptions, and you can't just hide behind ""it's unexplainable, at least for now" (ie. "we just don't know yet, but atheism is still true") because that requires you to *Very Unscientifically* ignore the evidence that we do have. For example, *did you know that atheistic-Naturalists unavoidably have to invoke Supernatural phenomena in order to "naturally" (atheistically) explain our universe, most of them just aren't aware of it?*
      The first law of thermodynamics doesn't allow energy to come into existence from nothing. The 2nd law of thermodynamics doesn't allow energy to remain usable forever. If the universe can't have a beginning, and if it can't last forever, then how do you "naturally" explain the beginning of the universe? Atheistic-Naturalists have no choice but to invoke *supernatural* phenomena that supersede our observable laws of nature: *Infinite* alternate universes, an *eternal self-existent* singularity, alternate *unobservable* metaphysical laws of nature, or a "quantum fluctuation" that causes entire universes to pop into existence which requires space-time to be *pre-existent* . *This is the amoral atheist God: Infinite, eternal, pre-existent, unobservable...*
      The only way for nature to create itself is if nature is *pre-existent* (a Supernatural quality).
      And it is on this "supernatural" foundation that atheistic-Naturalists assert that everything in the unobservable past must be "Naturally" explainable. They claim everything is only "natural" and extrapolate that assumption backwards an incredible 14 billion years, but then begin to invoke Super-Natural solutions at the foundation of their worldview. Atheistic-Naturalists invalidate their own "natural" assumptions, and therefore every theory they fabricated based on those assumptions (evolution, big bang, abiogenesis, etc.). Internal inconsistency is a sign of a faulty worldview. Internal inconsistency is an atheistic-Naturalist (evolutionist) problem, not a problem for a biblical worldview.
      Supernatural God + Supernatural Creation Event = Internally Consistent, and *all of the best evidences of evolution can also be explained by Genesis 1-12.*
      And you can't hide behind "we just don't know the answers yet and that's okay" - because *we do know.* The laws of nature actively point to the beginning of the universe being a "natural" impossibility, so in order to assert "we just don't know yet" you have to actively ignore the evidence in blind hope of finding a more atheist-friendly explanation later on. That's cognitive bias.

      @michael9237 2 года назад

      @@michaeljameson6468 That's because you put your faith in the modern myth that fish evolve into philosophers, and you just ignored a lot of evidence. As for which God is correct, you have to evaluate the worldview based on criteria including internal inconsistency, can it explain what it ought to, does it have a history of radical ad-hoc readjustment, and is it existentially viable (ie. can you live it out in reality)? These are 4 clear tests for an irrational worldview - all of them are a problem for atheistic-Naturalism. None of them are a problem for a biblical worldview. For example, since you value math and science, *If it's true that the earth is billions of years old, then how do you explain the problem of the Faint Young Sun Paradox?*
      Scientists measure that the sun is slowly warming up from the fusion of hydrogen into helium in the sun's core. If you extrapolate that rate backwards 3.5 billion years into the past then the sun would have been 25%-30% fainter and the average global temperature on earth would have been -2C. It is in this hostile environment that atheistic-Naturalists assert abiogenesis must have happened... life created itself from non-life in a global, dead, frozen environment.
      *"Liquid water is generally considered a key ingredient for life. When the Sun was much fainter, the Earth with its present atmospheric composition would have been frozen solid. If the oceans were frozen, life may not have formed" (Quote: NASA).*
      Secular scientists have tried to invoke a number of farfetched explanations for this. For example, they used to believe that we must have had an early methane atmosphere that caused a greenhouse warming effect, and this greenhouse warming effect miraculously dissipated in perfect inverse proportion to the gradual warming of the sun over the last 3.5 billion years... Some scientists still try to invoke a "massive atmospheric greenhouse effect" solution, such as NASA's claim that "the planet was pummeled by primordial asteroids - some larger than 100 kilometers in diameter - impacts would melt large volumes of rock, creating temporary lakes of lava..." (NASA), etc. ....but the problem is that there is *NO evidence* of an early greenhouse gas atmosphere in our geologic record that would suffice to resolve this problem, and regardless it still *would have had to dissipate in perfect inverse proportion to the warming of the sun...* two celestially separate systems working together in tandem perfectly, just warm enough, for just a long enough period of time, to accidentally just happen to create all the right conditions for life, so that life could miraculously create itself from non-life.
      NASA has also tried to invoke a number of incredibly farfetched celestial solutions that miraculously warmed up the earth just enough for life to create itself, such as massive solar storms that "aided in creating molecules in Earth's atmosphere that allowed it to warm up enough to incubate life" (NASA). Another version is that 4 +/- billion years ago a bunch of giant meteors impacted the earth releasing greenhouse gases and warming up the earth. The problem is that this relatively catastrophic warming would have had to have been just right to warm it up enough to allow all the right proteins required for life to form themselves (think about that for a second) and then this warming effect would also have had to persist and slowly dissipate over the next 3.5 billion years to allow that initial "life" to continue "living." *It is a true unscientific atheistic-Naturalist miracle that a completely unrelated, separate cosmological warming mechanism occurred just for the sake of making atheistic-abiogenesis and evolution possible.* Significantly, there is NO observable evidence for any of these secular "scientific" claims.
      Of course, there is another solution that atheistic-Naturalists won't even consider: the earth simply isn't billions of years old, because God said He created it approximately 6000-7000 years ago. That explains why there is no evidence for any of these secular atheistic-Naturalist "solutions," and it also resolves the problem of how life "naturally" formed itself (it didn't miraculously form itself - God created life). This worldview also better handles the evidence such as how information always has an Intelligent Source and DNA contains mass quantities of instructions in it (ie. God is the Intelligent Source for the info in DNA). This also explains why we all live as if we are meaningful, valuable human beings with "rights," "morality," and as if we deserve respect, because we were made in God's image and likeness (Genesis 1:27) - rather than living as if we are meaningless evolved protoplasm in a meaningless chemical universe with no purpose destined to die a meaningless chemical death.
      "The evidence of God... has been clearly seen since the beginning in all that has been created, so they will have no excuse" (Romans 1:20).

    15:10 What you didn't mention is, it was rejected in two ways : by Heliocentrics, but also by Tychonian Heliocentrism.
    Tycho's disciple Kepler changed two things : 1) he was Heliocentric, 2) he considered the orbits more or less elliptic.
    Now, what the last main Geocentric did - his name was Giovanni Battista Riccioli - was to keep Kepler's ellipses, but revert to Tychonian overall geometry.
    Once all epicycles (except those of minor bodies like Io or Phobos) had the Sun as epicentre of one elliptic focus, it works (except for the quirks of Mercury, discussed by Einstein).

    What is the Light Travel-Time Problem? It's when you can only carry one small carry on and your plane gets delayed on the tarmac for hours. With a the passenger sitting behind you two year old screaming nonstop and the old guy seated next to you spent the prior three hour hold over in the airports cocktail lounge drinking Heineken beer and JD shots while chowing down on the all-you-can-eat chili special.

    I have one question...can God speak into existence a universe exactly like the one we have today fully functioning? Can He or can’t He? He doesn’t need to gradually do anything. He can speak into existence a star, and have light appear at every edge of the universe at that same instance faster than the speed of light. He doesn’t need 6 days to do anything, or gradually take a day to make a plant. Quit trying to limit Gods ability. All you have to say God said it, I believe it. Don’t look for a reason to doubt what the Bible says. I know you have given credit to God for making the universe, just makes me mad that people try to offer an explanation for God.

      The bible says that a thousand years with jah are a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.
      It also states that on the 7th day God rested, and later in romans its says that God continues in his rest day...which shows the creation periods could have been 7000 years each.

      Of course God can create the Universe in a blink of an eye. He had his reason for a 6 day creation ... which includes the Big Bang..
      These guys are trying to explain the speed of light dilemma with Creation, ... when the answer far simpler.
      There are no laws of physics during Creation. Man was created to live for ever. Creation was carried out by God in God's realm, with God's laws only apply.
      There is no Time ... in the Spirit realm. But God chose to use 6 days to Created the Universe, Earth & mankind.
      Remember, God knows man will sin, and he knews every single person that will be conceived during the 6 000 years of Man's Reign, and of the Millennium Reign before Judgement Day.
      We we die ..... we leave the Physical realm with its laws of physics ... and enter the Spirit Realm where there is no Time as we know it. You actually got straight to Judgement Day in the future, when you die. This is why Jesus said, you must be prepared for his return ... as we do not know the day & time .... we will die.
      Believers still alive after the Tribulation, will be called up with the Believers who had died to Heaven to be with Jesus. But Jesus is returning then for the 1000 year reign over the non believing survivors of the Tribulation. How can we join Jesus in Heaven when Jesus will be ruling the Earth for a 1000 years. Simple. There is not time in Heaven. So when we go to Heaven to be with Jesus, we going 1000 years into the future to be with him.
      See how simply this explanation for the light seen from distant stars is. There are no laws of physics ... in God's Zone.
      God created the Universe with the Big Bang. But God created the Earth first in a vast empty dark space ... with no laws of physics. The BB is "Let there be light" that shone immediately on the Earth ... 10's or 100's of millions on light years apart.
      By the 4th day of creation, the rapidly expanding Universe reached and surrounded Earth, and then God slowed the expansion to set the Stars in the skies, then made the Sun, moon and planet to set them in their orbits.
      Again. There is no time in God's realm, but he chose to create the Heavens & the Earth in 6 days. God's plan for his Creation is all making sense ... once you know the science. lol.

In Genesis the word says God created the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night and the stars also.... but most people do not take into consideration the very next verse. Where it says God set them in the expanse of the heavens.... so first He made them, all there in one place, then He set them in their place. Just like the inverse square law says the further away a light source is it becomes smaller. I made my own video to talk about this - though it is crude compared to this documentary lol - but the light was already here then moved out. It moved rapidly like an instant but if you turn on a flashlight and move it far away you still see the light, it just gets smaller but you still see the light without ceasing. Even if it moves millions of lightyears away, being the source is so large and bright.

      I don't wish to be rude, but your understanding of physics is poor. There is no evidence that the speed of light has change over the last 10 billion years, and (unless you believe in magic) the time it takes photons to reach us is directly related to the object's distance from us, so the ONLY way we can see an object 3 million light years away is for the universe to be at least 3 million years old to give the photons lime to get here. There are objects billions of light years away, and they show that the universe is many billions of years old, otherwise we would not, could not see them. Why can we not see objects 50 billion light years away? Answer, the universe is not old enough for photons to travel that far.....by the time they do, the expansion of space/time will leave the photons so stretched they will be radio waves, not visible light.

The most popular one I have come across is the solution offered by Dr. Russ Humphrey’s. However, you basically need a Ph.D. in physics to understand it. I for one cannot visualize 4 dimensional space-time. Thankfully you touched on something in this video that got me to thinking. If God created things via rapid physical process could it be that the speed of light was much faster in the past? Could light from distant objects have traveled faster to us than light from nearby objects? Could this provide insight into the redshift patterns we see from distant galaxies? I would love to get your input. Thanks!

      I favored Dr. Humphries model for many years after reading his 1994 book "Starlight and Time." My recall of tensor calculus was a little rusty, but I was able to basically follow his equations. Unfortunately, Dr. Jason Lisle dismisses Dr. Humphries' model for reasons I have yet to learn. Dr. Lisle (correctly, I believe) dismisses other proposed solutions as well, such as the created light path, a variable speed of light, and the great galactic distances being merely illusory. I have great respect for both of these men and Dr. Faulkner as well. Dr. Lisle's proposed solution is centered around the lack of a measurement for the one-way speed of light. Laboratory measurements of the speed of light involve measuring the "round-trip" time to cover a known distance, so technically, we only know the average speed. So his proposed solution hangs on the very, very thin thread of the idea that light travels at 299,752 km/s in one direction and has infinite velocity in the other. I find it difficult to believe that he might actually believe this to be possible, because so many known constants and equations in physics depend on this very precise speed of light that if it were very much different - in any direction - atomic structures would disintegrate and the universe would be a very, very strange place - not to mention that life would not exist for us to even consider this question. So, unless some other satisfactory solution is discovered, it seems that the distant starlight problem is fatal to the young universe model. That does not mean that one must adopt Darwinian evolution as an alternative to special creation, as there are many Christian scholars and scientists (in fact the majority of them) who reject Darwin, in spite of believing the the universe is billions of years old. A good resource to explore is Reasons To Believe. This ministry has a RUclips channel as well as a website.

Given the weakness of the other theories it seems the Humphries’ model (or something similar) is currently the best scientific option. Although the more I analyze the problem the more I tend to regard it as a miracle and accept it by faith. For example, there is no way you can scientifically explain how Moses parted the Red Sea, how Jesus turned water into wine, or how Lazarus was raised from the dead.

    Look at Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Please specifically notice that God’s very first creative words on the first “day” of the seven-day Creation Week do not begin until Genesis 1:3. There is nothing in this verse about God creating the earth or the Universe on the first day. In Job 38, God is speaking to an afflicted man named Job about many aspects of what God did when He first created the earth and the entire Universe. He says to Job: “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?…Who laid the measures thereof?…Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? Or who laid the corner stone thereof; when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” God speaks of making the clouds in verse 9, setting the boundaries of the oceans in verses 8-12, and there is a reference to polar icecaps in verses 29-30 where the “waters” of “the deep” are “frozen.” In verse 33, God asks Job if he knows about the “ordinances” (laws) of heaven? In other words, God asks Job if he knows about the laws of the Universe which govern its movements and its composition. It is very important to note that God Himself said that when he first created the earth, he made it NOT “in vain,” and that he formed it to “be inhabited.” Job 38’s account indicates that when the earth was created, it was so beautiful the “morning stars” sang and the “sons of God” shouted for joy! Whoever the “morning stars” and “sons of God” were, would they have sung and shouted for joy if the earth was originally created as a dark, flooded, lifeless place as Genesis 1:2?

The report would say adult male, not two day old infant male. Hypo 2 Adam cuts a large oak tree down (again - humor me). Does the tree have no rings? 1 ring? multiple rings? If Adam was created old, if trees were created older, then why be surprised that the Universe looks older too.

    Space, they say, is constantly expanding, so Andromeda might be 200M light years away now, but it wasn't when the light left it. It didn't have to travel the whole distance. It's like if you throw a baseball out of a car that is 10 feet away from a target it hits, and then 5 minutes later, the car is a mile away, the baseball didn't have to travel a mile. It started it's journey to the target when the car was still 10 feet away. (Flawed analogy but good enough.)
    Since light is a continuous stream, this causes a red-shift, as the expansion of the space stretches out the wavelengths. I don't know if this solves or significantly mitigates the problem. It may not be enough to get the calculations to fit into the desired 6k year time frame. But it's a thought.

    The biggest problem with trying to establish the age of the earth and the heavens (universe) as only 6000 to 7000 years, is that it leaves a big issue totally unanswered. WHEN was the time period of Lucifer's rule, before his rebellion and fall, becoming Satan? This is discussed in Isaiah 14:12-15 and Ezek 28:11-19.
    Gen 1:2 says that the earth was without form and void. Isaiah 45:18 says that God did not create the earth in vain (without form), he formed it to be inhabited. If there is no conflict between scriptures, then logically it BECAME without form and void sometime after it was originally created. Was can mean became.
    If a farmer says "there WAS grain in my field", does he mean it was there forever, or that it BECAME there when he planted it?
    If God created the earth perfectly, to be inhabited, and Lucifer dwelt there until his rebellion brought ruin, then Genesis describes a restoration of earth for man to be created upon it. This also solves the age of dinosaurs much better than claiming they coexisted with man.

      Without form and void could be applied to a lot of other initial states in which the universe was created. I'm currently looking into tge plasma cosmology of Barry Setterfield where the matter of the universe was initially created as water in the state of plasma. Plasma can be described as "without form and void". From that God formed the universe as we know it today, partially by supernatural intervention, partially by letting the laws of physics work out as they were intended once God ordered them into existence.

The other galaxies are mostly billions of light years away. We've got a couple of standard candles that can measure distance. We can use parallax within our galaxy. We've developed models for how distant objects are, so we have a very good understanding on how big the universe is.

      Well, for starters, the Michelson-Morley Experiment, which supported the idea of the Aether rather than a pure vacuum surrounding our atmosphere, has never been disproved, it has actually been supported by experiments set out to disprove it. In recent decades, experiments in sono-luminescence uncannily produced what appeared to be stars in a laboratory, on a small scale of course. Its a well-known phenomenon that planets and stars each emit a unique radio frequency, sometimes referred to as the music of the spheres. I really think they could be the heavenly host, i.e. conscious entities that dwell in the heavenly realm. I know its quite a leap from what we're taught in school. I used to be really interested in astronomy and studied it as much as possible on my own time, but in the past several years I've realized that much of what we are taught about space is a close representation of occult ideology taught in the mystical sects of many ancient semetic religions. A few years ago I was really taken in by a channel called "the truth is stranger than fiction" and I've had some major problems with NASA and the entire accepted cosmological paradigm ever since. I'm not saying I couldn't have been mislead, but if you cast aside the influence of the current scientific conventions over your beliefs about space, it is not difficult to imagine the cosmos being completely different from what it is portrayed to be. The images we are presented with are all officially admitted to be artistic representations anyway.

      Can you see details in stars? Amazing! I guess you mean planets, which are light minutes away.
      The moon the same speed as stars? Look up at night.
      Ridiculous.

    Also time is relative the speed of time could have been totally different back than maybe caused by the speed of the expansion of the universe? Also even the constant speed of light is now known is not so constant. Even the speed of light is slowing down.

    Cosmicly speaking we are so tiny and utterly insignificant. And yet Christ died for us.

    I've never questioned this. God stretched out the heavens. It seems to me that we are look at the light as it was stretched from here to there. So the light was here already.we are looking at the light in real time in my opinion.

    I have a hunch that we will see a rapid process again soon. I’m only speculating, but I wonder if there will be a severe and swift geological and meteorological event that changes the earth’s dynamic complexity, a coming “tribulation” that demonstrates God’s existence and power and necessarily reorders the status quo and foundations of the world.

    I do believe the universe had to be created mature, meaning the distant light was present through out the universe upon creation. The problem I see with the thought that things grew out of the ground as vegetation does today but grew quickly and applying it to the whole creation creates another set of problems. Adam and other mammals had to be created mature since they need to be nursed if created as babies. Even a non-nursing hen still shows her chicks to scratch the ground and where and how to roost in a tree. Just my two cents worth of thought, thanks for the videos, I really enjoy them.

    Scientific answers are available. Check out Berry Setterfield and his discussion of ZPE and its significance concerning the speed of light past and present. It also gives evidence of the 6 day creation.

    Have you considered the implication of Isaiah 42:5 and Isaiah 45:12 - 42:5 "So says Jehovah God, He who created the heavens and stretched them out, spreading out the earth and its offspring; He who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk in it" and 45:12 "I have made the earth, and created man on it; I with My hands have stretched out the heavens; and all their host have I commanded?" Does it not solve the time problem if the heavens were created in a "central spot / the point of observation" and then God spread it all out in all directions. In such a case, would we not observe a red (doppler) shift, and would the implication not therefore be that the "oldest" light would be at the central observation point from the moment it all started?
