Hugh Ross although a born again man, I always seem to conclude is more Christ-like in his godly countenance and mannerisms than just about anyone I know. Lovely and meek with solid brilliance operating so beautifully in His Grace.
So true! The credibility of a person's argument is largely found in how they present it. It's one of the reasons if not the main reason, I find Ken Ham's arguments lacking
It wasn’t until I watched Dr Ross debate Ham and Hovind,that I realized their demeanor was evident that their YEC interpretation has serious flaws. At this point I am unable to even entertain the YEC position.
why don't you just see what the facts say and decide if you still want to accept your mythical beliefs? you don't need tyson to learn what the scientific evidence says.
NDT would be very respectful of Ross intelligence. NDT admits there is evidence for belief in God he just tries to say God is not good because of suffering.
@@aue82a actually Neil is probably afraid to because he knows little about the Bible as illustrated in ruclips.net/video/op2epgYmwko/видео.html. Hugh is also an astro physicist who also knows the Bible and thus has both bases covered.
Rick Smalley the Nobel prize-winning scientist on Nano technology who was once an atheist and came to faith very late in his life told James Tour, Hugh Ross is the smartest man I ever met. I would say he's one of the most humble as well. He is a God-given gift to the body of Christ, thank you Lord Jesus.
Wow, what is the context of this retelling? (When did it take place, and is the story from Dr. Tour's or Dr. Smalley's perspective?) I have often hoped and wondered if Dr. Tour and Dr. Ross would ever collaborate in a group interview format, similar to the incredible conversation I heard between Dr. William Lane Craig and Dr. Ross on RUclips.
Fascinating conversation! Thank you for having. All concur with a barely comprehensible God, and Biblical inerrancy. Let the interpretation begin! Am a follower of Dr. Ross. He appeals to a STEM mind with logical and scientific explanation.
I've been listening to reading Hugh Ross for nearly 30 years. I've been studying the Bible for 45 years. I've gone to seminary and earned several degrees. In all that time, I've not seen anything to refute Dr. Ross's views. It honors Scripture and makes sense of the science we are continuing to discover. The "two books" is an amazing position to use employ in a discussion with atheists. Hugh is a gift from God. Not saying the other gentleman is not, but his reasoning is not as sound.
Science help correct the view that the early church believed the scriptures taught geocentricity. Aristotles geocentric view was held for almost 1500 years. Based on a skewed interpretation of scripture.
Dr Ross clearly dominated this debate. The other position was defended so weak, it’s hard to believe how this view is still so resolutely held - other than presupposition bias. Thank you Dr Ross.
I would say this was far too casual to call a debate; it's more like a discussion from differing viewpoints. Dr. Ross also had the floor far more than anyone else (which I don't mind, given how interesting and well spoken the things he had to say are).
The young earth version of history and science is ridiculous and I don't know how millions of Americans can still believe in young earth... you can argue about how exactly creation happened but you can't argue it's only 6000yrs ago
Christ takes it Seriously. He says liars aren't getting into heaven. Evolution is lies. There's nothing that proves evolution. The more technology improves the more the bible proves the Bible is correct. And everything was created at the same time in 6 24 hour days almost 6000 years ago.
I commend your honesty to seek truth, whether it agrees with your preconceived beliefs or not. I wish more people could admit they could possibly be wrong.
How do they explain the sin aspects that Adam was the first human to be created. Why would Moses have confused us. Problem is, there's no verse in the Bible saying that the there was anyone else before Adam. Peter doesn't refer to a pre-Adamic world he was referring to the days of Noah, at least that how I understand it. That would be the only mention of it if Ross is correct.. Mind you I haven't watched this but will soon, to see if the scriptures are made to fit or not..
@@Event_201 I don’t think your theology of the Bible is the one we should all have. We shouldn’t look at the Bible as an infallible book that describes every single thing about the world. We should view it as a compilation of multiple different books with each of their own genres and stories. If you take the Bible literally, you’re going to miss so much value of it. There are fables, myths, narratives, poems, parables, laws, wisdom, etc. The Bible wasn’t composed by one author with one underlying concept in mind, it was composed by multiple different authors across hundreds of years. Not all of them will have the same rhetorical goals. Genesis describes the creation and flood myth which was an etiology for explaining how humans came about, why snakes don’t have legs and why they’re dangerous, why women experience childbirth. The flood myth represents rebirth and the power dynamic between god and humans. If we take these forms of literature to be literal, we lose the intended meaning. The story of Adam’s and Eve was meant to show how humanity was good until we chose to disobey god and be punished to inhabit the world without him. As for old earth, we reached that conclusion with science. We can’t use the Bible to make presuppositions and make reality fit it. We should look at the world that exists and observe it to make conclusions. You forget, god made the world, he didn’t write the Bible. The world tells us that it’s very old and we shouldn’t make the facts conform to fit the Bible. We should reinterpret the Bible in ways that fit the world god made for us. Earth is gods creation, while the Bible is man’s word about god. Would you believe that god wants to deceive us by making the earth old, or do you think the ancient people have deceived us into thinking the earth is young. I trust in god, because he made the earth for us to inhabit and to learn.
@@obiwankenobi2520 You don't know my theology but if you don't understand the 6 days of creation & God Resting on the 7th, was also reference to when the Messiah would rule over the nations, You haven't rightly divided the word.

Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today. The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is: Sunrise to sunset Sunset to next sunset Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ). We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast. Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains". The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours. Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
Hugh Ross emulates, through his astro physics background, the Scriptural excerpts to look to the heavens. Answers in the Bible, Not just Genesis & NOT JUST the Earth. Overlay the Scriptures and man's knowledge quest with the tools and layers of matrices and GIS containing attributes of history and science. Ya Bless...
I wish I had the humility of Dr. Ross. I’m a physicist myself and I deal with this argument from YEC Christians online, “science can’t be trusted because it’s always changing”. I can’t hold my temper back. I end up telling them that they’re stupid and that they don’t know what they’re talking about because they’re not scientists and they don’t get it. Science doesn’t change. It just gets more and more precise with new discoveries. The mathematical models are modified in order to explain new phenomena that arise from more precise measurements. We are without excuse not because of hearing the word of God, but because God reveals himself through his creation. That is how I discovered God, I saw him staring back at me in the telescope and in the microscope.
For perspective, no matter how educated or our lot on earth, we are all equal through the Blood. When I see someone less fortunate I just remind myself, by the Grace of God, there go I.
Claiming that young earth creationists, don't know science is a hottie, an arrogant statement, brother. Maybe they disagree with you and have a different interpretation of the data, If someone returned your insults by saying, you don't know science, you would be furious. I've watched countless debates. And in my well, educated and experienced mind, I've come to the opposite conclusion of you. That doesn't make me stupid. And I know you're trying to claim intellectual honesty and saying that you enjoy Dr. Ross because of his humility. So I'm glad you're attempting to turn over a new leaf. But have you ever even thought for one second that you possibly could be wrong about this? Have you read any books by Henry Morris at all? Because I think he would rock your world.
@@askbrettmanning Yes sir, I have read all of Henry Morris's books. I used to be a YEC Christian with a fundamentalist Southern Baptist Church in a small country town in rural Indiana. I was inspired to become a scientist because I wanted to learn more about God's creation. However, I became disappointed while I was studying secular material in physics and astronomy because of the light travel problem and the laws of radioactive decay. I was stubborn and didn't want to accept the majority interpretation of the data. Instead of praying and searching the Bible for answers, I searched for other YEC scientists. I found Chuck Missler. I loved Chuck. Chuck introduced me to the book, "In Six Days: Why 50 Scientists Choose to Believe in Creation" by John F. Ashton Ph.D. Chuck also introduced me to Barry Setterfield and his work with the speed of light decreasing. As I studied Barry's calculations, I realized that he was ignoring the error bars in each of the light measurements beginning with Roemer in 1676 by his observations of the eclipses of Jupiter's moon Io. Barry concluded that the speed of light would have to be a billion times faster when God created the universe in order to circumnavigate the light travel problem. I'm a physicist and I know that general relativity indicates that if the speed of light was a billion times faster in the past that the cosmic microwave background radiation would be far different than what COBE detected. Furthermore with E=mc2, the energy level with light being a billion times faster would be way to high for stars and galaxies to form. I then started to look at Danny Faulkner and his theory to resolve the light travel problem, but Danny's concept of logic driven deduction based upon the one-way speed of light never being measured left me squinting my eyes as a leap of faith and not a scientific theory. I was left disappointed but I remained a YEC Christian by clinging to the belief that God can create in any way that he wants to and it doesn't matter if we understand it or not. Then I met Hugh Ross and through his humility and guidance, I started to look at the Book of Scripture instead of the Book of Nature. I studied all of the creation scriptures in Genesis, Job, and Psalms. Psalm 104 really made me reevaluate my YEC belief. Job 38 showed me a whole new way of interpreting Genesis 1:7. I then went to Hugh's Reasons to Believe website and consumed as much material as I could assimilate. Hugh showed me a whole new way to interpret Genesis 1 that changed my respect and awe at God's creation. I am not a patient man nor am I humble enough to debate my former YEC Christians. It took me over two decades to come to the point that I'm at now. You called me arrogant and suggested that I'm only trying to be intellectually honest. I apologize that my previous post came across that way to you. It was not my intention. I know that you said that you have listened to many debates, but that is not how you learn about the science. Debates are not fact checked, and even though Hugh tries to fact check Faulkner and Stinger while debating them he is limited by time. I have spent my entire life with my head buried in physics and astronomy books studying the science. Just because something sounds scientific doesn't mean that it is. One must look at the data objectively without bias.
Easly laughs every time ross says “I wrote an artical about this…” He is a mam with wisdom and intelligence I should hope so please keep writing Dr Ross
For some YECs, the several recreation events pose a problem. They deny death exists in the past. Death only started from the Fall. That’s a headache for them.
Romans 5:12 “Through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin death, and so death passed to all mankind in turn.” This is clear death came to “all mankind”, not animals. Why would God kill animals due to man’s sin? YEC claim about mankind killing animals due to sin is just not in the Bible. Predator and prey in balance is good and God said it was good. Predator play a key role in keeping ecosystems healthy. They help keep deer and elk populations in check, which can benefit many other plant and animal species. The carcasses of their prey a lso help to redistribute nutrients and provide food for other wildlife species. Psalms 147:9, Job 12:7-10 Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today. The earth is not about 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this.

(Both are not 24 hours) Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains". “in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens” The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours. Creationism does not equal young Earth. There are many Old Earth creationists.
Amen to that. If you hold a gun to my head and make me choose, I would pick old earth. But it's indeed very interesting that "recorded history" is 6,000 years roughly. And, carbon dating could very well be inaccurate. They carbon dated rocks from the Mt St Helens eruption in 1980. They knew the rock was 10 years old. But the carbon dating showed a few million years. And carbon dating science says that it's nearly impossible to accurately date things less than 50,000 years old. In any case, God bless you, brother!
James Webb Space Telescope recently imaged a starburst galaxy Messier 82 (M82) It is located 12 million light years away, in Ursa Major. Looks incredible, and if it's 12 million light years away... 😀
@@robbienl8176 Amen Jesus is everything. Sometimes people are taught YEC, and then study astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology and learn the age calculated appears to be multiple billions of years old. What I have found people I know, is that it can have an effect of undermining faith. I don't think it should. It is what it is, and if the Earth is very young, or ancient, it matters not - what matters is that God created, with intention, and incredible design. And He created us as humans in His image and loves us. We have the opportunity to observe (JWST, Hubble, NuSTAR) galaxies forming millions of light years away - that's a glimpse of God's creative genius at work. No matter where we look in the universe or deep into a cell with a microscope, we see as Hugh Ross said, the "fingerprints of God."
@@NickB1121after looking it up, it wasn’t carbon dating, it was potassium-argon. Additionally, the lab they tested it at specifically stated that samples under 2 million years old would not produce accurate results. The researchers who tested it were young earth creationist and probably clever enough to know this. It seems as though there was bias in his research, as there tends to be with young earthers.
I've met two of them; Ross and Meyer. Meyer, in particular, impressed me mightily with his gentle encouragement to parents of an autistic child; great intellect, but extremely empathetic.

The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples. Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth. Instead, it has helped in the discovery of cosmic phenomena, such as the 21-centimeter H I line, which is important for understanding the structure and dynamics of our galaxy3. The age of the Earth is a result of extensive research using various radiometric dating methods, including uranium-lead dating, which has provided consistent results pointing to the Earth being over four and a half billion years old
Why do most Christians today try to forget the only commandment that God said to "Remember"? If all Christians believed and followed that commandment, Evolution never would have gotten started.

I have always believed the Bible. As I grew older and understood more, I saw how science confirmed the Bible. I also believe the Bible clearly states a six day creation. And 4000 years since Adam is what Jesus believed. We have a genealogy that goes back to Adam 6000 years ago. So, I’m going to continue to believe that God is all powerful, and knows what has happened, as well as what is happening today and the future.
The Earth is exactly 4.54 billion years old. This has been proven many ways. One of the ways is called radio spectroscopy. This is the study of how electrons are distributed around the nucleus in an atom. Using radio spectroscopy on earth rocks indicates the age of the rocks and thus the Earth. These conclusions are as indisputable as 1 + 1 = 2. If you don't understand the science behind it there are many courses you can take to learn. Don't waste your time with fantasy when facts are readily available
The assumption that the genealogies in scripture are exhaustive rather than indicative would seem to lead to that conclusion, but if God created the earth and the universe in such a way as to mislead people in regard to its origin, then we've got a problem with his righteousness, and the people of Romans 1:20 would have an excuse.

Dr. Ross addresses that in many of his books: the original conditions on earth were darkness because of a thick atmosphere and water covering the earth and the Spirit of God hovering over the water.
The lynch pin of this debate seems to me to be centered on whether the text of Genesis allows for different definitions in the amount of time for a day, i.e. always 24 hrs or not necessarily definitive... didn't really get resolved during this discussion.
From a Christian perspective, it’s very easy to disprove evolution. For evolution to be true, sin would have to have existed before Adam, and it didn’t, easy peasy.
Well, I'm not a physicist of any sort. I just can't believe a God who's eternal decided to do something creative. 6,000 or 10,000 years ago. It is world without end. And the ancient worlds are being revealed. They were destroyed, and so will the world's of old. The beautiful thing I do know is when a soul comes to Christ, he or she is a new Creation in Christ Jesus. A new heaven and a new earth is coming. AMEN
Dr. Ross,Is there a distinction between a cosmological clock and an Earth clock? I suspect that the conditions during the Creation and the rapid expansion of the universe introduced complex time dilation effects that we do not yet fully understand. I propose that both 13.8 billion years (cosmological time) and approximately 7,000 years (Earth time) could be correct. This would depend on a more complete understanding of time dilation, particularly under the extreme conditions of the Big Bang and its rapid expansion.

As I listen to many scientists physicists cosmologist microbiologists and theologians who have all different views on what reality is and how it got here.
God is not the author of confusion, and yet even the most scholarly Christians argue about the very fundamental tenets of the Christian faith. Therefore no God.
@@markb3786 I would agree God's not the author of confusion. He's not confused about what he did, but men seem to not be able to get things right whether it's about God or the origins of the universe. The part about the physical sciences that they're only taking consideration material things. They disregard all the other science is that except the real possibility.
Wonderful. Thank you. My view: God could have done everything in the thinnest slice of an attosecond or over billion of years. I do think that God rested from creating new life on Earth on the 7th day and that we are still in the 7th day of Genesis creation. And the 7th day of creation implies the days of creation in Genesis are longer than 24 hours or even thousands of years. Thanks again.
It's not that the science is wrong, it's the scientists adding assumptions to make their philosophy correct. Much of the science is based on many assumptions. Basically, the more we find out the more we know we don't know.

@@chrismartino3519 Assumed. Everything is assumed. Not sure what you are missing. Everything is based on pre-suppositions. There are plenty of other qualified scientists that have many other differing opinions.

You can measure ice on Antarctic, measure rocks all kinds of ways to measure the Earth's age. A scientist that says the Earth is 6000 years old would be laughed out of the Chem lab. Just do a little bit of studying reality and less time studying fantasy and the world we be a much better place.

Why not get some science skills so you know what's real and what truth is.
I thought the statement about the dog kind was a great thing to talk about and the genetics and speciation in a short time period that was observable. But Ross seemed to almost brush that off and think of it as an anomaly. But if we look at all animals we see it maybe not to that huge of an extent but it's there. And doing it naturally over a few thousand years isn't that hard to believe. We even see hybridization naturally and new species now that pop up in short periods of time.
One or two who have misinterpreted the data are making that claim for clicks from people who haven't studied star-forming in galaxy mergers, but no serious cosmologists takes these claims seriously.
No. New things must just be studied and understood. New things need to be peer reviewed. We have the Hubble telescope, and Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). These tools and other tools have measured the universe. The universe (time, space, and matter) came into existence 13.813 (±0.038) billion years ago Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today. The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is: Sunrise to sunset Sunset to next sunset Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ). We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast. Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains". The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours. Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
If God created the universe before or during day one. Then what happened on day four? I'm really wondering what the old earther's possition is on this. 👍
On Day 1 the Bible states, “Let there be light”. Genesis 1:3. On Day 4 the Bible states "Let there be lights". Genesis 1:14. In both examples, the Bible does not state that God “Created” or made the light / lights at this point. The words Create (bara) nor Made (asah) are not used here. The text simply states, “let there be.” The Hebrew word for made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action. Genesis 1:16-18 are parenthetical statements that indicate that the sun, moon, and stars had been made sometime in the past. IN THE BEGINNING! Several Bible translations wrongly add the words “and” and “then” to the beginning of verse 16 causing problems. Why allow these lights, Sun, and Moon, to be seen now on Day 4? To mark for "seasons", "days" (24 hours), and "years". Again, why? The animals to come after day 4 need them for migration, hibernation, etc. The language also “implies” that these lights were not visible prior to this day / period of time. It does NOT mean that the Sun and Moon were “not” there. Ever get a sunburn on a cloudy day when you could not see the Sun? Does the Sun need to be visible for solar radiation to permeate a translucent atmosphere and allow for microbial life and photosynthesis? We know that the oxygen level of the Earth increased changing the atmosphere from translucent, can’t see the Sun or Moon, to transparent, where you can see them both. This transformation in visual clarity caused by an increase in oxygen in the atmosphere has been proven in the lab The solar system is completely dependent on the gravity from the Sun. It is impossible for a solar system to form if the Sun did not exist until the fourth day. Plants need the Sun for photosynthesis. Land plants came on day 3, right? Did fruit trees sprout from seedlings to mature fruit bearing trees in less than 24 hours on Day 3? - No. No, Day 3 has to be longer than 24 hours. In fact, we now know that land plants came 1.2 billion years ago. Sea animals (Avalon explosion) came 575 million years ago. Plants were abundant on land, ~600 million years before sea animals.

Land Plants came before sea animals is clearly documented in Genesis 1:11 & 1:20 written some 3500 years ago! The Bible has been scientifically proven correct again!
Let there be light, the world create is not there. ' You have some frame of reference wrong. Also Genesis is not the oldest book of the Bible, Job is, so to understand Genesis, must read Job first. 1) Biblical Hebrew has a smaller vocabulary than English. In biblical Hebrew, there is no word for universe. Instead, the Hebrew phrase that is translated “the heavens and the earth” is used to refer to the universe-the entirety of physical reality. The phrase is used thirteen times in the Old Testa , always referring to all matter, energy, space, and time in the universe. 2) The Genesis says "let there be light", the word create is NOT in the text. Job tells us what is "let there be light". Job 38:9 when I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it in thick darkness. The cloud make it dark, Genesis 1:2 tells you the frame of reference above the waters on Earth. So the two tell use the cloud went from dark to lighter. The clear sky does not come till " moon to mark the seasons" now with have blue sky. Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today.

It was the "appearance of age" in so many aspects of creation that finally caused me to stop with the young earth view. I could not square God building deceit into His creation. Like he painted a masterful Trompe L'oiel ceiling over our heads to fool us when we were able to figure enough things out. When I came to that cul-de-sac I had to say, look, maybe we took a wrong turn if our understanding requires us to see God as the ultimate Special FX artist or a cosmic counterfeiter. I had to conclude that the fault was in our understanding rather than attributing deceit to our Creator God.

Thank you for your thoughts. We hear about the speed of light and the 4th day, but we don’t hear much about the possibility of the speed and motion of space itself. Does space move as water currents wherein light is traveling as plankton in ocean water? What was happening in the physical universe in Genesis 1:2? What does Genesis 1:2 imply to our finite scientific reasoning? (finite fools think therefore infinite is not?) How can you measure your speed in an ocean full of currents when you don’t have a single point of reference? Therefore our only true point of reference is God Himself.
The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples. Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth.

@@Terrylb285 Thank you that, I'm pressed for time to find this follow up answer on my own, but I've heard that Dr William Lane Craig is kind of fuzzy or blurry on Adam also being created from dust, what have you heard ?
@@flolou8496 Willian lane Craig I also believe is fuzzy, he doesn’t fully endorse theistic evolution, but also is not anti evolution. But remember he is not a scientist but an apologetic philosopher. He leaves the door open for Adam being part of the Homo Heidelbergensis. But he is one of the best on defending the kalam cosmological argument. Even the great C S Lewis in the possibility of theistic evolution. But Dr Ross takes a very strong stance against Theistic Evolution.
There are multiple views on original sin, so another origins/creation/evolution perspective that challenges the Calvinistic version is not controversial. Theistic evolution is completely compatible with Scripture.
The Sun and moon were allowed to be seen from the surface of the Earth on day 4. The Hebrew word for made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action. Genesis 1:16-18 are parenthetical statements that indicate that the sun, moon, and stars had been made sometime in the past. Quote from you, "We calculate time based off rotation of the earth around sun and moon." Partially correct. The Earth and Moon rotate together around the Sun. The Moon rotates around the Earth. The Sun does not rise and set. The Earth revolves creating the appearance of the Sun rising/setting. You cannot have "evening and morning" without the Sun on days 1, 2, and 3 if the Sun was not Created until day 4. The Sun and Moon were not formed at the same time. The Sun was formed first in order for the solar system to form. The Moon was not formed until after the merger of the planet Theia and the proto-Earth. The debris in space from this collision formed the Moon.
@@MutsPub Genesis 1:14 ESV [14] And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years, I would argue that from this passage, we have no indication to suggest they were made visible rather than created. If you want to argue the sun was made first at the beginning of day 4, I can see that. Evening and morning without the sun on day 1 is the mystery of God's word I'm getting at. This is why I believe it's impossible for humans to accurately radiologically date earth's minerals.
@@jndvs95 I'll not argue. There is no such thing as a word for word translation of the Ancient Biblical text in any modern language. It is thought for thought at best! The Sun and moon were allowed to be seen from the surface of the Earth on day 4. The atmosphere changed from translucent to transparent. We know that now because of the oxygen content on the early Earth. Does the Bible talk about neutrinos which are the most abundant particles that have mass in the Universe? NO. How about microwaves? Nope. The Hebrew word for made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action. Genesis 1:16-18 are parenthetical statements that indicate that the sun, moon, and stars had been made sometime in the past. It was written in Hebrew, not English. "made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action." Did they have past tense in Ancient Hebrew? NO! They only had perfect and imperfect tenses! "verb form that denotes completed action" The Hebrew word for Create (bara) is only used three times in Genesis 1. It is NOT used here. Do you know what parenthetical means? A parenthetical statement is one that explains or qualifies something. Why do you waste my time? 1) Young Earth creationism has simply failed every empirical test that mainstream science demands. 2) There are no serious peer reviewed young Earth creationist science papers. 3) There are no scientists studying “young Earth creationism” in any secular research center in the world. 4) Why? Because the Earth is 4.5662 +/‐ 0.0001 billion years old. 5) All three of these indicate that the universe came into existence billions of years ago. a) The “Sloan Digital Sky Survey” b) The “Two Degree Deep Sky Survey” c) The “WMAP,” which is the most accurate map of the radiation left over from the Creation event. 6) There are 6 independent measures for the date of rock. a) 2 Uranium dates: ‐ Uranium -235 decays into lead -207 ‐ Uranium -238 decays into lead -206 b) 1 Thorium date. ‐ Thorium -232 decays into lead -208 c) ALL 3 of these listed Lead dates come to the same result; 4.5662 +/- 0.0001 billion years. Therefore, the Earth is ~4.5662 +/- 0.0001 billion years old. 7) None of this is a salvation issue. 8) The Bible remains the inerrant word of God.
@@jndvs95 Quotes from you, "Last I heard, none of the models really played out perfectly." Please give me the peer reviewed article you are referring to including the name(s), date, and DOI.

I think for me, the young Earth creation theory fit better with my thinking because the alternative for a long time was evolutionary billions of years. Billions of years, theistic creation is something I will think on. I'm not adverse to it because I think God can create anything to be any age, but God is also outside of space and time, so billions of years are nothing to Him. It isn't something that rocks my faith, but it does give me more to think on, and that's exciting because I think people who worship Science will come to find God the more they study.
Yes,i think you make two great points,we are talking earth time,and the heavenly realm of spirit beings is outside of that,so in their time frame just a few days maybe for creative activity? We already know that time dilation when close to large masses is real in this universe,we humans have a problem with long creation time,he does not.We shouldn't have a problem we were all asleep!! Secondly,i also believe that honest and truthful study of laws of physics,and the phenomenon that gives,will dovetail beautifully with the bible,both books have the same source,and tell the truth.

Wow!!! Thank you all for getting together and respectfully discussing one of the most interesting subjects of the Bible! You all were able to sum up both sides in around an hour, awesome! I saw some commonalities here, namely (1) God didn’t need to create with evolution, (2) God can move in and out of space-time and perform true miracles like giving someone new eyes and walking on water, (3) the Bible is the authoritative Word of God. It seems the big difference of opinion, from Dr. E and Dr. R, is around the question of whether a day was a day, or millions of years periods of time. It would require a deeper look into the meaning of day, and evening and morning. Can we ever know “for sure” the length of those days? I think what matters most is the transition between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. If it is possible, from a literal reading, that Genesis 1:1 was a separate event from Genesis 1:2, then we have the “possibility” of an old creation. Whether the days that followed were millions of years or 24 hours, they would still be a separate event from the original older creation event. Our Bible translations make this difficult to interpret. Looking at 5 major translations: the NASB ‘95 and ESV (most literal) start Genesis 1:2 as a brand new sentence, which makes it easy for me to see it as separate event. However, the KJB, NIV, and NASB ‘20 show Genesis 1:2 starting with “And” and “Now”, implying that it could be just further describing the Genesis 1:1 event. Whatever the case, I’m ok with the idea that God made things in 24 hours, or epochs of time, either of which I think is possible. I’d really love to be comfortable with the idea that God was doing things long before the last ice age, like Darren said. I think that would not only help us better understand what we see in the sky, but also honor how big and awesome our God really is. Thanks again for the great talk!!!

@@chrismartino3519 martino, The earth was said to be around 2.5 billion years old when I was younger. We must address the issue that all of these radioisotope dating systems have several assumptions being made for the researchers to come to their conclusions, any one of which if wrong, would throw off the entire scheme.
@@chrismartino3519 chris, Your response is sadly amusing. Instead of fighting your Creator - Jesus Christ, who spoke this world into existence, why not love and follow him?
I have always thought that the time descrepency issue could be resolved by what we know now as time dialation...god was creating faster than the speed of light...from everything within what was bieng createds point of view billions of years passed...someone that is good at adding numbers to letters could figure it out
When you run the Lorentz transformations, you quickly discover that's not how time dilation works. In fact time dilation observed in supernovae within the Hubble flow as well as the damped random walk in quasars during cosmic noon confirm the FLRW/ΛCDM model for the expansion history of the universe and point to an origin about 13.8 billion years ago.

About 6000 years. That's why there are unmineralized dinosaur bones -- the original biological material of the animals, and soft tissue, and C14 in the same, as well as C14 in oil, coal, diamonds fossils which would not be there anymore if those things were really millions of years old.
Carbon 14 (C14) is formed by the collision of a neutron with Nitrogen 14 (N14) thus knocking out a proton and retaining the neutron similar to a classic billiard ball collision with reverse English being skillfully applied to the cue ball. C14 is formed constantly due to physical and chemical interactions with cosmic ray particles colliding with the Earth’s atmosphere. Every second over 100,000 cosmic ray particles collide with one square meter of Earth’s atmosphere. These cosmic ray particles come from supernovas and other astronomical events and consist of atomic nuclei and nucleons, such as protons, neutrons, and helium. They are mostly made of protons (89%), which are the nuclei of hydrogen, the most common element in the universe. Cosmic rays also contain 10% helium nuclei and 1% heavier nuclei, including uranium. The same process of high energy nucleons interacting with Nitrogen takes place in the mantle of the Earth too; thus, forming C14 within the mantle. So, how does C14 get into diamonds? By the same process that occurs in the atmosphere. Through subduction of the ocean floor, Nitrogen is introduced to the mantle and through the radioactive decay of Uranium and Thorium within the mantle high energy nucleons are created which interact with the Nitrogen thus forming C14 within anything that contains Nitrogen within the mantle. Diamonds and graphite are formed in the mantle. The most common impurity in the growth of diamonds is nitrogen. Nitrogen gives the appearance of yellow or brown hues, Boron is responsible for blue hues, plastic deformation can cause pink hues and irradiation can result in green hues in diamonds. High energy nucleons pass through the carbon matrix of diamonds and interact with the Nitrogen impurities thus forming C14 all throughout the growth of the diamonds from start to finish; therefore, it is common to find a small amount of C14 that had been formed within the last 10,000 years of the diamond’s growth process. Nitrogen makes up 78% of the atmosphere; therefore, it's everywhere on the surface of the Earth, in the crust and in the mantle. The soft tissue in dinosaur bones that you mentioned was discovered by Mary Schweitzer. They were not 'unmineralized dinosaur bones', they were soaked in an acid bath that demineralized them after 7 days. It is an intriguing discovery. However, in no way does it refute all of the data collected by geologists, archeologists and paleontologists over the last two centuries. Mary Schweitzer herself, a professed Christian, said that it forces scientists to reexamine the process of fossilization, not that it completely upends all of geology and paleontology.

This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is: Sunrise to sunset Sunset to next sunset Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ). We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast. Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains". The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours. Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
@@djsarg7451 You are reading things into the text that are just not there. "Morning and evening were the first day" means a 24 hour day. Same goes for the following days of creation, followed by the 7th day of God's rest. We know this, not just from the clear creation account, but also from Exodus 20:11 where we get our 7 day week. Nobody works for 6 million years and has a rest for 1 million years. "6 days" means 6×24 hour days. The Bible teaches the earth is about 6000 years old through the line of descendants from Adam to Noah, and from Noah to Jesus, who we know existed about 2000 years ago. And "day" in "In the day that the Lord made the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 2:4) means "when" or 'in the era', as in "back in the day" or "in my father's day", and has nothing to do with a timespan.
The oldest stars we see is roughly 6000 years old. And ones that are farther we can't see yet. So take the years away times the speed of light 186000 miles per second. This is the 2 way speed of light so it could be substantially faster upon later technology. Times this speed by the amount of seconds in 6000 years There are 31536000 seconds in a year So this means there are 189,216,000,000 seconds in 6000 years So take that number and times it by the current speed of light. 3.5194176000000000E16 miles away. The moon is said to be 238900 miles away So a star that is 6000 light years away is equal to going to the moon 147,874,689,075.6 times. Really think of that
Correct , man living several hundred years reaches his total depravity point from his sinful nature,God in his perfect timing uses the laws of physics, knowing in advance where and when man would be in this stage of fallen chose to use cosmic rays to limit human life span.

What irks me about YEC proponents is the inference that ALL other views are at odds with the Bible. I have looked at the various views, and I have not made up my mind, but I must admit that the YEC crowd are way too dogmatic and shoehorn their ideas into the Biblical text.
The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples. Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth. Instead, it has helped in the discovery of cosmic phenomena, such as the 21-centimeter H I line, which is important for understanding the structure and dynamics of our galaxy3. The age of the Earth is a result of extensive research using various radiometric dating methods, including uranium-lead dating, which has provided consistent results pointing to the Earth being over four and a half billion years old

Because the researchers procedures were faulty. The problem is that they used potassium-argon dating for something very, very young in comparison with the decay rate of potassium. The lab the researchers tested this at explicitly stated that samples under 2mil years would not produce accurate results. Not all labs can afford state of the art technology which would be much more accurate. Additionally, the half-life of Potassium is about 1.25 billions years old, which is much better for dating very old samples rather than samples a decade old. In a decade, there would be slim to none traces of argon detectable in fresh potassium samples. What most likely happened is contamination from previous tested samples that linger in trace amounts. In a normal sample, it is negligible. In a young sample, it skews the data. Radioactive dating overall is a very trustworthy method for measuring absolute dates, but you have to know what you’re doing to get accurate results. This is why samples are cross referenced with other radioactive methods.
Why are Ross supporters so angry? Young Earthers are in the majority when it comes to believers, they simply are so ignorant not o know that. Besides, you don't get angry like a spoilt child cuz one group of believers believe differently on things that are debatable or when the Bible isn't clear on things, ppl here are looking at young earthers as a cult. I've never seen any problem with the likes of Ken Ham, in fact, there's enough scriptures to say that Jesus will return on the seventh day. We've just entered the 7 millennial and the signs if the end is here..
@@Event_201 We get angry the same reason we get angry at flat earthers spouting nonsense and teaching pseudoscience to children. The Bible also implies that the earth is flat with a dome firmament separating the waters from earth and from the divine. But people know better not to believe the earth is flat because it’s demonstrably false. Science starts with the evidence and tries to make sense of it. YEC starts with the conclusions that earth is young and tries to make the evidence fit. It really is frustrating when people try to undermine these amazing fields of science that are just absolutely incredible. The majority of Americans may in fact be young earth creationists, but not the scientists. If you were to go into any scientific field, none of them would teach the earth is young or even hint to it. Geology disproves a global flood and affirms an old earth. Astrophysics affirms an old universe. Biology affirms common descent and the discovery of DNA confirmed many predictions made by evolutionary theory. I love to learn about this world but when I see people twisting science to fit their narrative, it’s insulting because it discredits a large portion of research great scientists have done. To scientists, young earth is a conspiracy theory and many don’t address it because it’s below them. The problem with that is, not many people think science is against them because you don’t have enough people correcting their presuppositions. And yes, you’ll have a few scientists who do affirm the earth is young but the number that do is very low and they are often scoffed at by others in the field. You don’t even have to look up reasons the earth is old, you definitely could, but you just have to learn about these different fields of science and you’d learn many of things. There are a large amount of playlists across RUclips that teach certain fields. For geology, I’ve found that “Geo Girl” is very informative. For evolutionary biology, Yale has a free online course online. “Professor Dave Explains” has a ton of playlists of introductory to intermediate scientific concepts. For looking into young earth creationism vs old earth, don’t look up reasons/arguments for both sides. Instead, just learn about the relevant scientific fields and that will give you much more understanding that it would if you look for the answers you want.

Lord Jesus did signs. He showed humans SIGNS. And this is before the rest of the word was written. What would have happened if He showed humanity no SIGNS? He said to the Pharisees, you see the sky (cosmology) at evening and say, it's red, tomorrow good weather (a sign from nature), and in the morning you say it's red and lowering (a sign from nature) bad weather. He then COMMENDS THEM BY SAYING, YOU CAN DISCERN THE WEATHER BY (BY THE SIGN IN NATURE) THE FACE OF THE SKY, BUT HOW IS IT YOU CANNOT DISCERN THE SIGN OF THE TIMES? They saw a SIGN IN THE HEAVENS AND NEW SOMETHING WAS TRUE THAT THAT SIGN POINTED TO. LORD JESUS USED NATURE TO REVEAL TO THE PEOPLE HIMSELF.

THE EXPANSION OF THE UNIVERSE IS A SIGN, LIKE THE PINE TREE, AND THE RED SKY. (ALL A REVELATION TO THE MIND BY NATURE.) NOTHING BUT SCRIPTURE IN CONTEXT. And now atheist scientists are seeing the SIGNS in the heavens that declare God made all. They see and admit THE SIGN OF EXPANSION! IF THEY DO NOT WANT TO HEAR THE GOSPEL, BUT SEE THE EVIDENCE IN THE HEAVENS THAT POINT TO GOD, THEN THAT CAN (AND HAS BROUGHT MANY) TO HEARING THE GOSPEL, AND SAVED MANY. REMEMBER, MILLIONS WERE SAVED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT AND NEVER KNEW THE OBJECT OF THEIR JUSTIFICATION UNTIL THEY LEFT THEIR BODIES. They NEVER HEARD THE GOSPEL "AS WE THINK AND DEMAND IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE PREACHED. THEY NEVER EVEN HEARD THE NAME "YASHUA." ONLY 1 PERSON HAD THE GOSPEL preached to them , and even then, no mention of Lord Yeshua., bit saved by grace through faith, justification to life , and Christs imputed righteousness. GALATIONS says God preached the gospel to Abraham. But not anyone else in the Old Testament. Yes they were justified by grace through faith when they believed God, and accounted as righteous. But not one KNEW THE OBJECT OF THEIR SALVATION UNTIL THEY LEFT THEIR BODIES.

We could be inside a giant air bag. There is no proof that it didn't inflate as fast as a supplemental restraint system in a car. Just because light travels at a certain speed, and it takes light billions of years to travel the distances inside the air bag to objects far from us, doesn't mean it took them billions of years to be created or end up where they are now relative to our position.
The angels were created before the physical universe(Job 38:7). The sin of the angels which left their first estate(Jude 6) is what caused Genesis 1:2. The gentleman at 50:12 identified this.

Dr. Ross is so patient when Easley tries to argue, absurdly, that just because God does miracles therefore we can't know anything. Easley is civil, charitable and respectful and should be commended for that. But his argument is frustratingly obtuse.
At 1:13:30 speaking of the infinite God, Dr. Michael Easley asks, "What was God doing for the last trillion years [before the creation]?" There was no trillion years. Since Einstein, we know time is a property of this creation. Time, space, energy, and matter were all created at the same instant. Young or old Earth, there was no time before the creation of our Universe. I like Dr. Michael Easley's "island thought experiment," however, the Bible says the creation itself is a testament of God. "The Heavens declare the Glory of God!"

The problem with trying to shoehorn into the text something that supports our modern western views is that the writer wasn't even thinking in those terms. Nor was God. When you open the Bible, you're looking at an ancient text that makes a series of truth claims; it's not about linear order, logical dependence, time measurements, cause/effect, or who struck John. It's not about any of that, so trying to make it something it wasn't meant to be is to run in circles and never get to any consensus. You also have the problem of translating from one language into another. Words can be approximated, or even exactly rendered. But meaning is more than just the words used to transmit it. "He rubs me the wrong way" can be translated into any language, but if you're from a culture and time period that doesn't use that phrase, how would you ever understand it? We are 3,000 years removed from the author(s), and their worldview wasn't ours. If you asked them if they were using a "historical, literal, grammatical hermeneutic," they'd just walk away. They told stories, constructed narratives, related their readers to things contemporary to them, not to us. Unless we have the ancient Jew living in our heads, we're going to go off in directions they wouldn't know.
There is a difference between make and create. Make means to transform for service, but create means to form from nothing. The darkness upon the face of the deep is the darkness on the sea floor not the surface. The first day is the day the earth's surface of the continents was exposed to a pre existing sun as the water was drained into the new opening basins. Not the creation of the light source. The universe was created in the beginning but the planets were made in 6 days.
God breaks laws of physics in the OT & NT. He tells nature what to do, He made good wine immediately instead of a long time, He made the sun go backwards and made decayed people come back to life. We don’t need a long time to have what we need. He says with reference to creation days that the Sabbath is patterned after the days of creation. For in six days God created the heavens and the earth and rested on the 7th day. So, we should wait 60 millions of years and then rest for 10 millions? He needs to reconcile that.

Surely from the perspective of the sun we're still in the first day...? We cannot understand so much. As the all-powerful Creator of time - (able to stop time at any and every moment He may so wish to, at random and from any perspective) - God's creation's first moments in time, (just as any others He so wishes) - and just as the last moments of time before its final transmogrification into 'timelessness' is still happening now... Still happening NOW in His consciousness - which is where all physical matter is situated. Christ is material and spiritual and is the Alpha and the Omega... And He - the Word - has come for us all. The current ignorance of a faithful man is therefore in many ways his state of perfect bliss - the individual state of awe and wonder (ego-loss) at the Beauty of his humble predicament - and this joyous predicament in the hands of the Father's Glory, once grasped, is his astonishing reward... This is the blessing - the blessing of faith and trust - the gift of eternal GRACE bestowed on us by the loving God, Father, Master, Teacher and Friend - through Jesus Christ, the model of His Righteousness - and ours - the only Saviour and Hope. God Bless and see you up there (back here) someday to discuss these thoughts!! (Deo Volente).

This will come across negatively. Though Dr. Easley is a very nice guy, he seems uncomfortable and seems to enjoy being free to act foolish or at least acting like ignorance is bliss. Creation gave us the ability to be deductive and inductive. Don't waste all of that.. Ya Bless...
The repetitive grammar of a day and a night day one a day and a night day two makes the explanation inescapably a 24-hour period. But how could the 7th day possibly be terminated thus?! It can't! God continues His rest!
Although I always enjoy watching these weekly, I am disheartened that since this topic is indeed non-essential, the podcast came across to me as “man-centered” rather than “Spirit centered.” I began to feel disheartened as the conversations became more adversarial in what may appear subtly….but, my tears were not the tears of joy but of “My God, My God.” Please know this feedback is given out of Love.
What here makes you disheartened, friend? C'mon, as Christians, we should be able to have these kinds of conversations without it effecting your spirit and love for The Lord. Spiritual praise and praising The Lord is wonderful and important, but at a certain point, you should have real reasons why you actually believe what you believe, instead of just gong with it because "it all sounds good and I just want to praise The Lord and sing Him praises all day". There's many of us who came to The Lord and His all mighty nature through the lens of science, logic, and other reasons that aren't "well I was raised in a church". I think God Himself, calls upon us to actually believe what we believe, instead of having blind faith, as long as it is still centered around The Lord Himself. I have to ask, do you just not ever have philosophical conversations with friends or family about how all things work? That's one of my favorite parts of God. Thinking about how He does things, and what anything is, is just extremely fascinating to hear and think about. Remember, God wants us to evolve and create. We can't do that if we just sit down in a Church all day and praise God from sun up to sun down. You also praise The Lord by growing your community and growing as a thinking person, as long as God is ALWAYS at the center of your life, and what these gentleman are doing, is keeping God at the forefront of their lives. God bless, friend!

why don't you just see what the facts say and decide if you still want to accept your mythical beliefs? you don't need tyson to learn what the scientific evidence says.
regretfully (or thankfully) Tyson is busy with reality. That is not to say that it would not be entertaining.

Rick Smalley the Nobel prize-winning scientist on Nano technology who was once an atheist and came to faith very late in his life told James Tour, Hugh Ross is the smartest man I ever met. I would say he's one of the most humble as well. He is a God-given gift to the body of Christ, thank you Lord Jesus.
Wow, what is the context of this retelling? (When did it take place, and is the story from Dr. Tour's or Dr. Smalley's perspective?) I have often hoped and wondered if Dr. Tour and Dr. Ross would ever collaborate in a group interview format, similar to the incredible conversation I heard between Dr. William Lane Craig and Dr. Ross on RUclips.
Fascinating conversation! Thank you for having. All concur with a barely comprehensible God, and Biblical inerrancy. Let the interpretation begin!
Am a follower of Dr. Ross. He appeals to a STEM mind with logical and scientific explanation.
you need earth to have been created just for you to feel special
@@AMC2283ha. Try the entire universe
I've been listening to reading Hugh Ross for nearly 30 years. I've been studying the Bible for 45 years. I've gone to seminary and earned several degrees. In all that time, I've not seen anything to refute Dr. Ross's views. It honors Scripture and makes sense of the science we are continuing to discover. The "two books" is an amazing position to use employ in a discussion with atheists. Hugh is a gift from God. Not saying the other gentleman is not, but his reasoning is not as sound.
Science help correct the view that the early church believed the scriptures taught geocentricity. Aristotles geocentric view was held for almost 1500 years. Based on a skewed interpretation of scripture.
Hugh, I fear, will not be truly appreciated until after his passing..
I was just thinking of this. I hope that there are some young physicists learning from his fine example.
🇹🇹 Sheesh I sure hope not...😭
Dr Ross clearly dominated this debate. The other position was defended so weak, it’s hard to believe how this view is still so resolutely held - other than presupposition bias. Thank you Dr Ross.
I would say this was far too casual to call a debate; it's more like a discussion from differing viewpoints. Dr. Ross also had the floor far more than anyone else (which I don't mind, given how interesting and well spoken the things he had to say are).
The young earth version of history and science is ridiculous and I don't know how millions of Americans can still believe in young earth... you can argue about how exactly creation happened but you can't argue it's only 6000yrs ago
a great debate. I'm always amazed at how much Ross knows...incredible.
Not much of a debate, more of a discussion, which I welcome.
Christ takes it Seriously. He says liars aren't getting into heaven. Evolution is lies. There's nothing that proves evolution. The more technology improves the more the bible proves the Bible is correct. And everything was created at the same time in 6 24 hour days almost 6000 years ago.
Another vote for Dr Ross.
That was good. Thank you. I want more Young vs. Old Creationists. Tend toward Young but seek truth.
I commend your honesty to seek truth, whether it agrees with your preconceived beliefs or not. I wish more people could admit they could possibly be wrong.
How do they explain the sin aspects that Adam was the first human to be created. Why would Moses have confused us. Problem is, there's no verse in the Bible saying that the there was anyone else before Adam. Peter doesn't refer to a pre-Adamic world he was referring to the days of Noah, at least that how I understand it. That would be the only mention of it if Ross is correct..
Mind you I haven't watched this but will soon, to see if the scriptures are made to fit or not..
@@Event_201 I don’t think your theology of the Bible is the one we should all have. We shouldn’t look at the Bible as an infallible book that describes every single thing about the world. We should view it as a compilation of multiple different books with each of their own genres and stories. If you take the Bible literally, you’re going to miss so much value of it. There are fables, myths, narratives, poems, parables, laws, wisdom, etc. The Bible wasn’t composed by one author with one underlying concept in mind, it was composed by multiple different authors across hundreds of years. Not all of them will have the same rhetorical goals. Genesis describes the creation and flood myth which was an etiology for explaining how humans came about, why snakes don’t have legs and why they’re dangerous, why women experience childbirth. The flood myth represents rebirth and the power dynamic between god and humans. If we take these forms of literature to be literal, we lose the intended meaning. The story of Adam’s and Eve was meant to show how humanity was good until we chose to disobey god and be punished to inhabit the world without him. As for old earth, we reached that conclusion with science. We can’t use the Bible to make presuppositions and make reality fit it. We should look at the world that exists and observe it to make conclusions. You forget, god made the world, he didn’t write the Bible. The world tells us that it’s very old and we shouldn’t make the facts conform to fit the Bible. We should reinterpret the Bible in ways that fit the world god made for us. Earth is gods creation, while the Bible is man’s word about god. Would you believe that god wants to deceive us by making the earth old, or do you think the ancient people have deceived us into thinking the earth is young. I trust in god, because he made the earth for us to inhabit and to learn.

Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today.
The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is:
Sunrise to sunset
Sunset to next sunset
Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ).
We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast.
Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains".
The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours.
Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
Only God knows how old. But it is very very old, that is clear to me.
Four Nobel prizes on the way! Amazing!
Hugh Ross is the man!
But What Hugh is saying that God loves to Greate and that makes sense to me he is What we call an Artist and in he's image is us.

I wish I had the humility of Dr. Ross. I’m a physicist myself and I deal with this argument from YEC Christians online, “science can’t be trusted because it’s always changing”. I can’t hold my temper back. I end up telling them that they’re stupid and that they don’t know what they’re talking about because they’re not scientists and they don’t get it. Science doesn’t change. It just gets more and more precise with new discoveries. The mathematical models are modified in order to explain new phenomena that arise from more precise measurements. We are without excuse not because of hearing the word of God, but because God reveals himself through his creation. That is how I discovered God, I saw him staring back at me in the telescope and in the microscope.
For perspective, no matter how educated or our lot on earth, we are all equal through the Blood. When I see someone less fortunate I just remind myself, by the Grace of God, there go I.
Woe unto you scribes!
I truly believe math, chemistry, biology, science in general really are Gods language he wrote for us here.
Claiming that young earth creationists, don't know science is a hottie, an arrogant statement, brother. Maybe they disagree with you and have a different interpretation of the data,
If someone returned your insults by saying, you don't know science, you would be furious. I've watched countless debates. And in my well, educated and experienced mind, I've come to the opposite conclusion of you. That doesn't make me stupid.
And I know you're trying to claim intellectual honesty and saying that you enjoy Dr. Ross because of his humility.
So I'm glad you're attempting to turn over a new leaf. But have you ever even thought for one second that you possibly could be wrong about this?
Have you read any books by Henry Morris at all? Because I think he would rock your world.
@@askbrettmanning Yes sir, I have read all of Henry Morris's books. I used to be a YEC Christian with a fundamentalist Southern Baptist Church in a small country town in rural Indiana. I was inspired to become a scientist because I wanted to learn more about God's creation. However, I became disappointed while I was studying secular material in physics and astronomy because of the light travel problem and the laws of radioactive decay. I was stubborn and didn't want to accept the majority interpretation of the data. Instead of praying and searching the Bible for answers, I searched for other YEC scientists. I found Chuck Missler. I loved Chuck. Chuck introduced me to the book, "In Six Days: Why 50 Scientists Choose to Believe in Creation" by John F. Ashton Ph.D. Chuck also introduced me to Barry Setterfield and his work with the speed of light decreasing. As I studied Barry's calculations, I realized that he was ignoring the error bars in each of the light measurements beginning with Roemer in 1676 by his observations of the eclipses of Jupiter's moon Io. Barry concluded that the speed of light would have to be a billion times faster when God created the universe in order to circumnavigate the light travel problem. I'm a physicist and I know that general relativity indicates that if the speed of light was a billion times faster in the past that the cosmic microwave background radiation would be far different than what COBE detected. Furthermore with E=mc2, the energy level with light being a billion times faster would be way to high for stars and galaxies to form. I then started to look at Danny Faulkner and his theory to resolve the light travel problem, but Danny's concept of logic driven deduction based upon the one-way speed of light never being measured left me squinting my eyes as a leap of faith and not a scientific theory. I was left disappointed but I remained a YEC Christian by clinging to the belief that God can create in any way that he wants to and it doesn't matter if we understand it or not. Then I met Hugh Ross and through his humility and guidance, I started to look at the Book of Scripture instead of the Book of Nature. I studied all of the creation scriptures in Genesis, Job, and Psalms. Psalm 104 really made me reevaluate my YEC belief. Job 38 showed me a whole new way of interpreting Genesis 1:7. I then went to Hugh's Reasons to Believe website and consumed as much material as I could assimilate. Hugh showed me a whole new way to interpret Genesis 1 that changed my respect and awe at God's creation. I am not a patient man nor am I humble enough to debate my former YEC Christians. It took me over two decades to come to the point that I'm at now. You called me arrogant and suggested that I'm only trying to be intellectually honest. I apologize that my previous post came across that way to you. It was not my intention. I know that you said that you have listened to many debates, but that is not how you learn about the science. Debates are not fact checked, and even though Hugh tries to fact check Faulkner and Stinger while debating them he is limited by time. I have spent my entire life with my head buried in physics and astronomy books studying the science. Just because something sounds scientific doesn't mean that it is. One must look at the data objectively without bias.
Easley was waaaaay out of his league in this conversation.
Funny, they are asking Hugh Ross about the book of Job, while acting like Job's friends 🧡

For some YECs, the several recreation events pose a problem. They deny death exists in the past. Death only started from the Fall. That’s a headache for them.
No where in the Bible does it sat that
Romans 5:12 “Through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin death, and so death passed to all mankind in turn.” This is clear death came to “all mankind”, not animals. Why would God kill animals due to man’s sin? YEC claim about mankind killing animals due to sin is just not in the Bible.
Predator and prey in balance is good and God said it was good. Predator play a key role in keeping ecosystems healthy. They help keep deer and elk populations in check, which can benefit many other plant and animal species. The carcasses of their prey a lso help to redistribute nutrients and provide food for other wildlife species. Psalms 147:9, Job 12:7-10

Amen to that. If you hold a gun to my head and make me choose, I would pick old earth. But it's indeed very interesting that "recorded history" is 6,000 years roughly.
And, carbon dating could very well be inaccurate. They carbon dated rocks from the Mt St Helens eruption in 1980. They knew the rock was 10 years old. But the carbon dating showed a few million years. And carbon dating science says that it's nearly impossible to accurately date things less than 50,000 years old.
In any case, God bless you, brother!

But it's not a hill to die on imo, the gospel of Christ is.
@@robbienl8176 Amen Jesus is everything. Sometimes people are taught YEC, and then study astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology and learn the age calculated appears to be multiple billions of years old. What I have found people I know, is that it can have an effect of undermining faith.
I don't think it should. It is what it is, and if the Earth is very young, or ancient, it matters not - what matters is that God created, with intention, and incredible design. And He created us as humans in His image and loves us.
We have the opportunity to observe (JWST, Hubble, NuSTAR) galaxies forming millions of light years away - that's a glimpse of God's creative genius at work. No matter where we look in the universe or deep into a cell with a microscope, we see as Hugh Ross said, the "fingerprints of God."
@@NickB1121after looking it up, it wasn’t carbon dating, it was potassium-argon. Additionally, the lab they tested it at specifically stated that samples under 2 million years old would not produce accurate results. The researchers who tested it were young earth creationist and probably clever enough to know this. It seems as though there was bias in his research, as there tends to be with young earthers.

Funny thing is is that all the dating methods assume the scientific method used isn't merely reporting the same error, due to variables unknown.
The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples.
Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth. Instead, it has helped in the discovery of cosmic phenomena, such as the 21-centimeter H I line, which is important for understanding the structure and dynamics of our galaxy3.
The age of the Earth is a result of extensive research using various radiometric dating methods, including uranium-lead dating, which has provided consistent results pointing to the Earth being over four and a half billion years old
4.543 billion years
Much older

I'm enjoying this talk immensely. Particles do one thing when looking and another when not? Is this not the mystery that we can't know everything.
I have always believed the Bible. As I grew older and understood more, I saw how science confirmed the Bible. I also believe the Bible clearly states a six day creation. And 4000 years since Adam is what Jesus believed. We have a genealogy that goes back to Adam 6000 years ago. So, I’m going to continue to believe that God is all powerful, and knows what has happened, as well as what is happening today and the future.
The Earth is exactly 4.54 billion years old. This has been proven many ways. One of the ways is called radio spectroscopy. This is the study of how electrons are distributed around the nucleus in an atom. Using radio spectroscopy on earth rocks indicates the age of the rocks and thus the Earth. These conclusions are as indisputable as 1 + 1 = 2. If you don't understand the science behind it there are many courses you can take to learn. Don't waste your time with fantasy when facts are readily available
" I saw how science confirmed the Bible" You may need a new prescription for your spectacles.
The assumption that the genealogies in scripture are exhaustive rather than indicative would seem to lead to that conclusion, but if God created the earth and the universe in such a way as to mislead people in regard to its origin, then we've got a problem with his righteousness, and the people of Romans 1:20 would have an excuse.

Does anybody know of anyone who has spoken about the apparent preexisting water in the Genesis account.
Dr. Ross addresses that in many of his books: the original conditions on earth were darkness because of a thick atmosphere and water covering the earth and the Spirit of God hovering over the water.
The lynch pin of this debate seems to me to be centered on whether the text of Genesis allows for different definitions in the amount of time for a day, i.e. always 24 hrs or not necessarily definitive... didn't really get resolved during this discussion.
Ross should speak with Jason Lisle.
From a Christian perspective, it’s very easy to disprove evolution. For evolution to be true, sin would have to have existed before Adam, and it didn’t, easy peasy.
HOW RELIABLE ARE STRONGS,THAYERS AND YOUNG’S CONCORDANCES.? Which is most reliable? Is there something more reliable?
Well, I'm not a physicist of any sort. I just can't believe a God who's eternal decided to do something creative. 6,000 or 10,000 years ago. It is world without end. And the ancient worlds are being revealed. They were destroyed, and so will the world's of old. The beautiful thing I do know is when a soul comes to Christ, he or she is a new Creation in Christ Jesus. A new heaven and a new earth is coming. AMEN

I suspect that the conditions during the Creation and the rapid expansion of the universe introduced complex time dilation effects that we do not yet fully understand. I propose that both 13.8 billion years (cosmological time) and approximately 7,000 years (Earth time) could be correct. This would depend on a more complete understanding of time dilation, particularly under the extreme conditions of the Big Bang and its rapid expansion.
Read the Bible:
Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today.
The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is:
Sunrise to sunset
Sunset to next sunset
Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ).
We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast.
Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains".
The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours.
Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
As I listen to many scientists physicists cosmologist microbiologists and theologians who have all different views on what reality is and how it got here.
God is not the author of confusion, and yet even the most scholarly Christians argue about the very fundamental tenets of the Christian faith. Therefore no God.
@@markb3786
I would agree God's not the author of confusion. He's not confused about what he did, but men seem to not be able to get things right whether it's about God or the origins of the universe.
The part about the physical sciences that they're only taking consideration material things.
They disregard all the other science is that except the real possibility.
Wonderful. Thank you. My view: God could have done everything in the thinnest slice of an attosecond or over billion of years. I do think that God rested from creating new life on Earth on the 7th day and that we are still in the 7th day of Genesis creation. And the 7th day of creation implies the days of creation in Genesis are longer than 24 hours or even thousands of years. Thanks again.
It's not that the science is wrong, it's the scientists adding assumptions to make their philosophy correct. Much of the science is based on many assumptions.
Basically, the more we find out the more we know we don't know.
The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples.
Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth. Instead, it has helped in the discovery of cosmic phenomena, such as the 21-centimeter H I line, which is important for understanding the structure and dynamics of our galaxy3.
The age of the Earth is a result of extensive research using various radiometric dating methods, including uranium-lead dating, which has provided consistent results pointing to the Earth being over four and a half billion years old

Assumed. Everything is assumed. Not sure what you are missing. Everything is based on pre-suppositions.
There are plenty of other qualified scientists that have many other differing opinions.

I thought the statement about the dog kind was a great thing to talk about and the genetics and speciation in a short time period that was observable. But Ross seemed to almost brush that off and think of it as an anomaly. But if we look at all animals we see it maybe not to that huge of an extent but it's there. And doing it naturally over a few thousand years isn't that hard to believe. We even see hybridization naturally and new species now that pop up in short periods of time.
JWST has scientists thinking that the universe is close to 20 billion years old now.
One or two who have misinterpreted the data are making that claim for clicks from people who haven't studied star-forming in galaxy mergers, but no serious cosmologists takes these claims seriously.
No.
New things must just be studied and understood. New things need to be peer reviewed. We have the Hubble telescope, and Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). These tools and other tools have measured the universe. The universe (time, space, and matter) came into existence 13.813 (±0.038) billion years ago

If God created the universe before or during day one. Then what happened on day four?
I'm really wondering what the old earther's possition is on this. 👍
On Day 1 the Bible states, “Let there be light”. Genesis 1:3.
On Day 4 the Bible states "Let there be lights". Genesis 1:14.
In both examples, the Bible does not state that God “Created” or made the light / lights at this point.
The words Create (bara) nor Made (asah) are not used here.
The text simply states, “let there be.”
The Hebrew word for made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action. Genesis 1:16-18 are parenthetical statements that indicate that the sun, moon, and stars had been made sometime in the past.
IN THE BEGINNING!
Several Bible translations wrongly add the words “and” and “then” to the beginning of verse 16 causing problems.
Why allow these lights, Sun, and Moon, to be seen now on Day 4?
To mark for "seasons", "days" (24 hours), and "years".
Again, why?
The animals to come after day 4 need them for migration, hibernation, etc.
The language also “implies” that these lights were not visible prior to this day / period of time.
It does NOT mean that the Sun and Moon were “not” there.
Ever get a sunburn on a cloudy day when you could not see the Sun?
Does the Sun need to be visible for solar radiation to permeate a translucent atmosphere and allow for microbial life and photosynthesis?
We know that the oxygen level of the Earth increased changing the atmosphere from translucent, can’t see the Sun or Moon, to transparent, where you can see them both.
This transformation in visual clarity caused by an increase in oxygen in the atmosphere has been proven in the lab
The solar system is completely dependent on the gravity from the Sun.
It is impossible for a solar system to form if the Sun did not exist until the fourth day.
Plants need the Sun for photosynthesis.
Land plants came on day 3, right?
Did fruit trees sprout from seedlings to mature fruit bearing trees in less than 24 hours on Day 3? - No.
No, Day 3 has to be longer than 24 hours.
In fact, we now know that land plants came 1.2 billion years ago.
Sea animals (Avalon explosion) came 575 million years ago.
Plants were abundant on land, ~600 million years before sea animals.

The Bible has been scientifically proven correct again!
Let there be light, the world create is not there.

You have some frame of reference wrong. Also Genesis is not the oldest book of the Bible, Job is, so to understand Genesis, must read Job first. 1) Biblical Hebrew has a smaller vocabulary than English. In biblical Hebrew, there is no word for universe. Instead, the Hebrew phrase that is translated “the heavens and the earth” is used to refer to the universe-the entirety of physical reality. The phrase is used thirteen times in the Old Testa , always referring to all matter, energy, space, and time in the universe. 2) The Genesis says "let there be light", the word create is NOT in the text. Job tells us what is "let there be light". Job 38:9 when I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it in thick darkness. The cloud make it dark, Genesis 1:2 tells you the frame of reference above the waters on Earth. So the two tell use the cloud went from dark to lighter. The clear sky does not come till " moon to mark the seasons" now with have blue sky.

It was the "appearance of age" in so many aspects of creation that finally caused me to stop with the young earth view. I could not square God building deceit into His creation. Like he painted a masterful Trompe L'oiel ceiling over our heads to fool us when we were able to figure enough things out. When I came to that cul-de-sac I had to say, look, maybe we took a wrong turn if our understanding requires us to see God as the ultimate Special FX artist or a cosmic counterfeiter. I had to conclude that the fault was in our understanding rather than attributing deceit to our Creator God.
appearance of age -= God lie and deceived. NO!

Thank you for your thoughts. We hear about the speed of light and the 4th day, but we don’t hear much about the possibility of the speed and motion of space itself. Does space move as water currents wherein light is traveling as plankton in ocean water? What was happening in the physical universe in Genesis 1:2? What does Genesis 1:2 imply to our finite scientific reasoning? (finite fools think therefore infinite is not?) How can you measure your speed in an ocean full of currents when you don’t have a single point of reference? Therefore our only true point of reference is God Himself.

Can someone confirm for me if Dr Ross believes Adam was literally created out of the dust of the earth ?
Yes Dr Ross teaches Adam was Created brand new from the dust , and Eve from his side. And does not in any way hold to a theistic evolutionary process.
@@Terrylb285 Thank you that, I'm pressed for time to find this follow up answer on my own, but I've heard that Dr William Lane Craig is kind of fuzzy or blurry on Adam also being created from dust, what have you heard ?
@@flolou8496 Willian lane Craig I also believe is fuzzy, he doesn’t fully endorse theistic evolution, but also is not anti evolution. But remember he is not a scientist but an apologetic philosopher. He leaves the door open for Adam being part of the Homo Heidelbergensis. But he is one of the best on defending the kalam cosmological argument. Even the great C S Lewis in the possibility of theistic evolution. But Dr Ross takes a very strong stance against Theistic Evolution.
There are multiple views on original sin, so another origins/creation/evolution perspective that challenges the Calvinistic version is not controversial. Theistic evolution is completely compatible with Scripture.
When God created the heavens -namely the universe of stars etc., He stretched it out, a process that distorts time.
No, it doesn't.
What is time without the sun and moon? Both were not created until day 4. We calculate time based off rotation of the earth around sun and moon.
The Sun and moon were allowed to be seen from the surface of the Earth on day 4. The Hebrew word for made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action. Genesis 1:16-18 are parenthetical statements that indicate that the sun, moon, and stars had been made sometime in the past.
Quote from you, "We calculate time based off rotation of the earth around sun and moon."
Partially correct.
The Earth and Moon rotate together around the Sun.
The Moon rotates around the Earth.
The Sun does not rise and set. The Earth revolves creating the appearance of the Sun rising/setting.
You cannot have "evening and morning" without the Sun on days 1, 2, and 3 if the Sun was not Created until day 4.
The Sun and Moon were not formed at the same time.
The Sun was formed first in order for the solar system to form.
The Moon was not formed until after the merger of the planet Theia and the proto-Earth.
The debris in space from this collision formed the Moon.

I would argue that from this passage, we have no indication to suggest they were made visible rather than created. If you want to argue the sun was made first at the beginning of day 4, I can see that.
Evening and morning without the sun on day 1 is the mystery of God's word I'm getting at. This is why I believe it's impossible for humans to accurately radiologically date earth's minerals.

There is no such thing as a word for word translation of the Ancient Biblical text in any modern language.
It is thought for thought at best!
The Sun and moon were allowed to be seen from the surface of the Earth on day 4. The atmosphere changed from translucent to transparent. We know that now because of the oxygen content on the early Earth.
Does the Bible talk about neutrinos which are the most abundant particles that have mass in the Universe? NO.
How about microwaves? Nope.
The Hebrew word for made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action. Genesis 1:16-18 are parenthetical statements that indicate that the sun, moon, and stars had been made sometime in the past.
It was written in Hebrew, not English.
"made (asah) in Genesis 1:16 is in the verb form that denotes completed action."
Did they have past tense in Ancient Hebrew?
NO!
They only had perfect and imperfect tenses!
"verb form that denotes completed action"
The Hebrew word for Create (bara) is only used three times in Genesis 1. It is NOT used here.
Do you know what parenthetical means?
A parenthetical statement is one that explains or qualifies something.
Why do you waste my time?
1) Young Earth creationism has simply failed every empirical test that mainstream science demands.
2) There are no serious peer reviewed young Earth creationist science papers.
3) There are no scientists studying “young Earth creationism” in any secular research center in the world.
4) Why? Because the Earth is 4.5662 +/‐ 0.0001 billion years old.
5) All three of these indicate that the universe came into existence billions of years ago.
a) The “Sloan Digital Sky Survey”
b) The “Two Degree Deep Sky Survey”
c) The “WMAP,” which is the most accurate map of the radiation left over from the Creation event.
6) There are 6 independent measures for the date of rock.
a) 2 Uranium dates:
‐ Uranium -235 decays into lead -207
‐ Uranium -238 decays into lead -206
b) 1 Thorium date.
‐ Thorium -232 decays into lead -208
c) ALL 3 of these listed Lead dates come to the same result; 4.5662 +/- 0.0001 billion years. Therefore, the Earth is ~4.5662 +/- 0.0001 billion years old.
7) None of this is a salvation issue.
8) The Bible remains the inerrant word of God.

I think for me, the young Earth creation theory fit better with my thinking because the alternative for a long time was evolutionary billions of years. Billions of years, theistic creation is something I will think on. I'm not adverse to it because I think God can create anything to be any age, but God is also outside of space and time, so billions of years are nothing to Him. It isn't something that rocks my faith, but it does give me more to think on, and that's exciting because I think people who worship Science will come to find God the more they study.
Yes,i think you make two great points,we are talking earth time,and the heavenly realm of spirit beings is outside of that,so in their time frame just a few days maybe for creative activity?
We already know that time dilation when close to large masses is real in this universe,we humans have a problem with long creation time,he does not.We shouldn't have a problem we were all asleep!!

Wow!!! Thank you all for getting together and respectfully discussing one of the most interesting subjects of the Bible! You all were able to sum up both sides in around an hour, awesome! I saw some commonalities here, namely (1) God didn’t need to create with evolution, (2) God can move in and out of space-time and perform true miracles like giving someone new eyes and walking on water, (3) the Bible is the authoritative Word of God.
It seems the big difference of opinion, from Dr. E and Dr. R, is around the question of whether a day was a day, or millions of years periods of time. It would require a deeper look into the meaning of day, and evening and morning. Can we ever know “for sure” the length of those days?
I think what matters most is the transition between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. If it is possible, from a literal reading, that Genesis 1:1 was a separate event from Genesis 1:2, then we have the “possibility” of an old creation. Whether the days that followed were millions of years or 24 hours, they would still be a separate event from the original older creation event.
Our Bible translations make this difficult to interpret. Looking at 5 major translations: the NASB ‘95 and ESV (most literal) start Genesis 1:2 as a brand new sentence, which makes it easy for me to see it as separate event. However, the KJB, NIV, and NASB ‘20 show Genesis 1:2 starting with “And” and “Now”, implying that it could be just further describing the Genesis 1:1 event.
Whatever the case, I’m ok with the idea that God made things in 24 hours, or epochs of time, either of which I think is possible. I’d really love to be comfortable with the idea that God was doing things long before the last ice age, like Darren said. I think that would not only help us better understand what we see in the sky, but also honor how big and awesome our God really is.
Thanks again for the great talk!!!

We must address the issue that all of these radioisotope dating systems have several assumptions being made for the researchers to come to their conclusions, any one of which if wrong, would throw off the entire scheme.
@@statutesofthelord they just keep finding older rocks.... It's not some mystery

Instead of fighting your Creator - Jesus Christ, who spoke this world into existence, why not love and follow him?
I have always thought that the time descrepency issue could be resolved by what we know now as time dialation...god was creating faster than the speed of light...from everything within what was bieng createds point of view billions of years passed...someone that is good at adding numbers to letters could figure it out
When you run the Lorentz transformations, you quickly discover that's not how time dilation works. In fact time dilation observed in supernovae within the Hubble flow as well as the damped random walk in quasars during cosmic noon confirm the FLRW/ΛCDM model for the expansion history of the universe and point to an origin about 13.8 billion years ago.
Speed of light as not changed.

The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is:
Sunrise to sunset
Sunset to next sunset

About 6000 years. That's why there are unmineralized dinosaur bones -- the original biological material of the animals, and soft tissue, and C14 in the same, as well as C14 in oil, coal, diamonds fossils which would not be there anymore if those things were really millions of years old.
So, millions of scientists all around the world are either wrong or lying. Which one?
Carbon 14 (C14) is formed by the collision of a neutron with Nitrogen 14 (N14) thus knocking out a proton and retaining the neutron similar to a classic billiard ball collision with reverse English being skillfully applied to the cue ball. C14 is formed constantly due to physical and chemical interactions with cosmic ray particles colliding with the Earth’s atmosphere. Every second over 100,000 cosmic ray particles collide with one square meter of Earth’s atmosphere. These cosmic ray particles come from supernovas and other astronomical events and consist of atomic nuclei and nucleons, such as protons, neutrons, and helium. They are mostly made of protons (89%), which are the nuclei of hydrogen, the most common element in the universe. Cosmic rays also contain 10% helium nuclei and 1% heavier nuclei, including uranium. The same process of high energy nucleons interacting with Nitrogen takes place in the mantle of the Earth too; thus, forming C14 within the mantle. So, how does C14 get into diamonds? By the same process that occurs in the atmosphere. Through subduction of the ocean floor, Nitrogen is introduced to the mantle and through the radioactive decay of Uranium and Thorium within the mantle high energy nucleons are created which interact with the Nitrogen thus forming C14 within anything that contains Nitrogen within the mantle. Diamonds and graphite are formed in the mantle. The most common impurity in the growth of diamonds is nitrogen. Nitrogen gives the appearance of yellow or brown hues, Boron is responsible for blue hues, plastic deformation can cause pink hues and irradiation can result in green hues in diamonds. High energy nucleons pass through the carbon matrix of diamonds and interact with the Nitrogen impurities thus forming C14 all throughout the growth of the diamonds from start to finish; therefore, it is common to find a small amount of C14 that had been formed within the last 10,000 years of the diamond’s growth process. Nitrogen makes up 78% of the atmosphere; therefore, it's everywhere on the surface of the Earth, in the crust and in the mantle. The soft tissue in dinosaur bones that you mentioned was discovered by Mary Schweitzer. They were not 'unmineralized dinosaur bones', they were soaked in an acid bath that demineralized them after 7 days. It is an intriguing discovery. However, in no way does it refute all of the data collected by geologists, archeologists and paleontologists over the last two centuries. Mary Schweitzer herself, a professed Christian, said that it forces scientists to reexamine the process of fossilization, not that it completely upends all of geology and paleontology.

"Morning and evening were the first day" means a 24 hour day. Same goes for the following days of creation, followed by the 7th day of God's rest. We know this, not just from the clear creation account, but also from Exodus 20:11 where we get our 7 day week. Nobody works for 6 million years and has a rest for 1 million years. "6 days" means 6×24 hour days.
The Bible teaches the earth is about 6000 years old through the line of descendants from Adam to Noah, and from Noah to Jesus, who we know existed about 2000 years ago.
And "day" in "In the day that the Lord made the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 2:4) means "when" or 'in the era', as in "back in the day" or "in my father's day", and has nothing to do with a timespan.

Sorry everyone but Dr. Ross is reasonable and rational in this discussion. I totally respect and admire Dr. Easley.
The oldest stars we see is roughly 6000 years old. And ones that are farther we can't see yet.
So take the years away times the speed of light 186000 miles per second. This is the 2 way speed of light so it could be substantially faster upon later technology.
Times this speed by the amount of seconds in 6000 years
There are 31536000 seconds in a year
So this means there are
189,216,000,000 seconds in 6000 years
So take that number and times it by the current speed of light.
3.5194176000000000E16 miles away.
The moon is said to be 238900 miles away
So a star that is 6000 light years away is equal to going to the moon
147,874,689,075.6 times.

so it's cosmic rays not allowing us to live 900 yrs, not the breaking down of the world due to sin and things getting worse not better due to sin?

The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples.
Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth. Instead, it has helped in the discovery of cosmic phenomena, such as the 21-centimeter H I line, which is important for understanding the structure and dynamics of our galaxy3.

and why did rocks, at Mt St Helens be dated to be real old when they had just been formed...
Because the researchers procedures were faulty. The problem is that they used potassium-argon dating for something very, very young in comparison with the decay rate of potassium. The lab the researchers tested this at explicitly stated that samples under 2mil years would not produce accurate results. Not all labs can afford state of the art technology which would be much more accurate. Additionally, the half-life of Potassium is about 1.25 billions years old, which is much better for dating very old samples rather than samples a decade old. In a decade, there would be slim to none traces of argon detectable in fresh potassium samples. What most likely happened is contamination from previous tested samples that linger in trace amounts. In a normal sample, it is negligible. In a young sample, it skews the data. Radioactive dating overall is a very trustworthy method for measuring absolute dates, but you have to know what you’re doing to get accurate results. This is why samples are cross referenced with other radioactive methods.
Why are Ross supporters so angry? Young Earthers are in the majority when it comes to believers, they simply are so ignorant not o know that.

Young or old Earth, there was no time before the creation of our Universe.

The problem with trying to shoehorn into the text something that supports our modern western views is that the writer wasn't even thinking in those terms. Nor was God. When you open the Bible, you're looking at an ancient text that makes a series of truth claims; it's not about linear order, logical dependence, time measurements, cause/effect, or who struck John. It's not about any of that, so trying to make it something it wasn't meant to be is to run in circles and never get to any consensus.
You also have the problem of translating from one language into another. Words can be approximated, or even exactly rendered. But meaning is more than just the words used to transmit it. "He rubs me the wrong way" can be translated into any language, but if you're from a culture and time period that doesn't use that phrase, how would you ever understand it?
We are 3,000 years removed from the author(s), and their worldview wasn't ours. If you asked them if they were using a "historical, literal, grammatical hermeneutic," they'd just walk away. They told stories, constructed narratives, related their readers to things contemporary to them, not to us. Unless we have the ancient Jew living in our heads, we're going to go off in directions they wouldn't know.
There is a difference between make and create. Make means to transform for service, but create means to form from nothing. The darkness upon the face of the deep is the darkness on the sea floor not the surface. The first day is the day the earth's surface of the continents was exposed to a pre existing sun as the water was drained into the new opening basins. Not the creation of the light source.
The universe was created in the beginning but the planets were made in 6 days.
God breaks laws of physics in the OT & NT. He tells nature what to do, He made good wine immediately instead of a long time, He made the sun go backwards and made decayed people come back to life. We don’t need a long time to have what we need. He says with reference to creation days that the Sabbath is patterned after the days of creation. For in six days God created the heavens and the earth and rested on the 7th day. So, we should wait 60 millions of years and then rest for 10 millions? He needs to reconcile that.

How, what?
Day is not the same as 24 hours, not in the past and not today.
The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is:
Sunrise to sunset
Sunset to next sunset
Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ).
We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast.
Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains".
The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours.
Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
Reading Genesis 1-11 as plain, literal whatever is bad hermeneutics.
Surely from the perspective of the sun we're still in the first day...?
We cannot understand so much.
As the all-powerful Creator of time - (able to stop time at any and every moment He may so wish to, at random and from any perspective) - God's creation's first moments in time, (just as any others He so wishes) - and just as the last moments of time before its final transmogrification into 'timelessness' is still happening now...
Still happening NOW in His consciousness - which is where all physical matter is situated.
Christ is material and spiritual and is the Alpha and the Omega... And He - the Word - has come for us all.
The current ignorance of a faithful man is therefore in many ways his state of perfect bliss - the individual state of awe and wonder (ego-loss) at the Beauty of his humble predicament - and this joyous predicament in the hands of the Father's Glory, once grasped, is his astonishing reward...
This is the blessing - the blessing of faith and trust - the gift of eternal GRACE bestowed on us by the loving God, Father, Master, Teacher and Friend - through Jesus Christ, the model of His Righteousness - and ours - the only Saviour and Hope.
God Bless and see you up there (back here) someday to discuss these thoughts!! (Deo Volente).
The age of the Earth, as determined by radiometric dating techniques, is approximately 4.54 billion years old12. This estimation is based on the decay rates of radioactive isotopes found in rocks and minerals on Earth and from meteorites. These methods measure the proportions of different isotopes, which decay at a predictable rate, allowing scientists to calculate the age of the samples.
Radio spectroscopy, specifically, has been instrumental in astronomical observations, but it is not directly used to determine the age of the Earth. Instead, it has helped in the discovery of cosmic phenomena, such as the 21-centimeter H I line, which is important for understanding the structure and dynamics of our galaxy3.
The age of the Earth is a result of extensive research using various radiometric dating methods, including uranium-lead dating, which has provided consistent results pointing to the Earth being over four and a half billion years old
@@chrismartino3519 what an amazing Father that made it all - just as we know…. All praise Him forever!
This will come across negatively. Though Dr. Easley is a very nice guy, he seems uncomfortable and seems to enjoy being free to act foolish or at least acting like ignorance is bliss. Creation gave us the ability to be deductive and inductive. Don't waste all of that..
Ya Bless...
The repetitive grammar of a day and a night day one a day and a night day two makes the explanation inescapably a 24-hour period. But how could the 7th day possibly be terminated thus?! It can't! God continues His rest!
Although I always enjoy watching these weekly, I am disheartened that since this topic is indeed non-essential, the podcast came across to me as “man-centered” rather than “Spirit centered.”
I began to feel disheartened as the conversations became more adversarial in what may appear subtly….but, my tears were not the tears of joy but of “My God, My God.”
Please know this feedback is given out of Love.
What here makes you disheartened, friend? C'mon, as Christians, we should be able to have these kinds of conversations without it effecting your spirit and love for The Lord. Spiritual praise and praising The Lord is wonderful and important, but at a certain point, you should have real reasons why you actually believe what you believe, instead of just gong with it because "it all sounds good and I just want to praise The Lord and sing Him praises all day". There's many of us who came to The Lord and His all mighty nature through the lens of science, logic, and other reasons that aren't "well I was raised in a church". I think God Himself, calls upon us to actually believe what we believe, instead of having blind faith, as long as it is still centered around The Lord Himself. I have to ask, do you just not ever have philosophical conversations with friends or family about how all things work? That's one of my favorite parts of God. Thinking about how He does things, and what anything is, is just extremely fascinating to hear and think about. Remember, God wants us to evolve and create. We can't do that if we just sit down in a Church all day and praise God from sun up to sun down. You also praise The Lord by growing your community and growing as a thinking person, as long as God is ALWAYS at the center of your life, and what these gentleman are doing, is keeping God at the forefront of their lives. God bless, friend!
