As a student of science, but raised ‘Christian’, my faith was always weak and conflicted. Hugh’s teachings completely unlocked my heart, now I’m a born-again Holy Spirit filled weapon for the Most High. I’ve seen/participated/received so many miracles since then..! 🎉🎉 Thank you, Hugh!!!❤ God is AMAZING and so GOOD!!
Watch the videos of Aron Ra for a REAL education on evolution.
Hugh Ross has his head up his ass.
@@howardpalys6929 lol ah yes, snail to whale evolution. Gotta love fairytales! Jesus loves you! ❤️
Evolution is a fact as well as a theory, fossils, genetics especially beneficial mutations, meteorology, geology, paleontology, dendochrontology, anthropology, archeology, zoology, mythology, chemistry, physics and pretty much every science sreams evolution.
@@howardpalys6929 can science be wrong or the facts be misinterpreted?
Many Christians have rejected their faith because of science even though they do not have a science background.
I am glad to see scientists themselves are defending the Bible and educating people like me who are vulnerable.
I have a master's degree in physics, member of Sigma Pi Sigma. I think it is extremely important to save people from years or even decades of being agnostic or atheist, as I was
I believe, God help my disbelief.😊
@skeeterburke Thank you Mr. Burke. Go for it!😊
@OrangePumpkin150 Science is so-called . But because of the courage and objections of prominent Scientist who profess the faith likeJames Tour has made it possibly to dispute with pedlers of evolution and question their asumptions.
I followed Dr Ross for more than 30 years,and read many of his books. I learned a lot and my faith is stronger than ever
You faith in the science of men? Or the Word of God? choose carefully.
@@kevinrtres you know science means knowledge, you assume that a translation can only have one meaning. If you did as much research as Dr. Ross you would know more
Praise God, i am so glad to hear that this man's work has kept your faith strong for 30 years, never let that fire be quenched, God bless you.
How in the world is this my first time hearing this man?
Perhaps you've rejected the young earth creation story as clearly told in the bible. Even right here in this video Ross confesses that there were 6 days of creation - then he goes off the rails to bend the texts to fit in with the big bang tale. You make your bed - you have to sleep in it. Choose well.
So by the way re-read Exodus 20:8-11 carefully - again and again - and examine the context in which it appears.
I heard few weeks ago and tought the same thing.. but all happens in Gods time and the time has come for us.
If you want to know about Ross, get the book Refuting Compromise
A biblical and scientific refutation of ‘progressive creationism’ (billions of years) as popularized by astronomer Hugh Ross
by Dr Jonathan Sarfati.
Ross plays a game, and pretends to exude humility and sincerity, but he is proud, puffed up and arrogant. He deludes himself, and is greatly deceived, and deceives far too many who should know better. He obviously thinks he is some kind of gnostic. He writes a book titled "Why the universe is the way it is" as though he has all the answers.
Ross is a Trojan horse to the church. He rejects the creation account, and contaminates scripture with Big Bang secular philosophies that directly contradict scripture. He rejects the global flood and says it was just a local flood, and believes there was death before Adam's sin, which is an attack on God’s goodness and character. Very serious !
He claims there were "pre-adamites". (people who supposedly lived and died before Adam). His faith is in Big Bang, and he has constructed a religious cult that conforms to it. Scriptural meaning is twisted to accommodate it. Don't be so easily deceived, people...Gods word warns of these types in the last days.
I think he has been off the radar with illness. I use to follow him alot in the past, and he does look a lot older now. Wiser too maybe.
What a great revelation!!! Thank you Lord God for this new information that you revealed to us through the speaker. To God be the Glory!!?
Just be careful not to make the age of rocks your god instead of having your feet firmly planted on the Rock of Ages!
Ross puts great trust in the age of rocks.
Hunt down the creation websites to check the counter points to Ross' argument regarding the interpretation of Genesis 1. Don't just take his word - critically examine it in the light of GOD's word!
Dr. Ross is amazing. Love his scientific approach to all Biblical topics. Thank you! All glory to God!
✨💖💪✝️🕊️💖✨🕊️
Truth zingers are like a BOLT of lightning. It is so refreshing to hear one present his point of view without huge sponsor dollar strings.
Where is the TRUTH in this?
Finally, someone is talking about my thoughts 12 years ago... I brought this point of being on the 7th day that covers until now and my teacher didn't take my point. Thank you brother Ross.
Time to seek different teachers. This gent has been speaking on these topics since the 1980s.
@Mr196710 I'm from bundok part of Philippines, never heard about this, just reading my Bible when this thought came to me. It's amazing how The Holy Spirit works.
@@TeacherZia-m2o The 7th day lasting till now is just bollocks - we go in week after week and every day is just another day. This man places more trust in the age of rocks than in the Rock of Ages hence his emphasis on the science of man instead of the plainly understood Word of God as spoken in the bible.
At last, I heard a scientific and theologically sensible presentation of creation with an eschatological perspective. Thank you Hugh.
I was reading Exodus 31, the other day, about how God gave Bezaleel and Aholiab a special anointing in all manner of workmanship, to build the tabernacle and the things within. That came to mind, as I was watching this and I began to think that God has given Hugh Ross a special anointing to understand science and how it aligns with what scripture says.
Dr. Ross , I truly enjoy your explanations as they make sense to my mind and much more context and background information is available . I just found this channel and seek out new videos all the time ! I’m also interested in getting some of your books , very informative as well . Again , thank you !
Don't let this remain book learning only...his answer to the first question SHOULD compel you to give your heart and soul to Christ- like he did. Do not procrastinate to enjoy sin longer. God may reject YOU for your laziness towards His mercy bringing you this man's teachings.
For getting more confused.
Good man Dr Ross and thank you and God bless you and yours.
I came to my faith for about a year, truly believe in God, and have a desire to read the Bible, the story somehow feel so natural for me, and when I finished chapter 2, I got the feeling we're are still in the seventh day of creation. Great to have someone have the same idea 😊😊😊
Its better to stay true to the bible than to your feelings. Listen to Ken Hams take on this from AnswersinGenesis.
I believe we are at the end of the 6000 Years of mankind and we are coming up to the Rapture, the 7 year Tribulation of Christ's Judgement on His created earth and the beginning of His 1000 year reign, starting and finishing the 7,000 years of mankind. The as Revelation say, He, Jesus Christ, Father and Holy spirit will destroy the old and create a perfect new earth. Book of Revelation spells this out quite well, IF one takes the time to study it. Spectacular book. Go into it without thinking it hard to understand, there are many great resources to help. But Revelation is the Lord's great piece of information to everyone on what to expect and be warned of.
Great calmness.
Beautiful information and knowledge depth.
Excellent ♥️
Beautiful
Hallelujah!
I’m going to get reading.
We are so blessed to have you Hugh🙏
This has helped me start to understand the six days of creation, like many Christian’s I struggled with young earth vs old earth.
So why did you reject the biblical timeline?
God bless you Dr. Ross.
I congratulat DR Hugh Ross on his olympic level mental gymnastics.
*it seems you forgot your attachment*
All glory to Jesus Christ
Thank you Sir, the mystery is always unfolding into the purpose of Gods great plan. There is much more man does not understand that can be reasoned . Fascinating! God in fact and he has a great love for all his creation.🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Appreciated the presentation. Commenters: The measure you use will be measured back to you. A law like gravity.
Should be ‘testing science with the bible’
Lovely interpretation. *_Kudos!_* And we should all feel free to interpret until we find *_God's Truth!_* Personally, I currently think Genesis 1.3 is about God ALLOWING the functional reason for Light to exist -- that of *_Awareness!_*
😎♥✝🇺🇸💯
If the days in Genesis are long periods of time how did animals die off and go extinct before sin enters the world? How did plants survive without insects and animals to pollinate the. If their creation is separated by long periods of time?
Our kids grow up with religions. As much as they can learn science and all its extensions, god will survive within their works. And we get to savor them
The word of God is Truth. We should test science with Genesis!
In the scriptures it says that God divided the light from the dark before He spoke the sun into existence. That tells me there was some form of light that was intermingled with darkness. Doing this dividing made way for the creation of the greater light or the sun. It was God making way for the sun--a greater light. John the Baptist came out of the wilderness. The wilderness represented the former light that was given by Moses'writings including the law and by the prophets and kings such as David who were anointed by the Holy Spirit. But the true light got mixed up with man's sinfulness, false gods of the heathen and even God's own chosen people's straying. John shouted, " Make Way for the Lord! "He exhorted men to repent! He wanted them on a higher road with all the stones-- the stumbling stones-- cast away to prepare the way for the Messiah. He washed them in baptism from their former ways. And then the greater Light came... The son of God, the Light of the world that lighted every man. John was called the most righteous man that ever lived. But the Son of man was Righteousness! The Truth had dawned and It would experience an eclipse and then shine on for eternity. This is my prayer: "Lord let me separate the Light from the darkness and fully experience the eclipse of your death that I might pass from darkness to Light and walk in the Light as you are in the Light and have fellowship with You, Your blood cleansing me from all sin." Amen.
On day 4 scripture speaks of God creating plants with seed within itself. But then it says that the earth brought forth plants. My thinking is that God planted the seeds and they remained dormant until the things needed for germination and growth were in place.
Dr. Ross❤️🙌
I always thought that animals grew and shed the hair because of the weather. But I noticed my horse shedding his winter hair while it was still cold weather. It was then that I was told that they start shedding according to the position of the sun and the length of daylight.
No test nessesary the bible reveals truth before science finds it , and science continues to realize the bible is correct all along .
God Bless you Dr.Ross
Interesting when you mention about the 8% oxygen....
May be its related to the 8 people in the flood...that's why I'm here today
Quiet man you may wake up god from resting !!
Wow!
I am the first to comment!🙂
Moral of the story, God never needed 6 days to create the heavens and the earth. He could have done it in 6 seconds, why?, because He speaks things into existence. If time does not exist, eternity can’t be measured. So God in His infinite wisdom did it in six, 24 hour days to quantify it for our benefit.
God did it just the way He said He did. Trust God, not man's great ideas.
@@IronMatt "God did it just the way He said He did." That is exactly correct.
The Earth is 4.5662 +/- 0.0001 billion years old.
God Created physics. Physics is ubiquitous.
Does the Sun revolve around the Earth? - Nope.
Yet, the Church taught that nonsense until the 19th century!
God's Word certainly hasn't changed.
What caused the Church to stop teaching that falsehood?
Is there a word for word translation from Ancient Hebrew to any modern language? - Nope.
All translations are thought for thought at best.
You want to argue about what someone has told you what the Bible states in the English language, with their individual bias, with little to no science experience, ignoring the Hebrew?
Do we need to wait another 19 centuries to finally dispel your folklore theology?
Does the Sun revolve around the Earth?
But, but, God said so.
NO HE DID NOT.
That was man's great idea!
"Trust God, not man's great ideas."
Maybe you should listen to yourself?
Yup! 6 normal, human understandable days - not billions of years as Dr Ross makes out.
That is eisegesis.
@@kevinrtres Opinions are like belly buttons, everybody has one.
1) Young Earth creationism has simply failed every empirical test that mainstream science demands.
2) There are no serious peer reviewed science papers indicating that the Earth is young.
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) Here are 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 dates for “lead” 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.
One of my great loves is science. Particularly physics. I've always struggled with creation in Genesis. Most Christians have gotten it wrong, including my pastors. Hearing Dr. Ross' explanation has given me the understanding I've always wanted.
I appreciate this presentation and Dr. Ross’ attitude. I object to what he said at the end about creeds. Why elevate Catholic creeds to the level of “essential Christian doctrine“? Nevertheless, he made a good point about Christian history regarding the age of the Earth, etc..
I have a problem with people saying that the Earth was under the water when they Bible says Gen 1:6-8 and God called the firmament Heaven
Then let the waters under the firmament gather together and the dry land appear
My understanding is that he compressed the waters under the firmament untill it solidifies to form dry land and the seas
I learned the Gap theory in Bible School in the 80's - It never made sense to me. He totally debunks it! Wow - that was great!
One question, Dr. Ross: why would YHVH even bother with Genesis 1-12? You know God believes His Word is Accurate. Hmm... Fine Tuning is His Truth
It is proof that God created the universe, earth and life. Also "and it was good" tells us of God's joy in making a home for mankind, like an artist.
Why or how can the trees and the plants exist before the sun and moon
If Adam had not sinned, he would have continued to live in a perfect earth. God said it WAS very good. The Earth would not have run down. God put man on the Earth to live forever, which is why we are told in scripture that the Times of Restitution of ALL Things is coming, on the earth. The old world social order gives way to Christ's kingdom.
Aren't we supposed to be testing science with Scripture? If you're using science to.test Scripture you're already admitting that your actual religion and the foundation of your life is science, not the Bible. Christian syncretism is alive and well in the West.
What you are saying has no sense. God gave us intelligence and that results in science. When you use science to prove the truth of the Bible you are doing what God wants us to prove. God doesn't need to avoid challenge... Because He & hos word IS TRUE... He challenges us in many passages to prove his word... He's not afraid of putting his word to proof...
Blessings from Caracas, Venezuela... God bless Dr Hugh Ross... God & His word IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE... GLORY TO OUR ONLY GOD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!
God does not want us to be ignorant of the marvels he has created. Pointing out that we are finally capable of understanding the observational proof of creation, through His Word written well before anyone had any clue about the science we know today, is not replacing the Bible with science. In fact it’s a maturing of faith and equipping to go out and disciple to people.
To Our family ucu. If God created all things including science, does it really matter. In other words scripture supports science therefore in reverse science supports scripture.
Keep in mind Genesis wasn't necessarily a scientific account but rather a story that the audience could understand . However it does convey truth at the same time.
So if you remove God or an intelligent being please explain how everything came from nothing?
God bless, you welcome to believe what ever you like.
What is science but man trying to explain God's creation.
What is the Jeremiah 33 scripture he’s referencing in the Q&A? I can’t find it, maybe he memorized a different translation than what I’m reading from (HCSB)
How does old earth theology explain that death didn't occur until the fall of man - after creation ended?
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? This is YEC teaching not Bible teaching: animals killed due to man's sin.
@@djsarg7451Slander? You claim God killing all land animals (in Noah's flood) is young earth creationist teaching, not the teaching of the Bible?!
Gen. 3 Cursed is the ground because of you.
Gen. 6: 3 "And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, ...
for it repenteth me that I have made them."
And Romans 8: 20-22,
"For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now."
The entire creation was cursed and put into bondage to await God's final redemption. It is pretty simple Bible teaching.
I'm left wondering how you explain millions of years of death before man's sin in your (and Ross') old earth philosophy?
Bible - This is the inerrant Word of God from the creator of all things.
Hugh Ross - Buy my books and they will tell you the truth about the things that God got wrong in his eyewitness testimonies.
Try testing it with faith! And shake the dust off at the reprobate fools (Psalms 14:1 & 53:1)
"reprobate fools"?
Shame on you!
I scanned the QR code and there is no "free book". What is going on???
Hugh Ross might be a wrong teacher as others said it but I believe that he is a believer of the Lord Jesus Christ. He believes in his birth through virgin Mary, his life, death, and resurrection and he hopes for Christ's second coming. So don't be surprised if you find him in heaven.
Churches everywhere have Christmas nativity set featuring the first two people to question the virgin birth.
Think of it! How scandalous: Mary and Joseph were the first two to question the virgin birth. They must have had the Hebrew Biology 101! Wow! Even backwards, Wow!
Testing Science with Genesis:
Genesis 1, [1] In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
God didn't create in time. He created with time.
Proverbs 1, [7] The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: But fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Colossians 2, [2] that their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; [3] in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. [4] And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
He doesn’t believe the Genesis six days of creation .
Nailed it! He makes careful low bend to acknowledge it - then proceeds to thrash the word of God to fit the big bang in there.
Ya. He missed out d Hebrew word "Yom" as a literal day of 24 hours.
He does absolutely believe in the six Biblical days of creation and the current continuing 7th day or yom. He doesn't believe in forcing the wonders of creation into a very erroneous and unnecessary interpretaion of 144 hours. These are long days.
@@rickpolson6651He’s not teaching what the Bible says .
“ And the evening and the morning was the first day “ etc etc etc .
Yes he does. 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 hour.
Jeremiah 3
Restoration of Israel.
11 Then the Lord said to me: Faithless Israel has shown herself less guilty than false Judah. 12 Go, and proclaim these words towards the north, and say:
Return, faithless ISRAEL - Oracle of the Lord.
I will not look on you in anger,
for I am merciful, Oracle of the Lord.
I will not be angry for ever.
13 Only acknowledge your guilt,
that you have rebelled against the Lord your God,
and scattered your favours among strangers under every green tree,
and have not obeyed my voice, says the Lord.
14 Return, O faithless children,
for I am your master;
I will take you, one from a city and two from a family,
and I will bring you to Zion.
15 I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding. 16 And when you have multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, says the Lord, they shall no longer say, "The ark of the covenant of the Lord." It shall not come to mind, or be remembered, or missed; nor shall another one be made. 17 At that time Jerusalem shall be called the throne of the Lord, and all nations shall gather to it, to the presence of the Lord in Jerusalem, and they shall no longer stubbornly follow their own evil will. 18 In those days the house of Judah shall join the house of Israel, and together they shall come from the land of the north to the land that I gave your ancestors for a heritage.
19 I thought
how I would set you among my children,
and give you a pleasant land,
the most beautiful heritage of all the nations.
And I thought you would call me, My Father,
and would not turn from following me.
20 Instead, as a faithless wife leaves her husband,
so you have been faithless to me, O house of Israel - Oracle of the Lord.
21 A voice on the bare heights is heard,
the plaintive weeping of Israel’s children,
because they have perverted their way,
they have forgotten the Lord their God:
22 Return, O faithless children,
I will heal your faithlessness.
‘Here we come to you;
for you are the Lord our God.
23 Truly the hills are a delusion,
the orgies on the mountains.
Truly in the Lord our God
is the salvation of Israel.
24 "But from our youth the shameful thing has devoured all for which our ancestors had laboured, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters. 25 Let us lie down in our shame, and let our dishonour cover us; for we have sinned against the Lord our God, we and our ancestors, from our youth even to this day; and we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God."

Now, I know why I never catch any fish. They are running from my sinful nature. Cuz I knew I'm an amazing fisherman. That really does explain it.
Before you keyboard warriors get all upset I was just making a joke not criticizing Hugh.
Lol
@@julesverne2509I caught that and you're funny.😂
I am a Christian and believe in creation, but I'm still struggling with the day 4 plants, day 5 sun/moon and stars. If it's about fog, how could plants that depend on photo tropic behaviors grow and orient themselves, let alone get enough sunlight to grow?
Scripture says that the earth brought forth plants. My thinking is that God created the seeds. These seeds remained dormant until the things needed for germination and growth were in place.
Why would it take God a long time to create the universe? He spoke it into existence. How long could that take? Why did he have to rest? Better yet, what was he doing for the eternity before creating the universe? Sitting around? Playing solitaire? When did God create the angels? Did he create them before creating the universe, or after? Why did he create Satan? What was the point of doing that?
Help. What did I miss? Plants were on earth millions of years before the sun was in the sky? I must have missed how they thrived without sunlight. What did I miss?
Sunlight can penetrate atmospheric fog. It's just not translucent. Foliage grows on the floor of the Amazon, and some of the sea bottom, where there is way less sunlight.
Aww , and Luke 10:18.. and of course you know from a research standpoint even though I delivered you the scriptures still look at the whole text so that you can get the whole for understanding of what it is saying
What is the book that he was handing out that he said answered the flat earth/round earth debate (since he chose not to answer the question publicly).
Dr. Ross PhD has addressed the flat Earth nonsense publicly, multiple times.
39:40 - Rescuing inerrancy.
You could not figure that out on your own?
Christians are not hard to find in Canada!! Oh my hahaha there are churches on every other street corner and many many Christians, including myself!! :) However, probably in comparison with the US, this would be somewhat true! :)
He was speaking of when he grew up. I suspect he is much older than you.
Church attendance is very low in Canada. We also have governments who are hostile to Christianity.
Church attendance does not equate Christianity. Many are merely bench warmers, Laodicean whom God will spew from His mouth
Go examine how many of those "Christian" churches have succumbed to the rainbow madness.
Does the crater pattern on the moon explain the timing of the flood when the depths open up?
"Water above and water below" - means we are in the watery abys.
The universe is drop of water in the boundless light.
You are the reflection of the light locked in the drop.
Our sympatric friend is wrong, on day 2 there was no sun yet.
You can't serve 2 masters, it's God, or the world. No compromise
He forgets that the lights were after the earth and recent discoveries are putting into question about the big bang
This is only if the correct frame of reference is not set. Gen1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. It was dark over the water on Earth. No light can get to earth. Job 38 also writes about creation and helps us understand the darkness and water cycle. The Bible tells why the earth was dark and why God said “let there be light”: Job 38:9 When I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it in thick darkness. So the two tell use the clouds went from dark to lighter. The clear sky does not come till " moon to mark the seasons" now with have blue sky
The title of this presentation says it all in a nutshell about Old Earth Creationism--- ‘science’-- in your minds-- is the ultimate arbiter of Truth. Wherever ‘science appears to be at odds with the bible, it is the bible which must give way.
The gymnastics and gyrations you go through in your efforts
to ‘save’ the bible from itself are the result.
Absolutely!
You didn't listen to his answers to the first two questions did you. For Shame! Blind and deaf...

@@djsarg7451 wrong--the sabbath rest spoken of in Hebrews refers to salvation--not an era. We can only be saved by giving up our works--(since no sacrificial system remains now that Christ is the ‘once for all’ lamb)--- there was a literal seventh day and it is a picture of God’s rest--which we can only enter by faith--not works
@@johnbullard902
1) :sabbath rest spoken of in Hebrews refers to salvation" Yes, those saved, are told to enter into the 7 th day. 7th day started after Eve was created, and continues today. Gen 1 day is

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 wo rd 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".
Gen. 2:4 “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.
Have you entered into the 7th as Hebrews 4:9-10 asks you to?
Creationism does not equal young Earth. There are many Old Earth creationists.
Bible. is. Holy. Bible is. Sceince.. bible is. History.. d. Best. Book. Of. All time.
wonderful talk, thank you. While “day” may mean a period,Genesis does not just say “day” but “evening came and morning came the first ( second, third etc) day”. You reveal the order is correct so can it not be possible that God created on each 24 hour day in succession , the earth and universe, “where it would have been if X number of millions of years had passed” each time? I see miracles of God today witnessing to God’s ability to do this - a leg growing in one second four inches longer at the prayer of another - not slowly as the witness told me, but in one instant it was short and one second later it was four inches longer. Prophets in thee Bible were transported in an instant WITHOUT PASSING THROUGH THE SPACE INBETWEEN, (often called bi-location) - Habakuk with the stew to Daniel: Philip from the road with the Ethiopian chariot and next instant in Susa: Elijah, taken from one place to another and who had to be sought by his prophetic brothers. When Padre Pio was taken in an instant to North Africa, saved a soldier’s life and was returned in a second back to Italy he was asked how he did this feat ( one of many in his life). He said, “I am where God Wills me to be, here in the monastery one moment and the next He will me elsewhere.” This explains the mystery of Jesus’ virginal birth, God willed Jesus to be in His mother’s womb until full gestation and the next instant to be in the manger - hence not passing the space inbetween and so the seal of virginity was not broken.
Mary was pregnant for 9 months. That destroys your whole argument.
Why do you seem to think that a 13.8 billion year old Created universe is any less miraculous than one Created in 144 hours?
To God, infinity is less than a wink.
God Created "time." - Right?

Richard Dawkins enjoys hymns n Christmas carols. He just can't accept the virgin birth. I've been praying for him n others for a few yrs.
What about the other saviour God stories that are identical to the Jesus Christ story? there were 15-20 of them
Mr Ross,l you are missing the main point of Genesis 1:2 and it is a Hebrew phrase called tohu va boho.. I am so sure that with the work and what you have already done with your knowledge of scripture that if you look for these points right here you will one understand that your view of how you saw things was wrong and to will change and spread a different message of how God, or you will start explaining the characters of God, and how it is scientifically ifits in the Bible
His claim regarding animals running away: living and working remote Alaska YES. When you quit moving about the animals come to investigate you. Just sayin
Deut 32 4..Psalms 111:2-3, Isiah 45:18, Jeremiah 4:23.. even though there is a lot more these scriptures show that God did not create a Genesis 1:2 Earth and that Genesis 1:2 Earth was something that happened and not that the way that God had created it
Test science with genesis
Mr Ross in Genesis 1:2 why would an all-knowing all order systemic God create a earth that was Null and voided.. I would say that one of the very first things you are missing in Genesis 1:2 is the characteristics of God and that he would not have created a world that look like this.. and I will send you the scriptures in the Bible that says that he did not create earth like this
Pls let's have the scriptures so we can look it up.... If your claims are true.
How does Hugh Ross explain the fact that death was in the world before sin? This would be the case if fossil records were dated to the time before Adam and Eve. This contradicts Rom. 6:23. No Sin, No Death!
I guess, when people try to marry evolution and creation, then the whole biblical teaching flies up in their faces.
I applaud your desire to defend the bible record and wholeheartedly agree,that it is a sure,truthful reference on whatever subjects it touches on.
Personally, i have found i have to take great care not to do two things.
1.To not take well corroborated scientific truths,as automatically being adversarial to the bible.
What is called science,is in truth,the attempt to uncover truth,about reality.It is a gradual progressive process,but it is,whether its practioners believe in god or not,a methodical search for uncovering truths regarding how god builds a universe, it is not my enemy.
People within it may try to distort or mess with things within that body of knowledge,but,the truths are there,and it is up to people who love truth,whether they're god fearing or not,to call out when it is straying from that grand goal of pursuit of truth.
Fundamentally though, clear scientific truths will only add to the bible account, no matter what people may try to do.
We have no reason to fear science itself.
2.I must,
use the bible correctly.
This takes much effort,but i find it helps by being careful not to take things out of context,its so easy to focus on a verse in order to prove my own thought or point of view,,and to ignore the previous verses,or chapter, which set that verse in the proper context.
Another thing ive learned,is to also collect all the rest of points the bible may make about that same subject matter,in the other bible books,this gives a clearer view of gods flawless thinking on the given subject.
I learnt this way of careful study,from great god fearing men,who more than a century ago used these methods to get clear views of bible truths.
It is easy for us to misunderstand what god is saying,and we dont want to stumble those who already doubt him.
3.Be patient,things aren't always quickly apparent.
In Rom chapters 5,6, god is using Paul to address the matter of where human sin and death originated from,he was not making a statement regarding death in reference to all living things.In fact the whole theme of the bible,is written regarding this grand purpose that god has for mankind,and how it will be achieved.
In chapter 5 he specifically address the origin of human death,as being the fatal decision Adam made in Eden,and the consequences this has for all of us.
God reveals his response to this dire situation ie,supplying a ransom that will pay the price of bondage, and release mankind from this situation they are stuck in.Sin brings death,just as night follows day.
In some of gods final words to mankind in Rev:21:4 god paints a picture of all things he will remedy,or reverse for mankind,outcry,mourning,pain and death, are the things he promises to reverse for mankind.
When he sent his chief representative,Jesus,you will recall he resurrected and cured people,not pets or cattle,as a way to demonstrate to those people,and to us,the things which he would do at a future time globally.He further stated there would be a grand ressurection of humans in John:5:28,29.
So,we can see the picture that is forming right?
Nowhere does the bible suggest that animals did not expire before Adam,or that they only started dying, after the fall.
The ransom was provided to remove humans from endlessly being born into a dying race, it is a provision only for those made in gods image.
I personally thought that the gentleman who gave this talk,is a man who sincerely loves the book of creation,and the bible,and he gave a very reasonable,compelling talk.
My hope,is that as people who are in awe of this amazing creator,as i believe you are,that together we can learn and grow from each other.
Imogene is ‘exhibit B’ (I was going to say exhibit A, but I guess Hugh holds that position) of the mental gymnastics people will go through to explain away the clear teaching of scripture.
Animal death, unlike human death, did not result from sin. Romans 5:12 says that sin came into the world through one man and spread to the human race, not to the animal kingdom. When God declared that his creation was good at the end of the sixth day, he must have had in mind the complex relationships within ecosystems, where predators, prey, scavengers, and pollinators all play specific roles. The life cycles of animals, including birth and death, contribute to the overall functioning and health of the earth’s ecosystems. Psalm 104:21 describes how “young lions roar for their prey, seeking their food from God.” Lions are carnivorous predators, which means they primarily eat meat from prey. That is how God designed them. 2 Peter 2:12 says that animals are “creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed.” Humans, on the other hand, are different. We were made in God’s image. We have the potential for eternal life through faith in Christ. Being creatures of instinct, animals are unable to put faith in Christ and receive eternal life.
@@jollyrancher521 I see it differently, my friend. Look, Romans 20-22 make it clear that the Fall is not just limited to humanity, but has an impact on all of creation. Creation suffers from corruption and death, and this is directly linked to the Fall. Greetings from Switzerland and blessings, my friend.
@@BolzGue Thanks for your reply. I would just point out that although the Greek term "creation" in Romans 8:22 can refer to the creation in general, including animals, "creation" in this context refers exclusively to the human creation. Romans 8:19 says that "the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God" and verse 21 says that "the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God." (ESV) Only humans are waiting for that time when they will be set free from sin and become children of God. Colossians 1:23 also uses the term “creation” in reference to humans. It says that the gospel “has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven.”
on the seventh day....a long period, of time, so since then no work has been done....are you enjoying your sabbath....
God "rested" from His Creation. Right?
How many thousands of years ago was that?
We are still in the 7th day.
Why do you need to twist and distort the text?
I greatly admire and respect this man. However, there is little need to check scripture with science, instead we need to be checking science against scripture.
Many manifestations seems very convincing yet none of them actually exist.seems very convincing yet only in the dreamstate still.
Sun moon luminaries not yet created on day one so the light on day one was the Creator himself
The Hebrew word for Create is "bara."
It is only used 3 times in Genesis 1
a) In the beginning - "the heavens and the Earth" :all physical reality. That would include the star(s), moon, etc.
b) Day 5 - Nephesh animals.
c) Day 6 - Man (Adam/Eve)
Why do you make God a grow lamp to be switched on and off?
You cannot have "evening" or "morning" without a star.
The Earth rotates.
The sun does not rise nor set.
Verse 16 "clearly" does not state Creation, nor does it use the word "bara."
You are reading into the text and completely distorting its meaning to satisfy your personal belief.
That is eisegesis.
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.
A parenthetical statement is one that explains or qualifies something.
They did not have past tenses in Ancient Hebrew.
They only had perfect and imperfect tenses.
@MutsPub Sun moon luminaries not yet created on day one so the light on day one was the Creator himself Gen1:14-19 The sun was created on the fourth day. Rev 22:5....states there is no need of the sun in the new holy city, for the Lord God will shine upon them,...I am thinking this is the same as on day one of creation. It clearly says the luminaries were created on the fourth day, not the first day, or the second, or the third. There are all kinds of places we could disagree and since you are arguing grammar of which I know none; I will not comment further
@@lyndagatlor5736 You cannot equate Rev 22 (FUTURE) which is the "NEW" Creation to the past.
Quote from you, "since you are arguing grammar of which I know none; I will not comment further"
Got it.
Biblical Hebrew has no word for universe, in the Bible “heaven and the earth” is always used to talk about the complete universe.
I hate Q&A. It's like talking to a wall. I want to hear an answer invested through a peronality
What about the other christianties very different from the Pauline Christianity stuff
Dr Ross is awesome and I agree with him on a lot of points. But when it comes to the account of the flood I believe he is unequivocally incorrect.
Genesis 6:7 says "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air.."
Genesis 6:13 "And God said unto Noah, The end of ALL FLESH is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth."
Genesis 7:21-23 " And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man. All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark".
The Bible is reeeeaally going out of it's way to make sure there is no misunderstanding: IT'S THE WHOLE WORLD.
So anything else in the Bible that Dr Ross is pulling from to claim otherwise is, with all due respect to him, being stretched very thinly to fit the narrative he wants.
this one seems to have speculative ideas....after a while one has to say, enough....next...

He totally ignored the firmament..
Biblical Hebrew has no word for universe, in the Bible “heaven and the earth” is always used to talk about the complete universe. “Firmament” is used in the King James Version a old (1,500) translation? Modern translations do not use this: Genesis 1:7 “And God made the expanse and separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were above the expanse.” This is talking about what we now call the water cycle. The use of the world “firmament” in Genesis 1:8 is a carryover from the Latin firmamentum of the Vulgate. Genesis was written in Hebrew, the original Hebrew word is raqiya. This should be translated “expanse, sky, space, horizon”. Some translated this a vault. Genesis was written in Hebrew, which as limited vocabulary.
@@djsarg7451 the Bible describes a flat Earth, so there is no "universe". They didn't need a word for it.
01 Genesis = Creation, Evolution and Entropy. 010
11:59 "Psalm 95 says that God's Seventh day continues????? Are you just hoping that no one looks this up?
I think he is talking about Psalm 95 in conjunction with Hebrews 4.
@@elmarcentral I think you're right. Hebrews 4 clearly references Psalm 95 so you need to read the 2 together to get the full meaning
yeah and on that note about the world being flooded but it wasn't the WHOLE world as we know it. you got to consider how many people there even were on the planet at that time. if you give a generous guesstimation (coz the book doesn't name everyone or number how many kids they all had) there would only have been somewhere between 3-4000 people. that's not even enough to fill the smallest sports stadium, so a world flood in perspective of that isn't really that big, after all when we hear the words world wide flood today we imagine a flood that literally engulfs the whole planet coz we now have a population that covers the planet but not back then there weren't enough people for God to need to do that.
Your numbers are laughable! If you actually gave it some thought by looking at the genealogies you would see how ridiculous your numbers are. God went to great effort in Genesis to describe a worldwide flood that covered the whole earth. All land animals and all humans save those on the ark were killed. If you cannot understand this from the text in Genesis then that is your reading comprehension problem. Ross spews numbers as truth that are purely speculative verging on indefensible. He is a liar, and a dishonest deceiver.
He doesnt believe in a global flood or 7 day creation so how is he proving its true?
By changing what it plainly says.
The creation day was 24 hours, you are wrong
"When you read church history... "
"To be deep in history is to cease to be protestant." 19th century Anglican convert John Cardinal Newman.
So how much time did God spend creating the trillions upon trillions of planets in the universe ? Personally I have no problem with the 24 hour day
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 hour.
As Shaun Carrol put it. “ Assuming the complexity of things like the Plank constant and how gravity works. He could have done whatever he wanted” Takes the mystery out of things.
He can’t prove a God exists just as Hitchens said over and over he can’t prove God does not exist.

You don't use man's science to prove the existence of God.

Dr Hugh Ross seduces through his 'Progressive Creationism', but is responded to in a biblical and scientific fashion in Dr Jonathan Sarfati's book :

No, ALL of creationism is utterly refuted by science. There is NO evidence for any creationism.
@@Mario_Sky_521 Why would I need to match my "grey matter" with the Fraud Hugh Ross? Creationism is a fairy tale. There is no evidence for any god, no evidence for magical creation.
