The Young Earth theory

<< < (2/3) > >>

G. Driggs:
Hi Ron, check this from the Fenton Bible.

Gen. 1:1-5 By Periods God created that which produced the Solar Systems; then that which produced the Earth. But the Earth was unorganized and empty; and darkness covered its convulsed surface; while the breath of God rocked the surface of its waters. God then said, "Let there be light;" and light came. And God gazed upon that beautiful light; and God divided the light from the darkness. And to the light God gave the name of Day, and to the darkness He gave the name of Night. This was the close and dawn of the first age.

A benefit of using more than one translation. This one really seems to support what the Spirit teaches us through Ray.

Anyway just though I would share that, peace.

G.Driggs

Stacey:
Nice find there G.Driggs.

Okay Chris, let's think about this statement you made.

What?  That does not add up  ;)  Leave out the "24-hour" part and you have it right.

John 11:9  Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day?

Here is an excerpt from the came Nashville conference being referenced.

A day is not a 24 hour day, literally.  That is not a literal day.  A literal day is “the light.”

Just wanted to put this in.

mercy, peace and love

Hey Kat,

I was referring to what we [society] today call a 'literal' day; not a biblical day, which would be, as you said, the 12-hour period of light.


Peace.

I'm not familiar with the Fenton Bible, but that is a fascinating translation, George..
THANK YOU for sharing that!  :)

Lupac:
According to wikipedia, the full name is the "Ferrar Fenton Bible" or the "Holy Bible in Modern English". It's interesting that the OT has 22 books in the FFV, and he changes the order of the NT, John, then 1 John, and then the other Gospels. Acts come directly after Luke. It's very interesting. Also, he re-translates the Psalms to get them as close to being in rhyming and verse form, as well as he could. It's a favorite translation of a group called "British Israelism", and, I don't know what to say about that...
