EKnight:
I know that Ray spoke in depth at the 2008 Conference about creation in Genesis.  I know that he took us backwards in Genesis one to verse 3 and said that each new "day" began with "And God said" leaving out verses one and two :1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

Thereby showing that the heavens and the earth were BEFORE God began creating everything else.  But does Ray point out also the fact that there could not have even been a first day before verse three because God didn't define day (and He called the light Day) UNTIL verse 3?

Just curious.

Good observation.  Don't think Ray mentioned that. 


But let's go easy on god.  Sometimes we forget to mention things one day and only 48 hours later remember, oh, I forgot to mention something.  So goes with god not mentioning what a day is until the third one came about.  It all happened so fast.

Eileen,

Ray talked about this in audio # 7, The Six Days of Creation.

Here is a quote from the transcript that should help and a link to the transcript by Kat.

--- Quote ---Here is the end of the six yoms or the six creation times. The very last verse of the first chapter of the Bible, and how does it end? It ends with…

Gen 1:31 …And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

What began the sixth day? Verse 24 “And God said…” So between what God said and the evening and the morning, that was the sixth day. There is nothing that happened in the sixth day before verse 24 and nothing that happened after verse 31, it’s got to be between there. The sixth day ended with the evening and the morning, that ends it, that is the sixth day. When did it begin? When “God said” in verse 24. Now we’re getting it.

Gen 1:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

That’s the end of the fifth day or the fifth yom or the fifth period of time. When did that fifth day of making begin? Verse 20, “And God said...” Simple? There is a pattern here, we are talking Scripture.

Gen 1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

This was the end of the forth day. When did it begin? Verse 14, “And God said…”

Gen 1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

When did it begin? Verse 9, “And God said…”

Gen 1:8 …And the evening and the morning were the second day.

Which began when? Verse 6, “And God said…”

Gen 1:5 …And the evening and the morning were the first day.

The ending of the first time. When did it begin? Verse 3, “And God said…” Where is verse 1 and 2? Before the six days. [Someone says, ‘It was there all the time.’] Bingo, it was there all the time.
