Why Six Days? (A Biblical Exegetical Defense of Literal Creation)
Series Genesis/Creationism
Refutes Old-Earth Creationism, Day-Age Theory, Gap Theory (ex: Scofield Study Bible), Theistic Evolution (ex: BioLogos), Progressive Creation (ex: Hugh Ross), and Framework Hypothesis by a positive biblical and exegetical argument for applying sola scriptura to this hotly debated topic and not assigning scientific theories the status of a 67th book of the Bible.
The acronym G-E-N-E-S-I-S summarizes the key arguments to make it easy to remember, arguments that Old-Earth proponents have not and cannot adequately answer:
G-God's statement in The Ten Commandments
E-Evening and morning language indicates normal days
N-Night and day are defined and contrasted in the 1st day
E-Every time numerals are used with yom in Hebrew, it means a normal day
S-Seasons and years (longer literal timeframes) are contrasted with “days” in Genesis 1
I-Interpretation of Scripture as a whole supports a literal Genesis 1
S-Scientific theories have not disproven biblical creation
