A Day is a Day

When is a day not a day? When someone is trying to discredit the Word of God. Genesis is clear that the universe was created in 6, 24 hour days. Here is another good quote from John MacArthur from his book Battle for the Beginning.

“But the order of creation itself rules out the possibility that the “days” of Genesis 1 were really long ages. For example, plant life was created on day three (Gen. 1:12), including flowering plants and seed production trees. But birds didn’t appear until the 5th day (Gen 1:21), and earth-bound animal creatures—including insects (creeping things Gen. 1:24) – were not created until the 6th day. As every gardener knows, there is a necessary symbiosis between most flowering plants and the insect kingdom that utterly rules out the existence of one apart from the other. All these different, interdependent life-forms could not have evolved together simultaneously; neither could the flowering plants have been created thousands of years before the insects and birds.”
