Did God Create in Six Days? Pocket Guide

As the findings of secular scientists are increasingly touted as proof of a very old earth, more and more Christians, including theologians and pastors, are questioning Genesis 1. Various ideas have been put forth to explain how the six days of creation in Genesis can be reinterpreted to allow for long ages. This Pocket Guide to Did God Create in Six Days? examines the biblical text, the views of the other biblical authors (and Jesus himself), and the implications of one’s position. Ultimately, we must allow God’s Word to be our authority in every area.
