Closed Does Science Agree With the Bible?

[Gentleman007]

The Bible’s answer
Yes, for although the Bible is not a science textbook, it is accurate when it mentions matters of science. Consider some examples showing that science and the Bible agree and that the Bible contains scientific facts that differed greatly from the beliefs of many people living at the time it was written.

• The universe had a beginning. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.) In contrast, many ancient myths describe the universe, not as being created, but as being organized from existing chaos. The Babylonians believed that the gods that gave birth to the universe came from two oceans. Other legends say that the universe came from a giant egg.
• The universe is governed day-to-day by rational natural laws, not by the whims of deities. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

Myths from around the world teach that humans are helpless before the unpredictable and sometimes merciless acts of the gods.
• The earth is suspended in empty space. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.) Many ancient peoples believed that the world was a flat disk supported by a giant or an animal, such as a buffalo or a turtle.
• Rivers and springs are fed by water that has evaporated from the oceans and other sources and then has fallen back to earth as rain, snow, or hail.

Are there scientific errors in the Bible?
A reasonable examination of the Bible shows the answer to be no. Here are some common misconceptions about the scientific accuracy of the Bible:
Myth: The Bible says that the universe was created in six 24-hour days.
Fact: According to the Bible, God created the universe in the indefinite past. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.) Also, the days of creation described in You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. were epochs whose length is not specified. In fact, the entire period during which earth and heaven were made is also called a “day.”—You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now..
Myth: The Bible says that vegetation was created before the sun existed to support photosynthesis.—You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now..
Fact: The Bible shows that the sun, one of the stars that make up “the heavens,” was created before vegetation. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.) Diffused light from the sun reached the earth’s surface during the first “day,” or epoch, of creation. As the atmosphere cleared, by the third “day” of creation, the light was strong enough to support photosynthesis. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

Only later did the sun become distinctly visible from the surface of the earth.—You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now..

Fact: You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

Even today, a person can use the words “sunrise” and “sunset,” yet he knows that the earth revolves around the sun.
Myth: The Bible says that the earth is flat.
Fact: The Bible uses the phrase “the ends of the earth” to mean “the most distant part of the earth”; this does not imply that the earth is flat or that it has an edge. (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

It is also possible that the circumference and diameter represented inner and outer measurements of the basin respectively.

Myth: The Bible says that the universe was created in six 24-hour days.

This is NOT A MYTH. The Bible really teaches that the universe was created in six 24-hour days. This is recorded in Exodus 20:11
"For IN SIX DAYS the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. "
The teaching that it was not created in six 24-hour days, is a theistic evolution view which is condemned and declared heresy by the forefathers.

Questions From Readers

● The Fourth Commandment, recorded at Exodus 20:11, states: “For in six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, the sea and everything that is in them and he proceeded to rest on the seventh day.” Does not the “six days” include Genesis 1:1, since the “six days” includes the time “Jehovah made the heavens and the earth”?—W. B., U.S.A.

No, we cannot so argue. The “day” of Genesis 2:4 as well as the “six days” of Exodus 20:11, comprising the whole creative period from when Jehovah God created light on the earth, does not include the period of time previous in which the earth was already existing and during which it was formless and waste, abiding in the darkness that covered the surface of its surging waters.

We may not forget that during this creative week God did create heavens. Those heavens are the ones described in the account of the second day in Genesis 1:6-8. It is in these heavens that Ge 1 verse 20 says the flying creatures wing their way. It was in these heavens that the sun, moon and stars outside became visible on the fourth day. The earth was made or created within this creative period also in that it was made to appear above the surging waters on the third day. (Gen. 1:9, 10) These, therefore, are “the heavens and the earth” that are referred to at both Genesis 2:4 and Exodus 20:11.

How Long Were the Creative Days?

What about the length of the creative days? Were they literally 24 hours long? Some claim that because Moses—the writer of Genesis—later referred to the day that followed the six creative days as a model for the weekly Sabbath, each of the creative days must be literally 24 hours long. (Exodus 20:11) Does the wording of Genesis support this conclusion?

No, it does not. The fact is that the Hebrew word translated “day” can mean various lengths of time, not just a 24-hour period. For example, when summarizing God’s creative work, Moses refers to all six creative days as one day. (Genesis 2:4) In addition, on the first creative day, “God began calling the light Day, but the darkness he called Night.” (Genesis 1:5) Here, only a portion of a 24-hour period is defined by the term “day.” Certainly, there is no basis in Scripture for arbitrarily stating that each creative day was 24 hours long.

How long, then, were the creative days? The Bible does not say; however, the wording of Genesis chapters 1 and 2 indicates that considerable lengths of time were involved.

So sa lagay ba eh 6 thousand years old lang ang earth kung 24 hours earth day lang nilikha ang mundo? Eh bakit may nahuhukay ang mga tao na mga bato sa ilalim ng lupa na umi edad ng billions of years old?

Hindi ganyan ang paniniwala namin.. ang anim na libo ay ang pag iral ng tao.
