RE: Were the seven days of creation in Genesis seven twenty four hour periods? - Where do these notions originate?
Thanks for your reply! I myself am not committed to the theory, but here's an interesting covering of it by Dr. C. Missler:
Used to love this guy. But I had to choose between him and Moses. 8 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. I went for Moses.
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. (Col. 2:16-17 KJV)
I do not disagree with that . Just that Exodus 20 says "seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God". The sabbath was 24 hours so from that it would be logical to conclude that the first 6 days were normal 24 hours.
Oh I get it, pardon my being dense! I'm comfortable with the literal interpretation myself, just thought to mention this other theory. We all see through a glass darkly... :)
Chuck missler is one of my favorites.
Yes, mine too!
Excellent.
