Question 1: Which Creation theory uses 2 Peter 3:8?
|
LONG DAY THEORY - 2 Peter 3:8 says "one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day" - they say that each day in the Creation week is actually a long pieord of time, maybe thousands of years.
|
|
Question 2: Which Creation theory has two separate instances of creative activity of God?
|
GAP THEORY - this says that God created a complete "first creation" in Genesis 1:1. This creation may have lasted many--even billions--of years. Then during the fall of Satan, the "first creation" was destroyed and the "earth became without form and void". Gap theorists believe Genesis 1:2-27 actually described God's re-creation of the earth.
|
|
Question 3: Which Creation theory claims that God created things in stages over an extended period of time.
|
PROGRESSIVE CREATIONISM - they believe that the earth is billions of years old and that at certain widely-spaced times God created new batches of creatures.
|
|
Question 4: How old is the earth, according to most young-earth Creationists?
|
6,000 years - they determine this by adding geneologies together.
|
|
Question 5: To become a fossil, must a dead organism be buried slowly or rapidly. Why?
|
RAPIDLY - To form sedimentary fossils, sediment containing dead organisms must be buried quickly. If the dead organism is not buried quickly, it will decompose or be scavenged rather than form a fossil.
