       Note with me that the Bible states that God created the earth, the sky, and the universe in six, literal, 24-hour days. But this should be no surprise to us, as Christians, that God would be able to accomplish this. God is so much greater than our own, finite minds can understand. Creating everything we see, and most of it we don't see, in 6 days is not a problem for God. Don't get caught up in your own human perspective; look at it from God's perspective. God also presented a model for Christians to live by in creating the world in 6 days, and resting on the 7th day. When God created the world and the things in the world, it is important to note that he spoke it into existence. That is, he simply said something, and it appeared. This shows the powerfulness of God. This also means that things were created with the appearance of age. The universe, the earth, Adam—whatever you consider—was created with this 'appearance' of age. A doctor might look at Adam five minutes after God created him and say, “This is a full grown man. He must have been alive for many years.” But that would in fact be incorrect.
