From Scripture
| Literal Genesis |
| Mark 10:6 |
|
Jesus said that at the beginning of creation, God "made them male and female." This places the creation of man at the beginning, not near the end, of the creation process.
|
| Jude 14 |
|
Jude treats the chronology in Genesis 5 as a literal account, with no gaps in it, when he names Enoch as "the seventh [inclusive] from Adam." (The line is Adam, Seth, Enosh, Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared, Enoch, ...)
|
| Genesis 6:14-15 |
|
Why would God's word go to great length and detail about a worldwide flood if there wasn't one? In this passage, God gives Noah the dimensions of a giant boat meant to save Noah and his family from a catastrophic flood. If it was a local flood, as some suggest, why didn't God tell Noah and his family to move?
|
| Recent Creation |
| Exodus 20:11 |
|
In this verse, the Lord himself declares that what he made includes the heavens, the earth, and the sea, and everything in them. This precludes the idea that God merely created life approximately 6,000 years ago but that the earth and the universe are much older.
