T.T. 64. Did God
really create the earth in six days?
When I first read in the Bible that
God created the earth in six days and then rested on the seventh, I was shocked.
I thought “Why did He take so long, and why did He then take a rest for a day?
For most of my life I was an
atheist, but once I started believing in God then, by definition, I understood
that He was all powerful and could do absolutely anything instantly, and would
never need to rest.
Why then did God take six days to
create the earth, rather than doing it in a split second? I believe that it was
to set us an example of how we should organise our lives. He has designed us in
such a way that we can work (or study) for six days without any harm coming to
our bodies or minds – provided we make it a habit to take a rest, or break, from
our normal activities one day in every seven. That is the reason we have a seven
day week.
In the past some countries, such as
France and Russia
