Download Seven Days That Divide the World: The Beginning According to Genesis and Science AudioBook Free
What performed the writer of Genesis signify by "the first day"? Is it a literal week or a series of time periods? If I believe that the planet earth is 4.5 billion years of age, am I denying the authority of Scripture? In response to the carrying on controversy in the interpretation of the creation narrative in Genesis, John Lennox proposes a succinct approach to reading and interpreting the first chapters of Genesis without discounting either technology or Scripture. With good examples from history, a short but complete exploration of the major interpretations, and a check out the particular significance of the creation of human beings, Lennox shows that Christians can heed modern technological knowledge while keeping yourself faithful to the biblical narrative. He steps beyond a simple reaction to the controversy, insisting that Genesis instructs us a lot more about the God of Jesus Christ and about God's goal for creation than it does about the age of the earth. With this publication, Lennox offers a careful yet accessible introduction to a scientifically savvy, theologically astute, and Scripturally faithful interpretation of Genesis.
