The seasons of the year

In the middle of the creation account, God created a distinction between a day, a season and a year. This indicates that they are different lengths of time.
If we want the days of creation as a long period of time then what is a season or what is a year?
The whole verse fails to have any meaning if a day is not a literal day.
Does a season become an extra long indefinite period of time? And how long of an indefinite period of time is a year? When we add man's fallible changing ideas called evolution into the Bible then the Bible makes no senses.
Why change the clear meaning of the Bible for an idea called evolution. The changing model depending of the current understanding of the scientific evidence.

Genesis 1:14

 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years,

The wild animals

People love to watch programs on wild animals. The animals of this world is interesting. The Cheetah is a fast animal that many television programs focus on. The television programs will mention Macro Evolution. They deny God and they praise Macro Evolution.

If a person reads the Bible then the Bible will give some answers. If a person reads the fifth day of creation then a person will see something different. The Bible doesn't endorse Macro Evolution. The scientist have a different history on the beginning. The scientist will deny the Bible.

Many Christians will accept Macro Evolution. They will say this. God can use Macro Evolution even if the science books deny the account of God.

God have kinds of animals. A dog is a dog. God made the cat, the cat is a cat. I hear this argument, a person will mention the drawings in a science book. There is a diagram of the progression of Macro Evolution.

The artist who draw the progression of Macro Evolution have imagination but no science. A museum can have different drawing of a exhibit. You can see a exhibit in one city then you will see a different drawing from a different exhibit in London. This is called imagination and not science. 

Many scientists will see a pig tooth and a skull and then they create a Ape Man. This is a interesting story.
When Dr Henry Fairfield Osborn, head of the Department of Palaeontology at New York’s American Museum of Natural History received the fossil tooth in February 1922, he would have thought it a gift from the gods had he believed in any god at all. Marxist in his views and prominent member of the American Civil Liberties Union, he was aware that plans were being made by the union to challenge the Christian-backed legislation that forbade the teaching of evolution in American schools. He saw the tooth as precious evidence for the test case which was eventually held in 1925 at Dayton, Tennessee, and became known as the ‘Scopes Monkey Trial’.
The trial was an arranged affair, but the tooth was not brought in as evidence because there was dissension. The truth leaked out slowly and obscurely in the American Museum Novitiates for January 6, 1923, where nine authorities cited their objections to the claim that the tooth was anywhere near related to the primate. A further search was made at Snake Creek, the site of the original discovery, and by 1927 it was begrudgingly concluded that the tooth was that of a species of Prosthennops, an extinct genus related to the modern peccary or wild pig. These facts were not considered generally newsworthy but did appear in Science (1927, 66:579). The fourteenth edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica (1929, 14:767) coyly admitted that a mistake had been made and that the tooth belonged to a ‘being of another order’. The burden of embarrassment was thus eased for the now retired Henry Fairfield Osborn.
This is not the whole story, however. While the pundits dismissed the affair, believing that the tooth was that of an extinct pig, in 1972 Ralph Wetzel discovered a herd of these very animals alive and well in Paraguay’s Chaco. Wetzel gave a complete description of the discovery in Science (1975, 189:379), where the animals were consigned to the genus Catagonus ameghino. It was admitted, however, that this new species is similar to the extinct species Catagonus wagneri. Once again, the fossil record becomes a mere yesterday.

 

Genesis 1:24-25

 24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

The whales and the birds

Many people will see the whales. The whales are great beings.  I love to watch the sea life. There are many other sea animals in the ocean. We haven't seen every animal in the ocean.
People will watch the birds. The birds fly from north to south so people study the migration of these animals. The birds are designed to do certain things.
In the fifth day of Creation, a person see the creation of the sea animals and the birds. The bird didn't evolve from a whale. The whale didn't evolve from a bird. There is no transitional fossil that prove macro evolution.
There are kinds of birds but they are all birds. The birds are not whales.
The whale can't transfer the whale's DNA to the bird's DNA. It is impossible for the transfer of a whale's DNA to the bird's DNA.

Genesis 1:20-23

 

20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.” 23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.

The water, the land, the vegetation

People like to travel and see many things. People like to see the water. If a person have land and if the land is near the water then the property have a great valve.
The farmers like seed. If they have certain seeds then the farmer can have a crop. If a person like flowers then they have some seeds and then the seeds will grow into flowers. The flowers need water to grow.
The history of creation is interesting. The third day of creation have the ocean, the land and the vegetation.
In the text, a person sees this. God made a tree, God made the tree seed. God made grass, God made the grass seed. God made fruit with the fruit seed.
God is the great Designer. This planet is wonderful created by God. We can understand the beginning with Bible and we shouldn't be deceived the teachings of  Darwin and Stephen Hawking.

Genesis 1:9-13

 

And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.

The first word

The first verse of the Bible proclaims this. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.  It was common in ancient views to consider the universe eternal, yet the Bible taught that it had a beginning.

God created everything in six days. The days in the Bible is a twenty-four hours and not billion of years.

The first chapter of the Bible indicates a progressive creation, followed by formless earth, followed by what happened to give form to the earth. This is more scientifically sophisticated conception than held by the common ancient creation story.

The Bible affirms that God created everything.


Genesis 1:3

 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
