Surprisingly, the body of Christ is quite divided on the subject of creation. Below is a common list of their viewpoints. All these views have one thing in common: they try to accommodate what the secularists believe about origins while trying to explain God’s role in it. What do you believe about the origin of the earth and mankind?
* There’s a gap of millions of years between the first verses of Genesis.
* We don’t know what the 7 days of Genesis mean.
* The flood was a local event. Fossils are probably millions of years old.
* God used evolution to evolve Adam and Eve.
* The Framework idea fits millions of years into Genesis.
* Genesis 1 is a poem.
* Adam and Eve don’t have to be literal people.
* God made races of people to start with.
“Evolution is unproven and unprovable. We believe it, however, because the only alternative is an act of creation by a God, and that is unthinkable.” ~Author Unknown
