Creation Day 2: 6 Days of Creation or 13.8 Billion Years?
Unfortunately, most people today view the creation account as a mythological story originating from some ancient human author with extremely limited scientific knowledge. They have no concept that the Genesis 1 account originates from a non-human, superior intelligent source –because it speaks of things that supposedly happened before any human or even our universe existed. If, on the other hand, you assume that the creation account is the result of our Creator’s attempt to explain the origin of the universe to an ancient human people with a limited vocabulary, then it is not unreasonable to believe that advanced scientific concepts - such as applying Einstein’s Relativity to stretching of space and time - is possibly the best-fit for the ancient Hebrew word raqia םִ יַ מ . If you take this approach to the creation account – you will find that Genesis 1 is not a mythological story but rather it is entirely consistent with how modern physics predicts that the universe was formed on such a grand scale in both 6 / twenty-four-hour-days and 13.8 billion years.
