Originally posted by sonshipHe said, "The age of the earth is an extremely important subject and he can not imagine something more important than this." He did not say it was the most important subject of all, but was speaking in the context of the creation verses evolution debate. But you were not paying attention to that, but instead was looking for something to attack.
I listened to your Video with interest up to about 8 minutes after the point he said something. He said he could not think of anything which was as important as the age of the earth.
I listened up to his presenting the chart of Ussher's chronology. Then I discontinued.
Now, the book of [b]Romans is the basic groundwork of the major doctrines of ...[text shortened]... does the speaker say he can think of NOTHING more important than the age of the earth ?[/b]
In context, he goes on to explain why it is important to creationists - because God's word, authority, and reliability is at stake. And the age of the earth is important to evolutionists because there must be enough time to evolve. Time to the evolutionist is like God to the creationist.
So instead of being one of those that quickly attack him as you and others that he previously mentioned have done, a Christian brother would try to understand him in the context of the subject matter he is presenting.
But after only about 8 minutes of his introduction into his over an hour long presentation, you quickly attack one statement that you don't understand and refuse to listen to anything else he has to say. This is not the attitude I would expect from a Christian brother, but more like the attitude of an atheist, unbeliever, or cult member.
Besides there is nothing that Paul had to say that you mentioned that is worth believing if death and disease were not the result of the sin of man and the Genesis account of creation is not true. Jesus would also be a liar who can't be trusted if wrong about the first marriage of man and woman by God taking place at the beginning of creation instead of billions of years after the beginning, as evolutionists claim.
Why would the Apostle Peter or the Apostle Paul need to make a great deal about how long ago the beginning was when none of the Jews were challenging the Genesis account handed down from Moses? The Apostle Paul did mention that in the last days there would be mockers saying that everything continues as from the beginning. And it is today that the Genesis account of a one week creation and the word of God and the return of Christ is being mocked and attacked.

How to tell the Earth's Age
There are many ways that we know the earth is only a few thousand years old. We can use science as well as the Holy Bible to determine the age of the earth. The following video discusses these facts.

Point me to the scientific papers and I will pay attention. Fail to do so and you are simply lying or do not know what the word 'science' is.

yes, but I am not going to take that much time to respond to a troll. That is why I am called . . .
