Yes, I know, as a Christian that believes in the Word of the Bible, there seems to be a lot of conflicts between what is Written and the secular world.
I have a Word for you all.
There is no conflict.
Yes, I know the Bible says God created it all in 6 days, and on the 7th He rested. Science says the earth is billions of years old.
God created Man. Science says we evolved.
My brothers and sisters, there is NO conflict.
How can I say that?
We are looking at this from God's point of view, from His Word written for us.
Science is looking over at the backside of the earth and the sun and the moon and the stars, trying to recreate what has already been Written.
And no one realizes that we're looking at exactly the same things.
There is no conflict.
However, our limited understanding, plus our limited ability to see and hear and feel all the world that God has made for us, leads us to many, many conclusions, perhaps even misconceptions.
How long ago was it that we believed the world was flat? That the earth was the center of the universe?
Yes, not that long ago.
How long ago did we realize that there are more colors than our eyes can see? More sounds than our ears can hear? More smells than our noses can distinguish? And if that is true, then isn't it entirely possible that there is so much more out there in the universe? Things that we don't even know to look for?
How long ago did we start to realize that there are more than 3 or 4 dimensions? Yes, not that long ago either.
Besides our inability to see, hear, feel, smell, touch all the possibilities of the world, our humanity makes us suseptible to vain imaginings. We make things way more complicated than they are. And we also try to explain complicated things we don't understand in words that are far too simple to even start to encompass the world God blessed us with.
We keep trying to limit God to fit our understanding.
There is no conflict.
There is only our limited ability to comprehend the vastness of the universe -- and the infinity of God.
Accept, have Faith, realize that there doesn't have to be an argument.
Because there is no conflict.
