I figured that when God created everything from Day 1 to Day 6 and rested on Day seven, that this does not literally mean Monday through Sunday, although some people follow that model. I think each day stood for a certain period of time that can't be determined. How can we account for the historical and physical evidence of dinosaurs and their relation to creation? Fossils have been found dating back to millions of years ago. According to creation, humanity is fairly new compared to that of the era of dinosaurs, so what does all of that mean?
Also, does the flood God brought forth on the Earth really mean the entire Earth was flooded or that specific region?
There are a lot of questions, but none-the-less, the following passages in Gensis following the creation are an amazing account of how God has given us the freedoms of choice and thus humans chose to sin. Luckily through Christ we can seek forgiveness, but in the beginning I can see just how dificult it was to live in a world of sin.
