Let me see here, Jesus says it is, you say it isn't. Ponder,. ponder, ponder, who to believe? He who created the universes in six consecutive 24 hour days and went up on a cross for me? Or you.
Sorry AnAmericanMother, but, I'm going with Jesus. You do the reading, I'll do the praising.
Who makes it possible for you to know Jesus's word? How do you know about the Crucifixion and Resurrection? It isn't through Tacitus or Josephus, though they mention Jesus in passing. It's through Scripture -- which was collected, reviewed, and approved by the Church, out of the hundreds of quasi-Christian "scriptures" circulating in the Mediterranean world in the century after the death of Christ.
You can't reject the Church and not reject her work on behalf of her Head. Which is the only way you know Him.
Hey ... where's the entrance ramp to this highway to heaven? Is it in Scripture, because I have not found it.
Where do you get that a day has 24 hours? That’s only on earth, and there was no earth, in the beginning, so sun or any other stars, so HOW DO YOU KNOW????
Why not do both?
