I too have struggled with the timeframe of Genesis and concluded with the literal reading of it. To create a universe in six days is something only an extraordinaire God would be capable of. Because God is the Author of time He could just as easily fast forward events to include lights from the stars to illuminate our skies as we can set the timer on a microwave. This is not deception but common sense and gives those who wish to argue against the plain Word of God something to ponder.

As I posted in my other thread .. The Bible itself points out that DAY does not necessarily mean 24 hours.

If someone has a Bible handy, they may want to look up the second part of the Genesis account where it says .. "In The DAY" that all of this was created.

This is written After the six days of creation account is given.

I'm just guessing that this is to point out that GOD has no clock sitting upon his desk!? 8)
