I was loosing faith in god, by watching atheist videos and having doubts. I prayed to god to talk to me reveal himself I think Hugh Ross is sent from god to make people understand why god does indeed exist.
The church is so fortunate to have Dr.Ross & this ministry. We need to have men and women like him with his intellect and research that are devout Christians and are willing to speak in the arena of Science and faith. By God's Grace his research, intellect, and faith have produced some of the most credible works in the area of the Christian faith & science debates!
@@RTB_official If there were a god, then would there be any demand for scripture interpretations by various podium-jockeys using fantasyland vocabulary? We really should address the social acceptance of large numbers of people speaking a fantasyland vocabulary & openly indulging in the deceit of religious belief as a tool of fascism. These are the wolves in sheep's clothing, we know them by their works: A wicked generation seeking signs when Jesus The Nailed says faith is worthless if you can't move mountains by issuing verbal orders to one. Freud wrote the antidote to Christianity is literacy. The Christians slapped their books on the Old Testament, & the Mormons glued theirs on to them both, thus proving Christians lack quality-control. Look at the verbose podium jockey speaking of faith & prayer as if we all should have a preference for travel with one foot in fantasyland. Nothing fails like prayer in a children's hospital, & there is talk as if God does not have a perfect record of doing nothing, as if we had no reason for the saying: God helps those helping themselves. A house divided cannot stand. We vote because Christians have no quality-controls, & we desire those governing not making suggestions travel is best done with one foot in someone's fantasyland. 'Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.'' It was secular law & order ending the inquisitions & witch-killings. One might expect a deity to make itself known to everyone without work performed in interpretations of old literature by guys like our verbose podium jockey. Theologians acquire grand titles without certification from a deity, & project certainty using fantasyland vocabulary in an academic setting to compensate for lack of reason.

This man has changed my thoughts of the young versus the old earth. My family and I have an interesting discussions about it. But the cool thing is that even if he’s wrong, the end result doesn’t change. He believes in Jesus and I do as well. Whether the earth is young or old doesn’t matter in the end. It just matters if you believe in who created it.
Same here with previous talks I've heard him do. This talk through the days of Genesis was fantastic in walking us through the explanation of each account married with the scientific support of what scientists have observed.
@Janaina Ribeiro Why would you consider it doubting God to interpret the passage in a different way? There is not a clear, unmistakable interpretation of Genesis 1. You may feel there is, and some scholars are militant about their views. But this wouldn't be such a huge debate if it wasn't perfectly clear. Whatever view you hold isn't going to change salvation, Biblical authority and inerrancy, and any number of other doctrines.
@Janaina Ribeiro well then you better hope you are right about the proper interpretation of Genesis 1. Ps. You are wrong about the interpretation of Genesis 1, and thank God that Jesus did NOT say... "For God so loved the world that whosoever PROPERLY INTERPRETS GENESIS 1 SHALL NOT PERISH."
Dr Ross is brilliant as always and provides a strong support to questions in the most humble way displaying more so the Christ like nature Christians should have and not puffed with pride when one reaches a senior level as he does
What a brilliant and unique but most essential subject you have chosen to explain to the people of the Glory of our Lord God Almighty. Thanks Brother Hugh Ross, God bless you.
I enjoyed your lecture and Qand A .I into Amateur Astronomy ,and have an Astronomer fiend ,I have shared evidence of the creation model ,using material ,I read from a book of yours when ,I first come across your books . I am a believer in Jesus Christ ,
WOW! Our brain dna & chemistry is closest to small mammals & birds-not the great apes!!! What an argument ending fact that easily disproves our alleged “evolution” from apes! God Bless Dr. Ross, always testifying invaluable truths!!!!!❤
When a bacteria evolves to withstand vaccines what would you call that? This happens over a few weeks, directly observed in a lab. 2. We see the evolution of animals/plants in the fossil record. 3. There are other hominid species that existed 1st, with similar but not yet evolved features. 4. This guy is extremely smart, but fails to look at the obvious. There are college courses with the word evolution in the title. Remember the "theory" of general relativity which has been accepted as fact- not complete but observed with out doubt. Same as evolution.
I think it really takes strong study in the original languages to truly understand God’s Word. A general knowledge of The Aramaic, Hebrew and Greek languages helps to truly make the Word understandable more fully.
As a traditionally taught Christian, Dr. Hugh Ross blows my mind, and pleasantly so. I mean, "we are in the seventh day" - what a revelation! I used to think I was born too late but now I believe I was born too early to have almost missed this wonderful end times teaching!
Yes it is an incredible time to be alive. A smart time to defend the faith. The depth and clarity of our reasons to believe have never been better. Our arguements, never better defended in the public eye. Our evidential list is longer, and the gospel is going forth in power, intelligence and love, now much more than ever. Remembering that the message of love at the cross is always key. The crescendo is building. Look now! The fields are ripe for harvest!

Am amefical doctor (science oriented)and a CHRISTIAN ,I am so seed by the SCIENTIFIC verasity of the holy BIBLE,I THANK GOD FOR TEACHING US ABOUT HIMSELF
Hey Hugh! I loved the part in your book in the Treasures in the Book of Job where you discussed birds attacking humans.... This scientific observation also made my brain automatically recall the Grimms version of Cinderella ( where the birds attacked the stepsisters and pecked out their eyes/bit toes off etc..) It makes me question whether there is a deliberate attempt to re-write the last few hundred years of human history.... Is it possible that our connection to soulish creatures was lost much more recently than we believe/we are taught to think through social conditioning and through our education systems?
One thing that I learned from Genesis is that the value of hardwork and trust. When God wanted to save Noah and his family, he did not say "let there be an arc". He commanded Noah to build an arc and bring those animals chosen by Him inside that arc. God trusted Noah to build that arc. He trusted his own creation. Noah and his family are not saved instantly. They work hard for it. So if we pray and ask God for something we want, we should not just pray. We also need to act and work hard for it to prove to God that we are worthy of what we are asking. We should be like Noah.
I love this man. I don’t beleive in litteral Genesis. I don’t beleive in a God that is fathering the human race. However, i have the utmost respect for this man’s knowledge and if i am ever to follow the teachings of the bible, it will take a man such as Doctor Ross to direct me on that path.
When I see graphs like the one presented around minute 23 it makes me think of episodes in history like the Cambrian. Where we saw an explosive growth in speciation all of a sudden, unexplained. It seems the more we discover about our planet the more we see it did not happen gradually but in periods of rapid growth followed by long periods slow or no development
I believe that the point of reference, in addition to being from the surface of the Earth, under the clouds, is at a SPECIFIC PLACE on the surface of the earth, that most likely being the top of a mountain in the Middle East where God revealed the creation story to Moses through a vision.
I believe that "Let there be light" refers to the ignition of the Sun. The reason that the Earth was "formless and void" before that is a reference to the aggregate proto planet that was revolving around the Sun in the protoplanetary disk before the Sun's ignition.
Sorry no. The word bara (Create) is only used 3 times in Genesis 1, It is not used here. Let there be light simply means that God changed the atmosphere of the early Earth, from opaque to translucent, allowing the light and radiation of the Sun, that was Created in the beginning, to reach the surface of the Earth. The book of Job tells us why the Earth was covered in darkness. Genesis 1:2 tells us the 4 starting conditions of the Earth. God did not Create (bara) the light here. He simply said let there be light. The Sun was Created with "the Heavens" and "the Earth" in the beginning. In the beginning God Created the Heavens and the Earth. (Bereshit bara Elohim et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz.) a) Bereshit bara Elohim (Hebrew) - “In the beginning God Created” b) et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz (Hebrew): "the heavens and the earth". c) This is a merism, a figure of speech indicating the two stand NOT for "heaven" and "earth" individually, but "everything" (The word "Universe" did not exist in Biblical Hebrew).
@@MutsPub Look again. I did not use the word "Create." I believe your problem, and that of most bible scholars, is that you know much more about the Hebrew language than you do about stellar and planetary evolution. Stars and the planets around them exist for a long time as accretions of gas and dust. It is possible, and I believe probable, that the Earth existed as a protoplanetary blob revolving around a dark Sun. The Earth had not yet solidified and was still accreting matter in its orbit. The Sun existed, but had not yet reached the critical mass at which it "ignites." Ignition is the point at which fussion first begins in a star. So, I believe that the phrase "Let there be light" refers to the IGNITION of the Sun, not the "creation" of the sun.

A summary of the Video: The Harmony of Science and Scripture: Dr. Hugh Ross Discusses Earth's Geophysical History, Predestination, and Global Warming Introduction Dr. Hugh Ross, an astrophysicist and Christian apologist, has spoken on various topics related to the interplay between science and the Bible, from the geophysical history of Earth to predestination, man-made global warming, and extraterrestrial life. By analyzing both biblical and scientific evidence, Dr. Ross highlights the harmony between the two, providing a solid foundation for the Christian faith. Main Body Earth's Geophysical History: Dr. Ross emphasizes the compatibility between the Bible's account of Earth's creation and the scientific understanding of the geophysical history of our planet. As our scientific knowledge increases, the harmony between Scripture and science becomes more evident, which strengthens the faith of believers. Predestination and Free Will: Dr. Ross addresses the long-standing theological debate between predestination and free will by examining the Bible's teachings on both concepts. By considering God's ability to operate within and beyond our spacetime dimensions, it becomes possible for both divine predestination and human free will to coexist without contradiction. Man-Made Global Warming: Dr. Ross argues that God has provided a period of extreme climate stability during a time of overall climate instability, allowing for human development and the fulfillment of the Great Commission. This perspective is supported by his book, "Improbable Planet" (Chapter 15). Extraterrestrial Life: Dr. Ross believes that remains of life may be found on other solar system bodies due to Earth's extensive history of life. He has spoken at NASA about the possibility of finding fossils of Earth's first life on the moon, reinforcing the idea that the Bible's account of creation is supported by scientific evidence. Evolution and Christianity: Dr. Ross discusses the debate between theistic evolutionists and atheists regarding common descent versus special creation. He cites evidence from mitochondrial DNA and Y chromosome DNA, which supports the biblical account of all humanity being descended from one man and one woman. Great Commission and Second Coming: Dr. Ross emphasizes the importance of fulfilling the Great Commission, as Jesus promised to return once it is completed. He states that evangelical Christians today have the necessary resources to fulfill the Great Commission, but lack motivation. Analysis Dr. Hugh Ross's discussions on various topics demonstrate the harmony between science and Scripture, providing a strong foundation for the Christian faith. As scientific knowledge advances, the compatibility between the Bible and our understanding of the natural world becomes increasingly evident. Conclusion Dr. Hugh Ross provides evidence-based answers on various topics related to the interplay between science and the Bible, reinforcing the scientific accuracy and relevance of Scripture in today's world. By examining both biblical and scientific evidence, Christians can strengthen their faith and engage in meaningful dialogue with those who question their beliefs. imreal.life/page.php?i=item&id=1286

Pangea was the dry part in one only continent, that's why ocean species are fossilzed on top of the Everest or other mountain rangers. When water was Very busy.
Dr. Ross, the reason there isn't the qualifier "evening and morning" on day Seven, is because it is not a day of creation, but a SEPERATE (i.e HOLY... i.e. DISTINCT) day... a day of CESSATION from the work of creation. On the SEVENTH actual day, God CEASED His work of creation. NOWHERE in day 4 does it say God created 24 hour days on THAT day. It says He created the heavenly bodies to be markers for TIME PERIODS and SIGNS. Time existed prior to day 4, because it was created on day ONE: "In the beginning..." 👈 the beginning = of TIME, SPACE, and MATERIAL. Every measurement of time existed BEFORE day 4, and all 6 days are qualified IDENTICALLY: "And there was mourning and there was evening." These "yoms" are qualified IDENTICALLY... They ARE the SAME. Either each is a long time period, or are they are literal 24 days... ALL of them.
Test the 'globe curvature' and the 'rotating and orbiting' theories. Go read about Admiral Bird and Operations High Jump, Fishbowl and Dominic. Please explain the FIRMAMENT!!!
Dr Ross, is it possible that time and the speed of light are subject to decay from the curse over creation and were at one time different than they are now, leaving the potential for a young creation which may also explain why we see light from so far away?
I wish this was dumbed down for people like me, struggling so bad with faith, suffering mentally physically spiritually, this popped up to watch, its just so over my head unfortunately, if anyone knows of anything else easier to understand plz link it, i need to get right with Gods on all levels quick 😢
Dr. Hugh Ross makes a lot of sense explaining the genesis creation scriptures. While Kent Hovind although very convincing lacks the scientific credibility and the right interpretation of the "days" of genesis in the Bible !
When he says that the word "YoM" is used for a period of time rather than a singular day in Genesis One, and then uses examples throughout scripture where that word was used as a period of time, he is incorrect. I checked the Hebrew in each instance that he cited on his website article. When the scriptures that he quoted indicated a period of time, the word was never "YoM" as it was in Genesis One. The word used for a period of time in each instance was either "BYoM" which means "in that day" or "YaMiM" which means days.
Seriously? Simple search - From Wikipedia - "Although yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, the word yom has several literal definitions:[1] Period of light (as contrasted with the period of darkness), General term for time Point of time Sunrise to sunset Sunset to next sunset A year (in the plural; I Sam 27:7; Ex 13:10, etc.) Time period of unspecified length. A long, but finite span of time - age - epoch - season."
Hugh Ross's teachings help the evolution crowd with their beliefs ." If it is not right , then We will just add more time to it to make it right". Chuck MIssler believes in the " young earth". H e was a very good student of the Bible and was also explained why all the conditions at the creation of everything was different than they are now. It all "boils down" to one thing, you either believe that there is a God who can do all things, and that lives outside of time, His word is unfailing , He created time and the thing we know as the speed of light, He lives outside of time so He sees the beginning and the end of this thing called "Time". He has the ability to start time, stop time, adjust time, and even move time back, and in some cases even Compress time. There is no way under God's earth ,that a chart that is dividing the pass into millions of year will be any where close to the actual time that is depicted in his presented chart. If you do not believe Genesis , as written by Moses, who was given the past, by God who allowed Moses to "look at His backside", then you will have a hard time believing that someone died for your sins, and trusting Him as your Lord. There is only one way and that is to believe that there is only one God and that He send His Son, so we humans could have hope , that after we die , that there is a eternal after life with a God who wants us to be His children and wants to be our God. This thing called "Time " is speeding to the appointed end, if you ask how I know, you can compare the present to what , that is written in the Bible. Ask Jesus into your heart, and He will be your comfort and hope in a "time" like this.
I financially supported Chuck Missler at Koinonia House for many years. He was a great man. He was an engineer NOT an astrophysics! You clearly know little of science.

We know that birds are descended from dinosaurs. I believe when Genesis says the birds appeared, it is letting us know that the time of the dinosaurs had passed.
That is an assumption. God Created birds. They did not evolve from dinosaurs. That would be macro-evolution. The change in the size of or hardness of Finches beaks is micro-evolution which is true. We can see bacteria micro-evolve in 20 minutes,
God's ideal was that we should be vegan and in the beginning we were - Genesis "See, I give you every seed-bearing plant that is upon all the earth, and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit; they shall be yours for food. the fruit of the tree whose seed shall be food for you At the end we will be vegan. .."Isaiah "They shall not hurt, nor shall they kill in all my holy mountain, for the earth is filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as the covering waters of the sea. " All Christians should aim to avoid violence to animals.
if you read or studied some philosophy , you will understand where the scientific method came from, just ask Descartes , that's why we call philosophy mother of all sciences .

Not at all. The only animals on the Ark were those listed that were needed for man / Noah to start again in that region. Man only lived in a region. Not global. God forced man to spread out through the globe after the Tower of Babel (Genesis11:8-9) not before. The only animals destroyed by the flood were those that had contact with man. The flood was universal but not global. All of mankind was destroyed except Noah and his family of eight people total. 2 Peter 2:5 states the world of the ungodly was destroyed. That does not mean the globe. World does not have to mean Globe. Did all the Kings of the "world / Earth' go to see Solomon as was stated in 1 Kings 4:34? - No. Did all the people of the "world / countries / Earth" go to Egypt during the famine in Genesis 41:57? - No. A “Global” flood can’t happen. Day 3 of Creation Genesis 1:9. God separated the land masses from the seas. God's word is consistent. Psalms 104:9. “SEA” boundaries were established by God and will NEVER cover the Earth again. FIVE TRANSLATIONS: 1) KJV - You have set a boundary that they (the seas) may not pass over, That they (the seas) may not return to cover the earth. 2) NASB - You set a boundary so that they (the seas) will not pass over, So that they (the seas) will not return to cover the earth. 3) ESV - You set a boundary that they (the seas) may not pass, so that they (the seas) might not again cover the earth. 4) NIV - You set a boundary they (the seas) cannot cross; never again will they (the seas) cover the earth. 5) NLT - Then you set a firm boundary for the seas, so they (the seas) would never again cover the earth. *(the seas) added for emphasis. No global flood.

I think this is a great lecture. I think Dr. Ross does a good job of doing a logical walk through and fir the most part , he sites his source for his statements. I think where he falls short is where gets a little more speculative. Such as speculating that good created other mammals for things like fur and to use as test subjects. Both of these speculations make the assumption that God knew ahead of time that mankind would sin. I don't believe there is a scriptural basis for that assumption. I would say the evidence is much stronger in the other direction, that God did not want them to sin. Also the use of furs for clothing may not of been as neccessary pre-flood. Due to the veil of water surrounding the earth. It's quite likely that this effected the climate quite a bit. Aside from those speculations I think Dr. Ross did a fantastic job laying out the facts.
Ephesians 1:4-5 English Standard Version (ESV) 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 he predestined us[a] for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,
God did know man would sin. And He gave man Dominion over all the animals and the earth. Everything was created for man's benefit. But just like Satan man wasn't thankful or satisfied and wants to be God and still thinks they are.
WHAT? one book (actually there were many competing bibles at the time- written by men) is comparable to thousands, even millions of scientific studies/ literature ! ?? no contest.
@@MyChihuahua It's only truth when there's evidence. And there hasn't been much proof for anything supernatural since the beginning of recorded history.
I was interested until his scripture references didn’t sound right. I double checked some with a Bible app with multiple translations. None were as the dr claimed. What Bible does he quote?
So I guess Hugh Ross knows everything there is to know about everything. I can’t put my finger on it but my discernment meter has been going off for a while now. Some of these answers sound like he’s pulling them out of his hat.

Thanks, and enjoy. *Pro.8:* 13 To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech. 14 Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have insight, I have power. 15 By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just; 16 by me princes govern, and nobles-all who rule on earth. 17 I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me. 18 With me are riches and honor, enduring wealth and prosperity. 19 My fruit is better than fine gold; what I yield surpasses choice silver. 20 I walk in the way of righteousness, along the paths of justice, 21 bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love me and making their treasuries full. 22 “The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old; 23 I was formed long ages ago, at the very beginning, when the world came to be. 24 When there were no watery depths, I was given birth, when there were no springs overflowing with water; 25 before the mountains were settled in place, before the hills, I was given birth, 26 before he made the world or its fields or any of the dust of the earth. *Gen.1:* 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. *Isa.45:* 18 For this is what the Lord says- he who created the heavens, he is God; he who fashioned and made the earth, he founded it; he did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited- he says: “I am the Lord, and there is no other. *Jer.4:* 22“My people are fools; they do not know me. They are senseless children; they have no understanding. They are skilled in doing evil; they know not how to do good.” *2Pet.3:* 5But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly. *Rev.12:* 7Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9The great dragon was hurled down-that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. 10Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah. For the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. *Eze.31:* 15“ ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On the day it was brought down to the realm of the dead I covered the deep springs with mourning for it; I held back its streams, and its abundant waters were restrained. Because of it I clothed Lebanon with gloom, and all the trees of the field withered away. 16I made the nations tremble at the sound of its fall when I brought it down to the realm of the dead to be with those who go down to the pit. Then all the trees of Eden, the choicest and best of Lebanon, the well-watered trees, were consoled in the earth below. 17They too, like the great cedar, had gone down to the realm of the dead, to those killed by the sword, along with the armed men who lived in its shade among the nations. 18“ ‘Which of the trees of Eden can be compared with you in splendor and majesty? Yet you, too, will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the earth below; you will lie among the uncircumcised, with those killed by the sword. *Jer.4:* 23I looked at the earth, and it was formless and empty; and at the heavens, and their light was gone. 24I looked at the mountains, and they were quaking; all the hills were swaying. 25I looked, and there were no people; every bird in the sky had flown away. 26I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert; all its towns lay in ruins before the Lord, before his fierce anger. 27This is what the Lord says: “The whole land will be ruined, though I will not destroy it completely. 28Therefore the earth will mourn and the heavens above grow dark, *Gen.1:* 2Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. *Gen.1:* 3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. *Gen.1:* 26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth,
Not only that, but he knew what the snake would do and he needed the snake to do it. Maybe he even told the snake to do it. He's quite the scheme, the Lord. ;-)
Question does Ephesians 6:12 instigate God creation of materialistic world of the BIBLICAL 6 days of Genesis Does Ephesians 6: 12 instigate battle of Armageddon?
Hebrews 11:3 KJVS [3] Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. The Big Bang theory is essentially a knock off of He 11:3. The really only difference is we are somehow to ignore the fact that there was a incredibly dense singularity that spawned the universe we see around us. So where did the singularity come from? The same question is where did God come from? Since there is increasing scientific data pointing towards intelligent design. One would have to lean towards God creating the universe. In my particular case, some 37 years ago I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost, which was a powerful and emotionally moving experience that instilled the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. So when He 11:3 states that the worlds were framed by the word of God, that is a fact I cannot ignore.
Woman in the audience - who created God? Ross- that's a very good question. Me- No that's an unbelievably dumb question, because by definition God is eternal and that means he is uncreated, you can not create an uncreated being. And something HAS to have always existed because if there was ever a point at which there was nothing that existed then nothing would EVER come into existence because something can not come frome nothing... It's a dumb question that I constantly hear people ask.
It is a very good question. It requires one to understand time. Matter, Space, Time, and Energy ALL came from nothing. In the beginning God Created (the Heavens) and (the Earth). In the beginning God Created the Heavens and the Earth. (Bereshit bara Elohim et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz.) a) Bereshit bara Elohim (Hebrew) - “In the beginning God Created” b) et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz (Hebrew): "the heavens and the earth". c) This is a merism, a figure of speech indicating the two stand NOT for "heaven" and "earth" individually, but "everything" (The word "Universe" did not exist in Biblical Hebrew). The Bible is stating that the Universe had a “beginning”! It was documented ~3500 years before Dr. Hubble proved an expanding universe in ~1929. Any universe with mass that is expanding on average has a beginning.
P.S Question was there animal death ,before creation of Adam and Eve .Why ,I ask many people argue with me ,that there was not ,til Adam and Eve sinned. I argue yes ,because ,God told them if they ate of the tree of good and evil ,then they would die .Animals do not not sin against God .Only man sins .,plus you do not want over population of animals and insects and birds and fish etc . Adam must knew what death was ,when God said f you vailoate my command you will die . Am I right ? .
Simple answer, YES you are correct. When Adam and Eve ate of the fruit they died spiritually, not physically. Their death was hundreds of years later. Animals cannot sin. Psalms 104:21 tells us that God provided prey for the Lions. There is 76 quadrillion tons of biodeposits in the crust of the Earth we need to build a society of 8 billion people. So, yes lots of death. Death is part of life. Jesus died so we could live!
How does one interpret “ and there was evening and there was morning “ to mean many years of evenings & mornings. When you try to fit God’s Word to suit human scientific ‘knowledge’, it’s called human error.
I dont need religion to be awe inspired by the complex reality of our universe, with all its beauty and mystery. I just love learning, really its what i believe is the ultimate purpose of life. Dont impede yourself by taking the bible or whatever your holly book is, as gospel, no.pun intended. As we learn more and more these writings become obsolete. Wake up and read/research, question and enlighten yourself with observation and science.
I wish I had a mind like mr. Ross. God bless him. I was thinking the other night about the flat earth. If God said the earth is a circle,, the isnt that 1 dimensional?? If it were a globe wouldn't her of said it's a sphere or describe is as aimed thing round, not flat??
That is an ancient astronomical model common in the antiquities that depicts a flat and circular earth with a dom(firmament) above it where all the stars are, probably originates from Sumerian or Babylonian sources.
When you look down upon a sphere from a distance, it appears as a circle. You only pick up a sphere if you get close enough or at the right angle. Example: Look at the Moon. It appears as a flat disc sometimes and a glowing ball at other times. It is also a globe shape.
The reasons given for not believing in six literal days for Creation are inadequate and allow for death and suffering to enter the world before the Fall of Man.
Dr. Ross did not say he does not believe in a literal six days of Creation. That is on you. The sin of Adam brought spiritual death to man. He did not die physically when he sinned. Animals cannot sin. You a parroting verbatim an irrelevant YEC zealot talking point! Psalms 104:21 "prey" for Lions is DEATH!
It's easy to read Hebrew in phonetic in Roman Script. It took me around a month to get to reading the Hebrew without looking at the English corresponding words. Bayithamashiyach.com is a good example others exist as well. Genesis chapter one is very graphic as read in Hebrew, the traditional English translation runs fairly sloppy. It's in the details that this get's interesting. On day 4 the two great lights are prepared for........ On day six God tells the land to produce animals and then says God prepares the animals. On day 5 God "created" the sea creatures on day 6 God created Adam, not so for the animals. Fish growing legs is oddly supported by Genisis chapter one.
Dr. Ross, I notice that as you seperate verses 1-2 in Genesis 1 from verse 3... why..?? Because it says "Then God said..." at the begining of each day?? Fine... but then another problem arises: if yom in this context means "finite period of long time "i.e. 'age'", then there are SEVEN 'ages' of time, not six. The 7th day would be the 8th day... yet, the text called the SEVENTH day the day that God ceased. I'm certain you must be aware of this contrast... is this why you took Kaiset's position tgat onky the first 3 days were long periods of time, and the second 3 days as 24 hour days, and include the 1st two verses in day one, in that debate with Ken Ham 4 or 5 years ago...??
⁶ John 17:5 and John chapter 1 verse 1. And. JOB Job 38 VERSE 4 and VERSE. 7. HUGE ROSS. TELL US ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLD BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE MATERIAL WORLD In the Gen Genesis account of creation we are told about the material heaven's and the materialistic Earth Earth and sea and all that in them is
So glad I came across Dr Hugh Ross. He has blown my mind and a true gentleman. Thank you God 🙏💛
I was loosing faith in god, by watching atheist videos and having doubts. I prayed to god to talk to me reveal himself
I think Hugh Ross is sent from god to make people understand why god does indeed exist.
The church is so fortunate to have Dr.Ross & this ministry. We need to have men and women like him with his intellect and research that are devout Christians and are willing to speak in the arena of Science and faith. By God's Grace his research, intellect, and faith have produced some of the most credible works in the area of the Christian faith & science debates!

If there were a god, then would there be any demand for scripture interpretations by various podium-jockeys using fantasyland vocabulary?
We really should address the social acceptance of large numbers of people speaking a fantasyland vocabulary & openly indulging in the deceit of religious belief as a tool of fascism.
These are the wolves in sheep's clothing, we know them by their works:
A wicked generation seeking signs when Jesus The Nailed says faith is worthless if you can't move mountains by issuing verbal orders to one.
Freud wrote the antidote to Christianity is literacy.
The Christians slapped their books on the Old Testament, & the Mormons glued theirs on to them both, thus proving Christians lack quality-control.
Look at the verbose podium jockey speaking of faith & prayer as if we all should have a preference for travel with one foot in fantasyland.
Nothing fails like prayer in a children's hospital, & there is talk as if God does not have a perfect record of doing nothing, as if we had no reason for the saying: God helps those helping themselves.
A house divided cannot stand.
We vote because Christians have no quality-controls, & we desire those governing not making suggestions travel is best done with one foot in someone's fantasyland.
'Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.''
It was secular law & order ending the inquisitions & witch-killings.
One might expect a deity to make itself known to everyone without work performed in interpretations of old literature by guys like our verbose podium jockey.
Theologians acquire grand titles without certification from a deity, & project certainty using fantasyland vocabulary in an academic setting to compensate for lack of reason.
"Furthermore, whenever any person or group of persons in a position of great power, and without the full knowledge and consent of the public, uses such knowledge and methodology for economic conquest -- it must be understood that a state of domestic warfare exists between said person or group of persons and the public."

This man has changed my thoughts of the young versus the old earth. My family and I have an interesting discussions about it. But the cool thing is that even if he’s wrong, the end result doesn’t change. He believes in Jesus and I do as well. Whether the earth is young or old doesn’t matter in the end. It just matters if you believe in who created it.
Same here with previous talks I've heard him do. This talk through the days of Genesis was fantastic in walking us through the explanation of each account married with the scientific support of what scientists have observed.
Amen…glory to God🙏🏼☝🏼💐🌈❤️
@Janaina Ribeiro Why would you consider it doubting God to interpret the passage in a different way? There is not a clear, unmistakable interpretation of Genesis 1. You may feel there is, and some scholars are militant about their views. But this wouldn't be such a huge debate if it wasn't perfectly clear. Whatever view you hold isn't going to change salvation, Biblical authority and inerrancy, and any number of other doctrines.
@Janaina Ribeiro well then you better hope you are right about the proper interpretation of Genesis 1.
Ps. You are wrong about the interpretation of Genesis 1, and thank God that Jesus did NOT say... "For God so loved the world that whosoever PROPERLY INTERPRETS GENESIS 1 SHALL NOT PERISH."

WOW! Our brain dna & chemistry is closest to small mammals & birds-not the great apes!!! What an argument ending fact that easily disproves our alleged “evolution” from apes! God Bless Dr. Ross, always testifying invaluable truths!!!!!❤
When a bacteria evolves to withstand vaccines what would you call that? This happens over a few weeks, directly observed in a lab.
2. We see the evolution of animals/plants in the fossil record.
3. There are other hominid species that existed 1st, with similar but not yet evolved features.
4. This guy is extremely smart, but fails to look at the obvious. There are college courses with the word evolution in the title. Remember the "theory" of general relativity which has been accepted as fact- not complete but observed with out doubt. Same as evolution.
I think it really takes strong study in the original languages to truly understand God’s Word. A general knowledge of The Aramaic, Hebrew and Greek languages helps to truly make the Word understandable more fully.

As a traditionally taught Christian, Dr. Hugh Ross blows my mind, and pleasantly so. I mean, "we are in the seventh day" - what a revelation! I used to think I was born too late but now I believe I was born too early to have almost missed this wonderful end times teaching!
Yes it is an incredible time to be alive. A smart time to defend the faith. The depth and clarity of our reasons to believe have never been better. Our arguements, never better defended in the public eye. Our evidential list is longer, and the gospel is going forth in power, intelligence and love, now much more than ever. Remembering that the message of love at the cross is always key. The crescendo is building. Look now! The fields are ripe for harvest!
Apocalyptic religious movements are so toxic
Don’t be so vain. No one can predict the time or the day.

You mean like, "once upon a time"? Ya but its true, there was a beginning and God is the causal agent.
We love you Dr. Ross! From St.Louis, Missouri
Hey Hugh! I loved the part in your book in the Treasures in the Book of Job where you discussed birds attacking humans.... This scientific observation also made my brain automatically recall the Grimms version of Cinderella ( where the birds attacked the stepsisters and pecked out their eyes/bit toes off etc..) It makes me question whether there is a deliberate attempt to re-write the last few hundred years of human history.... Is it possible that our connection to soulish creatures was lost much more recently than we believe/we are taught to think through social conditioning and through our education systems?
One thing that I learned from Genesis is that the value of hardwork and trust. When God wanted to save Noah and his family, he did not say "let there be an arc". He commanded Noah to build an arc and bring those animals chosen by Him inside that arc. God trusted Noah to build that arc. He trusted his own creation. Noah and his family are not saved instantly. They work hard for it. So if we pray and ask God for something we want, we should not just pray. We also need to act and work hard for it to prove to God that we are worthy of what we are asking. We should be like Noah.
Awesome
Amazing
I love this man. I don’t beleive in litteral Genesis. I don’t beleive in a God that is fathering the human race. However, i have the utmost respect for this man’s knowledge and if i am ever to follow the teachings of the bible, it will take a man such as Doctor Ross to direct me on that path.
Great, keep reading his books, he is an incredible scientist and Christian.
You must know that there are other models to what Dr. Ross teaches but his is top notch. Its nice to hear it from a true scientist.
When I see graphs like the one presented around minute 23 it makes me think of episodes in history like the Cambrian. Where we saw an explosive growth in speciation all of a sudden, unexplained. It seems the more we discover about our planet the more we see it did not happen gradually but in periods of rapid growth followed by long periods slow or no development
Tons of answers !
Briliiant!
I believe that the point of reference, in addition to being from the surface of the Earth, under the clouds, is at a SPECIFIC PLACE on the surface of the earth, that most likely being the top of a mountain in the Middle East where God revealed the creation story to Moses through a vision.
It turns out that scientists have recently found LOTS of water trapped in the Earth's crust.
God made the Cambrian Explosion to happen at the time the Earth could sustain them, when the Earth was properly adjusted by HIM!
I believe that "Let there be light" refers to the ignition of the Sun. The reason that the Earth was "formless and void" before that is a reference to the aggregate proto planet that was revolving around the Sun in the protoplanetary disk before the Sun's ignition.
Sorry no. The word bara (Create) is only used 3 times in Genesis 1, It is not used here. Let there be light simply means that God changed the atmosphere of the early Earth, from opaque to translucent, allowing the light and radiation of the Sun, that was Created in the beginning, to reach the surface of the Earth. The book of Job tells us why the Earth was covered in darkness. Genesis 1:2 tells us the 4 starting conditions of the Earth. God did not Create (bara) the light here. He simply said let there be light. The Sun was Created with "the Heavens" and "the Earth" in the beginning.
In the beginning God Created the Heavens and the Earth. (Bereshit bara Elohim et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz.)
a) Bereshit bara Elohim (Hebrew) - “In the beginning God Created”
b) et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz (Hebrew): "the heavens and the earth".
c) This is a merism, a figure of speech indicating the two stand NOT for "heaven" and "earth" individually, but "everything"
(The word "Universe" did not exist in Biblical Hebrew).
@@MutsPub Look again. I did not use the word "Create." I believe your problem, and that of most bible scholars, is that you know much more about the Hebrew language than you do about stellar and planetary evolution. Stars and the planets around them exist for a long time as accretions of gas and dust. It is possible, and I believe probable, that the Earth existed as a protoplanetary blob revolving around a dark Sun. The Earth had not yet solidified and was still accreting matter in its orbit. The Sun existed, but had not yet reached the critical mass at which it "ignites." Ignition is the point at which fussion first begins in a star. So, I believe that the phrase "Let there be light" refers to the IGNITION of the Sun, not the "creation" of the sun.
@@GabrielVelasco 100% wrong. Sorry. What you are talking about is part of the faint Sun paradox. It has NOTHING to do with Genesis 1.

A summary of the Video:
The Harmony of Science and Scripture: Dr. Hugh Ross Discusses Earth's Geophysical History, Predestination, and Global Warming
Introduction Dr. Hugh Ross, an astrophysicist and Christian apologist, has spoken on various topics related to the interplay between science and the Bible, from the geophysical history of Earth to predestination, man-made global warming, and extraterrestrial life. By analyzing both biblical and scientific evidence, Dr. Ross highlights the harmony between the two, providing a solid foundation for the Christian faith.
Main Body
Earth's Geophysical History: Dr. Ross emphasizes the compatibility between the Bible's account of Earth's creation and the scientific understanding of the geophysical history of our planet. As our scientific knowledge increases, the harmony between Scripture and science becomes more evident, which strengthens the faith of believers.
Predestination and Free Will: Dr. Ross addresses the long-standing theological debate between predestination and free will by examining the Bible's teachings on both concepts. By considering God's ability to operate within and beyond our spacetime dimensions, it becomes possible for both divine predestination and human free will to coexist without contradiction.
Man-Made Global Warming: Dr. Ross argues that God has provided a period of extreme climate stability during a time of overall climate instability, allowing for human development and the fulfillment of the Great Commission. This perspective is supported by his book, "Improbable Planet" (Chapter 15).
Extraterrestrial Life: Dr. Ross believes that remains of life may be found on other solar system bodies due to Earth's extensive history of life. He has spoken at NASA about the possibility of finding fossils of Earth's first life on the moon, reinforcing the idea that the Bible's account of creation is supported by scientific evidence.
Evolution and Christianity: Dr. Ross discusses the debate between theistic evolutionists and atheists regarding common descent versus special creation. He cites evidence from mitochondrial DNA and Y chromosome DNA, which supports the biblical account of all humanity being descended from one man and one woman.
Great Commission and Second Coming: Dr. Ross emphasizes the importance of fulfilling the Great Commission, as Jesus promised to return once it is completed. He states that evangelical Christians today have the necessary resources to fulfill the Great Commission, but lack motivation.
Analysis Dr. Hugh Ross's discussions on various topics demonstrate the harmony between science and Scripture, providing a strong foundation for the Christian faith. As scientific knowledge advances, the compatibility between the Bible and our understanding of the natural world becomes increasingly evident.
Conclusion Dr. Hugh Ross provides evidence-based answers on various topics related to the interplay between science and the Bible, reinforcing the scientific accuracy and relevance of Scripture in today's world. By examining both biblical and scientific evidence, Christians can strengthen their faith and engage in meaningful dialogue with those who question their beliefs.

Pangea was the dry part in one only continent, that's why ocean species are fossilzed on top of the Everest or other mountain rangers. When water was Very busy.
Dr. Ross, the reason there isn't the qualifier "evening and morning" on day Seven, is because it is not a day of creation, but a SEPERATE (i.e HOLY... i.e. DISTINCT) day... a day of CESSATION from the work of creation. On the SEVENTH actual day, God CEASED His work of creation.
NOWHERE in day 4 does it say God created 24 hour days on THAT day. It says He created the heavenly bodies to be markers for TIME PERIODS and SIGNS. Time existed prior to day 4, because it was created on day ONE: "In the beginning..." 👈 the beginning = of TIME, SPACE, and MATERIAL. Every measurement of time existed BEFORE day 4, and all 6 days are qualified IDENTICALLY: "And there was mourning and there was evening." These "yoms" are qualified IDENTICALLY... They ARE the SAME. Either each is a long time period, or are they are literal 24 days... ALL of them.

Please explain the FIRMAMENT!!!
How do you reconcile the spinning globe earth with the Bible's description of a non-moving earth with a firmament?
Dr Ross, is it possible that time and the speed of light are subject to decay from the curse over creation and were at one time different than they are now, leaving the potential for a young creation which may also explain why we see light from so far away?
No
No, what curse over creation? we dont see light from so far away, light comes to our eyes from so far away.

Dr. Hugh Ross makes a lot of sense explaining the genesis creation scriptures. While Kent Hovind although very convincing lacks the scientific credibility and the right interpretation of the "days" of genesis in the Bible !
When he says that the word "YoM" is used for a period of time rather than a singular day in Genesis One, and then uses examples throughout scripture where that word was used as a period of time, he is incorrect. I checked the Hebrew in each instance that he cited on his website article. When the scriptures that he quoted indicated a period of time, the word was never "YoM" as it was in Genesis One. The word used for a period of time in each instance was either "BYoM" which means "in that day" or "YaMiM" which means days.
Seriously?
Simple search -
From Wikipedia -
"Although yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, the word yom has several literal definitions:[1]
Period of light (as contrasted with the period of darkness),
General term for time
Point of time
Sunrise to sunset
Sunset to next sunset
A year (in the plural; I Sam 27:7; Ex 13:10, etc.)
Time period of unspecified length.
A long, but finite span of time - age - epoch - season."
Also, a BIG CLUE is where it says 'and it was evening and it was morning...'
Hugh Ross's teachings help the evolution crowd with their beliefs ." If it is not right , then We will just add more time to it to make it right". Chuck MIssler believes in the " young earth". H e was a very good student of the Bible and was also explained why all the conditions at the creation of everything was different than they are now. It all "boils down" to one thing, you either believe that there is a God who can do all things, and that lives outside of time, His word is unfailing , He created time and the thing we know as the speed of light, He lives outside of time so He sees the beginning and the end of this thing called "Time". He has the ability to start time, stop time, adjust time, and even move time back, and in some cases even Compress time. There is no way under God's earth ,that a chart that is dividing the pass into millions of year will be any where close to the actual time that is depicted in his presented chart. If you do not believe Genesis , as written by Moses, who was given the past, by God who allowed Moses to "look at His backside", then you will have a hard time believing that someone died for your sins, and trusting Him as your Lord. There is only one way and that is to believe that there is only one God and that He send His Son, so we humans could have hope , that after we die , that there is a eternal after life with a God who wants us to be His children and wants to be our God. This thing called "Time " is speeding to the appointed end, if you ask how I know, you can compare the present to what , that is written in the Bible. Ask Jesus into your heart, and He will be your comfort and hope in a "time" like this.

We know that birds are descended from dinosaurs. I believe when Genesis says the birds appeared, it is letting us know that the time of the dinosaurs had passed.
That is an assumption. God Created birds. They did not evolve from dinosaurs. That would be macro-evolution. The change in the size of or hardness of Finches beaks is micro-evolution which is true. We can see bacteria micro-evolve in 20 minutes,
Why would that be necessary? God was in creation mode in those days, He wiped out some and created others.
So how do you transition from 3d to 4d
We don't in this lifetime.
God's ideal was that we should be vegan and in the beginning we were - Genesis "See, I give you every seed-bearing plant that is upon all the earth, and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit; they shall be yours for food. the fruit of the tree whose seed shall be food for you At the end we will be vegan. .."Isaiah "They shall not hurt, nor shall they kill in all my holy mountain, for the earth is filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as the covering waters of the sea. " All Christians should aim to avoid violence to animals.
if you read or studied some philosophy , you will understand where the scientific method came from, just ask Descartes , that's why we call philosophy mother of all sciences .

So every species and speciation was on the ark?
Not at all. The only animals on the Ark were those listed that were needed for man / Noah to start again in that region. Man only lived in a region. Not global. God forced man to spread out through the globe after the Tower of Babel (Genesis11:8-9) not before.
The only animals destroyed by the flood were those that had contact with man. The flood was universal but not global. All of mankind was destroyed except Noah and his family of eight people total.
2 Peter 2:5 states the world of the ungodly was destroyed. That does not mean the globe. World does not have to mean Globe.

Did all the people of the "world / countries / Earth" go to Egypt during the famine in Genesis 41:57? - No.
A “Global” flood can’t happen.
Day 3 of Creation Genesis 1:9.
God separated the land masses from the seas.
God's word is consistent.
Psalms 104:9. “SEA” boundaries were established by God and will NEVER cover the Earth again.
FIVE TRANSLATIONS:
1) KJV - You have set a boundary that they (the seas) may not pass over, That they (the seas) may not return to cover the earth.
2) NASB - You set a boundary so that they (the seas) will not pass over, So that they (the seas) will not return to cover the earth.
3) ESV - You set a boundary that they (the seas) may not pass, so that they (the seas) might not again cover the earth.
4) NIV - You set a boundary they (the seas) cannot cross; never again will they (the seas) cover the earth.
5) NLT - Then you set a firm boundary for the seas, so they (the seas) would never again cover the earth.
*(the seas) added for emphasis.
No global flood.
How do you explain the Red blood cells and soft tissues found in dinosaur bones?
How do you explain God telling Job to behold the hemoth/dinosaur, lethiathon...dragons...?
Did you just say dragons my dude? those are only fictional sadly, and the descriptions of behemoth and the unicorn sound like someone describing a hippo and rhino with embellishment to children.
@@bjk8794 because your only exposure has been in story books doesn't mean everyone else is as uneducated as you are. why don't you seek knowledge? Why would the Chinese emporer have an official dragon feeders, dragon be one of the animals on the Chinese calendar, all cultures have many many pictures in caves, archives, etc of dragons with men?
Why are fossil bones found with red blood cells and soft tissues in them?
Footprints...
Does the hippo have a tale like a cedar tree?
@@fitzroyarmour7391 If you would use Google instead of a creationist search engine for once in your life you would see what complete bullshit you are spewing out, the common depiction of reptilian figure in ancient times has nothing to do with the existence of the creatures but the fact that snakes were the primary predators of ancient primates and thus our deep facination and fear of them, that red blood cell thing has been explained already and it has to do with the preservative effects of iron oxide, for the future when you have these "smart ideas" how about ask what competent scientists of that specific fields have to say instead of just regurgitating horrible creationist arguments.
I am blessed to have come across Dr Hugh Ross through UA-cam. I love listening to him and his debates. He is always very calm but very intelligent
I sent a text of Dr. Ross "Hugh Ross" name to 31996 but it didn't work
Is there another number to use at this point in time in 2024?

The apostle Paul had the same problem, don't we all?
Genesis 1:1 contains 28 alphanumeric letters and 7 Hebrew words that encode Pi. John 1:1 contains 52 Greek alphanumeric letters and 17 words that encode the e natural logarithm. Together they create the Geometry of the 112th triangle number 6328. Jesus Christ in Greek has a sum total letter value of 2368, the anagram numbers of 6328. The LORD uses the Quadrivium to reveal Truth. Geometry,Cosmology,Music and the all is Number.

I think this is a great lecture. I think Dr. Ross does a good job of doing a logical walk through and fir the most part , he sites his source for his statements. I think where he falls short is where gets a little more speculative. Such as speculating that good created other mammals for things like fur and to use as test subjects.
Both of these speculations make the assumption that God knew ahead of time that mankind would sin. I don't believe there is a scriptural basis for that assumption. I would say the evidence is much stronger in the other direction, that God did not want them to sin.
Also the use of furs for clothing may not of been as neccessary pre-flood. Due to the veil of water surrounding the earth. It's quite likely that this effected the climate quite a bit.
Aside from those speculations I think Dr. Ross did a fantastic job laying out the facts.
Ephesians 1:4-5 English Standard Version (ESV)
4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 he predestined us[a] for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,
God did know man would sin. And He gave man Dominion over all the animals and the earth. Everything was created for man's benefit. But just like Satan man wasn't thankful or satisfied and wants to be God and still thinks they are.
'The Lamb slain BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD'
The church needs to focus on what’s written in red. If you want to be Christ-like, just read what Jesus said and follow him.
WHAT? one book (actually there were many competing bibles at the time- written by men) is comparable to thousands, even millions of scientific studies/ literature ! ?? no contest.
Genesis is not just a general history lesson.
Genesis is the world's first "science" lesson.
Best science fiction, better than Asimov
@@vuho2075 You live in fiction if it contradicts the truth of Genesis.
@@MyChihuahua It's only truth when there's evidence. And there hasn't been much proof for anything supernatural since the beginning of recorded history.
@@vuho2075 most of what you believe is fiction taken in faith with no evidence pushed specifically to contradict the truth in Scripture.
@@MyChihuahua What you're referring to is a ghost story, filled with supernatural beings, magic, and not a whole lot else...
Have a debate with Brian May, another astrophysicist and guitar player of Queen. You will get many views.
I was interested until his scripture references didn’t sound right. I double checked some with a Bible app with multiple translations. None were as the dr claimed. What Bible does he quote?
I have followed Dr Hugh 1:37 Ross for years. Without exception, his scripture references are correct.
So I guess Hugh Ross knows everything there is to know about everything. I can’t put my finger on it but my discernment meter has been going off for a while now. Some of these answers sound like he’s pulling them out of his hat.

*Pro.8:* 13 To fear the Lord is to hate evil;
I hate pride and arrogance,
evil behavior and perverse speech.
14 Counsel and sound judgment are mine;
I have insight, I have power.
15 By me kings reign
and rulers issue decrees that are just;
16 by me princes govern,
and nobles-all who rule on earth.
17 I love those who love me,
and those who seek me find me.
18 With me are riches and honor,
enduring wealth and prosperity.
19 My fruit is better than fine gold;
what I yield surpasses choice silver.
20 I walk in the way of righteousness,
along the paths of justice,
21 bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love me
and making their treasuries full.
22 “The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works,
before his deeds of old;
23 I was formed long ages ago,
at the very beginning, when the world came to be.
24 When there were no watery depths, I was given birth,
when there were no springs overflowing with water;
25 before the mountains were settled in place,
before the hills, I was given birth,
26 before he made the world or its fields
or any of the dust of the earth.
*Gen.1:* 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
*Isa.45:* 18 For this is what the Lord says-
he who created the heavens,
he is God;
he who fashioned and made the earth,
he founded it;
he did not create it to be empty,
but formed it to be inhabited-
he says:
“I am the Lord,
and there is no other.
*Jer.4:* 22“My people are fools;
they do not know me.
They are senseless children;
they have no understanding.
They are skilled in doing evil;
they know not how to do good.”
*2Pet.3:* 5But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
*Rev.12:* 7Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9The great dragon was hurled down-that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
10Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:
“Now have come the salvation and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
who accuses them before our God day and night,
has been hurled down.
*Eze.31:* 15“ ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On the day it was brought down to the realm of the dead I covered the deep springs with mourning for it; I held back its streams, and its abundant waters were restrained. Because of it I clothed Lebanon with gloom, and all the trees of the field withered away. 16I made the nations tremble at the sound of its fall when I brought it down to the realm of the dead to be with those who go down to the pit. Then all the trees of Eden, the choicest and best of Lebanon, the well-watered trees, were consoled in the earth below. 17They too, like the great cedar, had gone down to the realm of the dead, to those killed by the sword, along with the armed men who lived in its shade among the nations.
18“ ‘Which of the trees of Eden can be compared with you in splendor and majesty? Yet you, too, will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the earth below; you will lie among the uncircumcised, with those killed by the sword.
*Jer.4:* 23I looked at the earth,
and it was formless and empty;
and at the heavens,
and their light was gone.
24I looked at the mountains,
and they were quaking;
all the hills were swaying.
25I looked, and there were no people;
every bird in the sky had flown away.
26I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert;
all its towns lay in ruins
before the Lord, before his fierce anger.
27This is what the Lord says:
“The whole land will be ruined,
though I will not destroy it completely.
28Therefore the earth will mourn
and the heavens above grow dark,
*Gen.1:* 2Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
*Gen.1:* 3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
*Gen.1:* 26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth,
When God made Adam and Eve he surely knew they would eat from the tree He told them not to, humans are like that ,
Not only that, but he knew what the snake would do and he needed the snake to do it. Maybe he even told the snake to do it. He's quite the scheme, the Lord. ;-)
Question does Ephesians 6:12 instigate God creation of materialistic world of the BIBLICAL 6 days of Genesis
Does Ephesians 6: 12 instigate battle of Armageddon?
Hebrews 11:3 KJVS
[3] Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
The Big Bang theory is essentially a knock off of He 11:3. The really only difference is we are somehow to ignore the fact that there was a incredibly dense singularity that spawned the universe we see around us. So where did the singularity come from? The same question is where did God come from? Since there is increasing scientific data pointing towards intelligent design. One would have to lean towards God creating the universe. In my particular case, some 37 years ago I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost, which was a powerful and emotionally moving experience that instilled the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. So when He 11:3 states that the worlds were framed by the word of God, that is a fact I cannot ignore.
The correct translation and interpretation is 'ages' not 'worlds'.
First coming Israel Second coming Chile ⭐
Woman in the audience - who created God?
Ross- that's a very good question.
Me- No that's an unbelievably dumb question, because by definition God is eternal and that means he is uncreated, you can not create an uncreated being. And something HAS to have always existed because if there was ever a point at which there was nothing that existed then nothing would EVER come into existence because something can not come frome nothing...
It's a dumb question that I constantly hear people ask.
Thank you, I've said this for years.
It is a very good question. It requires one to understand time.
Matter, Space, Time, and Energy ALL came from nothing.
In the beginning God Created (the Heavens) and (the Earth).
In the beginning God Created the Heavens and the Earth. (Bereshit bara Elohim et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz.)
a) Bereshit bara Elohim (Hebrew) - “In the beginning God Created”
b) et hashamayim ve'et ha'aretz (Hebrew): "the heavens and the earth".
c) This is a merism, a figure of speech indicating the two stand NOT for "heaven" and "earth" individually, but "everything"
(The word "Universe" did not exist in Biblical Hebrew).
The Bible is stating that the Universe had a “beginning”! It was documented ~3500 years before Dr. Hubble proved an expanding universe in ~1929.
Any universe with mass that is expanding on average has a beginning.

P.S Question was there animal death ,before creation of Adam and Eve .Why ,I ask many people argue with me ,that there was not ,til Adam and Eve sinned.
I argue yes ,because ,God told them if they ate of the tree of good and evil ,then they would die .Animals do not not sin against God .Only man sins .,plus you do not want over population of animals and insects and birds and fish etc .
Adam must knew what death was ,when God said f you vailoate my command you will die .
Am I right ?
.
Simple answer, YES you are correct. When Adam and Eve ate of the fruit they died spiritually, not physically. Their death was hundreds of years later. Animals cannot sin. Psalms 104:21 tells us that God provided prey for the Lions. There is 76 quadrillion tons of biodeposits in the crust of the Earth we need to build a society of 8 billion people. So, yes lots of death. Death is part of life. Jesus died so we could live!
How does one interpret “ and there was evening and there was morning “ to mean many years of evenings & mornings. When you try to fit God’s Word to suit human scientific ‘knowledge’, it’s called human error.
Morning and evening does not equal 24 hours. Morning to morning, evening to evening would be 24 hrs.
I dont need religion to be awe inspired by the complex reality of our universe, with all its beauty and mystery. I just love learning, really its what i believe is the ultimate purpose of life. Dont impede yourself by taking the bible or whatever your holly book is, as gospel, no.pun intended. As we learn more and more these writings become obsolete. Wake up and read/research, question and enlighten yourself with observation and science.
I wish I had a mind like mr. Ross. God bless him. I was thinking the other night about the flat earth. If God said the earth is a circle,, the isnt that 1 dimensional?? If it were a globe wouldn't her of said it's a sphere or describe is as aimed thing round, not flat??
That is an ancient astronomical model common in the antiquities that depicts a flat and circular earth with a dom(firmament) above it where all the stars are, probably originates from Sumerian or Babylonian sources.
@@bjk8794 it could be flat, I think.
@@peggypriestcoleman7542 we all thought so until the greeks figured it out.
When you look down upon a sphere from a distance, it appears as a circle.
You only pick up a sphere if you get close enough or at the right angle. Example: Look at the Moon. It appears as a flat disc sometimes and a glowing ball at other times. It is also a globe shape.
@@MutsPub But if God said a circle, I think that's what he meant, just like the angles being on the four corners.
The reasons given for not believing in six literal days for Creation are inadequate and allow for death and suffering to enter the world before the Fall of Man.
Dr. Ross did not say he does not believe in a literal six days of Creation. That is on you. The sin of Adam brought spiritual death to man. He did not die physically when he sinned. Animals cannot sin. You a parroting verbatim an irrelevant YEC zealot talking point! Psalms 104:21 "prey" for Lions is DEATH!
It's easy to read Hebrew in phonetic in Roman Script. It took me around a month to get to reading the Hebrew without looking at the English corresponding words. Bayithamashiyach.com is a good example others exist as well. Genesis chapter one is very graphic as read in Hebrew, the traditional English translation runs fairly sloppy. It's in the details that this get's interesting. On day 4 the two great lights are prepared for........ On day six God tells the land to produce animals and then says God prepares the animals. On day 5 God "created" the sea creatures on day 6 God created Adam, not so for the animals. Fish growing legs is oddly supported by Genisis chapter one.
I wish i could ask how are chapplins are preacher and dont tink jesus is real
Dr. Ross, I notice that as you seperate verses 1-2 in Genesis 1 from verse 3... why..?? Because it says "Then God said..." at the begining of each day?? Fine... but then another problem arises: if yom in this context means "finite period of long time "i.e. 'age'", then there are SEVEN 'ages' of time, not six. The 7th day would be the 8th day... yet, the text called the SEVENTH day the day that God ceased.
I'm certain you must be aware of this contrast... is this why you took Kaiset's position tgat onky the first 3 days were long periods of time, and the second 3 days as 24 hour days, and include the 1st two verses in day one, in that debate with Ken Ham 4 or 5 years ago...??
