I don't believe the young earth theory is correct, so I am not sure I should answer this question. Yet, such a question really has no impact for it assumes God ought to create in some way. What is the reason for this oughtness?Deborah wrote:Question
If young earth theory is correct, then what did the lord do for millions of years? Sit their playing tidly winks?
Now whether God played tidly winks for seconds, hours, years, millions of years, or at all during His days of creation, such has no impact upon God's chosen method of creation. For all we know, He's been playing tidley winks for all eternity.

Simple answer is because that's where Scripture and natural revelation lead me. I don't pick my beliefs based on what I am.AttentionKMartShoppers wrote:Why must the earth be old to you people? Only evolutionists need an old earth...
Now why not believe God created over generations within "a day" as Genesis 2:4 reads: "These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens."
Why is the seventh day still going?—'For He has thus said somewhere concerning the seventh day, "And God rested on the seventh day from all His works..." Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest [God's rest on the seventh day], lest anyone fall through following the same example of disobedience.' (Hebrews 4:4-11).
Why declare the mountains to be "ancient" and the hills to be "age-old" (Habakkuk 3:6) if mankind has been around just as long? (see also Psalm 90:2-6, Proverbs 8:22-31, Ecclesiastes 1:3-11, Micah 6:2)
