Transcript

Yesterday we looked at the question of “how long did God take to create?” We learned that day in Genesis one means, well, day—a twenty-four-hour day! And the book of Exodus confirms that.

In Exodus 20, when God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, he said, “For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day.” Exodus confirms—God created in just six days! And that’s why we have a seven-day week. Our week isn’t millions of years long because God created over millions of years. It’s seven days because God created in six days and rested for one.

Yes, God created in six days.
