For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Exodus 20:11
“Infidel geologists claim that the world is very much older than the
Bible record makes it. . . . And many who profess to believe the Bible
record are at a loss to account for wonderful things which are found in
the earth, with the view that creation week was only seven literal days,
and that the world is now only about six thousand years old.
These, to
free themselves of difficulties thrown in their way by infidel
geologists, adopt the view that the six days of creation were six vast,
indefinite periods, and the day of God’s rest was another indefinite
period; making senseless the fourth commandment of God’s holy law. Some
eagerly receive this position, for it destroys the force of the fourth
commandment, and they feel a freedom from its claims upon them.” E.G.W.
