Nature of Creation

Young Earth view Mature Earth view Old Earth view Theistic evolution

Psalm 139

• "Fearfully and wonderfully made" • "Marvelous works"

Psalm 8

• "Little lower than God" • "Crowned with glory and honor"

Old Earth view

• Agrees with mainstream science that the universe and earth are billions of years old • Believes that life appeared in stages as God gave the commands • The Bible: This view holds that "days" in the Genesis creation account represent ages. Hence, Day-Age Theory
