No desire to start an argument, but Genesis chapter 1, verse 3-5 tells exactly what a day is and it has never changed. If we are to rely on the Bible, we must take it all........... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joyce Gaston Reece" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, December 28, 2012 12:43 PM Subject: Re: [CherokeeGene] DNA-Barb > In Genesis we are taught that God created the heavens and the earth in > seven > days.....again an English term.
