Young Earth vs Old Earth Debate (1/10), Ken Ham & Jason Lisle vs Hugh Ross & Walter Kaiser

Ken Ham, Answers in Genesis president, is perhaps the most widely recognized creation-apologist in the world today. He and AiG astrophysicist Dr. Jason Lisle engage Drs.Hugh Ross (Reasons to Believe) and Walt Kaiser (president of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary), both of whom are proponents of an old earth, no-global-flood view of Bible interpretation. In this eye-opening debate, well-mannered disagreement is punctuated by intriguing confrontations as these four Christian leaders communicate their views.Ham and Lisle implore Ross and Kaiser to accept the Genesis account of history as written, while Ross and Kaiser argue for their view that the first chapters of Genesis are more symbolism than history. This specially prepared version, produced by AiG, features the exact programs as edited and broadcast by the John Ankerberg TV ministry [ http://www.jashow.org/ ].

[graymatter247]

you know who is missing in this debate? god. he should explain his book, just saying

[7BroncoBoy]

@graymatter247 He explained it plain and clear, but there are guys like Ross and Kaiser who want to look wise in the world's eyes, therefore they compromise on the truth.

[angryspidertv]

@7BroncoBoy I don't know what you mean by 'compromise'. If you mean looking at science, which is the simple observations of nature and trying to fit it into the simple and easy to understand words of the Bible, then that's hardly compromise. I don't see what problems you have with the Big Bang model... it's perfectly biblical. Look up verses:

Ezekial 1:22, Isaiah 40:22, 42:5, 44:24, 45:12, 48:13, 51:13, Jeremiah 10:12, 51:15, Job 9:8, 26:7, 37:18, Psalms 18:9,104:2,144:5, 2Sam 22:10, Zech 12:1

[7BroncoBoy]

@angryspidertv The big bang totally contradicts the order of events in God's word. The Bible has the earth created 3 days b4 the sun, moon & stars - totally the opposite! The big bang starts the earth as a hot molten mass & .7 billion yrs later the ocean forms. The Bible has the earth covered in water on day 1. the BB contradicts Ex 20:11 "For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them" The BB takes place over billions of yrs rather than a few days.

[joshuahardy95]

There debating as if they are great scientists the top of there profession.

[Canlander7]

Even a child can understand the text. It's ONE 24-HOUR DAY!

[GinaToySculptor]

There is no Biblical Account for the age of the earth in the Genesis account.

[jimbxb]

@7BroncoBoy thats one giant leap for stating the obvious

[Mrhawklanz]

I take the Bible over Science anyday.

[TheMuffnstuff]

funny how they cut ken off alot, open genesis God called the light day and the darkness he called night! why do they argue something so simple, people keep running from God, he is not a God of confusion, so if he says day he means day.

[RespectMyHate]

@ParasiteQueen1 Amen. And our modern day week continues to testify to this truth.

[ParasiteQueen1]

God created everything in 6 literal days, and He rested on a literal 7th day.

[usernameofnobody]

Oh me oh my.

[Pilgrim1411]

ALL of the Church Fathers believed the earth was less than 6,000 years old at the time they wrote. Read GENESIS, CREATION AND EARLY MAN, by Father Seraphim Rose for the truth.
