The Bible gives us all the information we need to know with certainty the number of years from the creation of the world until events at the very end of the Old Testament. From there, modern history can tell us within a couple of years accuracy the number of years from then until now.
This sermon conclusively proves that the earth is approximately 6,244 years old (plus or minus no more than 25 years). Most Bible scholars and theologians come up with a lower number right around 6,000 years or lower because they either dont take the Biblical record for what it actually says, or they have a doctrinal agenda of keeping the number under 6,000 in order to prop up their dispensational teachings. Therefore they wrest the scriptures in order to come up with the answer they want.
However, anyone who approaches the Bible with an open mind and believes every word must come up with a higher number somewhere right around 6,244 years.
Other so-called Christians and theologians make statements like seven to eight thousand years old or millions of years old. This is nonsense and is easily proven false by this sermon.
