A couple of years ago an important Facebook Group was created that advances this model of biblical creationism. Their “About” page gives this summary:
About this group
This Page is intended to promote and discuss the idea of a Young Biosphere Creation.
What is that you may ask. It is the plain reading of the Hebrew of Genesis 1, Exodus 20:11, Job 38, and Psalm 104.
It is the scientific evidence of the geologic column giving testament to Noah’s worldwide flood. It is the scientific evidence against a random start of life and a random shift from one family of life to another. And it is showing the magnificence of God in creating the immense universe and spherical Earth for our care and study. This without the deception that would be from distant star light and debilitating heat created from accelerated radioactive decay.
In short, it is that life is shown to be young – flowers created needed bees within days to survive – no long age days.
Life is young – no 100,000 year old mankind – the biological family generations fit extremely well to several thousand years.
The Earth and the universe could be several thousand years old or billions of years old – the Bible is silent on this.
We are not – repeat not – the gap theory. We see the geologic column not caused by a so-called Lucifer flood, but by Noah’s flood.
We are not YEC – the Earth and universe could be quite old. We are not OEC – life is young and Noah’s flood was worldwide.
We are not progressive creation – the flowers needed the bees and the Hebrew word yom for day is defined as a 24 hour day by the context having morning and evening. The creation week begins with Genesis 1:3. Each day is a sequential, consecutive, 24 hour day. The actions for each day are not a prophecy, they are completed within that day.
This idea of YBC is not new.
Welcome to Young Biosphere Creation (YBC) – come discuss and we hope you will also promote YBC.
