When God said, "Let there be LIGHT". There was LIGHT! And that LIGHT is still EXPANDING.
Kolb and Turner wrote, "Since the UNIVERSE has a finite age, and LIGHT travels at a finite speed, there may be events in the past whose LIGHT has not had time to reach us."

TRUSTING THE HISTORY
"..in this era of history, the most attacked part of the Bible's history is Genesis 1-11. When people understand they can trust the history of the early chapters of Genesis, they can better understand and be more responsive to the gospel--the gospel that is based

Our solar system bears witness to orderly, careful design. Consider the slant of our earth, tilted at a 23° angle. If it wasn't so tilted, we would lose not only our seasons, but life itself, as the vapors from the ocean would move north and south, piling up continents of ice.

WORKS OF THY HANDS

GOOD versus GREAT
Bill Cosby said it this way:
God made a tree and said it was (pause) Good.
God made a rabbit and said it was (pause) Good.
Man made the refrigerator and said it was Amazing.
Man made the car and said it was Awesome or Fabulous.
We are fanatical about our creations. Praising

MIRACLES
I’m reminded of the poem by Clay Harrison entitled "Miracles:"
"Miracles can be large or small
according to God’s Plan.
And they need no explanation
for the unbelieving man.

With the faith of a mustard seed
we’ve seen His
