Seven Days of Creation


Picture
First Chapter of Genesis - The Story of Creation
There has been a raging debate about the first chapter of Genesis in the Bible for some time. Does this Divine Book in the Word of the Old Testament describe the creation of the natural world by God?  Or is God describing the creation of something else?

Creationism vs. Evolution - Intelligent Design - Or... Something Else?
Some religious people believe that the first chapter of Genesis is God's literal description of how He created the physical world. These people have felt that science has attacked their religious beliefs with the theory of evolution.  This has lead to the great debate between Creationism and Evolution, and more recently proponents of Intelligent Design have entered into the debate.
What is God's Meaning for His Words About Creation?
Yet, should not religious people ask questions about the meaning of the first chapter of Genesis?  Should we not ask... should we not wonder... What meaning God gives to His Own Words? The Rev. Theodore Pitcairn in his book "The Seven Days of Creation" addresses questions that have disturbed Christians about the Story of Creation, and supplies some surprising answers.

​The Book "The Seven Days of Creation" by Theodore Pitcairn
In his book, Rev. Pitcairn demonstrates that religious people need not feel threatened by the theory of evolution. He shows us that God's meaning for His Story of Creation is more wonderful than anyone has ever imagined. See his book broken into seven downloadable sections below.

A New Meaning for... A New Understanding of... The Story of Creation
Read for yourself... See for yourself... a new way to understanding the Story of Creation, which the theory of evolution can never disturb since it transcends worldly science:
​​
  1. First Day of Creation - The understanding of truth by the enlightenment of the human mind.
  2. Second Day of Creation - The distinction between inner and outer thought. Inspiration. Truth and how it purifies the mind.
  3. Third Day of Creation - The seeds of truth and their growth.
  4. Fourth Day of Creation - The source of life, love and faith.
  5. Fifth Day of Creation - How knowledges become living.
  6. Sixth Day of Creation - The Image and Likeness of God.
  7. Seventh Day of Creation - Rest after combat.
