Seven Days that Divide the World, 10th Anniversary Edition: The Beginning According to Genesis and Science Free Audiobook Download by John C. Lennox
The world as we know it was created in seven days according to Genesis. Each day is told from the perspective of each of the six days, seen through the eyes of God who is talking to Adam or Eve and explaining what they see. The seventh day begins where the first one ended, with God once again talking to Adam and Eve, this time about the sunset.
The story of Genesis and the theory of evolution are at odds with one another. The question is which one does science support? Evolutionary biologists like to say that their approach is scientific and therefore true, while biblical creationists claim that their approach can only be regarded as religious and therefore false. John C. Lennox offers a third option in his book, Seven Days that Divide the World, 10th Anniversary Edition: The Beginning According to Genesis and Science. He argues that the approach of science is neither true nor false because it doesn't seek to answer ultimate questions about life but instead uses a different set of methods such as empirical observation, experimentation, or mathematical modeling.
This is a series of philosophical and scientific arguments written by John C. Lennox, in an attempt to refute the claim that certain aspects of science conflict with the Bible. Following his own interpretation of Genesis, Lennox uses this book to show that not only are there no contradictions between science and religion, but there is plenty of evidence supporting religious contentions.
The 10th anniversary edition of John C. Lennox's book, "Seven Days that Divide the World" is an audiobook based on the author's original work. The author argues that Genesis 1-3 tells a story of God creating a powerful universe where he is able to create life and humans by denoting seven days without the intervention of any other time period. In contrast, he claims that science tells us that the world has developed over billions of years from a hot, dense gas before cooling into what we know today.
This is a book about the Genesis creation myth and how science can be used to test its veracity. Dr. John C. Lennox has been a professor of mathematics at the University of Oxford since 1985. This book, his first, was written in 2007 and published in 2008. In this popular account, he explores from a scientific perspective these seven days that are mentioned in the Bible, which he asserts were not literal days but rather long intervals of time comprised of smaller units.
Imagine never having to argue with your family again. Imagine never needing to spend hours, days and weeks explaining the scientific case for God. Imagine never having to answer questions about the origins of man and the universe. Imagine being able to show actual evidence of a Creator, past or present, all around us.
