PQRC 4: Meaning of "very good"
Question PQRC 4 — Meaning of "very good"
|
In Genesis 1:31 all of God’s creation was described as “very good”. This has been taken to mean that humans (as part of God’s creation) were neither immortal nor (yet) dying. Is this a justifiable interpretation?

Reconciliation Challenges
PQRC 1: Acts 17:26 — a literal single male ancestor, or modern science?
Reconciliation Challenge PQRC 1 — Acts 17:26 – a single male ancestor?
|
There is a body of scientific evidence that people are not descended from a single male ancestor. Acts 17:26 includes the statement that God “made from one [man/source/stock(?)], every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth”. Can these be reconciled?

PQRC 2: Does the earth move?
Reconciliation Challenge PQRC 2 — Does the earth move?
|
There is a body of scientific evidence that the earth is spinning on its axis and rotating around the sun. However the Bible states that God "set the earth on its foundations, so that it should never be moved." (Psalm 104:5, ESV) and the experience of Joshua (Joshua 10:10-15) and Hezekiah (Isaiah 38:8) back this up. Can these be reconciled?
