Young Earth View – This view beliefs in the biblical creation account that the universe was created by God in six 24 hours days. Old Earth View – Beliefs in the biblical creation account, but beliefs that the creation days tool longer periods of time. This view agrees with mainstream science that the universe and earth are billions of years old. Theistic Elevation View – This view beliefs that life evolved as mainstream scientist say, but was directed by God. 2. The concept that humanity is created in the image of God may refer to a number of things. List four things: two covered in the textbook and two covered in the lecture. - Created to have domain over the earth. - Created to have free will. - Created to worship, and have a relationship with God. - Created to be like God, in his image. 3. What are the similarities between the scenes in Revelation 21:1-4 and the Garden of Eden in Genesis 2? In both scenes God’s presence is with his people, and he is living with his people. It is fitting that at the start of creation God was there with his people, and at restoration God will be with his people.
