Yet on other threads you have said that you favour Dispensationalism because it takes a literal approach (to literature which is obviously not literal), yet you favour a non-literal approach to a historical account? Seems a very strange position to hold?
Tell me, why can't the word day mean a literal day in Genesis 1? What is the significance of the phrase the "evening and the morning" if the day age theory is correct?
