Scientists first make observations that raise a particular question. In order to explain the observed phenomenon, they develop a number of possible explanations, or hypotheses. This is the inductive part of science, observing and constructing plausible arguments for why an event occurred.
As indicated earlier, the Bible does not fix the age of the earth, contrary to the claims of Answers in Genesis. Historically, their claim comes from the work of James Ussher, Bishop in the Church of Ireland, from 1625 to 1656.
The Millennium is the 1,000 year reign of Christ on earth after He returns at the 2 nd coming (Rev. 20:1-10). During this time, Jesus will set up His Kingdom in Jerusalem and people will continue to live on earth until the earth is destroyed at the end of the millennium (2 Pet. 3:10-13, Rev. 20:11).Many people wrongly believe that the earth is destroyed with Jesus returns.The 2 nd coming is not the end of the world, but the end of the age --the end of this time period as we know it (Matt. 24:3).:10-13, Rev. 20:11). Many people wrongly believe that the earth is destroyed with Jesus returns. The 2 nd coming is not the end of the world, but the end of the age --the end of this time period as we know it (Matt. 24:3).
