Dealing With the Age of the Universe, and Q&A

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (03/04/24), Hank says a few words about the issue of the age of the universe. The Bible is not designed to give us the age of the universe, but if you look at general revelation you see God’s handiwork. One of the things we see is the reality that nothing travels faster than the speed of light, and that billions of light-years separate us from distant galaxies. That leads logically to the assumption that the age of the universe is measured in billions of years, not thousands.

Hank also answers the following questions:
