How do you tell what parts of the Bible are from a 'heavenly perspective' and therefore subject to interpretation and what parts are not? Is it only those parts that man (i.e., science) accepts as 'true' (as routinely reinterpreted)?

Every diddle and jot of the Bible is true. It is only man that is not. In the Beginning G D created...not As I saw G D create.

Likewise scientist study and misinterpret their data. Since you I assume think these were earthly days how was there an "evening and the morning" the first day without our Sun? And how long was that day? G D is not the author of confusion that resides with the fallen one.

...how was there an "evening and the morning" the first day without our Sun?

Because the light that was created on day one, is different than the lights (plural) created on day four...sun stars, etc.

Now, what that light was on day one, I don't know, and I don't pretend to know. All I know is that there is a distinction between the two. This failure, by many, to understand this very clear, simple point, leads me to believe that those who raise an argument such as yours, simply have not read the text with any type of diligence.

That said, let me refer you to one of your previous posts in which you propose that creation is from God's perspective. In fact, I agree with you, so why is it so hard to understand that God would establish such a standard unit of time, from the beginning, for the purposes of understanding and communication with his special creation...and by extension, he would set the earth in motion to comply with this standard.

What is so hard to understand about that.

"Since you I assume think these were earthly days how was there an "evening and the morning" the first day without our Sun? And how long was that day? G D is not the author of confusion that resides with the fallen one."

Day and night only require a source of light. Read Rev 21:23.

The day was 24 hours long.

You are correct that your confusion is not of God.
