Or are you apostle, prophet, pastor, & teacher all rolled into one?
No thats Jesus. Don't need anyone else. Including you. You can have the last word.

OK, I'll have the last Word then:
- Ephesians 4
And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine...
- Ephesians 5:21
submitting to one another in the fear of God.
It appears as if you are violating quite a number of the things in the Bible. So, if you are unable to submit to the visible body of Christ, which can be clearly seen, I see no reason that I should act as if you actually do submit to Christ himself. It's a 1 John 4:20 kind of thing.

"The account in Genesis begins AFTER the Universe was created..it specifically speaks to the organization of the earth ( in 6 days as we count time). So it is possible that the "universe " ( including the earth ) was billions of years old as we understand time..BEFORE God organized it and populated it.. Actually the Bible begins with the creation of the Heaven and the Earth, not the universe. The two Great lights and the stars, were not made until the fourth day, after that I have difficulty with the "era" explaination, since they were for signs and seasons and days and years.
"The bible is also clear that light pre existed the sun and the moon...so the problem of vegation is moot.."
The problem of vegation is moot, only if you admit that the plants could get their energy from another source other than the sun or stars. That God assoiated the sun, moon and stars with the number 4 was no accident, you see it elsewhere in Scripture. I have difficulty with those who say God did not make the sun, moon and stars on day 4.

Hey I think we agree some huh? I never gave much thought to the Bible 7 day account not being the Universe..It opens with the earth already formed..The Spirit of God hovering over it
I took a college level class on creation a year ago and that was never pointed out..then last Sunday it was the topic of the adult Sunday school..it was an aaaaahhhhhaaaaa moment for me.
I do not know what you mean by the era explanation...I believe the Sun and moon were made to be like the trees and seed bearing vegation to be self existant..and they marked the day and night and measure time for us..I take the Biblical day as 24 hours..period!...
