What about the Gap Theory?

The Creation Ministries International article “Gap Theory Revisited” delves into the contentious Gap Theory in biblical creationism. This theory posits a significant time gap within the Genesis creation narrative, particularly between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2, to accommodate geological ages and the fossil record. The article critically examines the interpretation of the word ‘replenish’ in Genesis 1:28 from the King James Bible, exploring whether it implies a need to fill an already created but desolate earth. Contributors, including Dr. Jonathan Sarfati and Lita Sanders, engage in a detailed discussion, offering insights into the complexities of harmonizing scientific findings with the biblical account of creation.
