Yesterday we learned that Jesus told the religious leaders that if they believed Moses, they’d believe him. Clearly Jesus took the first five books of the Old Testament as literal history—and so should we!

And in Moses’ writings we read “for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them and rested on the seventh day.” We have a seven-day week, with one day of rest, because God created in six days and rested one day. Now if the days of creation were millions of years each, the basis for our week makes no sense!

We can trust the writings of Moses because they’re the very words of God.
