Gap+Theory

=Gap Theory= Joy and Katelyn

Description of theory Bible verses that support this theory Arguments for this theory In Isaiah it talks about how Lucifer fell from heaven out of Gods favor. Lucifer was the one that tempted Eve in the garden. So he would have had to fall from heaven sometime during creation. Most scientists belive that this happened during the Gap. Arguments against this theory In the Bible it clearly says that everything is created over the course of 7 days. Because there is no physical events supporting this theroy or not supporting it, we can not know for sure exactly how the earth was created. All we have is the Bible and we have to trust what it says.
