On the Eighth Day
Then On the Eighth Day
The book of Genesis tells us that God created the heavens and earth in six days and rested on the seventh. After that the record is silent. So what happened?
Now comes the eighth day after creation and we might say what happened next? At that point the book begins to tell about human activity but we also learn that God was still busy overseeing creation perhaps even adjusting things a bit here and there.
Astronomy tells us that new stars are constantly being created so one might conclude that God is still working on creation even now. One would not want to limit God's activity so we can not say that God has stopped creating. This of course brings up the idea that perhaps God has created other beings in other places in God's image like us. They may not look like us but still have the spirit with in them. We have to say we don't know but that it is a possibility.
