Scripture Post #1,347: *SUN, MOON & STARS*

Genesis 1: 

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

GOD created earth in 6 days and rested on the seventh—the Sabbath. (Genesis 2:2: "And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made." 

Verse 3: "And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.") 

Context:

Gen. 1:14: "And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:"

V. 15: "And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so." 

V. 16: "And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also."

V. 17: "And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,"

V. 18: "And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good."

V. 19: "And the evening and the morning were the fourth day."

Time as we know it began on day 4 of Creation. Time is determined by the light GOD placed in the sky: *SUN, MOON & STARS*.
