Question: How can the heavens and earth be created in 6 days when scientists say that it took billions of years?

Answer: The Bible says that God created the heavens and earth in 6 days (Genesis 2:2) while scientists say that it took billions of years. If God is the Almighty Creator who can accomplish anything, why can't He create the heavens and earth in 6 days? The Bible says that nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37). Moreover, God was there in the beginning while the scientist weren't there to witness the creation (Genesis 1:1). Therefore, whose account do you rather believe? God's or man's?
