"There are three convincing arguments against Grudem’s views that Agabus gave a partially false prophecy to Paul. (1) Contrary to Grudem, the Apostle Paul was in fact delivered to his captors despite the will of the Jewish mob. (2) Contrary to Grudem, the Apostle Paul was delivered to his captors by legal compulsion. (3) Apparently unknown to Grudem, the Apostle Paul was willingly delivered by the Jews in spite of Roman jurisprudence (p. 92)." Gary E. Gilley, Review of: ‘The Fallible Prophets of New Calvinism’ by Michael John Beasley, Ref-0785 Vol. 17 No. 52 (Winter 2013), 272-275, p. 274.

✪ See Ref-0232, pp. 121-122 for tables which summarize the views of church fathers regarding the duration of the days of creation and the age of the earth. "Origen, Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, Augustine-all denied that, for instance, the creation story in Genesis was an actual historical record of how the world was made (Augustine did write what he called a "literal" interpretation of Genesis, but it was not literal in any sense a modern fundamentalist would recognize)." Ref-1290, p. 63. ". . . patristics scholar Benno Zuiddam has documented that Augustine was a fervent ‘young-earth’ creationist, and far more ‘literal’ than most theistic evolutionists realize." Lita Cosner and Jonathan Sarfati, Non-Christian philosopher clears up myths about Augustine and the term 'literal', Ref-0784 27(2) 2013, 9-10, p. 9. "But Augustine also held to an age of the earth at less than 6,000 years old, noting that those works that argued for deep time were ‘highly mendacious’, arising from pagan philosophers." Andrew Sibley, Lessons from Augustine’s "De Genesi ad Litteram--Libri Duodecim", Ref-0784 27(2) 2013, 71-77, p. 72. "Clement’s comments in The Stromata makes it clear that he believed the [creation] days were literal. Augustine held to an instantaneous creation and therefore interpreted the days of creation allegorically, although he was not entirely happy with this approach. Nevertheless, he believed in a young earth that was only thousands of years old, not billions." Andrew S. Kulikovsky, The theological corruption of the Evangelical Church, Ref-0784 27(2) 2013, 129-127, p. 122.

"Implied precision and potential cultural differences (e.g. calendar systems, birthday conventions, and rounding conventions) mean we cannot pinpoint the age of the earth to a single year, yet the accumulated imprecision from those sources is limited to a maximum range of 308 years. Even including textual variants and debates over interpretation does not allow for dates approaching 10,000, let alone billions of years of Earth history. Accounting for all presently known relevant details and assuming the Babylonian Captivity began in 587 or 586 B.C., we can say with confidence that the bible places limits on the year of creation between 5665 and 3822 B.C. The uncertainty within this range is mainly driven by textual considerations. The Masoretic/LXX debate creates a 1,326-year dichotomy, the Long vs. Short Sojourn positions differ by 215 years, and various interpretations of the lists of the kings of Judah and Israel equates to around 54 years of additional uncertainty."

"While the very long lives attributed to the earlier personages in this line have led to critical doubts about their existence, it may be remembered that the Sumerian King List from ancient Mesopotamia also gives names from before and after the flood, with even more extreme figures of reigns, and yet inscriptional and other evidence makes it likely that among these, for example, Enmebaragisi was a real ruler of the city of Kish and Gilgamesh a real ruler of the city of Uruk, thus high numbers of years in lifespans or in reigns in later texts do not necessarily prove that the persons named were unhistorical." Ref-0840, p. 196. "The world's oldest person, a 117-year-old Japanese woman, has died. Nabi Tajima died of old age in a hospital Saturday evening in the town of Kikai in southern Japan, town official Susumu Yoshiyuki confirmed. She had been hospitalized since January. Tajima, born on Aug. 4, 1900, was the last known person born in the 19th century. She reportedly had more than 160 descendants, including great-great-great grandchildren. Her town of Kikai is in Kagoshima prefecture on Kyushu, the southernmost of Japan's four main islands. She became the world's oldest person seven months ago after the death in September of Violet Brown in Jamaica, also at the age of 117. Video shown on Japanese television showed Tajima moving her hands to the beat of music played on traditional Japanese instruments at a ceremony to mark the achievement. The U.S.-based Gerontology Research Group says that another Japanese woman, Chiyo Miyako, is now the world's oldest person in its records. Miyako lives south of Tokyo in Kanagawa prefecture, and is due to turn 117 in 10 days. Guinness World Records certified 112-year-old Masazo Nonaka of northern Japan as the world's oldest man earlier this month, and was planning to recognize Tajima as the world's oldest person." -- Associated Press, Nabi Tajima, world's oldest person, dies in Japan at 117, [http://www.foxnews.com/world/2018/04/21/nabi-tajima-worlds-oldest-person-dies-in-japan-at-117.html] accessed 20180421.

age - radiometric age of earth and moon :

"The oldest accepted radiometric ages for lunar rocks are about 4.25 Ga [million years ago], but the oldest accepted terrestrial rocks have ages of about 3.95 Ga. How is this explained? Both bodies are thought to have undergone geological activity, so that no primordial rocks exist on either one. . . If there are no primordial rocks on the earth, whence comes the 4.59 Ga age for the earth? That age comes from radiometric dating of a certain class of meteorites, from which the age of the solar system, and most of the bodies in it, has been inferred." Ref-0003, 13(2) 1999, p. 58. "There are many examples where the dating methods give “dates” that are wrong for rocks of known historical age. One example is rock from a new dacite lava dome at Mount St. Helens volcano. Although we know the rock was formed in 1986, the rock was “dated” by the potassium-argon (K-Ar) method as 0.35 +/- 0.05 million years old. And dates from mineral concentrates from the rock samples gave “dates” as old as 2.8 Ma. Another example is K-Ar “dating” of five andesite lava flows from Mount Ngauruhoe in New Zealand. The “dates” ranged from <0.27-3.5 million years -- but one lave flow occurred in 1949, there in 1954, and one in 1975!" Ref-0232, p. 384.
