On which day was the Earth created?

My simple understanding of which day the Earth was created.

A specific day, ie, day one two, three, / Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc, is also not mentioned or named, but God does tell us when the Earth, in fact when He began planning and creating everything. The answer lies here, IN THE BEGINNING, in Gen. 1:1, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." I believe it was not 6000 years ago, or billions even trillions of millennia times many trillions more ago, I believe God has been working / creating, FOREVER!

But that's not all! We know, because he tells us that He has been around forever! He is an eternal being, no beginning no end.

(Rev 1:8, I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty).

Jesus tells us that He works and that His Father works;

"John 5:17, " But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work".

Jesus also tells us that He and His Father have been working / creating forever in these three scriptures;

John 1:1, "IN THE BEGINNING was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

John 1:2, The same was IN THE BEGINNING with God"

John 1:3, All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

And so its by these simple scriptures we know God and the Word have been working / creating since forever past, and they will continue to work forever.

Isa 40:28, Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

No where in the entire Bible does any scripture say, 6000 years ago God created the heaven and the Earth? It clearly states, "IN THE BEGINNING." I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, IN THE BEGINNING was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was IN THE BEGINNING with God" All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made, because, Jesus tells us; "My Father worketh hitherto, and I work". And they are not about to retire any millennium soon?

I just gave my opinion of how I saw creation, I never meant to shut down the discussion?

Hi Bibleman.

Am I correct in believing God the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost have been working / creating the countless angels, stars, galaxies, planets, suns, moons, the earth, beings of every kind, principalities, powers, since forever past? That's what I understand from reading the Scriptures I mentioned!
