We know in Genesis, when Adam sinned, God cursed the ground/earth.
Peter tells us the Earth will be purified of all Sins and curses by Fire before New Jerusalem arrives.
How do you know you are not dating the Effects of Sin, not an Earth, had Adam not sinned, would be as it was the day it was Spoken into Existence?

God created the earth on the first day. But there must have been building blocks already in place.
It's like me creating a boat tomorrow.
I could create one in a day but the true age will not be known because I won't really know how old the wood was.
Or I could build a house out of stone that's been on the earth for thousands of years.
I could say I've built a new house but the true age of the house would be how old the rocks where.
Personaly speaking I would of thought the earth was created the same way.
With rocks that could be billions of years old.
I Think it's common for Christians who are not builders to automaticy think the lord created the earth out of thin air. forgetting the building blocks.
but when you speak of the earth being cleansed of sin are we talking about the rocks too
or are we refering to parts of the earth that formed us ?.
