God created the earth in six days(Genesis 2:1-3 ), and on seventh day he placed Adam in the garden of Eden(Genesis 2:15). One day of God's time is a thousand years of earth time(2Peter 3:8; Psalms 9:4). Adam was placed on the earth about four thousand years before the birth of Jesus Christ which is, year one; therefore, to the present day it's been about six thousand and nine years since Adam was placed upon the earth. We are nine years into the seventh and last thousand years. This last thousand years from the year two thousand is very significant for the earth and the people now upon its face, and they who died after the resurrection of the Lord, and they who are yet to be born into the world. Terah, mentioned in Genesis 11:32, died about 1920 BC, so from the beginning of the organization or creation of the earth to Terah death, about eight thousand and eighty earth years had passed; that's if my maths are correct. So the period between Geneses 1:1 and Geneses 11:32 is about 8080 years. From the commencement of Creation to the present year it's been about twelve thousand and nine years; and from Adam to the present day, about six thousand and nine years.>
