If God made the world in six days. Why does it take him 2000 years to make his kingdom?

I might not be the best to answer but, my pastor said that in the bible it says something like a day to god is like 10000 years (or something along those lines) so 6 days might be an under exxageration.

we use "day" in diffrent contexts:
"on this day I did..."
"it was night, now it is day."
"in my day... I had to walk to school, uphill! Both ways, with only one shoe between the 5 of us..."
"in this day and age..."
if this has something to do with evolution, the best answer I've ever gotten came from my current college professor. He taught that the hebrews were not concerned with the exact "how" or "when" or "how long" of Creation, the only thing that mattered to them was "God did it" that's all Genisis says, and making it say something it doesn't is just silly. I don't personally beleive evrythign about evolution because I was in a Biology class last year that tried to teach the in-depth step-by-step version of evolution and I found that no matter how hard I tried I couldn't beleive more then a word ehre and there. The bible however doesn't refute evolution.

i don't question God. He wants to take a million years it is fine with me. He took a stripper and made a respectable person out of them then who am i to tell Him how to do His job?

Because He wants lots of people in His kingdom ^-^
Lol, I don't think we really know. But if you think about it...if He made His kingdom at the start, there wouldn't be much sense in Christ dying and all that stuff, and the point of having free will would be null. He wants us to choose Him, and in order to do that there has to be some other option. More time, more people to choose Him. That's the way I look at it, anyways.

Hynata Huga well what my mom says is that Gods day may not be the same as our day so his day might be 1000 years for us i dont know ya'lls ages but im 25 and from what i hear, 1000 years for us is a day for him, so it took 6000 years for everything to be created, and He rested for 1000 (the 7 days thing)
