Jesus turned water into wine instantly. That shows Jesus can take something and make it appear any age he wishes.

And no.. I don't believe any of this really matters. What matters is choosing Jesus as your Lord.

Are you saying that the wine looked old?

And second, are you saying that Jesus created the universe thousands of years ago, but he wanted to deceive us into believing it's billions of years old?

Or are you just suggesting that Jesus could deceive us if he wanted?

24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

Well if it helps there's a star called methuselah that somehow is dated to 14 billion years old. 200 million years older than the universe!
