Genesis 1:1-5 are said to have happened in the first day.

5. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

Genesis 1:6-8 were said to be the second day:

8. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

Genesis 1:9-13 was the third day:

10. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

13. And the evening and the morning were the third day.

So in 10 it is pretty clear the Earth existed as dry land, and in 11 grass grown on the Earth.

Finally in 16 the Sun, the moon, and the Earth enter the picture:

16. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

If you deny that the sequential passing of days "doesn't necessarily give a sequential order to how things were created" then there is absolutely NOTHING that the Bible could say that would give a sequential order.

It can't get any more explicit than what it says.

You're so far in denial you should be embarrassed that you're actually saying these things publically.
