In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
The earth was formless and void,
and darkness was over the surface of the deep,
and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.
Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
God saw that the light was good;
and God separated the light from the darkness.
God called the light day,
and the darkness He called night.
And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
Genesis 1:1-5
Watch this short but compelling clip!
And then forward it to anyone and everyone you know
that believes or might believe in evolution and then simply ask:
Can you please explain this to me?
Here is the problem for evolution in a nutshell; Charles Darwin himself gave us a test that would prove evolution a false theory: Darwin said; "The test Darwin set for his theory was this: "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down." These complex organs that Darwin spoke of that would destroy the validity of the theory of evolution have now been revealed in hundreds if not thousands of molecular biological experiments.
In his groundbreaking bestseller "Darwin's Black Box" Molecular Biology professor Michael Behe explains the scientific concept of a Black Box. A black box would be those parameters beyond which scientists have little or no knowledge. In ancient times, all of biology was a black box, because no one understood on even the broadest level how living things worked. With the advent of modern biochemistry, scientists are now able to look at the rock bottom level of life and into the areas which are inside of "Darwin's Black Box". This viewpoint is light years beyond Darwin's understanding (Darwin's perspective was very limited scientifically) and modern science has discovered evidence that now demands a verdict.
The problem is that atheistic evolutionists have accepted the evolutionary theory with Darwinian Evolution as their religion of sorts. They are standing by faith on issues that are clearly not true, teaching others this false religious dogma and marginalizing anyone who attempts to question their theory scientifically or otherwise.
Make no mistake about, I believe that there is much evidence for creation, but I have accepted the Biblical Truth on the basis of faith in Jesus Christ and His Word. Scientific evolutionists are also standing on faith in their evolutionary theory which they then promote religiously; but they will not admit the fact that it takes far more faith to believe in evolution, than it does to believe in God's Word and His miracles.
Anyone who believes in true science cannot deny these truths that true modern science has discovered, and that those standing on false beliefs are like alcoholics in denial.
Anyone who believes in God will be excited by the evidence that true modern science has revealed.
Those who want to believe that there is no God will continue to stand on the Darwinian Evolution fairy tale ...
as the false evidence that makes them feel confident in their unbelief and rejection of God the Creator.
Those who are Christians but have accepted the lies of evolution must be helped to understand that God's Word is Truth, and that to follow the teachings of atheists is to follow the leadership of the evil one and the doctrines of demons.
Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. Romans 12:1-3
Every Christian needs to see this one!
God Bless you my friends, Bob
right on
ReplyDeleteI really liked this. I shared it with my husband who loves these types of discussions.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Larie
Absolutely spot on, Bob. Thanks so much for this! Science used to be about the observation and examination of the evidence, and then formulating a theory to fit that evidence, but these days (in origins science at least - operational science is another story, and the two should not be confused), it is more about making up a nice comfortable theory (preferably one that denies God, because to accept His existence ultimately means being accountable to Him) and then twisting those facts to fit that theory. Any facts that cannot be so twisted are conveniently swept under the carpet. There is no integrity or honesty in this, and it is not real science. So-called scientists are always trumpeting the conflict between "science and religion," but there is actually no conflict between true science and Biblical Christianity (which is not actually a religion at all, but a relationship).
ReplyDeleteEvolution (which doesn't even warrant the dignity of the title of "theory") is a religious belief, based on a blind faith which has a much less substantial foundation than Biblical faith.
We all have the same evidence. Evolutionists and creationists alike, all handle the same fossils, view the same rock formations, etc. How we view them is the issue, and this is determined by our initial starting point, our worldview. Fossils are not dug up from the ground with a label stuck on them saying "x millions of years old."
Michael Behe and the Intelligent Design crew have done a great deal to argue logically the creation view, and I love the concept of "irreducible complexity" with which the evolutionists cannot argue. However, they fall short of identifying the Creator, and most of them still accept the "billions of years" of the evolutionists. There is danger for the unbeliever in following their line of reasoning because it is a dead end, and will not lead to their salvation. Biblical Creationists are changing people's lives by presenting them with the uncompromising truth of the whole of God's Word, and their need for salvation.
The crux of the matter is that the Creationists are not just emphasising the "how" and "Who" of origins, but the absolute authority of the entirety of the Word of God from Chapter 1 Verse 1 of Book 1! The Gospel of Jesus Christ makes absolutely no logical sense unless you believe that God created all things perfect in the beginning, and that the First Adam's sin brought down God's curse on the creation and death to mankind, and the necessity for the Second Adam to pay the penalty for that sin by the sacrifice of His own blood on the Cross, and thereby opening the gates for the future restoration of all things, and the ultimate defeat of death itself. The Intelligent Design people have no concept of this.
There is more to this than the mere denial of evolution and the acceptance of an intelligent designer behind all that we see.
Any Christian who accepts evolution obviously does not understand the full Gospel message.

Wow: Shoshi, your comments are far superior to anything I might post. I only hope everyone reads this.
ReplyDeleteThe big problem for me when I write on evolution is that there are just so many potential rabbit trails and mostly where I lack knowledge.
But your knowledge is straight to the point and with authority. It is clear that you speak on the authority of the Creator.
The point of my post was to make it clear that evolution is demonstrably foolish as shown by molecular biology ...
I believe that the intelligent design line of reasoning is pandering to evolution in a way that is confusing and gives unwarranted credibility to evolutionary thought. It is also confusing on the most important issues of Creator and Savior.
It doesn't get better than this.
God bless you my friend, Bob
Evolution is not a belief it is an understanding. You dont believe in Mathematics you understand it. My scientist says this.
ReplyDeletePersonally I dont believe in Evolution I also dont understand it. LOl
That scientists should understand rather than believe in evolution is a true statement; though my experience has been that most evolutionists believe and promote evolution with the religious dogmatic certainty of an evangelist.
ReplyDeleteWhen you study the origins of the theory of evolution, it becomes clear that the primary motivation driving Darwin and his associates was: they were on a mission to discredit God and His Word. They did not want to be bound to the restrictions they found in scripture. Their preconceived atheistic notions were guiding them and were foundational in the forming the theory of evolution.
The idea that evolution is an understanding like mathematics is admirable, but not reality. Since evolution is a false premise ... it cannot be discovered like mathematics. Circular reasoning is false science. Evolution is "Doctrines of Demons"
Most evolutionists have given up on trying to understand ... they have evolved to an understanding of declare and then discredit and marginalize anyone who does not agree with them. They cannot prove it, so they have forced it, in a way similar to how radical Islam is forced around the world. They have also tried this same tactic with the man-made global warming myth. Any scientist who does not agree with them must remain silent until tenured ... or it is off with his head.
Some quotes:
"evolution is a fact, not a theory" Carl Sagan, Cosmos
"in the present study the factual truth of organic evolution is taken as established" George Gaylord Simpson, Harvard Professor of Paleontology
"the first point to make about Darwin's theory is that it is no longer a theory, but a fact. No serious scientist would deny the fact that evolution has occurred, just as he would not deny the fact that the earth goes around the sun"" Sir Julian Huxley
"there is no rival hypothesis except the outworn and completely refuted idea of special creation, now retained only by the ignorant, the dogmatic, and the prejudiced." H.H. Newman Evolution: Genetics and eugenics p. 51.
I must say, I can't find anything much more ignorant, dogmatic, or prejudiced than that. No need for scientific discovery here. I have hundreds more ignorant, dogmatic, and unscientific quotes but I hope this makes my point.
I will repeat, I have taken by faith and need no further evidence that this is absolute fact: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." The evidence is everywhere, but regardless ... this I know is TRUTH. All men will either humble themselves to this truth or suffer the consequences.
God bless you friends, Bob
This is brilliant, Bob. I don't know how people can ignore such strong evidence.
ReplyDeleteI'm a 4th grade school teacher, and I've found another video that I believe makes a stronger connection with younger audiences.. Check this out and let me know what you think:
