Theistic Evolution – Death Before Sin
Many Christians compromise with modern science by adopting Theistic Evolution – that God used millions of years of evolution as His method of creating. Besides the obvious fact that God said He created it, a huge theological problem exists. According to Theistic Evolution, we have death before sin. In fact, millions of years of death preceded and produced Adam. However, the Bible says death came into the creation as the result of Adam & Eve’s sin. These are...
Read MoreIce Age and the Flood
To explain the Ice Age, think Flood. Post-flood oceans were likely quite warm, due largely to undersea vulcanism. Warm, moist air masses from these hot oceans dumped massive precipitation over the emerging cooler continents. Near the colder center of the continents and in the higher altitudes, tremendous amounts of snow would have accumulated leading to the Ice Age. The oceans finally cooled allowing the ice to recede. According to meteorologist, Michael Oard, in his books,...
Read MoreSurvival of the Fittest?
Natural Selection, or “survival of the fittest,” is the mechanism which is usually proposed to drive evolution. It seems obvious that those organisms, which are more “fit” in a particular environment or under particular conditions, will be those that survive. However, by itself, natural selection has no power to “create” anything. At best, all it can do is “choose” between organisms that already exist. Thus, it has no power to explain the origin of a new trait. Furthermore,...
Read MoreEvolution and Humanism
Humanism is a world religion based in atheistic naturalism. It asserts that the universe is self existing and not created, people being the result of an evolutionary process. Since there is no God, then there are no absolutes. Therefore what is right and wrong is determined by subjective opinions (relative morality). This philosophy not only led to the holocausts of Aborigines in Australia as well as the Jews in Germany under Adolph Hitler, but also to the current holocaust...
Read MoreDino Puberty Blues – Excerpt
Nanotyrannus was a bit like a Tyrannosaurus rex, except it had 17 teeth in its lower jaw, while a T. rex had 12 lower jaw teeth and a less elongated skull. However, now it seems that Nanotyrannus should never have been identified as a separate species at all. Leading dinosaur paleontologist Dr Jack Horner of Montana State University says that Nanotyrannus was in fact a juvenile T. rex, whose skull changed dramatically as it matured. The transition to adulthood also...
Read MoreChinese Writing Tells of Genesis
Did you know that many ancient Chinese words have their roots in Genesis? These ancient words are made up of pictures. For example, the word for tempter is made up of pictures representing a garden, a serpent, and a woman. Amazingly, the word for boat is 8 mouths in a vessel. This reminds us of accounts of Adam and Eve’s fall and the 8 individuals who survived the flood of Noah’s days. Their culture had a creation base, but, sadly it was lost to religious...
Read MoreTropical Oasis
A short distance outside of Jackson Hole, Wyoming is a small town of Kelly. Approximately a mile away, following the road to Slide Lake, is a small pond. At first glance, it appears to be just an ordinary pond with weed covered edges. However, closer inspection reveals something quite out of the ordinary. Many pockets of bubbles arise throughout one end of the pond. Stick your little toe into the water and you discover the water is warm. Warm water is flowing out of the...
Read MoreFly Genome Puzzles Evolutionary Scientists
Psalm 119:73 “Your hands have made me and fashioned me; give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.” Genes carry the biological information to make specific living things. Evolution says that simpler living things evolved first and more complex life evolved later. This would lead us to believe that more complex living things would have developed more genes. The creation approach suggests that each creature was designed with the genetic material...
Read MoreStone Age Artifacts in Iron Age Tombs
Archaeologists are puzzled by what has recently been found. Stone age artifacts have been found in Iron Age tombs. This is a conundrum for an evolutionary worldview, but how about a creationist worldview. Check out a recent interview with Frank Sherwin of the Institute for Creation Research on Issues, Etc. Listen to the Interview on the Issues, Etc. website at: http://issuesetc.org/2010/06/16/5580/ From the Archives of the Issues, Etc. website: http://issuesetc.org/ Take a...
Read MoreDragon Fossil?
Dracorex – The dinosaur that looks like a dragon For many years creationists have been making connections between dinosaurs and dragons. However, dragons are often portrayed as having fanciful features like wings, bizarre horns and claws, and the ability to breathe fire. Enter the Dragon Say hello to Dracorex hogwartsia. It’s more eye-catching than most dinosaurs because it’s what most people imagine dragons looking like. Yet this is a real animal! The nearly complete...
