Creation - Gospel Basics

 


“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.”  (Genesis 1:1)

 

I can think of many reasons why a Christian should be a Bible-believing creationist and not try to include any form of evolution in his basic thinking. Let me briefly mention several of them:

First, God is omnipotent and omniscient.  To deny his infinite knowledge and ability to create anything for nothing, is to deny His Deity.

Second, evolution is bad science. According to the Institute for Creation Science (ICR), the scientific evidence does not support evolution. Evolution is a non-testable concept and therefore not even a proper scientific theory. It violates the basic laws of science and probability. There is no hint in the fossil record that any basic category of plant or animal has ever changed into any other.

Furthermore, evolution has evil fruits. The failed concepts of racism, fascism, Marxism, imperialism, etc., are all founded on evolutionary principles, as are the original concepts of Freudianism, humanism, abortion, homosexuality, drug use, etc.

The Christian world view is compromised. Are we here as God's stewards of life and the earth, with the ministry of pointing mankind back to Him, or are we the mere products of nature, with only personal satisfaction, survival, and reproduction mattering?

The Christian should also recognize that evolution is bad Scripture. Belief in long-age evolution requires twisting of Scriptural references throughout the Bible.

Because it doesn't match with Scripture, evolution is bad theology. If evolution is true, then death preceded sin and cannot be its penalty, and therefore Christ's death did not pay that penalty. The concept of billions of years of evolutionary meandering and extinction is inconsistent with God's omnipotence, omniscience, loving nature, and even His grace.

Lastly, one's personal relationship to God is related to origins. The Bible teaches us to worship God for His creative majesty. I would have a difficult time in prayer if I didn't believe in creation and wasn't able to praise Him as Creator. Our life's work should be to fulfill God's purpose in creation, for we were created as beings on whom He could shower His love and grace, and respond to Him in reciprocal love and obedient service.

Let us not neglect to acknowledge Him as Creator, Author of Scripture, and Lord and Savior of our words and deeds.

Jesus Is A Sure Foundation

 

For ten years our relationship was horrible. We couldn't stand to look at each other, let alone be around each other. Satan wanted to keep it that way because he knew that God had a ministry for us. He tried for a long time to keep that from happening. God has brought us from a long way together. We went through some dreadful experiences with each other. But to God be the glory. What Satan has tried to stop, we rebuked him in the name of Jesus, and is now able to tell our story and to help someone out. We hope that the experiences and prayers in this book will be a blessing to you. We are ready to be used by God in any way possible. We love God and the people He brings our way. This is not our testimony but God's testimony.

Every Generation God Say’s Will Wage A War with Amalek

We are supposed to know the “times and seasons.” To understand the prophetic times and seasons we are living in, we must be on God’s calendar. It will show that we are now entering a season of War and the Tribulation is just a few years away. It is time to repent!

Our calendar is based only on the sun. The Islamic calendar is based only on the moon. God’s calendar is based on both. If we don’t know the seasons, we will be plucking at planting time and planting at plucking time! Every generation God say’s will wage a war with Amalek. This generational war is NOW! The Heavens declare it! We need to recognize it!
