Every time I turn on the Discovery channel or read a magazine article, I'm bombarded with liberal anti-biblical propaganda. Maybe I shouldn't expect the media, which is predominantly run by liberal non-believers, to uphold biblical truth. Unfortunately, many Christian churches, colleges, and publications don't do a lot better. I recently got to meet a creation science speaker named Russ Miller, who also spoke at Candlelight yesterday. It is incredible to hear his stories of the people who are angry at him or refuse to let him speak at their gathering. He is not welcome to speak at most churches, in fact. So you might ask: what could he possibly be talking about that would make people so upset? He simply exposes evolution for what it is and holds to a literal biblical creation. At first, it may seem like a petty issue to be upset about, but evolution aims to destroy the foundations of Christianity. In order for evolution to be true, there would have to be millions of years of death and suffering before the fall of man, which doesn't agree with God's pronouncement that everything He had created was good. Besides that, evolution has been referred to as 'science' for the last 60 or so years. It is not measurable nor repeatable, which puts it outside the realm of science and into the category of a belief about origins. Creation is also a belief about origins. Both are ways to interpret the evidence, one starting with the assumption that God created everything and the other presupposing that there is no God. Unfortunately, many people claim Christianity, but want to make it fit with what secular 'science' is saying. They won't just trust the Bible for what it says about God creating creatures as they are in 6 literal 24 hour days. As a result, they try to force evolution and millions of years into the Bible, where it does not belong. Without millions of years evolution simply isn't possible. That's actually a strange statement, because the chances of it happening even over millions of years is practically 0. So why is this presented unashamedly as fact in our public schools and media? We need to inform people, especially children, about the fallacies of evolution and how to think through the issue of origins biblically. Don't compromise with the lies that is falsely called science!

AuthorWe are normal people who believe that God would have us serve Him in Brazil. We are saddened by the existence of people who do not have access to the gospel due to their location and language. We want to live among such a people group and plant a church among them, shepherding the believers as they grow to maturity. Archives
