There are two questions that are frequently asked regarding the Flood. The first one is, “If there really was a global flood, where did all that water go? The second is, “How could there be a worldwide flood? We do not have enough water to cover the whole earth above the tallest mountains. These arguments sound good on the surface until one dives a bit deeper. The answer to this question is amazingly simple yet well-known (and even Christian) scholars have never thought...
Read MoreThe Star of Bethlehem – My Perspective
Our study of the Star of Bethlehem begins with the wise men coming to Jerusalem (Matthew 2:1). The wise men came from the East, so I am assuming they are either from Persia or the Babylonian area. In Matthew 2:2, the wise men inquire concerning the whereabouts of the King of the Jews, because they saw His star the night Jesus was born. Why were they looking for a star? I believe they were looking because of the prophecy made by Balaam in Numbers 24:17, 19a, about the...
Read MoreThe Miracle of the Incarnation
One of the greatest doctrines, and greatest mysteries, of the Christian faith is the incarnation of Jesus Christ, in which our holy, transcendent Creator took on human flesh and became man. Scripture clearly teaches this truth, and we accept it by faith, yet those of us with inquiring minds still have many questions. Henry Morris, in his book, Biblical Creationism, discusses some of these questions at length. The following ideas are condensations of his suggestions. While...
Read MoreWhat is a Day?
How long is a day? Now this might seem like a silly question; however, some people believe the days of Creation that we read about in the book of Genesis in the Bible are long periods of time, not real, ordinary, 24 hour days. Believing that the millions of years that evolution teaches are true, they try to change how long a day of the Bible is to fit with these long ages. Some think the Bible teaches that each day of Creation can be a thousand years …“But, beloved, be not...
Read MoreTheistic 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...
