If you believe the Bible can you believe evolution?

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

If you believe the Bible can you believe evolution?

Nope. It is like placing the Creator under the constraints of His creation. All of Christian theology colapses under that premise. It makes the creation lord over the Creator. That's not Christian theology.

[Sensei Ern]

THe fall of man, and inherent sin nature requires that Adam and Eve were the first two humans, and that no other humans came from apes, else there would possibly be a blood line of sinless people in the world. A sinless people would not have a need for a savior. Nor, would a sinless people ever die since sin causes death.

Also, if there were any sinless people, they would have perished in the flood, since Noah's lineage is directly traced through Adam. If God somehow killed a sinless people, then He would be unjust.

So then, you cannot have evolution and God's plan of salvation.

Jesus is the only person who remained sinless throughout his entire life.

Then how did he die since he never had sinned, nor had a sin nature? He gave up His life when God placed on Him the sins of the world.

"If you believe the Bible can you believe evolution? "

Not a chance!

Evolution, and the "big bang" are totally incompatible with what God states in the Bible.

I'm always amazed at folks the will take the word of atheists, who are the ones propelling evolution and the "big bang" over what God states and still claim to be "Christians".

Two opposing theories can NOT be true at the same time. Either God is the liar or mere fallible mortals are lying ... . The Bible states God cannot lie and ALL is God breathed - not just some of it or what you selectively agree with. ALL of it and the evidence when viewed objectively supports exactly what He states in the Bible.

It's also not an "interpretation issue". The Hebrew is quite clear on seven literal twenty-four hour days and btw, we are made in His image and He is NO "ape".

There is no rational way to reconcile evolution or the "big bang" with the Bible. They are diametrically opposing theories.

Some say yes.

Its hard to understand but for some it is possible.

A different question may be...

Will you go to heaven if you believe evolution?
