“I think that evolution is the best current explanation as to HOW God made what we see around us.”
In all honesty, please, do you have any idea what you are saying? Or are you just talking for the sake of talk?
Please read Romans Chapter 1.
There is no evolution in there. Isn’t it amazing that the Bible is the worlds all time best seller, and yet within the first 5 WORDS of the Bible, mankind and his pride begin the quest to disprove, belittle and demean what God said in those 5 words.
“In the beginning, God created...”. If you cannot handle the magnitude of the term “created”, then you do not believe with all your heart, soul strength and mind. You either believe it wholly or you do not - no middle ground, no grey area, and there is certainly no evolution required to help, support, uphold, validate, justify, or to make you feel better about yourself - that God needs in order for His creation to have come to being. Can you handle these words “...God spoke them into being...”? Can you comprehend this? ‘Spoken into being’ doesn’t need the help of anything, let alone a feeble attempt in adding evolution. “O you of little faith”.....are the words once spoken....
I do believe those first 5 words, honestly and deeply. That being said, only a fool could deny that micro-evolution happens all the time around us. It is micro-evolution that causes bacteria to become resistant to anti-biotics.
However, I do not believe in macro-evolution. I do not believe that we humans came from single cell organisms and I believe the first man and woman were created in God’s image and the world as we know it was created in 6 days, in the order Genesis lists.
I don’t know what that makes me on the evolution-creationist scale, but I am what I am and can back up why I believe what I believe without a whole lot of thinking.
All that being said...... there is pre-Biblical history alluded to in the Bible that is not recorded in Genesis. I can’t help but ponder if some elements that others attribute to proof of evolution come from this time.
I would not presume to say that I understand WHY or HOW God did this.
I do believe that evolution is the best current explanation as to HOW God did this.
If you do not agree with me, that is fine. Why are you so agitated with what I wrote? Perhaps you need to examine your beliefs.
